That woman ain’t human. Listen to the cadence of her voice, observe how she vibrates a peace energy. Feel the truth in her light. …With that timeless face of Nefertiti …she ain’t one of us, she is all of us.
Amen
She has a beautiful ENERGY
Wonder when this aired and how old was she then
Black woman is creation ✨
The Mother of the Earth.
And ALL its inhabitants.
She's a real queen

Im surely glad to meet u for the Virgin black culture store Mary the mother of the most high yahweh son yeshua holy 💙
As Catholics our Black Madonna represents The Holy Mother,Mary, our Lord's Mother. Is this the same? The store sounds wonderful.
It's the same.
I don’t think it matters. I mean, are you gonna obey God more now because of this? Probably not, right? Besides, if whites in Europe are worshipping a Black deity, then what are we doing here in America if we supposedly now know the truth?😂
It is not the same but stolen and misrepresented.
Black madonna is Lucifer and Jesus her son ,wicked demons
@@the2ndcoming135 Black (Egyptian god Anubis) means Regeneration has ZERO, absolutely Zero with Negroid Race, Europe never ever worshiped so-called "black" deity
Regeneration means
re-establish, regenerate, reorganize, reassemble. in the sense of rejuvenate.
That's exactly what it means.
This black supremacy delusion needs to stop.

A lot of black cities used to have stores like this .. but where are they now 😢…
Gentrification took them out.
Literally.
@@missshannon9790 And Amazon.
@@missshannon9790 Gentrification had nothing to do with it. We stopped supporting these stores, allowed our properties to fall apart and ultimately shifted our consciousness away from valuing black businesses such as this. That’s our fault, not “gentrification”.
@@Nina513 you are wrong. When did the caucazoid owners of these rat traps that were sucking the blood out of our communities give Us the opportunity to rent them after THEY abandoned them for insurance money ?
Your whole premise is flawed as to how abandoned businesses that weren't black owned in the first place got abandoned.
When did the banks come and give loans to the long time residents of those communities to once again rent the buildings that they went up on the rent?
I don't think you have adequate knowledge of systemic racism, redlining or gentrification to even speak on it. Yet you want to cast aspersions on Black People for being the objects of their discrimination.
Please go learn something about the above three factors of urban decay, then come back and we can try to have a conversation.
Right now you're a little to IGNORANT and erroneous to speak with further.
I was recently given my great grandmothers Rosary Beads 📿 & MaDonna; which was her mother’s family from the Abruzzo Mts in Italy… the MaDonna is CURVED natural wood, brown stained.. NO PAINT!
This sister resembles Queen Tiye
Sweet lady
My cousin wife , she has past on. The store is no more in Detroit
Condolences.
But what happened to the store?
Did it close because she died?
Yes it close before her transition
She looks like Queen Tyie, King Tut's grandmother.
LOL! I thinking the same thing!
Please check Marcus Books in Oakland, Ca.... Originally in SF Fillmore district. Just fyi.
I love what you're doing.
what's your website beloved?
Please tell me this is still open?
I was wondering that same thing. Hope the shop and this lady survive this terrible mess.
Store is no longer open in Detroit check Atlanta or Houston
Atlanta and Houston are open and thriving! Do a google search to check for hours and directions!
Similar Cultural Center in Atlanta “Westend” Georgia b4 it burned down. Loved the cultural center!!
(July 2024)The Cultural Center was closed for few years because of funding and COVID pandemic. I was at the Conference Auditorium couple months back supporting Hill Harper for US MI Senate. Didn’t think to inquire about Cultural Center/Book Store. Kudos to Ms. Bennett for sharing this informational and inspiring Black History video. 🫶🏾🙏🏾
Why does this sacred goddess look like Nefertiti 🤯
Is it still there?
UPDATE please.
The store is no more. That is my cousin wife she has past on. The shrine of the Black Madonna had stores in Atlanta and Houston but not sure if they exist anymore.
@@ekfreeman1 thank you for the update
@missshannon9790 They are still open and thriving! Do a google search for store hours and directions.
What a woman!! wow, lookiing at the still I thought she was the Black Madonna! all Love and Light from Europe 💞

Loving how easily people fell for the bait. Amazing how this was never an issue or question for Harriet Tubman, Nat Turner, or Solomon Northrup.
What wasn't a question.?
@@missshannon9790 whether they were really Black or not goofball. Y’all believe anything white people tell you.
@@the2ndcoming135 you get on here spewing nonsense that nobody understands what you're talkin about. And you? Are calling somebody else a goofball? Really?
Negro PLEEEZ!

