Reflections....
With this month being the National Black History month, I thought it only right to reflect on the past and appreciate our heritage. We have seldomly thought to go all the way back past slavery times here in the US of A and take it back to the Biblical times when the Egyptian, Ethiopians and other ethnic races roamed the earth. We often think only back to the times when we struggled with freedom here, forgetting that in those times we not only struggled for freedom here but we fought for times past when we were honored members of the communities we lived in. You see if you trace times back to the Biblical days, we actually were queens, kings, princes and princesses of our native countries. Our heritages were even found in the bible, go back and look at the Ethiopian Eunuch, reading scriptures looking for understanding. We can even go back to the times when Cleopatra, and others ruled the lands. All people of color, although some were what we would considered foolish in their beliefs, but they were definitely honored in the native lands. So, with this month of reflections of times past, why not go back a little further past MLK, Rosa Parks, and all those other modern day Black Historians, and go back to the Biblical Black Historians who paved the way for our history here in the Americas. Learn of your heritage and appreciate your culture. We all need to Reflect, Research and Resolve to be better people today then on yesterday. |
