Black Panther; Wakanda Forever Mines African Spirituality
The eagerly anticipated sequel to the 2018 blockbuster film Black Panther premiered last week and from early reports, it will be another hit. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever keeps true to the important narrative of a predominantly Black/African cast and a story that is told from a Black/African perspective/point of view.
This time around though, the movie also brings into perspective another people who have also been omitted in Hollywood. Those people are the indigenous tribe’s of Central and South America. The evidence is clear; Hollywood is finding success mining Indigenous Spirituality.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is centered around three basic themes. The first is paying homage to Chadwick Boseman, the original Black Panther who passed away in real life due to cancer. The theme of most Marvel and superhero movies has been fighting, killing, and visual effects.
However, due to the popularity of Chadwick Boseman as the Black Panther, Marvel and other producers had no choice but to use Wakanda Forever as a memorial of sorts. They knew that it’s what the audience would appreciate and they did.
The second theme was America’s intent on getting control of Vibranium, the most powerful metal in the Marvel Universe and the source of Wakanda’s advanced technology. How ironic is it that America actually represents the white man, even if most people don’t recognize it.
The biggest film to use a similar narrative was Avatar, in which the heroes in that film were also Indigenous beings protecting their spiritual home-world against invaders. At this point, white supremacists don’t care anyway. Remember when Trump said to a interviewer, “What, you don’t think we kill people too?”
The third theme involved Wakanda’s conflict with Atlantis, the so-called ancient lost city that many people believe still exists somewhere under the Atlantic Ocean. Marvel depicts the people of Atlantis as the indigenous people of Central and South America, who may or may not be the Aztec, the Mayans, or the Olmec.
Marvel portrays Atlantis as having a similar origin story to that of Wakanda. They say that thousands of years ago, a similar Meteor to the one that brought Vibranium to Africa, brought Vibranium to Atlantis.
They harnessed the meteor’s power and used it to enrich their society. When disaster struck Atlantis and the city sunk under the sea, Vibranium is what helped them to adopt and survive in isolation under the Atlanti ocean.
Similar to their use of Africans, Hollywood doesn’t seem to have any interest in including indigenous Americans and portraying them in a positive light other than mining their indigenous Spiritually.
Wakanda Forever is essentially a three-way conflict; Wakanda and Atlantis against each other and both against America under the guise of the United Nations. In all cases, arrogance and the desire to gain or maintain control over a powerful natural resource brings about a lot of death and destruction.
Wakanda and Atlantis are fictional places; however, both concepts are infused with indigenous mythology that are present in real-life African and Central American Spirituality. Some might say that there is no danger in Hollywood mining these cultural resources and making them popular.
However, some African traditionalists point out that Spiritual warfare was essential in Europe’s colonization of Africa and the brainwashing of African people’s minds into believing in Christianity.
Therefore, these movies are only a further whitewashing of African Spirituality that has been deemed to be useless already.
White Supremacy Will Never End
White Supremacy will never end until humanity adopts a more ethical ideology of reality than those offered by Religion and Science. White Supremacy is the product of the two generally accepted existential belief systems in use today, which are Religion and Science.
Religion is defined as a set of Spiritual beliefs that a group of people have concerning their origins and the origins of creation. Before the white man accepted Christianity as his core belief, he was a Pagan, meaning he held many religious beliefs including the belief that kings and leaders were gods themselves. However, upon taking control of the Jewish religion and creating the New Testament of Jesus Christ, they completely inserted themselves into the Jewish creation story.
They then claimed that since Jesus came to his own, the Jews, and the Jews did not accept his message; Jesus then gave permission to anyone who believed in God through Him, to get to Heaven. They moved their Spiritual headquarters to Rome and declared that they were now the chosen people of the Jewish God. This brand of psychological White Supremacy is so powerful that even Black people today worship a white Jesus and live subservient to white Christians.
Science is defined as knowledge in all its various forms. The acquisition of knowledge therefore has to undergo a process of approval because reality is Subjective. In other words, 1+1 only equals 2 in theory and not absolute physical proportion. Science theorizes that humanity originated in Afraka making the original humans Black. This is not necessarily a plus for Black people because Science also accepts the theoretical concept of Evolution as its core belief.
