Yesterday, I found Distant Cousins (4th Generation or more) with roots from Nigeria, Senegal and Morocco. I adopted the name Omowale in 1978, when I began writing for a Black student newsmagazine as an undergraduate student at UCLA. Omowale is a Yoruba name. Omowale means “the child who has returned home”. The family name linked to my Ancestry DNA matches is Oladipo, and secondarily Ogunwale and Sanyaolu, as well as Owolabi. These trace back to Ogun State in modern Nigeria. To a place known as Iboro. Today, I recognize and claim this as my primary Ancestral home. #omowale #omowalevision #nigeria #nigerian #yoruba #ogun #ogunstate #africandna #africanhistory #africanancestry (at AMSG)

“The children born in refugee camps haven’t harmed anyone.” The children born in the seven days after the “Liberation of Tawergha,” during Libya’s 2011 revolution celebrated their third birthdays last week. But for most of them, the date will have been marked not with candles and cake, but with another instalment in the daily struggle for clean drinking water and basic rights. These children have lived their whole lives in squalid refugee camps dotted throughout Libyan cities - they have never seen their hometown of Tawergha, the “green island” of Berber tradition. Now, three years on from the forced evacuation of around 40,000 of the city’s residents, Libyan authorities and the United Nations are coming under increasing pressure to find a lasting solution for displaced Tawerghans. ‘A scar on the face of Libya’s revolution’. http://www.middleeasteye.net/news/tawergha-scar-libyas-revolution-1308461374 #tawergha #libya #genocide #ethniccleansing
The fighters of Misrata eventually prevailed, breaking out of their battered city, and Misratan brigades made up part of the force that overran the capital Tripoli in August. They also captured and killed Gaddafi and one of his sons in late October, and put the corpses on display in their city. #tawergha #libya #genocide #ethniccleansing #slaveryinlibya (at African Asiatic Studies Project)
The recent news about #slaveryinlibya only tell part of the story. The larger tragedy is one of #genocide and #ethniccleansing of thousands of #blacklibyans such as the people of #tawergha The 30,000 people living in a town in northern Libya have been driven out of their homes, in what appears to have been an act of revenge for their role in the three-month siege of the city of Misrata. So what really happened in the town of Tawergha, are the accusations of brutality against the town's residents fair and what does it say about hopes for national unity? "No, they can never come back… They have done us too much harm, terrible things. We cannot forgive them." Najia Waks, a young woman from Libya's third largest city, Misrata, is talking about the people of Tawergha, a town about 50km (30 miles) to the south. For three months between early March and the middle of May, the forces of Muammar Gaddafi laid siege to Misrata. These forces were partly based in Tawergha, and the people of the town are accused of being complicit in the attempt to put down the uprising in the city. They are also accused of crimes including murder, rape and sexual torture. http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-16051349 (at African Asiatic Studies Project)

The Greatest “Moor”. Ṭāriq ibn Ziyād (Arabic: طارق بن زياد) was a Berber Muslim commander who led the Islamic Umayyad conquest of Visigothic Hispania in 711–718 A.D. Under the orders of the Umayyad Caliph Al-Walid I he led a large army and crossed the Strait of Gibraltar from the North African coast, consolidating his troops at what is today known as the Rock of Gibraltar. The name "Gibraltar" is the Spanish derivation of the Arabic name Jabal Ṭāriq (جبل طارق), meaning "mountain of Ṭāriq", which is named after him. #tariqthemoor #moorish #moorishhistory #moorishheritage #blackhistory #islamic (at West Adams Historic District)
