Welcome to Intro to African American Psychology Lesson 2: Patriarchy 101 Gender-based oppression! Course + Ebook

This session was prerecorded and scheduled to release on Sunday, February 2, 2025 at 7:30pm. This morning, I realized there was a technical error and many of you did not receive the link. I do apologize for the inconvenience and that I wasn't able to address this sooner as I was out of town celebrating my sister’s birthday with my nieces. My sister passed away in 2016, and her children are still young, so February 2nd is a sacred day for our family.

Again, i do apologize for the inconvenience. I am back home and resolved the tech error.

The course and ebook are now available on my patreon or website

Happy Happy Happy 6th Day of Kwanzaa! ❤️🖤💚

Today, we celebrate the sixth day of Kwanzaa, which is dedicated to the principle of Kuumba (Creativity). This day encourages us to use our creative energies to build and maintain our community, making it more beautiful and beneficial than we inherited it.

As we light the candle for Kuumba, let’s reflect on how we can contribute to our community through our unique talents and creativity. For the Gullah Geechee community, this is a time to honor our rich cultural heritage and the creative ways our ancestors preserved and passed down traditions. Whether it’s through art, music, storytelling, science 👩🏿‍🔬 or any other form of expression, our creativity is a powerful tool for positive change and liberation

Happy 5th day of Kwanzaa. Today, we celebrated Nia, which means purpose, with a hands-on introduction to composting workshop to get your garden started + tour of the former Jenkins Orphanage campus. Although the crowd was small, the connections we made were significant. I look forward to working with you all again soon!

Side Note: I’ve noticed that more of you attend my paid events compared to the free ones. Does this mean I should focus solely on offering paid workshops and tours 2025? Ain't gotta tell me twice or show me thrice 😊

In 1725, while laboring in a plantation swamp near Charleston, SC, enslaved Africans discovered mammoth teeth. Drawing on their knowledge from their homelands in Angola or Congo, they identified the teeth as elephant molars. Despite their expertise, the plantation owners dismissed their insights, instead believing the teeth were from giants killed by Noah's Flood. It was later confirmed that these teeth belonged to a Columbian mammoth, an extinct relative of modern elephants.

This history is frequently obscured, hidden in plain sight. Join me in advocating for the installation of a Gullah Geechee interpretive sign and memorial garden at the Dead House in Riverfront Park, a site built by the hands of these enslaved churn. Your support is crucial in honoring their legacy and combating cultural erasure.

**Happy Hoodoo Sunday!** 🌟

This is your weekly reminder that Gullah Geechee people are descendants of Africans, not Native Americans. It's important to address and correct misinformation, such as the claim that we are Indians. 🙄

Africans played a crucial role in the fight against slavery, often referred to as the Gullah War. This conflict is frequently conflated with the Seminole War because many Africans who escaped slavery joined forces with Native Americans, who were also resisting the same oppressors. Black men, like Abraham (pictured below), were often on the front lines of these battles.

Andrew Jackson himself acknowledged the significant presence of African fighters during the Seminole War, stating, "It is a Negro, not an Indian war," due to the large number of Gullah warriors involved.

Let's all commit to thinking critically and using our 🧠 when we encounter information. Misinformation can be harmful, and it's our responsibility to seek the truth and honor our ancestors' legacy.

Park or Plantation? Check out my new Gullah Geechee YouTube series First episode is available on YouTube Step into the untold stories of the Lowcountry with Park or Plantation?, a YouTube series that explores the hidden land histories of America’s most top tourist destination, Charleston, SC. Hosted by Akua Page, a descendant of the Gullah Geechee people, this eye-opening journey dives deep into the ancestral lands of the Southeastern coast, places often celebrated for their natural beauty, but whose pasts are steeped in the legacies of stolen people. Each episode, we visit a location marketed as a serene "park" or historic site, peeling back layers of time to reveal its truth: Was this once a plantation? What voices have been erased? From golf resorts to forgotten burial grounds, Park or Plantation? confronts the complexities of memory, land, and identity, asking: Who gets to shape history? #GullahGeechee #gullah #geechee