The theory of Evolution teaches that Life originated by the chance of Nature over Time. In this process, Life evolved from complex molecules in Clay mud then evolved into single cell organisms in the Ocean millions of years ago. Over time, these organisms evolved into amphibious creatures that crawled out of the ocean and developed Lungs to breathe Air on land. Some creatures also developed Legs, feathers, and wings and began to fly while some stayed grounded on land and developed into animals. In short, Evolution states that humans developed from Monkeys.
White Supremacists believe that they are different from other races of people because during the process of their evolution, they were fortunate to mix with Neanderthals while others didn’t. This Neanderthal mix is what gives them their superior genetic and intellectual character. The theory of Evolution is flawed in many ways but since it supports their unethical beliefs of racial superiority, white Supremacists are happy to use it to corrupt the development of humanity.
Religious and Scientific theories of racial superiority are both being used by the white man to maintain psychological control over humanity. Logic would suggest that based on his domineering nature, the white man should have wiped out all the other races of people long ago in order to eliminate competition and to solidify his position as God’s chosen people. However, there is one thing that everyone is missing and that is the power of the human Conscience, which was installed in us by the Great Spirit that is the Universe and not an egotistical god or the chance of Evolution.
Conscience defies the religious belief by whites that they are the chosen people of a god when they are as ignorant of their true origin as everyone else. They are still susceptible to the same pitfalls of life that everyone else is and they still suffer disease and death like everyone else. Conscience defies the scientific belief by whites that they are a genetic and intellectually superior race based on Evolution because the more they dig into the history of ancient races, it’s the more they are discovering that our ancestors had technology that eludes their understanding. They also studied human DNA and discovered that African DNA is more complex than theirs.
The solution for us is to abandon the religious and scientific theories that support White Supremacist beliefs. It will render those beliefs ineffective to everyone except them. Many races are doing so now by returning to their traditional Spiritual beliefs. Some are using their religious beliefs to engage in their own quest for racial superiority but we must not follow their examples because Black Supremacy would be just as insane and unjust as white supremacy, Arab supremacy, Asian supremacy or any other racial supremacy quest.
Black people must adopt a Spiritual belief system that gives precedence to human conscience instead of human desire. A belief system that is based on an ethical creation story and not one that is based on the self-serving desires of a worshiper seeking God. A belief system that values the whole of life and not just humanity. The only Spiritual belief system that can and will defeat white supremacy and the propensity of all races to engage in racial superiority ideology is the HERU Interface.

Never Forget the Tutsi Genocide in Rwanda
Never forget the Tutsi genocide in Rwanda because not only is it a valuable conscience building lesson for all Afrakans, if we ignore and forget it, we are bound to repeat it in our various countries and cultures.
April, 2019 marks the 25th anniversary of the worst genocide in modern Afrakan history, which resulted in the deaths of nearly one million Tutsi Rwandans at the hands of their fellow Hutu neighbors. It is of utmost importance to all Black and Afrakan people to never forget an event of such magnitude because if we do, we will never learn to become more conscientious people, its accounting will be altered, denied and forgotten, and because of those circumstances, we will undoubtedly repeat it over and over.
As westerners of Afrakan descent, we may never be able to understand the tribal nature of our genetic homeland and many Afrakans may even be quick to point that out if we dare to project any sort of moral superiority over the many and various cultures on the Afrakan continent. Therefore, we can only seek commonality with Afrakans through the fact that we are all human beings who want the same things in life, which are; mutual respect among men and freedom to live according to the historical ideologies that provide comfort and purpose to life.
With that said, it is well documented that the Tutsi genocide is the result of extreme tribalism between the prominent tribes of the region, the Hutu and the Tutsi. We recognize that the conflict began out of a lack of tribal respect on both sides. Some say it is due to deep colonial brainwashing that saw centuries of divide and conquer tactics at the hands of European powers. Some say no, its jealousy over physical features and Hutus believing that the Tutsi are East Afrakan invaders who don’t belong in the region.
Whatever the reason was, it was obvious that the level of conscience among the people had sunk to extremely low levels and when conscience is suppressed ideology will rise to take over the mind of anyone, including preachers. Before the killing frenzy began, years of animosity had slowly turned into racial hatred. Hutu politicians, Pastors, and their supporters were openly using hatred to spread propaganda until the general public was willing to kill without remorse.
