For centuries, Black people have been at the center of an ongoing struggle for identity, history, and divinity. While modern society often portrays African descendants as the marginalized, the lost, and the struggling, there exists a deeper, more profound question: Could Black people be the original children of the gods? And if so, does that explain why European and American systems have worked so tirelessly to erase African history, culture, and spirituality?
