I had no ideal Mansa Musa and Montezuma are the same person. I need to brush up on my African antiquities. All in all, this was a good documentary, and I will be copping the DVD when it comes out. There was a good balance of that, as is needed in dealing with such difficult subjects. In addition to dropping knowledge on history and contemporary topics, all of the people speaking were able to present things in a refreshing and humorous way. From the knowledge of Ancient Egypt(Kemet) to the ancient empires of West Africa, to the Moor influence in medieval Europe, the presenters spoke on things from antiquity to the present day in 2 hours. Be forewarned: should you see this film, expect your assertions on many topics to be challenged.ДЄ great deal of subject matter was covered in this documentary. With a cast like this, you have to go in knowing that no punches will be pulled.

Coleman whose presentations I have attended is also in the program along with other Africanist scholars. Phil Valentine, Shahrazad Ali, and Umar Johnson.

Tariq brings on some heavy-hitters for this one. Directed by best selling author and host of the вЂњMack LessonsвЂќ podcast Tariq Nasheed, Hidden Colors deals with the often untold history of Africans all over the world. This film is about the history of African cultural influence in the Americas, Asia, and Europe. Last night at the Cinema Village, I attended a packed showing of the new documentary Hidden Colors.
