African Indians

Compared to the fate of Africans of the Americas, the history of Africans in India is still largely unknown to the west.

There are small communities like Jambur scattered along India’s west coast. They are the home to the descendants of Africans who arrived on theIndian continent thousands of years ago. Many of them travelled there as mercenaries, merchants and sailors.

Sea trade between east and southern Africa, and Gujarat in India was established more than 2,000 years ago.

It was not for a few hours or just some visits now and then. It was continuous, for hours and hours, days after days, months after months, for 2.5 years now!

The question whether this was coincidence or a private pastime of Bill Gates has now been answered by Gates’ decision to put all his money – and that of Warren Buffet, too – into allegedly fighting diseases.

The Meaning of Hugo Chavez

By William Loren Katz

To the sputtering fury of a Bush administration who has repeatedly conspired with Venezuela’s elite to drive Hugo Chavez from power, the Black Indian President of this oil-rich nation has scored a decisive 59% victory over a recall effort.

Chavez now sits more comfortably than ever atop a fourth of the world oil supplies—equal to that of Iraq—and he supplies a fifth of US oil needs. In addition, he is current leader of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, or OPEC. George W. Bush would prefer his friends in Saudi Arabia rather than Chavez set global oil prices.

Black African Pharmacopoeia — Kushitic Tetracycline

By Ogu-Eji-Ofo Anu

For more than two decades, a group of researchers led by George Armelagos an anthropologist from Emroy University Atlanta Georgia have studied bones dated to between A.D. 350 and 550 from Kush (Nubia), another ancient African kingdom south of ancient Egypt along the Nile River.

The researchers are puzzled by the bones of these ancient Kushites because they contain traces of the antibiotic tetracycline. These traces of tetracycline have been found in more than 90 percent of the bones the team examined, including those of 24-month-old infants. The researchers also believe that the tetracycline protected the Kushites from bone infections, as all the bones examined are infection free

Nigeria to develop nuclear power, says Obasanjo

By Ted Iwere, United Nations, New York

“Nuclear energy has become a veritable source for socio-economic development and a reliable source for electricity generation. We note in particular the global trend for the utilisation of nuclear technology for the generation of electricity, agricultural development, human health and environmental development, especially for developing countries.

In the context of this development and the enormous energy crisis that confronts us in Nigeria, my government has decided to inaugurate the Board of the Nigeria Atomic Energy Commission (NAEC). With the inauguration of the Board, our quest for energy self-sufficiency has begun.”

HISTORICAL APARTHEID

In case there are some who may think the above rendering is just some “Afrocentric fabrication” it is worth noting that all of this information has existed in ancient writings for thousands of years.

For example, most of what the contemporary world knows and refers to concerning the era of the ancient Persians and Greeks has come almost exclusively from the historian Herodotus of Halicarnassus (Asiatic Greece) who lived some 2500 years ago. It is the standard accepted record.

East African Coastal Historical Towns. Asiatic or African?

Jacob L. Kimaryo*

Abstract

The East African coast is dotted with ruined and extant historical towns of significant cultural importance. Albeit the builders and inhabitants of these towns are known to have been the Swahili, who these historic people were in terms of their origin has been a matter of serious debate since the beginning of the 20th century. So far two perspectives have emerged out of this debate, which respectively advocate for Asiatic and African ancestries of the historic Swahili.

The Slaving History of the British Empire

By Nwa-Amadi Omeife Jideofo

Slavery is an everlasting stain on the history of the British Empire and this story is one which has long antecedents. The earliest recorded account of life in the British Isles came from Roman sources. Rome conquered the British Isle and ruled it between 43 and 453 AD. The Romans enslaved virtually the entire population of Brittany (England) and the other Islands that fell within their grasp. They exploited their slaves in plantations, mines and used them for trade speculations.

‘My ancestor traded in human misery’

Sorry is often said to be the hardest word but Andrew Hawkins felt compelled to apologise to a crowd of thousands of Africans.

His regret was not for his own actions but offered on behalf of his ancestor, who traded in African slaves 444 years ago.

Sir John Hawkins was a 16th Century English shipbuilder, merchant, pirate and slave trader.

He first captured natives of Sierra Leone in 1562 and sold them in the Caribbean. His cousin was Sir Francis Drake, who joined him on expeditions.
