We should have a John Henry Clarke Holiday as well as a Malcolm X holiday and we should have a celebration about them.This could be apart of the conscious movement culture.Lets stop celebrating white people`s evil Holidays like Christmas which is a Satanic Holiday and Thanks Giving which is a celebration of Native American Genocide.Lets drop the Euro-centric culture and lets start our own culture and we should try to encourage as many blacks to join the culture as possible.Much love my people.

@barlog20 I agree! would you replace European hellidays with the veneration of our ancestors, or use completely different dates and ignore the European ones?

How blessed was this young lady and the young people to have experience and be in the presence of one the greatest African Historian to live!!

This is something that the young people today are missing and they are lost about who they are -where they are -and what they are suppose to be.

Marcus Garvey said it best!

"A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots."

@barlog20 A holiday to celebrate these kings would be fantastic!

@barlog20 What days would you pick and why? How would those days best represent what these leaders were about? Also, many Asian stores don't celebrate xmas/Thanksgiving (they just work their store as any other day), so what I am thinking is why not just start celebrating certain days for these leaders and pass this along to friends and people in the community so that it can build momentium.

@barlog20 Christmas is not an European holiday but a purposeful action by caucasians to keep us ignorant of the fact that we are really celebrating the birth of the SUN and not the birth of the SON. The Sun stops moving for approximately 3 days from Dec 21 until Dec 24 and therefore dies and begins to move again on Dec 25, hence the birth of the SUN of RA aka GOD. The Europeans came up with the term Christmas to celebrate a fictitious character named Jesus(he never existed). Google "Serapis"

To my sorrow, I never heard of Teacher Dr. John Henrik Clarke up until a few weeks ago. This Elder spoke deep knowledge, things I never heard of in all of my years of school. I so wish I could have met him and studied under him. Asante Dr. Clarke.

@barlog20 yea I feel it. I can see myself implementing something similar in my household eventually...

[barlog20]

@teacherofculture It would be nice if we did replace Euro Hellidays(love that term,imma borrow it)with our own Holidays cause that would be our way putting up our middle finger to their holidays and cultural ways.But i also don`t mind if we have our own dates either.Its all about what alot of us in the conscious movement can collectively agree on.Hotep.
