Black Survivors In Nazi Germany

One of the most neglected stories in world history is the death, torture and sterilization of Afrikan people in Nazi Germany. Wherever the horrors of that period are mentioned, movies made about it or documentaries produced, the suffering or even presence of Afrikan people are never mentioned.

Ironically, the Nazi's preparation for the mass human destruction they exerted in Europe started in Afrika. Medical experimentations were conducted in preparation for their European campaign. We will bring this terrible chapter of history to the forefront, with the only film ever made on this subject. Come and see this neglected history for yourself.

This is the second to last class! We will resume in the fall. This summer, though, we kick off Black History 4 Young People, for the first time, held here where we teach Afrikan World Civilizations. Sign your child up today!

For this class, though, come on out this Friday evening from 7-9 p.m. at Kaos Studios in Leimert Park, 4343 Leimert Blvd. (corner of Leimert and 43rd Place) in Los Angeles. Our email address is: DrKwaku@hotmail.com. Individual Classes: $15 per person, unless you are a former student, then it is $10 per class. And of course, by student, we mean those who have registered and taken a full session in the past.

Studying El Hajj Malik El Shabazz (Malcolm X)

Minister Malcolm X was the most dynamic leader of the 1960s. His birthday was May 19^th. He would have been 83years old. His teachings, along with his autobiography, influenced a whole generation. He made Black people aware that they were Afrikans and developed the philosophy of Black Nationalism. After leaving the Nation of Islam, he organized the Organization of Afro American Unity (OAAU), and the Muslim Mosque Inc. Some of the effects of his teachings inspired people of Afrikan descent to wear naturals, use Afrikan names, develop organizations, travel to Afrika, inspired several scholars, and more.

The film, "The Autobiography of Malcom X," is the most authentic film ever made on Malcolm. It is not the Spike Lee film. His wife, Dr. Betty Shabazz, authorized the film, which was produced by Warner Brothers in 1978. It features the real Malcolm and his teachings. This film is no longer available, not even from Warner Brothers. It is a tribute to his legacy. Don't miss it!

Only three more Afrikan World Civilizations Classes left until fall! Come on out this Friday evening from 7-9 p.m. at Kaos Studios in Leimert Park, 4343 Leimert Blvd. (corner of Leimert and 43rd Place) in Los Angeles. Our email address is: DrKwaku@hotmail.com.

Dr. Kwaku's Class: Propaganda: The Art of Deception

During the period of the slave trade, America used every media source and pulpit available, including the church, to justify the institution of slavery. Harvard and Yale supplied the scholarly support. South Afrika did the same in justifying its apartheid policy and the separation of indigenous Afrikans, and the Europeans who invaded and settled there.

The Nazis instituted the most sophisticated program of deception during WW II. They mastered the art of propaganda to cover up its atrocities and to convince the world of its ˜master race" eradication program.

President Ronald Reagan used it to invade Grenada, as president George Bush did to invade Iraq. Today, the most deceptive propaganda program involves a very effective propaganda machinery to cover terrorist campaigns against the Palestinians in the name of self defense. We will take an intimate look into this process and how it is orchestrated through the corporate media and government agencies.

Afrikan World Civilizations announces its summer session BLACK HISTORY 4 YOUNG PEOPLE, designed for Afrikan American youth to learn their history.

The First Americans, Afrikans In Ancient China, and Australian Afrikans

Dr. Kwaku to teach 5 class mini-series beginning May 9. See Info below!

Dr. Ivan Van Sertima and Attorney Legrand Clegg II were the first to educate us about Afrikans from the Nile Valley inhabiting the Americas almost 1000 years before Columbus' voyages. For years, there has been speculation that Afrikans may have been the first to inhabit the Americas, not the Asians who crossed the Iberian Peninsula, and ultimately became known as Native Americans. This is one of the subjects we will explore this Friday.

We will also look at one of the hidden stories in ancient history, the Afrikan involvement in the establishment of ancient China. There is very strong evidence that the first empires of China, supported by DNA evidence, were of Afrikan descent.

Lastly, we will look at the Afrikans in Australia through the experience of David Gupilil, the leading Australian Afrikan actor who lives interestingly in his traditional culture, as well as western civilization. He has starred in such films as, 'Rabbit Proof Fence', and 'The Tracker'.

