Professor Kaba Kamene was born Booker T. Coleman Jr. on November 16th, 1953 in New York Hospital in New York City into a culturally conscious family. His mother was from Boston, Massachusetts and his father from Tuskegee, Alabama. In fact, his grandmother and the renowned educator Booker T. Washington were friends. Out of that friendship, she named her son, and Prof. Kamene’s father, Booker T. and he was named Booker T. Jr. after his father.
Prof. Kamene’s parents were married in Booker T. Sr.’s church, A.M.E. Zion Church, by Pastor Benjamin Robeson, brother to the great Paul Robeson. Prof. Kamene said of his family:
“The history of this culture was always within me. That’s where I learned the African American culture.”
Prof. Kamene’s first glimpse into his Afrikan heritage came from his Puerto Rican neighbors.
“My neighbors -Puerto Ricans- practiced Santeria, and after church I used to go to their home. That’s where I saw La Siete Potencias – The Seven Powers, the Orishas. I ain’t never seen no Black saints up on the wall of the Catholic Church I went to. They had those Catholic statues and pictures of Obatala, Yemoja, Oshun… and so I learned the Yoruba tradition of the Orishas through my Puerto Rican neighbors. I learned about Afrika through my Puerto Rican neighbors, but African American history from my family. So at a very young age I was brought up through the drum, the foods of the Caribbean, Puerto Rican spices, not the English spices. That was my evolution and then I met Professor Clarke when I was 12 ½.”
He recalls his first meeting with the legendary, scholar and historian Dr. John Henrik Clarke:
“Some ‘old heads’ – brothers who were a little bit older than us – would take us up to Harlem to experience certain things… and introduce us to different people. One of their events that we went to was a Professor John Henrik Clarke lecture where the young people sat in the front. At the end of the presentation, they brought us up to meet Professor Clarke and they introduced me by stating, “This is Booker T.” Professor Clarke responded, “Oh, Booker T., you’re going to be a great teacher one day!” That’s how my relationship with him started.”
By the time Prof. Kamene had left the military, he began to work more closely with Professor Clarke doing research for him on subjects such as uncovering the role of the United States in the Berlin Conference which carved up the Afrikan continent for European domination. He discovered that the U.S. was indeed present; however they were without portfolio, meaning they remained silent (but did make sure Liberia was not taken due to the rubber trade). Under Dr. Clarke’s tutelage, Professor Kamene gleaned many valuable lessons as well as his life mission.
“I realized the value of what he did for me and I in so many ways wanted to return the favor to him for what he did for me. When I was a young man he told me if he could give me anything, the one thing he would give me, if you could take everything away from me, the one thing he would give me is a sense of self-concept… a concept of self. That is what I try and do for our people, particularly our young people, a sense of self-concept… I began to develop this relationship about how I could best support our people and one of things was, of course, his recommendation that I write the curriculum. He said we need a curriculum.
(He told me) ‘We’ll have principles, we’ll have people with money, we’ll have buildings… The one thing we don’t have is a curriculum. Focus on the development of a curriculum.’”
The adoption of this mission has led Prof. Kamene to read and study voraciously as well as travel. His first trip to Kemet was in 1983 and on his 2nd trip in 1987 he remembered noticing the deep connection between our people separated by the Maafa.
Professor Kamene graduated from New York University in 1977, with a Bachelor of Arts in International Politics and with a minor in Caribbean Studies. He acquired his first Master degree in 1987 at Hunter College in New York City, majoring in history. He acquired his second Master’s degree in 1988, at City College in New York, with a major in Education Administration and Supervision. He worked in the New York City Board of Education for 31 years, retiring in 2009 and has devoted his life and energy toward the development of the Afrikan centered curriculum inspired in him by Dr. Clarke.

