MOTHERLAND

Starring Meles Zenawi, Molefi Asante, Kimani Nehusi, and More. Motherland is a breathtaking passage, which sweeps the continent of Africa.

Motherland is an epic and unprecedented entry into the canon of African-owned cinema, which charts the glory and majesty of the Motherland (Enat Hager). Motherland is a film that unapologetically calls for African unity, self-determination and the African rebirth. From the acclaimed producers of the multi-award winning 500 Years Later , Motherland is Directed by Owen 'Alik Shahadah and produced by M.K. Asante,Jr. Motherland has been in the making since 2004 and is expected early 2009. themotherland.info

Until the mental slavery that exists in our minds is gone our children in my opinion cannot be allowed to be exposed to media, art, clothing or literature from the oppressor. We must immerse our children in our rich culture and history to protect their minds from being destroyed. Once pride is once again at the root of our soul we can then equally be exposed to everything as human beings, but Africans and their descent are not there yet. This is not a racist opinion it is simply a reality.

Anthraxant - you need to pick up a book my friend - Read about Kemet and read about the history of the enslavement of the Afrikan people.

@stopevil following the proverb in the video, these white ppl who shamelessly call themselves arabs have also told their version of the story with complete disregard of the factual truth. these semitic europeans who first fought, enslaved and then stole the real moorish/arabic culture of africans r now conveniently misinforming the whole world of their superiority (complex). their funniest trick being hiding behind islam and the claim that the last prophet was an arab, lol and indeed he was.

Someone needs to put this up online. I want to see this!!!

[stopevil]

@abidemi21 , actually I have a very good understanding. Arabs come from the Arabian Peninsula. I don't get my information from the Western media, I get it from black African southern Sudanese. My black African southern Sudanese friends who explained it to me about who is there and who is not. there are people who are Arab by blood but not Muslim and in Sudan you have black Africans mixed with Arab who deny their black heritage, I don't need help from a racist pig like you.

[abidemi21]

@stopevil Based on your comment, i have decided that u lack a basic understand on who is Arab. you probably get all ur stupid misinformatio from ur western media. therefore u deserve to remain stupid forever. but if you really want to know the truth about the issue in Sudan, i wld be very happy to help you. peace.

I cant wait to purchase this DVD.

Right now black Africans are being slaughtered by Arab Muslims in Sudan, the indigenous black Africans of Sudan have been fighting against various Islamic and Arab regimes since 1960. These Arab regimes have committed numerous acts of genocide against the Native Nuer, Dinka and other black African tribes but they were defeated under the leadership of Dr. John Garang. The attempted forced Arabization/Islamization of the native black Africans of Sudan must be stopped.

Africans should always learn about our glorious past, because we might've been brought in chains, we've a friutful past live time, that we shouldn't forget.

[imanisankofa]