Over approximately 100 days it is estimated that close to one million Tutsi were massacred throughout Rwanda. Gangs of Hutu soldiers, and civilians roamed the streets killing Tutsi men, women, and children wherever they found them hiding. No sanctuary was safe as they kicked down the doors of homes, schools, and churches to hack people to death with machetes. United Nations peacekeepers, who were stationed in the country due to prior tribal conflicts, did there best to save as many people as they could in the beginning but their calls for further help were ignored. It clearly reveals the hypocrisy of some so called morally responsible world powers.
25 years after the Tutsi genocide, it has been largely forgotten in the Western world because most of our leaders never gave a damn in the first place. When it is brought up in terms of accountability, most Hutu are remorseful but a small number of them remain defiant and are actively working to change the narrative. Like the German holocaust deniers, they spread misinformation claiming that only a few hundred Tutsi were killed or it was the Tutsi who orchestrated the whole thing, sacrificing their own tribes’ people to gain sympathy from the international community.
At Afro-Conscious Media (ACM), we do not subscribe to conspiracies. We were alive and followed the news when the genocide was happening and we’ve heard neutral 3rd party accounting from people such as Roméo Dallaire, commander of the UN forces who was on the ground in Rwanda during the genocide.
Most Tutsi survivors of the genocide express that they are still being haunted by the trauma of the event. Some say they have forgiven the Hutu in order to try to forget and move on while others have simply done their best to forget by building happy memories to suppress the bad ones.
This is the way the human mind works; we compartmentalize trauma in order to protect our sanity but while it is comforting, there is a danger in forgetting because over time those same petty differences, be they tribal or racial, will inevitably return if they are not dealt with properly and commemorated in a conscientious way.
ACM will always commemorate the Tutsi genocide, not to rehash the trauma of the event but to encourage conscious thought as to what will happen when we as Black and Afrakan people continue to engage in colorism, tribalism, and racism.
Robert Mugabe Deserves Respect
Robert Mugabe is a AfRAkan hero!
In the early hours of Nov 15th, 2017, news broke that Robert Mugabe, president of Zimbabwe had been removed from office by his country’s army. The details of his ouster are not well known, however, Army leaders in Zimbabwe are refusing to call it a Coup. Instead they say Mugabe is safely under house arrest as part of a military action to root out criminal elements in the government. Whatever the outcome of the situation turns out to be I think it is safe to say that Mugabe’s rule of Zimbabwe is over.
Many people are no doubt rejoicing at Mugabe’s demise, some inside Zimbabwe, other regions of Afraka, and especially in the Western world. All three areas hate him for three different reasons, none of which are valid if he is to be judged as a man who loves his race, his country and Afraka; his personal imperfections notwithstanding.
Mugabe rose to power in the 1980s as part of a rebel uprising against foreign influence in Zimbabwe; namely White rule. They gained independence from Britain by force, changed the country’s name from Rhodesia to Zimbabwe and held elections, which Mugabe won. The country immediately began to experience turmoil as the losing parties began to fight back physically as well as through economic sabotage.
Mugabe’s main opposition came from the other rebel groups, which helped to free Zimbabwe from British rule. They felt they should have been rewarded with a share of power. When they realized that they were double-crossed they began to stoke tribal conflicts within the country. They also sought help from Western backers who steered them away from Socialist ideologies and trained them to fight Mugabe using Human Rights and Ethics.
The Whites of Zimbabwe were the most outraged. Although their population was small, they owned most of the land and commercial wealth of Zimbabwe. (I guess Ethics are only reserved for the so-called civilized) They immediately began to move their money out of the country and with the help of Western financial agencies and governments began a covert operation to bankrupt the Zimbabwe government.
Mugabe saw all the unethical things that Western governments were doing to sabotage Zimbabwe so he lashed out. He taunted Britain and the Queen as well as to implement a land seizure policy against White farmers. Many White farmers were killed in the process as poor Afrakans invaded White owned farms and took over; never mind they didn’t have the expertise or know how to farm themselves.
Throughout his rule, Mugabe fought crippling Western sanctions that sunk Zimbabwe into financial obscurity. National pride eventually eroded into despair as the quality of life for everyday Zimbabweans fell year after year. Mugabe developed a dependence on financial help from his original backers in China, which only sunk the country further in debt. Then he was labeled a Dictator when he refused to step aside and let someone else rule.
