“We must not suppose for an instant that the Book of the Law is opposed to reason. On the contrary, its own claim to authority rests upon reason, and nothing else. It disdains the arts of the orator. It makes reason the autocrat of the mind. But that very fact emphasizes that the mind should attend to its own business. It should not transgress its limits. It should be a perfect machine, an apparatus for representing the universe accurately and impartially to its master. The Self, its Will, and its Apprehension, should be utterly beyond it.”

Great African empires

In this episode of “Lumumba’s Africa,” Professor PLO #Lumumba explores the #historical significance of the #African continent, which was the cradle of some of the greatest #empires, including the #Egyptian, #Songhai, #Benin, and #Yoruba empires, among others across the Mother Continent. While these #civilizations flourished, they suffered devastating impacts due to slavery and #colonization. However, some of these #kingdoms, such as the #Zulu Kingdom, #Oyo, and the #Waganda Kingdom, still exist today. The professor #emphasizes the importance of keeping the #legacies of #African kingdoms alive through discussion and #storytelling, as this will help unite Africa and contribute to a brighter future for the continent.
