Looks like a man that WAS fishing with a net and spear but noticed a fleet if slave merchant ships coming to shore to enslave him and the rest of the ancestors. If he knows what I know, he betta HIGH tail it OUTTA there and alert the other men warriors!!! Yikes!
I see an African. I see ocean worthy vessels. I see extreme ignorance and no advancement on the part of the African man because of the spare and his garment; he is dressed like a savage. On the hand, the ocean worthy vessels indicates the occupants are technologically advanced that surpasses that the African man and his way of life by leaps and bounds.
My take away is that I realize how important it is to be intelligent and constantly advancing in life otherwise you become the subject of another man.
Incidentally, Cynthia what you see is the same thing White people saw. A muscular African with a strong back, but no brain would make a good slave am I right.
Irma, why should a picture of an African be posted during Black America’s history month when Black Americans are not African people?
Siebra, an African man with a spare and a diaper on is hardly a man with a vision and a mission. You are blind.
Jen, it doesn’t matter how far he runs and the warriors he notifies because their technology is inferior to the operators of those ships.
While White people were advancing in life the Africans were doing nothing but killing themselves like the Native American Indians did for thousand of years before White people began to explore the world and take what ever they wanted from any people they met am I right.
So, intelligence is power and not the muscles the African man displays am I right.
I understand your sentiments against me and it is alright. You are looking for false favoritism. You are not looking for the truth. If you were looking for the truth you would have explain just how I am messing up the blog, but no one else is. You are stupid and dishonest.
I said what I saw like every one else said what they saw, but what I saw is messing up the blog. You are a ****y woman Irma.
@Jen... Gurl!! Aint dat da truth!! BUT I still luvs a phine black Mandingo Warrior... To stand on the shores... In loin cloth/fig leaves... whatever...watching and waiting for my ship to sail IN.....
Lawdy.... "Have sum mercy on my poor retched soul" Because right now my thoughts are just pure lustful!!!! LMAO!!!
you all are stupid because you have no brain and it doesn't bother you all. If i suddenly became stupid I would be terrified. Stupid Black American people just makes me sick.
Just an hour age at the Y I was arguing with a stupid Black American man that this other man came into the dialogue and poit blank told my rival the he is not making any sense. It flips me out when a person is not making any sense.

Harry... Are you a Mandingo Warrior? or just a crazy ole Wuss??
((If i suddenly became stupid I would be terrified. )) Are you terrified now??
Mandingo Warrior,,,,,,,,The Mandinka, Malinke (also known as Mandinko or Mandingo) are one of the largest ethnic groups in West Africa with an estimated population of eleven million (the other 3 major ethnic groups in the region being the non-related Fula, Hausa and Songhai). They belong to the larger Mandé group of peoples.
They are the descendants of the Mali Empire, which rose to power under the rule of the great Mandinka king Sundiata Keita. The Mandinka in turn belong to West Africa's largest ethnolinguistic group, the Mandé, who account for more than twenty million people (including the Dyula, Bozo, Bissa and Bambara). Today, over 99% of Mandinka in Africa are Muslim.[1][2]
The Mandinka live primarily in West Africa, particularly in the Gambia, Guinea, Mali, Sierra Leone, Côte d'Ivoire, Senegal, Burkina Faso, Liberia, Guinea-Bissau, Niger, Mauritania and even small communities in the central African nation of Chad. Although widespread, the Mandinka do not form the largest ethnic group in any of the countries in which they live except the Gambia. Most Mandinkas live in family-related compounds in traditional rural villages. Mandinka villages are fairly autonomous and self-ruled, being led by a chief and group of elders. Mandinkas live in an oral society. Learning is traditionally done through stories, songs and proverbs.
Originally from Mali, the Mandinka gained their independence from previous empires in the thirteenth century, and founded an empire which stretched across West Africa. They migrated west from the Niger River in search of better agricultural lands and more opportunities for conquest. Through a series of conflicts, the Fula jihads, primarily with the Fula-led Imamate of Futa Jallon, about half of the Mandinka population converted from indigenous beliefs to Islam. During the 16th, 17th and 18th century as many as a third of the Mandinka population were enslaved and shipped to the Americas through capture in conflict and therefore a significant portion of the African Americans in the United States are descended from the Mandinka people.[3]
It is thought the Wolof people originated from a Baffouri population in the Sahara before it became hostile to farming due to desertification. As the environment deteriorated some of them drifted into the Senegalese areas of Futa Toro and modern-day south eastern Mauritania. With the Arab conquests of around 640 AD they were forced to move into north and east Senegal where over time villages developed into autonomous states such as Baol, Kayor, Saloum, Dimar, Walo and Sine the overall ruling state being that of Jolof who came together voluntarily to form the Jolof Empire.
Legend has it that in Walo the fishermen from several villages argued vehemently over firewood which lay along the edge of a lake at Mengen. Just before matters developed into violence a mysterious person called Ndyadyane Ndyaye (Njanjan Njie) arose from the lake and shared out the firewood fairly among the men and promptly vanished much to their bafflement. The decision was made to try and catch him so they feigned another argument and when he appeared he was caught. When Mansa Wali Jon the ruler of Sine, who was himself endowed with supernatural powers, heard about the strange goings on in Mengen he shouted "Ndyadyane Ndyaye" which is an expression of utter amazement. This name was given to the strange visitor (actual name: Amadu Bubakar Ibn Muhammed). He became the first ruler of the new empire with the title Burba Jolof and other states voluntarily pledged allegiance to him. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolof_people Thursday, April 25th 2013 at 5:38PM

I have explained countless of times that we are not African people. We are a new race of people born out of the ashes of plantation slavery about 500 years ago. Today we are known as Black Americans who are descendents of plantation slavery.
Almost 100% of the children born during early slavery were children of the old White slave master. Don’t you all understand that?
So, do you all think that these children fathered by the old White slave master cane from Africa?
You all are stupid and are unable to analytically reason.
@DAVID, I SO SO LOVE THESE 'PICS' YOU POST AS THEY OFFER A TIME TO STOP, LOOK AND LISTEN TO OUR SPIRITUALIY . (S-M-I-L-E)