Was Mugabe power hungry or was he afraid that open Democracy would open the doors to foreign influence? The fact that the country’s opposition leaders were groomed in the West is the proof of the latter. Revolution is one thing, governing in a fair, equitable, and accountable manner is another. Such a task requires deep understanding of Life and reality, a quality that is also absent from all world leaders.
In essence, Mugabe failed as a leader because he is susceptible to the mechanisms of Life just like Europeans. That is, his personal Desires grew to corrupt his Conscience. He grew to believe that only his solutions could guide Zimbabwe for all time. His final misstep was to begin grooming his wife to take leadership of his political party as well as the government, a move that angered his comrades so they acted in his removal from power.
Why is Robert Mugabe a hero? Mugabe is a hero because he attempted to show AfRAkans a glimpse at true freedom.
Europeans live by the motto “Live Free or Die”, a motto that they reserve for themselves. Indigenous people of the planet have been colonized and put under subjugations to them. Freedom has to be fought for but even when it is achieved physically, the economic chains are enhanced and secured. (Ask Haiti about that) The result is that most former colonies exist in a state of false independence to enrich the homeland.
Never let dumb newscasters or political experts brain wash you with the narrative that Mugabe ruined his country. Mugabe was not perfect. He did not always govern using Fairness, Equity, and Accountability but he is the only Afrakan leader who dared to break the chains of colonial influence and for that he deserves respect.
Sad Emotions and Losing a Loved One
Sad Emotions and Losing a Loved One
by Professor MOmOh, The Dohgon University of Thought, 08-24-2017
How do you deal with the sad emotions when a loved one dies?
What you have to know is that you are also going to die when your time comes along. When that times comes, if you were a good, clean, TRUTHFUL and sincere person, you will not be overcome by the fear of death. You will appreciate going to a different universe where those that you’ll meet will welcome you and your presence among their experiences.
That universe is the Spiritual or DARK Universe, and you will be welcome there forever. You will experience the peace, harmony and joy that those who have gone before you already participate in. Therefore, always be kind, honest and generous to others who will become very important in approving the kindness that you have demonstrated about your presence on Earth.
Know that everything you do towards kindness is recorded, and the evidence becomes very clear that you are a kind and generous person. Your kindness follows you with Spirituality. So even when you die and become a Spirit, you will continue to enjoy that kindness with other Spirits. Therefore, kindness is not anything new to you. It is something that has existed within you even when you were a physical person.
The edict of kindness that you have demonstrated will live with you as a Spiritual being. You, as a physical person, were very intelligent to maintain a Spiritual quality that has continued to dwell within you.
No one will destroy that edict that you have demonstrated. In fact, people must know that an edict of kindness is a condition that emerges with everyone at birth. It is not imposed on people at the time of their existence as a physical person, but it is a quality that we are all born with. We must follow this quality all the time, not just assume that it will come to us by chance.
It is worthy to know that Spirituality does not come to you when you are dead. It’s there all the time. You must be comfortable being sincere, honest and TRUTHFUL because it is a part of you. If there are people who do not want you to express those qualities, then you have to leave them alone and find a way to express them through others who sincerely need you to be as good as you are. You will find that your good attitude is welcome by those who are Spiritually evolving.
Now is the time, in the physical world, to know that you have to be acCOUNTable for everything you do as a person. This is because when you become a non-physical being, you will become either a ghost or a Spirit. And it’s always better to become a Spirit than a ghost.
As a Spirit, you are always very secure to have continuity as a Spiritual being.
But when you become a ghost, you will never ascend to the quality of goodness that you never had as a physical being. Since you never had the good and clean qualities of someone that will become a Spirit, you will continue to suffer when you become a ghost. As a result, you will suffer with what you did or didn’t suffer from as a physical being. When you become a ghost, you will always suffer from what you did wrong as a physical being.
But, as a Spiritual being, you will never suffer from any of the tragedies of a ghost. You are now ready to exist in another world that is set to elevate you to the Kingdom of Goodness. That Kingdom is what people call the Kingdom of ‘God’. If you happen to go to that Kingdom, it means that everything that you did on Earth was full of good, honor and honesty. That Kingdom is where you will live forever. This means you will enjoy the peacefulness and stability that longevity offers.
But are you going to live forever?
