Alkebulanians, In this episode, I address the intense backlash regarding my comments on North Africa when I pushed back against a video of a Moroccan woman gaslighting black Africans about her African identity. I break down the historical truth of Arab invasions versus indigenous origins to dismantle such rhetoric directed at Black Africans, arguing that true unity is impossible until we face these uncomfortable historical facts head-on.Chapters* 00:00 - Intro: Why North Africans Are Annoyed With Me* 01:10 - The IShowSpeed Incident: Racism in Algeria & Morocco* 03:00 - AFCON Fallout: The Battle for African Identity* 04:52 - The Viral Video: “We Are Not Black Enough To Be African”* 07:20 - The Receipt: Why No Black Presidents in North Africa?* 11:40 - History Class: The Arab Invasion vs. Indigenous Berbers* 16:00 - The Gaslighting: Calling Us Racist for Pointing Out Racism* 20:51 - The “Cleopatra” Documentary I Can’t Release Yet* 26:45 - Announcement: “Captain Africa” & The Comic Book Launch* 33:00 - The 1,000 Subscriber Goal: Why We Need Our Own Platforms To hear more, visit www.alkebulan.media
