I have noticed that there is an abundance of information out there as it relates to the spiritual concepts of our ancient ancestors in Kemet, Nubia and Anu. In as much as the best of our historians, linguist and archeologist have been doing their own work in the field...there are also many Europeans from the 17th and 18th century who reinforce many of the things our own scholars have uncovered.

Likewise, there is also an abundance of material out there by so called Egyptologist who happen to be white and chose to write our history as they saw it. So what then is the difference?

The difference is that many times when invaders would enter Egypt, they took the best of their scholars and researchers with them in case they found anything of value that they as warriors naturally would not understand or recognize as having any value.

Many times the European scholars who entered Egypt were astounded and shocked by what they saw and discovered. Some recognized that they were invading a civilization and culture that was superior to their own.

Instead of going back to Europe and writing what they were told to write, some became renegades or rebels and wrote what they actually saw or found. These are the white people that you will never read or hear about such as Gerald Massey and Albert Churchward just to name a few. There's also Schwaller Delubizt (hope I spelled that right) and many others.

Had it not been for these renegades who refused to lie about what they found and saw, much would really be lost. Later on our own scholars in an attempt to verify or see if there was any misinformation or racism in play concerning what these European scholars wrote, would begin doing their own independant research into all ares as it pertains to our reality.

There would be those at the very top who would excel in their own areas of research. Some would become linguist, some archeologist and religious experts. Some would become involved in the feild of DNA and health. Some would become psychologist and on and on.

The point here is that we do have our own scholars who have proven themselves to be the best in their respective fields. We equally have a backdrop of European scholars whereby we can compare and analyze the information we've been given.

In all due respect, none of the scholars we have were able to know all or tell all. many of them work in colleges and have other jobs that would seriously be jeapordized should they actually divulge all that they know.

What many of them did do was, give us enough to allow us to in essence become our own scholars and take it further than they did.

Where is the evidence of this thought process? I have seen it displayed on various web sites. Even I myself have dug up information that no scholar taught me and that I was able to advance because of their research or the road they led me down.

Even with that being said, there are brothers and sisters on different web sites that are truly tight in the area they have chosen to excel in. The issue now is in finding a way to sort of bring all these people to some type of round table so that the information can be glued together and sifted out to put the picture together.

What's your fedback on this?

The idea of a round-table is a good one. An intellectual brain thrust. What concerns me is a tendency to romanticize our history. We have allowed a few individuals to build themselves up as the sole authority of Khemetic or Nubian history and culture and assigned these individuals with a cult-like status.  In effect, we end up with our own potentates who we must go through to legitimate our own knowledge which is gained and/or revealed to us as a result of our own scholarship or our own direct relationship to our "gods", "ancestors", Neteru", etc.

There are white "egyptologists" such as Gerald Massesy who have written a wealth of information concerning the knowledge that many of us are lacking. What becomes problematic for me is being presented the works of African "masters", some of which themselves have been or are presently associated with "secret societies" such as the Rosicrucians or Golden Dawn, yet their "Disciples" reject or attempt to discredit these very same white Theosophists. This is a form of hypocrisy and intellectual dishonesty.

Many of us take misinformation and cling to it and run with it as if it is the Gospel, then spreading the very same falsehood which we claim to reject. These things need to change.

It would be a great thing if enlightened individuals could come together via the internet or websites. i think that some of us get a lil big headed when we reach a certain level and feel as tho no one can tell us anything on the subject we have so called "mastered". i know i'm open 2 recieve new knowledge and of course i mentally sift thru it and do my own research. but yes we need 2 organize and really start thinking about armed struggle. i know it sounds extreme but sitting back reading writing and researching isn't stopping the oppressor from getting stronger. isn't stopping cops from brutalizing our black men. isn't stopping drugs from filtering into our community. and it's not telling us where our tax money is going. we need 2 organize and fight....on all levels....physical...mental...spritual...peace..
