In truth, the persecution, and enslavement of Africans and their religions has been on-going since so-called “biblical times.” What few also do not realize is that many of their ancestors who were captured and enslaved in the West already descend from ancient ancestral slave Sibs (denominations) such as the Tchamba, long before their arrival in America. This is one of the reasons why many report their “souls feeling so ancient,” but cannot place a meaning to its source. Because of the way in which anthropological events are recorded and understood by the West, these crucial ancestral connections are never acknowledged or are denied, or are simply poorly understood. The African experience is not static. It is an ancient spiritual continuum that spans the whole of time and all nations and all indigenous spiritual paths. It is the Ancestors who holds the sacred knowledge to those ancient spiritual connections. Without them no matter what path an African/Diaspora might follow, they will never find their way home.
