very question you ask lies the answer that will set you free.

Understand this dear Afrikan Child. Creativity started with
your forefathers in this cradle of humanity. Creativity went
full circle around the globe and now is coming back home
to you dear Afrikan child. Your heart is the Garden of God
and your hands are His creative tools. So do not believe what
they told you that you are dull, good-for-nothing and that
you came from the lineage of backward people. As an Af-
rikan child reading this, you, your fathers, mothers, sisters,
brothers, have been made to look weak, unreliable, primi-
tive, dull, and unintelligent by those who think your forefa-
thers lived on trees. But that was a lie and will never be true.

For you, as an Afrikan child, came from a long lineage
of kings, queens, warriors, emperors, army generals, sci-
entists, geniuses, unrivaled architects, poets, musicians,
wealthy tillers of the earth and its resources; those who the
kings of other nations outside Afrika bowed to in honor
and fear. And because the Afrikan blood is rich and bold,
it means you are also a king, queen, emperor, empress,
wealthy and not some aid-begging, drug peddling, inter-
net scamming, roadside thug and compromising individual.