Yes you will, and you will live in either a pleasant way or in a very horrible way. This is why people always talk about “hell”. Those who are wicked on Earth will visit hell, where they will burn and burn and burn. We have to realize that people go to hell because they are doing wrong. It is why we all have to know that we have 2 brain hemispheres, the left and the right brain hemispheres. One makes us emotional and the other makes us logical in whatever we THINK.
When we become emotional, we forget about the other side of us that requires us to be acceptable to other people’s attitudes. If other people’s attitudes are unpleasant, we leave them alone. They do not match what we deserve in our THINKING.
However, if our thinking is also unpleasant, we get to the point where we do not qualify ourselves of the Goodness that is necessary for a Spirit to exist. Now, we have a difficult time understanding where we are going to be. Are we going to be a Spiritual being or a ghost? Now we are in a very difficult situation because we are in doubt of where we shall be in the future.
The two brain hemispheres, which are your left and right brain hemispheres, must always be united for every THINKING that you do. If you decide on THINKING about the quality of togetherness, than peace is going to follow your thoughts.
However, if you decide on just how you can please yourself and forget about everyone else, then your thinking is selfish and illogical. Now you have a reason to consider your thoughts as unworthy because they no longer include others in what you think.
What you THINK must always consider others as worthy and deserving of your good thoughts. This is how you will become appreciated by goodness because you are already including others in the goodness of your THINKING.
Always consider being thoughtful of others… and goodness will follow you.
How do you consider death?
What we have to realize, then, is that death is not at all a bad thing. But if you become a ghost, it measures how the bad things you did affect you now that you have become a ghost.
Death is, thus, the continuation of no longer living as a human being, but as a ghost or a Spirit. Death is considered a transformation, and you have to make that transformation worthy of what you were as a human being.
If you lived as a human being in a terrible way, your transformation, then, will not be good. You will suffer as a transformed human who did not wish to die at this time, because at this time you are now exposed to what you have done wrong when you lived as a physical person. That transformed human being will then become a ghost, who will have a different place to go to. That different place is what people call ‘hell.’
When you become a ghost, this means that your left and right brain hemispheres had failed to coordinate themselves properly as a human being. As a result, you incorrectly made choices that forced you into taking actions that were wrong. For example, you exploited the goodness of others to make your own existence more valuable than what other people’s existence was. You also cheated others when you didn’t have to.
On the other hand, if you become a Spirit, your existence becomes a valuable evidence that you were worthy of everything you did to others as well.
Becoming a Spiritual being is only leaving a physical environment and re-entering the Spiritual environment from which we each appeared from DARKNESS as an infant through our MTHR’s womb.
Certainly, the transition is a sad one for you when someone you have known for years dies. When that person leaves, there is a connection that is lost. However, we should never be totally grieved if we know that that person is going to an environment where he or she shall live forever pleasantly. This is the reason why it is important that we each act in a very good manner so that when we become Spirits, we won’t face any condition that is imposed upon us through the evil we did on Earth.
In other words, our existence on Earth is an experiment that requires us to act in a very good manner. We must know that everything we do to another person will always appear after our death. We will have to show why we were so unkind to our fellow humans. This is how Spirit verifies that it was connected to a person whose behavior was sensible or not sensible.
Our Spirits are constantly recording what we do right and what we do wrong. Some people’s Spirits have little or nothing to write about the wrongs they did. Their Spirits will not have enough documentation of wrongs to present to “God,” and they will easily enter the Spiritual realm.
Others, on the other hand, will require days and days… or months or years… to unleash the bad behaviors that require a great punishment. They will not enter the Spiritual realm, where those who did good have a place to live. Rather, they, with the bad behaviors, will be led to hell, where they will exist as ghosts and burn and burn and burn.
We must know that our existence on Earth, therefore, is an experiment to determine how good or bad we exist. If our behavior has been bad, then we have to present a very long list of the bad behaviors to the God that will question whether we go to heaven or hell. This is important because our death actually explains our ability to exist forever in either a pleasant way or in a very horrible way.
When we die, and become Spirits, we shall no longer need material things nor shall we require things to protect us, etc. We will live in an environment that has no rainfall, no sunlight and no need to buy food. It is an environment in which we shall never feel hungry nor desire to go to places. Rather, we will have the ability to travel to anywhere we want to go instantaneously.
Spiritual existence is a very good existence only if you prepare yourself to be a good and clean Spirit by being good to your fellow humans. But, if you did not prepare yourself, then your existence as a ghost will be very worrying.
