Pan African Fails Because It Won't Recognize Different Bloodlines And Traditions by KingSango(m): 8:17pm On Oct 29, 2017 |
There are different bloodlines and if you mix with them and produce offspring then your children will be raised up in that tradition. Say you are Yoruba man and you marry an Igbo woman, and that woman has twins, well in her culture she and the twins are an abomination and can't go home. Your children will be abused by angry relatives who see the twins as an abomination. Now twins are worshiped in Yoruba culture so no issue. We are not all the same Bloodline even though we are of the same race. Race is a social construct invented by the Europeans to help assist him with his low numbers so gangs of Europeans grouped themselves together based upon the false construct of race. Pre-slavery and colonialism Africans saw themselves as belonging to different races on the African continent. The dream of one Nigeria, one Africa, one African world, only goes so far as individual bloodlines are willing to surrender their traditional practices that might be detrimental or a negative to another group. The notion that women can't join us in prayer is one that not shared by Yoruba culture, how can would Yoruba people stand by while a woman is denied her right to pray with the rest? There are many cultural issues that are far more critical than the false concept of race that go into our bloodline. And what I mean by bloodline is not DNA but rather a generation set pattern, where you have adults instilling the same traditions into their children that was instilled into them. This is what is now happening in the U.S where African Americans who have engaged in Greek Roman pederasty culture in secret are imposing homosexuality upon the rest of the population. We are not of the same bloodlines and not everyone has homosexuals, which implies pedophiles, running in their families. We are not all Christians and Muslims and those of us who don't embrace these religions can't have it imposed upon us just as we would never impose our ancient traditions upon others. We have to recognize that bloodlines is the root cause of alot of tension and hatred among Africans. PARANORMAL BLOODLINES It is believed that only special royal bloodlines possessed paranormal powers like the Cwezi. King Rwabugiri IV the great, an ancient Rwandan king was believed to have possessed paranormal powers along with one of his wives. Muhumuza. Rwabugiri was the first king to meet with the Europeans, he resisted slave trade and saved the remains of the Rwandan borders during the scramble and partition for Africa. Also these bloodlines begun breaking the customary laws practicing forbidden customs such as eating prohibited meats, foods, certain fish, reptiles, marrying into hostile or forbidden bloodlines, murdering, breaking oath, abominations, inciting and obtaining curses, abandoning own customs, sodomy, laying down with animals etc. Ability to possess these mystical powers survived among some African peoples until 19th century when heavy interbreeding between clans, tribes and races took place therefore weakening special bloodlines. Notice here the different traditions BY BEATRICE PORBENI Africa is known for its rich culture, heritage, and love for customary traditions. Some African tribal traditions are quite mysterious and tend to fascinate people within and outside the continent. For many years, these tribal communities have lived without many modern comforts and their traditions may live on for decades to come. Here are some captivating traditions from several tribes in Africa. The Khweta Ceremony Southern African tribes such as the Zulus and Xhosas are known to have practiced their “manhood” ceremony for years. The ceremony involves a young boy leaving his family home to prove his manhood. When the boys are of age, they are sent to spend several days or weeks in a lodge during winter, where they are often put through rigorous and often time, dangerous rituals such as continuous dancing until exhaustion, and non-medical circumcision. Kidnap your bride In Sudan, the Latuka tribe, has a custom where a man kidnaps the woman he wants to marry. Elderly members of his family go and ask the girl’s father for her hand in marriage, and if her dad agrees, he beats the suitor as a sign of his acceptance of the marriage. However, if the father refuses, the man might forcefully marry the woman. The spitting blessings The spitting blessing is an unusual tradition, practiced by the members of the Maasai tribe in Kenya and Tanzania. They spit on the newborn babies as a way of blessing the baby. They believe that if they praise a baby, it will be cursed. Maasai warriors will also spit on their hands before shaking the hand of elders in the village. Measuring wealth with cows The Kenyan Pokot tribe measures its wealth by how many cows a family has. The people of Pokot are either “corn people” or “cow people”, essentially what they cultivate on their land, but almost all Pokot people measure their wealth by cows because the number of women a man can marry is predominantly determined by the number of cows he has. Beating the suitor The Sharo tradition is practiced by the Fulani tribe, particularly those in West Africa. Sharo occurs when two young men want to marry the same woman. To compete for her hand in marriage, they must beat one another up. The men must quash the signs of pain during their fight. The winner is the man who takes the beating without showing signs of pain and his reward is the woman as his wife. Women can’t grieve elders The Suku tribe, In Southwestern Congo, pay homage to their elders and ancestors when they die, by holding a ceremony in the clearing of a forest. In the event, gifts and offerings are presented, but according to the tradition, outsiders and all the women are banned from attending the event. Bull jumping The Ethiopian Hamers’ have practiced bull jumping tradition for many years; it allows the involvement and participation of the whole community. During the ceremony, young boys are expected to run, jump and land on the back of a bull before then try to run past the backs of numerous bulls. The young men do this several times, and usually Unclad in order to prove their manhood. While the women of the tribe dance, blow brass horns and scream as the men perform. http://guardian.ng/life/culture-lifestyle/fascinating-african-traditions/ List of pederasty bloodlines among Africans: https://theriseofsodom..com/2016/04/devil-worship-witchcraft-and-sodomy.html Lalasticlacla |

Its true, weak bloodlines exist, I am reciting an Odu of Ifa, it says, corruption is the rampant in bloodlines that are frail. This philosophy isnt something I am making up but is ancient lessons from the Egun contained in Ifa. Ase. Love Sango |

KingSango: Misinformation. This is 2017, not 1817. Twins are not abused in 21st century Igboland by 'angry relatives who see the twins as an abomination.' A lot of Igbos want them now, and they are everywhere in Igboland treated with great fondness. This is what happens when one's source of information about a people are books and films set in a very different age and time. 2 Likes |

RedboneSmith: By whose authority that you post disagreements with my words? It was the ancient Alaafin of Oyo, he himself an ibeiji, who expanded Oyo Empire, he was and still is Africas greatest king, Sango put an end to twin sacrifice among Yoruba people. Now who is the authority over Igboland like the Alaafin is the official traditional ruler of all Yoruba people? Is he your Mr. Kanu who has disappeared? There is no empire of Igboland who put an end to the varied, some good, but evil practices by Igbos. Yoruba Obas have authority over other Obas with the Alaafin head of them all, some empires only have one king and the red caps and chiefs. Igboland has no such organization, they are a loose body of people ruled by different kings and villages practicing opposing customs. Some Igbo towns still kill twins and there is no unified law to stop them because its their custom. Ase, Love Sango |