Afrikan World Civilizations Class happens in the Fall and Spring, for 11 Fridays from 7-9 p.m. at Kaos Studios in Leimert Park, 4343 Leimert Blvd. (corner of Leimert and 43rd Place) in Los Angeles. Our email address is: DrKwaku@hotmail.com.

Pay for the five class mini-series : $50 for big savings! Come early this Friday to register!

Is Rev. Wright wrong? Also, Dr. Clarke's home tour and Karim Abdul Jabbar-author and intellectual

Rev. Jeremiah Wright is currently the most controversial and vilified figure in America today. Is Rev. Wright correct about black theology? We need to discuss and analyze his actions to determine if he is speaking truth, and if this truth is seriously harming the campaign of Senator Barack Obama.

We will observe Rev. Wright in his most thoughtful candid moments.


We will also see, by request, the home tour of Dr. John Henrik
Clarke, the only video recording of his home and research collection ever recorded. I was able to record his workspace when I was in Harlem, NY interviewing him for the book "On My Journey Now."






We will conclude with a rare interview by the most current intellectual athlete, Kareem Abdul Jabbar. At left he is pictured with Dr. Ralph Bunche and his wife.

Afrikan World Civilizations Class happens in the Fall and Spring, for 11 Fridays from 7-9 p.m. at Kaos Studios in Leimert Park, 4343 Leimert Blvd. (corner of Leimert and 43rd Place) in Los Angeles. Our email address is: DrKwaku@hotmail.com.

No time to read it? Hear Dr. Kwaku Tell You About This Week's Class:
Click Here to Hear

First, we will go to Senegal with students from Spelman College and witness a close-up look at this very unique culture. You will witness the emotion of visiting Goree Island, one of the main slave ports in West Afrika, and what young women of Afrikan descent did while visiting Afrika for the first time. We will then take a very intimate excursion of El Mina, the slave castle in Ghana and hear the history of its horror.

We will then join Senator Barack Obama on a very personal journey through the homeland of his father, Kenya, as well as accompany him through South Afrika and Chad. He will not just pass through communities, but mingle and communicate with the throngs that followed him. See the Senator talk about being in the place where humanity began. Come with us on this very special adventure and see the continent like never before.

How can you teach your children their history if you don’t know it yourself? Dr. Kwaku's Black History 4 Young People is in the planning stages (usually 6 weeks in June and July).

The Belizean-Nigerian Connection. Also, Blacks in Japan

This week we will look at the history of Belize, focusing primarily on the Garifuna culture. These are a people whose origins evolved from Nigerians who escaped slavery and mixed with the Caribs, and developed a very unique culture.

We will also take an inside look of what it is like to be a person of Afrikan descent living in Japan. This is the first time this mixing of two distinct cultures will be explored, with surprising results.

Afrikan World Civilizations Class happens in the Fall and Spring, for 11 Fridays from 7-9 p.m. at Kaos Studios in Leimert Park, 4343 Leimert Blvd. (corner of Leimert and 43rd Place) in Los Angeles. Our email address is: DrKwaku@hotmail.com.

The Origin Of AIDS

In class last year, it was promised that we would deal with the origin of the deadly disease known to humanity as AIDS. The most credible work done to date in finding its origin took years of meticulous research. Its location was specifically traced to Afrika, created by European physicians and scientists. These same individuals have legally prevented the results of this work to be shown in Europe, but we will seriously investigate it in class.

We will end at 9:00 pm sharp because of prior commitments after class.

Terrorism Against Black People

Since being brought to America, people of Afrikan descent have undergone the worst brutality in the history of the nation. This occurred during and after slavery. The greatest intensity happened when Afrikans attempted to secure freedom from slavery, which escalated when exercising their right to register and vote, live in certain areas or seek employment in competing white markets. The organization that initiated the worst terror attacks was the Ku Klux Klan (KKK). We will take an intimate look at its secret history.

Class starts promptly at 7 p.m. in Leimert Park at Kaos Studios, located at 4343 Leimert Boulevard in Los Angeles. Register for the entire course for: $100. To pay per class it is $15 each.
