WOW

Now thats what I am talking about- and I have the nerve to complain about the rain!
Thank you for this informative posts CP keep up the good work!

I love these black history stories. It shows us what we are made of and who we come from. Somewhere between the 1980’s and now we lost our way and forgot what kind of stock we are actually made of. So I hope by reading this we would get away of these defiatism and victimized attitudes that we as a race have adopted. And before everyone goes crazy I am not talking about every black person. But I hear too many black people say black people don’t do this or we don’t do that and I am glad too know that people can start reading these stories and realize you can do whatever you want too do.

simply beautiful

What an amazing woman she was. WOW. I am just so thankful for people like her in this world. Thanks so much for sharing.

GAINESVILLE ALABAMA?! OR IS IT GAINESVILLE FLORIDA.

These posts are always interesting…keep up the excellent work CL. Thanks

I don’t know who submitted this to CL but it is wonderful!!! These are the stories I want to read, hear about and see depicted on film. Good job Concreteloop!! Keep up the excellent work..

really nice, good post, what I like about those history is that black people back then was more united, I meant black people not just African american, now we see a big division between blacks born in Africa and blacks born in America, and only one race win with this situation, yo know what race I am talking about, did yo know that africans comming to USA working for those oil company are advised not to deal with african americans because they’re aggressive? just the same way they put on african americans mind that they’re different from blacks born in Africa, and if you go to Africa you will see the same race over there acting like they’re helping when they’re there to take those people oil and diamonds,
WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!

Wow… I have never heard of her, though my dad once told me that in his native language, there are words that resemble english words…. I am from Congo (Zaïre), which is now called DRC. My dad was born and raised in that region of the country. By the way, the language of these people is called Tshiluba (Tshi = Chi). Great work, and I really appreciate these posts… I come every thursday to read them.

Thanks for the post. I lvoe these. I learn something new each time. I always pass this information one. You are one of a kind!

Thank so much…I truly love the Black History Spotlight!

wow!

I love these post!

beautiful and inspiring. thanks.

She went from being a victim of judeo-christian psychological colonialism to spreading that message of self hatred and white is right to Africans. Well history is history, and I certainly appreciate the post. I just think we need to ask ourselves how is this woman a “heroine”? Certainly not for taking an oppressive religion to a different continent and convincing the natives that their beliefs were sub-par in respect to the European construction (perhaps re-construction) of christianity which was thrust upon her while being held captive.
Just sayin…

Thanks for sharing that piece of history. I look forward to more.

truely amazing how much we accomplished with faith and determination alone compared to nowadays when we have so much material possessions but a broken spirit

Awsome….

Im proud to kno where i cam 4m =D..

“Mama Wa Mputu” means ‘Stubborn mother’ rather than mother from far away.