Most North Africans are browns skinned people and thus most of the Moors were also browns in the Middle Ages and many of moors has mixed with iberians people( spanish and portugese) genetically. and Many of moors had traveled back to north africa and the new world where both spanish / portugal had colonized areas especially the mid-south america continent and possibly part of southern united of america. therefore they were not blacks skinned , but there will always be some blacks or whites among the Moors at that time, as ancestors of today's North Africans Especially Moroccans. Moors means dark and not black in Greek language . Ethiopian means black in Greek language . The reason why North Africans were called darks or moors because they were a little darker skinned people compared to the Greeks and thus Europeans generally. There are three kinds of skin colors among most North Africans: light brown – moderat brown – dark brown – minorities are whites and blacks .Most or majority of ancient native Berbers or native North Africans as well as native Egyptians were browns skin-colored people neither whites nor blacks.
everybody keep in mind, my brother stated : that he only wished to present the information he has researched. He holds no intent of causing disruptance or negativity among you whatsoever. Your reaction is a representation of the self knowledge you have accumulated. my brother is speaking from the divine principle of the earth. The pride my brother takes in himself is an example of all humans to abide by. Strong minded, authentic, etc. Think for yourself and don't allow your own opinion to govern you as your own ignorance blinds you. The truth will speak with only understanding of the interpreter that comes in contact with. Stay woke.
pls before you make any statement and before you make any conclusion make sure you know enough about what you are talking about, otherwise you are going to look like a low IQ moron like this fucker
This is the description of the Arabs according to the reliable scholars of the past:
Al-Mubarrad said: "The Arabs used to take pride in their asmar and black complexion and they used to hate a red (white) color and very fair color and they said that it was the color of the Persians."قال المبرد"العرب كانت تفتخر بالسمرة و السواد و كانت تكره الحمرة و الشقرة و تقول انها من ألوان العجم"
Ibn Berry said: The Arabs describe their color as black and they describe the color of the Persians as red (white).و قال ابن بري: "العرب تصف ألوانها بالسواد و تصف ألوان العجم بالحمرة"
Ibn Sayyida said: "…They are Arabs and their colors are adam, asmar, and black."قال ابن سيده … فهم عرب، وألوانهم الأدمة والسمرة والسواد
Abu Taalib Al-Nahwi said: "… It is said that he meant that he was a pure Arab because most Arabs are adam complexioned.قال أبو طالب النحوي: … و قيل أراد أنه من خالص العرب و صميمهم لأن الغالب على ألوان العرب الأدمة.
Ibn Mandhour said: "The color of the Arabs is asmar and adam – except for a minority who aren't."قال ابن منظور: "ألوان العرب السمرة و الأدمة الا قليلا"
Mohamed ibn Ahmed Al-Azhari said:"Most Arabs are adam complexioned."* قال محمد بن أحمد الأزهري (صاحب التهذيب): "الغالب على ألوان العرب الأدمة".
========= For those who still don't know what "adam" or "al-udma" means, read what Ibn Al-Sayyidah, a reliable scholar of the Arabic language who lived from 1007 to 1066, says here:
السواد شدة الأدمة
"Black means shadid al-udma (very adam)"
He also says:
الأصدأ والأدلم وهما الشديدا الأدمة،
"Al-Asdaa and al-adlam are both shadid al-udma (very adam)."
Remember that adlam means tall and jet black. Asdaa means a redness so dark that it is near black. Al-Tha'aalabi says:
فإذا قَارَبَتْ حُمْرَتُهُ السَّوَادَ، فَهُوَ أَصْدَا مَأَخْوُذٌ مِن صَدَإٍ الحَدِيدِ
"If a person's redness is near black, then he is asdaa, which is taken from the sadaa (rust) of iron."
Ibn Sayyidah is used as a reference for all scholars of the Arabic language including Ibn Mandhour, the author of Lisan Al-Arab.
@Matt Maynard: Your heart was cut deep. I can just imagine that strong muscalar pale body in that hot Sun tilling that soil, and even toiling in Pharoah's Egypt. No, not really, that doesn't even make sense to a thief like you. Plus, flat asses are created by sitting too much. Sorry. Listen to the brother's teachings.
22:15, the great nnnnggrrr myth, occupied egypt is not particularly hot, the average temperature in Cairo is 82 degrees, there are hotter areas in southern europe, this nnnnnnggrrr is stupid as fuck
Not totally true about the potato. The Irish grew many crops but the English imposed a cas crop system that stole all the crops but potatoes which is why the famine happened.