God Blessed Mary and Mary gave us Jesus. Thanks Mary ! :-)
Leviticus 26:1
“Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the LORD your God.”
This is Protestant bullsh*t. Nobody's "worshipping an idol" here. Holy images are a _focus for veneration._ God, along with Mary the Theotokos, is in heaven (and also Everywhere!). Those who use images know that as much as any Bible-pounding Prot (who too often make an idol of their pastor, w/ their Big @ss Pulpit in the middle of the church).
Did she say they are black Christian nationalist? While the store/cultural center is… 🤦♂️
She is real but it is written 🌬📖🍵 Thou shall have no other Gods before me 🕊❤️🌎😇🍵👑✊🏾🙏🏾🌬
The black pope is the prince of the earth in a good way the pacamama you saw was supposed to be in coded message ,you notice a priestess of the instinct tribes because of colonialism and ignorance ,it's not known what this priestess represents ..she may be small and have no power ...but she chose pope Francis and crowned him ...thus crowning Christ ...the pacamama,pope Francis and the woman all represent creation (it was all done by their will as pacamama is their mother of earth (Esther)the earth mourns ...yet they don't see this riddle ...why is there two pope's right now,? why is Francis called the black pope?what is that crown that tribal priestess gave him ?it's god's creation ther is not bad or good but there is sin, and sin against nature ,this is something to think about ...what is god telling us ??through his vice regant who represents the king of all kings high or low⚜️⚜️
Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
7 And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the ancient people? and the things that are coming, and shall come, let them shew unto them.
8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any.
9 They that make a graven image are all of them vanity; and their delectable things shall not profit; and they are their own witnesses; they see not, nor know; that they may be ashamed.
10 Who hath formed a god, or molten a graven image that is profitable for nothing?
11 Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed: and the workmen, they are of men: let them all be gathered together, let them stand up; yet they shall fear, and they shall be ashamed together.
12 The smith with the tongs both worketh in the coals, and fashioneth it with hammers, and worketh it with the strength of his arms: yea, he is hungry, and his strength faileth: he drinketh no water, and is faint.
13 The carpenter stretcheth out his rule; he marketh it out with a line; he fitteth it with planes, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of a man; that it may remain in the house.
14 He heweth him down cedars, and taketh the cypress and the oak, which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest: he planteth an ash, and the rain doth nourish it.
15 Then shall it be for a man to burn: for he will take thereof, and warm himself; yea, he kindleth it, and baketh bread; yea, he maketh a god, and worshippeth it; he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down thereto.
16 He burneth part thereof in the fire; with part thereof he eateth flesh; he roasteth roast, and is satisfied: yea, he warmeth himself, and saith, Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire:
17 And the residue thereof he maketh a god, even his graven image: he falleth down unto it, and worshippeth it, and prayeth unto it, and saith, Deliver me; for thou art my god.
18 They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see; and their hearts, that they cannot understand.
19 And none considereth in his heart, neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; yea, also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh, and eaten it: and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? shall I fall down to the stock of a tree?
20 He feedeth on ashes: a deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, Is there not a lie in my right hand?
21 Remember these, O Jacob and Israel; for thou art my servant: I have formed thee; thou art my servant: O Israel, th
We are the God on the planet, not albinos
Traditional varnishes are natural resins which, when applied in a thin coat on a surface, dries to a hard, glossy, and transparent film. Natural resins darken with time and the image on a painting may become darker to see and the tonal balance alters. Hence black faces on old icons.
Then why didn't their clothes darken too?
GET THE **** OUTTA HERE WITH THAT OLD WHITE LIE!!!!!!
I don’t wanna call you a fool dude. Soon the light shall come out. This world is just jokes bunch of satanic decivers all around the world pathetic…
Jesus was black! Mary was black.
But yes the real mother of Christ was ack! But we are not to worship statues of her or else that's Idolatry! And that's a Sin! Exodus 20!
who told you that? because a book said it so you believe it? 😂😂
It's not "worshipping a statue": that's Protestant BS. It's venerating an image which _represents_ Mary, the Theotokos (God-Bearer).
Sounds false AF
It’s a false idol my people
Lol, the black Modanna is from Egypt and she is Asian Minor. The Arabs, Turks, Egyptians who are the West Asians. If you ever seen her, you'd be disappointed that she looks nothing like subsaharan African. She is a very dark olive skin with long wavy beautiful thick hair and not nappy or an afro. You should pray to see her, you will understand that the color black represents the dark Goddess. If you pray to ask to see her, you will see I'm right. She us stunning but looks nothing like your kind.
lol you sprinkled a little hate in this comment. just inform, don't hate for no reason.
The Black Madonna I have seen in Polish, and my father is from Poland. She is dark, but not look like African. So it is with the Russian and Byzantine Icons. We need more African statues and images of the Holy Mother. Also why put down pale skin(as in the comments here?) sounds like a wonderful store, much needed, many blessings. That art is so amazing.
Star light u are very jealous who does she looks like? u lol remember ur skin is very pale dim
Olives are green she is dark brown
Poor baby yes she does look African she can look Fulani Malian
She look Tusi she look Ethiopian Somali she look Senegal Maasai Afar and many other Black African groups
Black people have array of Phenotypes more diverse than any other race
This is idolatry
