Can we talk about American Gods? We really have a dark-skin black woman playing a Biblical Queen and a Love Goddess. We have Black People portraying Egyptian Gods. The lead of the show is black. They have West African Gods being portrayed on mainstream media. Seeing black people’s mythology and history represented on screen by black actors is a big thing. People aren’t even aware of nor regard the several figures in Abrahamic religions being African. .

Colonel Remy Van Lierde(A Belgian pilot who fought during WW2) allegedly claimed that he saw a giant snake in the Katanga region of the Belgian Congo while he was returning from a mission via a helicopter. He went back so someone could take a picture of it (the 2nd pic is a close-up) while trying to get close. He said that it was about 50 ft in length and it rose up approximately 10 feet, giving the impression it would have attacked the helicopter if it had been within striking range.
