MANHOOD TEACHING #12

Gii Taa'se gordy Williams Sr. - African Mohican Oneida
PART 12

"On American soil Africans and Indians intermarried creating terror within whites. That union is the reason some of the existing tribes are alive today, and the reason millions of Africans are sound of mind and spirit today. The African slave of our homelands retained a great deal. The rhythms are profound. I can go on and on about it. As a musician I have played a wide variety of music. Hip Hop is a powerful voice. The underground Hip Hop culture is deeper, hip, and in tuned with many things. It has become the griot of a people, and peoples around the globe. Its very core is African." ~Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories
