Africans are often told lies so we can later be appropriated after we’ve abandoned our culture. It is important to understand that our culture is the truth and it is not about what the oppressor says but what we believe of ourselves.
In this episode of the True2Kings podcast, Temi and Sean dive into the topic of culture theft that has been happening to Africans for many years. Listen in to learn why it is our opinion about ourselves that matters most not that of the outsiders.
What you will learn:
· [0:34] Intro
· [1:34] The African and African American cultures and why they should be acknowledged when used.
· [7:52] How the world is trying to be like us without giving credit, which makes no difference between now and the slavery days.
· [13:39] Why you shouldn’t be too concerned about what the oppressor thinks of us but what you believe you’ve brought to the table.
· [16:14] Understanding that whatever we Africans are told about ourselves is lies because we’re the real deal.
· [21:47] Learn and appreciate who you are and where you come from before you allow ideas of others to belittle you.
