Facts on Carver (DVD)
.
By: ARC Staff Writers
October
17, 2010
.
The
Facts on Carver DVD produced by Elements 4 Nature (E4N) was released on October 8, 2010.What's so significant about this particular DVD release is that most of George
Washington Carver's books and DVDs were written and produced by Europeans.However, this particular DVD was produced by E4N, a Black owned company founded by
2 former Tuskegee students.E4N focuses on selling Dr. Carver & Dr. Curtis line of peanut based products
and other natural base products from mostly Black manufacturers.
.
The Facts on Carver DVD is no Hollywood
production, however, it is a good solid DVD that has a lot of historical and factual information concerning Carver's work
while at Tuskegee.“The Facts on Carver DVD is a film that we did while promoting Carver based products
at Tuskegee’s homecoming in 2008.The spirit, lead and guided us from conception to production to
do this project because we had no intentions on producing a film on Carver before arriving on Tuskegee’s campus
in 2008. The Facts on Carver DVD brings out some interesting facts on Carver that is not presented
in a DVD format any where else. For instance, Carver paint processes that he used to make paint out of dirt
or clay from Tuskegee’s soil were the same paint processes that the Ancient Egyptiansused that have never been reproduced
until Carver reproduced it,” said Jon Adkins, the founder of Element 4 Nature.
.
This
is the second project that E4N has created and introduced this year concerning George Washington Carver.E4N
exhibited the George Washington Carver Experience
Traveling Exhibit at the 6th Annual Black
History Showcase in Philadelphia during Black history month of this year.The developer and curator of the George Washington Carver Experience Traveling
Exhibit, Yasir Khalid, who is also the co-founder of E4N, answers all of the questions asked
by Jon Adkins on Carver's life at Tuskegee in this DVD. "We are very excited
about the release of this DVD. This is our small contribution in trying to keep alive and expand the legacy of George
Washington Carver. We realize that it would be virtually
impossible to cover the vast contributions & impact that Dr. Carver made in one video, however in this film our intent
is to highlight the discoveries and contributions that seemed dearest to him," said Yasir Khalid.
.
The October 8th release date coincided with the date that George Washington Carver arrived
on Tuskegee's campus thus starting his important work in producing so many products from the peanut. The
Facts on Carver DVD is available to purchase exclusively on the
Elements 4 Nature website

Miss Aisha Sekhmet
New CD Release: The Answer, I Say Go Get it!
.
Miss Aisha Sekhmet
.
By: Jon Adkins
November
25, 2009
.
Miss Aisha Sekhmetis fresh and
raw.She reminds me a lot of a female Tupac.However, she is clearer on her position
as a revolutionary rapper than Pac was.She has some Pac qualities with a little bit of the
Dead Prez style mixed in.There’s no other female rapper currently performing that you can compare
her to.She has to be one of the pioneers in this field along with of course Sister Souljah.The only other female singer/rapper that I can think of with the uncompromising style is Sister Breeze.
Sister Breeze is an old school reggae artist who focused on telling the truth without worrying about who she
offended.That’s basically what Miss Aisha Sekhmetis about.What
I like most about Miss Aisha Sekhmet'snew CD is her ability to mix the Dirty South sound with equally
fresh flowing uncompromising rhythmic lyrics.Yes, her lyrics are at times raw, especially with cuts
such as Who Suck Illuminati D** and the Whiteman’s B**. Who Suck Illuminati D** is a song (track) where she singles
out Jay-Z, P. Diddy and 50 Cent as being sellouts to true Hip Hop music. I commend the sister, however, for
putting a Parental Sticker on her CD because those two particular songs alone warrant that sticker.However, those two particular songs also contain strong uncompromising messages concerning standing up for
the truth and not compromising for the sake of money or fame.Her CD has numerous hits in addition
to the two songs I just mentioned.
.
I
particularly like the songs:
Black Power Rock
Go Get It
Heido
Ho
Guerilla Than A M’ F***
House Nigga
Miss Aisha Sekhmet shows her versatility by doing a good job in singing
a love song in Be My Dope Boy. The rhythm of the dirty south sound matched up with her rhythmic raps and powerful uncompromising
lyrics is what makes this CD so awesome. Black Power Rock is one particular song that energies you and could even
be incorporated as the Black Power Anthem. The following sample
sound tracks created by Conscious Music Zone, will give you a taste of how good the CD is:
Miss
Aisha Sekhmet is loud and clear on getting her message across.She represents the same theme as we do at Alkebulan Reference Center of No Sellouts!
No Compromise!And we definitely want the people to buy the sister's CD and NotBootleg it!Purchase the CD at Conscious Music Zone by clicking on Miss Aisha Sekhmet's picture of her CD below or the

