Yes I'm part of the Beento Tribe: My Experience in Egypt

So ya girl just got back from Egypt and it was...(actually there isn't a word in English that I can find that can explain my feelings). I see J has been working hard on this blog while I was out of the country and hopefully he won't be too mad at this non-PM movement post but it must be spread to my people!

My professor and now "intellectual father" Dr. Carr gave a very intriguing statement on the first of class in Cairo and I hope you apply it to life like I have everyday since.

"This is what happens when black folk have no distracts!"

I didn't get the magnitude of this statement until I saw example after example of what people of AFRICAN ancestry contributed to the ancient world.  We did so much more than people around the world would like to give us credit for.  I don't need anyone to tell me what the Greeks or Romans invented because Egyptians created it first!  

You would think this "enlightenment" would make me more militant or angry with "a race of a lighter hue" but honestly I'm not; I'm at peace because I am no longer confused.  Confusion and fear is what keeps us from achieving the greatness we are destined to obtain.  One of my fellow scholars said "here (Africa) fear has no place, the Egyptians made mistakes but they kept trying".

I hope this help you reclaim you African self and make through those days when you don't!

I leave you with an Egyptian saying in Metu Neter (an ancient Egyptian language)
