@Regrann from @baphemetis - [REPOST and SHARE👌💯💯] The true meaning of St. PATRICK'S Day. This bitch slaughtered and colonized the Twa and Druid Tribe. In the name of "Jesus". 🙄 #TankYaJesiz #TwaPeople #TwaTribe #DruidTribe #DruidPeople #StPatrick #StPatricksDay #HappyStPatricksDay #BlackConsciousness #KnowledgeOfSelf #KnowThyself #KnowledgeIsPower - #regrann
the zambian kingdoms series: the twa people
the twa — batwa — lived in zambia prior to the main bantu invasions of the 1600s. the name batwa is a generic label meaning "people who always move" or "the others" — applied to groups of foragers and fishers found from the great lakes region southward to central zambia.
the twa lived in three wetland territories: the swamplands of bangweulu in the north, the lukanga swamps of central province, and the kafue flats of southern province — exactly the three wetland systems the rivers series described. the twa did not settle beside the wetlands. they lived inside them.
their way of life: no domestic animals, no crops. they lived on fish — caught with nets, traps, and spears in the channels and pools of the swamps — on wildlife, notably the kafue lechwe, the sitatunga, and the otter — and on vegetables from the swamps, mostly lily plants. they built their homes on papyrus islands — floating platforms of compressed papyrus that could be relocated as needed. they lived in small communities without chiefs — the specific social structure of a people whose mobility and small group size made hierarchical authority unnecessary.
the encounter with bantu settlement progressively pushed the twa deeper into swamp environments. the lukanga twa developed a patron-client relationship with the lenje — exchanging fish for agricultural produce. the british colonial administration recognised one chief for the kafue twa — chief shikafwe — at a time when there were 6,000 twa in the kafue flats. the british enforced land settlement instead of the papyrus islands, and gradually the twa intermarried with neighbouring tribes and their way of life disappeared.
eric von rosen visited the twa at bangweulu in 1914. he reached a floating village to find it empty. after waiting, a youth appeared cautiously in a canoe — dark-brown skin, without tattooing, a snakeskin belt with tiger-cat skins fastened to it, a long bow entirely covered with snakeskin. the weapons of the swamp-dwellers.
the twa and the ila both see themselves as indigenous to zambia — contrary to peoples like the lozi, who trace their origins to angola or the DRC. the twa's claim is the deeper one — older than the ila by many centuries, perhaps by many millennia.
the people who always move. the first people of the wetlands. the people who built their homes on floating islands and moved when the water rose.
the zambian kingdoms series continues. 🇿🇲

Chasing the serpents out of Ireland is a metaphor for genocide. So what St. Patrick is really famous for, is waging a genocidal war against the indigenous people of Ireland who had migrated there many thousands of years before the Caucasians and before Christianity, who where African (and coincidentally, thought to be Pagan).

Reposted from @pushing_black - St. Patrick's Day = Celebration of Genocide of Twa People. You can imagine my surprise, many Years ago, when I first read about the Scottish historian David Mac Ritchie and his findings that the original Leprechauns were ethnically the wee Twa people of Africa. If my memory serves me, he was pointing out that some of the early inhabitants of Ireland were Black wee people standing no more then 4 feet 11 inches tall. They had great knowledge of many things including medicinal technology. This knowledge of herbs and other wisdom was considered magic by the local people. Later this magic came to be symbolized by the magic dust of the leprechaun. I always found these findings most interesting. It is interesting to note that Africans in America still participate with our fellow Irish American citizens in a culturally healthy way as they celebrate their heritage. So what St. Patrick is really famous for, is waging a genocidal war against the indigenous people of Ireland who had migrated there many thousands of years before the Caucasians and before Christianity, who where African (and coincidentally, thought to be Pagan). • AUDIO: CRU Rayality IG - @Cru_Rayality Twitter: @Cru_Rayality • • Join Our Instagram Family @Pushing_Black • • #StPatricksDay #TwaPeople #ColinKaepernick #IMWITHKAP #MartinLutherKingJr #PushingBlack #ProBlack #ProBlackIsntAntiWhite #unapologeticallyblack #unapologeticallyme #blackempowerment #Blackexcellence #blackculture #blackart #blackartist #hiphop #hiphopart #photography #portrait #killeverygram #livecreatively #blackfashion #blackfashionblogger #melaningoddess #melaninmagic #blackisbeautiful https://www.instagram.com/p/BvHUuAanmut0Vpi1KKcYzRUDKCngnznFGrjVBk0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=km3xc25ujfw9
The #twapeople Small in stature but big in spirit! These are the people that the leprechaun legends are based on, the first true settlers and inhabitants of Ireland. "St. Patrick" was instrumental in their genocide. They were the "snakes" he was driving out, because they wouldn't convert to the Christianity that he was attempting to force upon them. The whites that invaded their homeland looked at them as magical because of their knowledge and capabilities with medicine and healing yet that didn't stop then from destroying them so they could take their land. So when you celebrate St Patrick's Day just make sure you know what you're drinking to. #cheers #soulfulsunday #history #stpatricksday #themoreyouknow #melaninbarbiethoughts #melinatedmarch #black365 #black360°🌍 https://www.instagram.com/cettaliza/p/BvGMIyRH9gH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=bxlh9xrninr0