Alkebulan Reference Center (ARC) was on location in Kemet better
known as Egypt on an educational tour trip lead by Brother Anthony "Tony" Browder. Tony Browder is the author
of numerous books, one being "The Nile Valley Contributions to Civilization." The 13-day educational tour started
on July 27, 2007 with stops in Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan. The trip concluded in Cairo on August 7th. It
was an awesome trip. Words
cannot describe seeing the Pyramids, Temples and Tombs that our ancestors built.Dr. Asa Hilliard states
that anyone of African descent who makes the pilgrimage back to Kemet is considered a member of the "Royal Kemet Holy
Family" (I'm sorry to say while preparing to write this article Dr. Hilliard made the transition while in Kemet
(Egypt) with our ancestors). Going inside the great Pyramid of Kufu and taking the pilgrimage
back to the first "Holy Land" or the Holy City of Abydos where the Temple of God Ausar is located was
a life changing experience. Take a look at the following ARC video clips to get a better idea of the vibe in Kemet:
While in Kemet, I interviewed the dynamic Councilman
from the 42nd District in Brooklyn New York, Charles Barron. Brother Charles was an inspiration to me. I never
thought anyone could make a significant difference to the livelihood of our people while working within the US political system
that's based on White Supremacy. Charles
is doing just that, he is making sure that our people is getting justice in a system that is historically based on injustice. He's
really bringing into fruition the phrase that was coined by Jessie Jackson's "Keep Hope Alive."
We need to support Charles Barron with our resources in his quest in becoming the next mayor of New York City. Click

Brother Tony
Browder has lead numerous tour groups to Kemet. He has made the pilgrimage to Kemet 42 times. I interviewed Brother
Tony and asked him several questions concerning the philosophical concepts that our ancestors practiced in ancient Kemet. Click

You can purchase the complete the 20-minute DVD interview
for $15. You

is in the business of disseminating knowledge,
wisdom and understanding to our people in order to help raise the consciousness of Black people.

Leaders Urged
Stop Africa from Dying, Race War in Africa...
bbbbbbbb
By: African Diaspora Union
.
bbbbbbbb
ATLANTA, GA. July 25, 2011 – “Africa is dying” warned the former
US Attorney General, Ramsey Clark as he condemns the attack on Libya as illegal and racist and called for the intensification
of actions to protect Africa. The chilling but pointed messages and reports on Africa from prominent leaders were focused
on critical issues such as the ongoing war in Libya, the “new scramble for the re-colonization of Africa” and
the dwindling and endangerment of Black freedom and rights across the world.
.
During the main address to hundreds of mainly African
Americans who poured into the public forum, former Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney stated that the U.S. backed NATO attack
on Libya is to wage a protracted war against the African Union (AU) efforts for a “United States of Africa.” She
insisted that the attack on Libya is an effort to sabotage Bro. Leader President Khadafi billions of dollars fast-track approach
to establish a ‘United States of Africa’. This achievement would make Africa economically and politically the
most powerful continent in the world, threatening Europe’s already declining global hegemony. The U.S. of Africa concept
originated with Marcus Garvey and was fervently advanced by leaders like Dr. WEB Dubois, Patrice Lumumba, President Abdul
Nassar and President Kwame Nkrumah.
.
Additionally, the former presidential
candidate called upon those in the African Diaspora to muster the spirit and principles of Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King,
Jr., Minister Malcolm X, Fannie Lou Hamer and other great leaders to promote justice and freedom in the world. McKinney urged
all to contact their leaders in Washington and demand a halt to the war and for American resources to be used for jobs, education
and global peace.
.
Minister Akbar Muhammad provided
a detail account of U.S. policy on Africa and highlighted the irony of the attack on Africa by a Black President, the genocidal
attacks against Black Libyans, and that the undermining the African Union (AU) is to ensure a weak, impoverished and dependent
Africa on the U.S. and Europe for the control of Africa’s resources. Also during the forum, Dianne Mathewitz stressed that "The atrocities committed by imperialist US and (NATO)
former European colonial powers in Libya are crimes against humanity". Indeed, legal actions and a tribunal on U.S.-NATO
war crimes and other violations of international law against Africans are been pushed by human rights and international lawyers
such as Attorney Wareham in NY.
.
After urging everyone to support
the “March for Africa and Jobs” in NY on August 13, 2011, Minister P.D. Menelik proposed that the AU establish
divisions across Africa to protect Africans from slipping back into chattel slavery and colonialism. He reminded the community
that the AU has designated the African Diaspora as the sixth region of Africa and urged all to take on the responsibility
with their skills to become part of “an African Diaspora division for the development of Africa.” For centuries,
members of the African Diaspora have fought for their freedom and returned to Africa to support the rebuilding of their Homeland.
Other speakers and key participants included Reverend Derrick Rice, Lucy Bradley, Keena Toney, Sobukwe Shukura, Karen Mason,
Dr. Sharifa Saa, Kwame Lynburg, Thano Paris and Kofi Adjei.
.
The successful public
forum at the historic Shrine of the Black Madonna was organized by a coalition of global, national and local organizations
such as the Africa Ascension, World African Diaspora Union (WADU), The Nation of Islam, All African Peoples Revolutionary
Party (AAPRP), the Pan African Ministers, the African Community Centers, UNIA/ACL, The Georgia Green Party, International
Action Center, African Association of Georgia, the New Black Panther Party, The Libya Dignity Delegation, Sankofa United Church
of Christ, Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), The Shrine of the Black Madonna, First African Presbyterian Church,
Malcolm X Grassroots Movement and The Congo Coalition.
