Hotep (Afrikan Kemetic Medu Neter word for Peace), Ankh, Udja, Seneb (Afrikan Kemetic Medu Neter words for Life, Prosperity, Heath)!!! May this post find you in the best of spirits! My Trip to Kemet (Egypt), Africana Studies, and Black Liberation. Yes, family I am in Afrika doing field and educational research about Kemet, (Egypt)-the world's oldest and greatest documented civilization. The 2021 Kemet Nu Educational Know They Self Tour Sponsored by Professors Ashra and Merira Kwesi -the legendary teachers of Egyptology (the scientific study on Egyptian history, culture, and spirituality) and history. Journal Entry 8: Our Kemetic studies concluded with many visits to the many temples in Upper Kemet. One such temple is called the temple of Dendara. It features a huge image of Cleopatra VII, the Afrikan origin of the Greek Zodiac, and the 365 day calendar. This is all documented in the Medu Neter. (Side by note: Cleopatra VII was of mixed Kemetic (Egyptian) and Greek (Macedonian) background, However, according to our Egyptology and history classes, Europeans are now arguing that she was more Afrikan than European.) The Temple of Dendara also features the Afrikan origins of Christianity. It is at this temple, our Afrikan Kemetic ancestors celebrated something called, "the Day of the Child in his Cradle." This was festival commemorating the birth of Heru (Europeans and Arabs call this Neteru Horus). The founders of Christianity took this festival to make it a celebration day for the birth of the biblical Jesus the Christ on December 25. Neteru is Medu Neter for a principle representing the one God-AmerRa. There are 19 Neteru. They are called by the Medu Neter God and Goddesses. Our Afrikan Kemetic ancestors taught that the human soul was judged based upon the Goddess of Ma'at. The definition of Ma'at stands for truth, balance, righteousness, order, reciprocity, and propriety. Our Afrikan Kemetic ancestors believe that from God to humans, birth to death, and even in the afterlife everything must be based upon Ma'at. The system of Ma'at demands equality between men and women on earth and in the spiritual world. Unfortunately, because many us have become disconnected to our Afrikan history and culture through white supremacy, we can not see our legacy's impact on the world. More importantly, because we fail to connect to our Afrikan cultural traditions, particularly Afrikan Kemetic cultural traditions, we remain mentally oppressed in America and in the world. Without Afrikan history and culture as a foundation for Black liberation, we will continue to scatter all over the planet blindly following every word of our former slave masters and colonizers. As a consequence, we will continue to build a world for our oppressors. Without the knowledge of self centered on Kemet, and the Nile Valkey, we will struggle to build a world for ourselves free from our former slave masters and colonizers!!! Afrikan Kemetic culture and spirituality astonished Europeans and Arabs, but on another level, intimated them. European leaders, such as Justinian and Theodosius ordered the closing of all Afrikan Kemetic temples during 4th and 6th centuries A.D. under the Roman Christian Empire , so that no one will ever discover the Afrikan Kemetic origins of Christianity, the arts, and sciences. They even ordered the murdering of all Afrikan Kemetic high priests that taught the faith tradition of AmenRa and sciences of the mystery schools. Europeans and Arabs even stole all the scrolls that taught the faith tradition of AmenRa and the sciences of the mystery schools. Even during Europe's Middle Ages, Christians monks plastered theirs faces over the Medu Neter to promote a fictitious myth that Christianity came from some place in the western world. Thank God our Afrikan ancestors created and wrote the Medu Neter. It has helped some us study and understand the events of our Kemetic Afrikan history, culture, and spirituality. The Medu Neter is the oldest recorded written language in the history of the world. It has documented the story of Kemet's role in the origins of the world's civilizations and religions. It is all written in stone!!!!!! But I am moving forward. Although I have left Cairo and Giza days ago, I am now in upper Kemet (the southern region of Kemet) to study Kemet's contributions to the non-religious world. I did not come to Kemet to just study her spiritual foundation of the world's faith traditions . It is in Kemet's spiritual centers that the world's math, sciences, and the liberal arts were created. Kemetic schools and spirituality developed simultaneously. Kemetic people developed astronomy, papyrus (paper), written language, trigonometry, Algebra, agriculture, medicine, theology, architectural engineering, astrology, philosophy, embalming, art, geometry, physics, biology, literature, geography, anatomy, and archaeology. Afrikan Kemetic people called this section of the temple-The Mystery Schools. Kemet is Medu Neter for land of the Blacks. When I am finish with my studies on upper Kemet, I will move onto Nubia and Abu Simbel (a Kemetic city near the tip of the Sudan). BY THE WAY, THESE PICTURES ARE NOT PHOTO SHOPPED. THEY ARE FROM MY IPHONE CAMERA!!!!!!!!!! All of Kweisi's Arab Professors/guides bore witness on day one that Kemet is the root of the world's civilizations and religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Al-Islam).

In Ma'at Bashir Muhammad Akinyele -History and Africana Studies Teacher in Newark, NJ -ASCAC's (the Association for the Study of Classical African Civilizations) Study Group Coordinator for Newark, NJ New Jersey Representative for ASCAC (https://ascac.org/) Shem Hotep (Medu Neter for I go in peace)! Note: Medu Neter is the original Afrikan language for Kemetic people (Egyptian people). After Europeans and Arabs invaded Kemet (Egypt), they began to change the name of the Medu Neter to Hieroglyphics.
