One of the outstanding land mark of history in the fifteen century, was the exploration and conquest of the West African coastline. As early as 1415, the Portuguese invaded attacked and captured the African sronghold of Ceuta in North Africa. So, with the conquest of Ceuta in North Africa, the Portuguese set out to explore and invade the West African coast. By 1435 they reached Senegal, by 1443 they reached Cape Bojador, by 1446 they reached Sierra Leone, by 1455 they reached Guinea, and by 1481 they reached the Congo. It is therefore, very clear, that the invasions and kidnapping of Mama Africa, started and continued, many years before that other criminal ChristopheR Columbus was born, since he was not born until 1451 in Genoa Italy. So, when we look at the slave Castles and Dungeons in Mama Africa, where our people were imprisoned to await the slave ships, to be whipped through the door of no return, from the middle passage and the slave plantation of the western hemispere, then we must say that these kinds of manifestations, do produce burning memories, which we should not be asked forget. a The burning memories will continue until the Europeans make the needed corrections, by opening the gates and let African people in the Diaspora Repatriate, and also put into practice Reparation, Restoration and Compensation for Mama Africa and her people everywhere. 500 years of slave trading activities is a very long time shame on you European people. The journey of life continues. Take the best care of yourself and your people.
Again I send many oceans of blessings and self determination to African people everywhere.
ONE BLACK HEART ONE BLACK LOVE.
