Greetings Family, How are you? I am constantly adding to my collection of educational materials, especially my DVDS and CDS for sale, along with a small travel book, and a photo of what is believed to be the first known depiction of Christ--a depiction where he is clearly shown as African. I now have eleven excellent DVDs and five outstanding CDS for sale. The DVDS are $20.00 for each DVD, plus $2.00 mailing charges for each order. The new DVDs are produced by the Karast Unity Center of Afrakan Spirituality and they are absolutely excellent. The quality is superb! Here is the current list of DVDS and CDS with a bit of information about them: 1. AFRICANS IN ASIA In some ways this is my best DVD. It is technically superb and visually stunning. The DVD consists of a thirty minute interview and has been critically acclaimed. 2. THE BLACK PRESENCE IN INDIA This one, on a little discussed subject, looks at the Black presence in India from the most remote periods to modern times. It devotes considerable attention to the Dalits: The Black Untouchables of India. This is the oldest DVD in the series. 3. AN EVENING WITH RUNOKO RASHIDI This is my most popular DVD. It covers the entire range of the Global African Presence. There is a considerable introduction at the beginning, an extensive question and answer session at the end, and a lot of photos in between. The presentation, done almost three years ago in front of a group of largely high school students, is about two hours in length. 4. WHO IS THE ORIGINAL MAN? This is a slide presentation done at an African charter school in Philadelphia based on a theme suggested to me by some brothers in the Nation of Islam. It looks at African people as the Aboriginal People of the planet. 5. RUNOKO RASHIDI LIVE IN EGYPT This one is just what the title says. I am seen and interviewed in a series of Egyptian venues by the notable Philadelphia based film maker Bob Lott. These venues include the pyramids on the Giza Plateau, the Step Pyramid at Sakkara, the great Medinet Hapu mortuary temple at Luxor, and the Nubian Museum in Aswan. 6. EGYPT AND THE MOORS Also filmed by Bob Lott, this is a two part slide presentation- lecture filmed in Cordoba in Moorish Spain and Fez, one of the Imperial Cities of Northern Morocco. It looks at the history and ethnicity of the Moors, Arabs, and Ancient Egyptians. 7. RUNOKO RASHIDI IN THE BRITISH MUSEUM This one is the latest addition to the list. It is a mini-lecture and guided tour of the main Egyptian and Near Eastern collections of the famed British Museum. 8. THE AFRAKAN PRESENCE IN INDIA A new and outstanding look at the African presence in India. 9. THE AFRAKAN PRESENCE IN SOUTHEAST AND EAST ASIA This one looks at Africans in Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, China, Mongolia, and Japan. 10. THE AFRICAN PRESENCE IN THE AMERICAS The African presence in the Americas from remote antiquity to modern times. 11. THE AFRAKAN PRESENCE IN THE MIDDLE EAST The African presence in Soutwest Asia from ancient to modern times. The CDS are as follows: 1. AN INTERVIEW WITH CHEIKH ANTA DIOP A two part television interview with Dr. Diop on the African origins of humanity and civilization. 2. MARCUS GARVEY SPEAKS Two speeches by the one and only Marcus Mosiah Garvey, one in a studio and the other live, live, live! 3. THE BALLOT OR BULLET, BY MALCOLM X Brother Malcolm's classic 1964 speech that seems so pertinent to the times in which we live! 4. KWAME NKRUMAH SPEAKS TO AFRICAN FREEDOM FIGHTERS A marvelous and insightful, almost prophetic, 1960 speech given by Kwame Nkrumah in Accra, Ghana that is as relevant today as it was when it was first delivered. 5. AFRICANS IN THE EARLY EUROPE AND THE AMERICAS A sixty minute, two-part radio interview coordinated and directed by Global African Presence Egroup Moderator Brother Nnamdi. Each CD is $10.00; this includes the mailing charges. THE GLOBAL AFRICAN PRESENCE TRAVEL NOTES BY RUNOKO RASHIDI This small text, sixty-two pages in length, is a recent collection of some of my best travel notes. Among the nations explored and overviewed in the work are Ethiopia, Zimbabwe, Japan, Panama, India, Thailand, and Aboriginal Australia. The booklet sells for $7.50. Please add $2.00 for mailing costs. CHRIST IN GLORY Also known as the Coptic Christ, the photo was captured in the Coptic Museum in Cairo, Egypt in March 2001. The painting has now been altered! But my photo clearly shows Jesus and the disciples as Black men. Believed to be the oldest, or certainly one of oldest and most authentic, such image documented. The photo sells for $5.00. Please add $2.00 for mailing costs.
