This channel was created to share my personal experiences with the world. I will also share day to day experiences as well as reading material which I have obtained nuggets of wisdom.

Since I uploaded my D.N.A. results I have received comments from the colonizers gatekeepers. It's amazing the ignorance. However, I will never ever never stop acknowledging my African ancestry. This path was laid out for me and it has been enriching and eventful. It only gets better. My culture is rich and has so much to offer my soul. My journey is everlasting and it is my hope that you all em...
NEVER FORGET YOUR ANCESTORS | In The Spirit of Sankofa

As always, I don’t plan what my discussion will be about. I simply let my ancestors give me utterance. Long live our ancestor Zora Neale Hurston for her labor of love by capturing the heart wrenching story of Cudjo Lewis. Never forget your ancestors in the spirit of Sankofa (Go back and fetch it), and the spirit of Kossola (Cudjo Lewis).

I’m so blessed to have met this elder named Cecily from Kingston, Jamaica over one and a half years ago. She was definitely sent to me by the Most High. Both of our prayers were answered. We were exactly what we both needed. Miss Cecily is now 80 years old. My spiritual father is from St. Ann’s parish in Jamaica and has recently celebrated his 90th birthday.

Happy Sabbath You remind me of a Nigerian women I know.
@@zenaidawilson7058 Happy Sabbath my sister! Yes, I have seen many kin all of my life💕🙌🏾💕❤️
Don’t trust it..Especially in America!!
My family is all over the world and I see them all the time. But the spirit never lies despite the test results and like attracts like. I know who I am and always have. Know thyself!
I always get emotional when I read Barracoon which chronicles the life of Cudjo “Kossola” Lewis’s after being captured into slavery. Who feels it knows it ✊🏾❤️✊🏾
Very well said
Fire is all Africans. We embody the fire element it is in all our DNA. The connection we crave is our Ancestors knocking at our door but because of Colonization we were separated from our true self. Ase.
Ase’❤
youtube.com/@grassysea2802?si=pTmUk5Up6glEuXHV - This channel helped me realise how connected we are as AFRICANS, from west to north to east to south and central despite such variety in geneology and phenotypes compared to the other continents we still managed to keep so many cultural similarities.
Yes we are all connected. The division must cease 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
The channel you recommended is amazing! Wonderful content! Thank you for sharing ❤🙏🏽❤️
Contact D r GIna piage of Africa Ancestry they will give you the actual tribe your ancestors are from.
Thank you. I did their test as well and received the ethnic groups for my Mother’s side. I know one of the ethnic groups in Nigeria from my father’s side which is Yoruba. There are more but these results are from ancestry.com❤🙏🏽❤️
I really enjoyed watching this! Bought back sweet memories of artists I love and respect. One love ❤️💛💚
What a beautiful experience. Thank you so much for sharing it!

@@78mochagirl no pun intended. To clarify my last message, there were other sisters on your channel and I wasn’t sure if I sent my message to Annika Leonard on your channel that was speaking. I have deleted the message and will reach out to her personally. Thank you again for watching
Hi The Eye Of The Coconut Shell! Great content you got there. I think all this channel needs is a little push to get things moving. I can help with that. My info is on this very channel I'm using to comment.

I no longer get in my way. I have met people along the way that have confirmed to me that I’m definitely gifted in the things that I’ve downloaded. Your gift is not for everyone but that’s okay. You will find those that you were called to serve when you step out and begin to exercise your gifts. You got this!❤❤❤❤
I no longer try to fit into anyone else’s mold. God designed a unique mold that is for me and me alone. I know this now but didn’t always know it! Never give up my people. Get to know thyself and follow your own path ❤❤🙏🏽❤️❤️
Let the haters be haters but remain true to being yourself!
So darn true! People hate on you and all the while they wanna be you but can’t! That’s why you gotta walk your own walk with no apology! Facts!

You couldn't have said it better sister! We always try to put out the fire on the peoples' houses and leave our own houses burn. Nevertheless, we have always put up a fight, but just that we as a people have always been attacked since the days of Kemit from all fronts: cultural, religious, political, historical, and even militarily. Like you rightly said, majority of us don't know our history and therefore have no interest in our culture which is our unifying force. The ones among us who always put up a fight are those of us who know our history and love our culture and ourselves as a people. But thanks to the good works of people like you who remind us of our obligations, our history and our culture, Africa will continue to rise. Each one teach one! Thanks for the powerful message delivered and honour to the King of Kings, ancestor Haile Selassie 🖤
@@Mr.Minukuu.Podcast thank you so much my brother for listening and the encouraging words! Sometimes it can feel like no one is listening but if it’s just one, then we have done our part. You are an inspiration to me and so many even if they are not commenting. They are watching and listening to you. Keep doing the awesome work you are doing. Your ancestors are proud of you for showing up and not running away. Hail the I. Blessings and love to you always❤️🙏🏽❤️🙌🏾❤️
@@theeyeofthecoconutshell Thanks for the encouragement! We will keep spreading the word. More power, more courage more love to you my dear sister. May the ancestors continue to speak through us. Have a great day ❤
Beautiful ❤
Thank you! ❤

You're such a great singer ❤❤

Hi friend i was wondering if you had the chance to meet Dr. malidoma Some?
Hello there! Unfortunately, I never got the opportunity to meet him but my life has been forever impacted by his work. However, I know him in spirit 🥰🙏🏽🥰
