It looks like another example of Black innovation being copied and stolen could be happening. @brebreromi @breromiofficial , a Black inventor, created a unique product that bundles hair and locks with colorful magnetic hair clicks. Her creation has now been allegedly copied by another woman, and now that woman IS SUING BRE and even sued an activist @kiandria who came to BrE’s defense. But where is Black media? Not one post, but 25 posts. Not one 10-minute interview, but 10 one-hour interviews. That is the point. When threats like this hit our community, why are we not giving them repeated, consistent attention? If anyone in Black media cares to explain why these conversations only get five minutes on air, five minutes on a podcast, or a single post, let me know. Because that isn’t Black media. That’s silence when we need a megaphone.

Imagine if politicians actually cared about the health and well-being of the people, instead of feeding corporate greed.

All our lives would be better.

The disgusting hypocrisy of it all? Congress gets socialized health care for life.

They love THEIR socialism. Their paychecks. Their food per diems. Their pension.

"don't worry scientists will invent a way to solve climate change!" They already did... several times over... just the people who didnt like their solutions (cough cough oil companies) had enough cash to shut them up both legally and illegally

Failed people. Failed parents. Failed families. Failed communities. Failed churches. Failed morals.

All given a platform in Republican politics.

THE AFRICAN ORIGIN OF PYRAMIDS

Africa has a rich and complex history, yet there is widespread ignorance of this heritage (Ogunwande, 2019). Like other aspects of African culture, the architecture of Africa is exceptionally diverse. Throughout African history, Africans have developed their own architecture across the continent (Tchouakeu, 2021). One of the most notable architectural achievements is the pyramids.

While many people associate African pyramids solely with Kemet (ancient Egypt), there are numerous pyramids built outside Kemet (Khamis, 2020). In South Africa, Adam's Pyramid is located on the same 31 degrees East longitudinal line as the Great Zimbabwe ruins and the Great Pyramid of Giza (Adeyemi, 2022). In Nigeria, the Nsude Pyramids were built by the Nsude people and may be part of the lost African civilization of Igbo-Ukwu, dating back at least 2,000 years (Obi, 2023). The largest pyramid is located in the center of the complex and is surrounded by three smaller pyramids. The Pyramids of Benin, located in modern-day Benin, West Africa, were built by the Edo people (Nwogu, 2020). These pyramids comprise 18 individual pyramids located within the Royal Court area.

In Sudan, a collection of nearly 200 ancient pyramids stands along the banks of the Nile River, built as tombs for kings and queens of the Meroitic Kingdom from around 760 B.C. to 650 B.C. (Mohammed, 2022). The discovery of the Dan Baki pyramid in Niger by Egyptologist Souley Garba in 2012 highlights the richness and diversity of African pyramid architecture (Garba, 2021). Garba speculates that the unopened pyramid might contain more than 40,000 gold objects.
