This site is a elementary introduction to graphic arts and relative geography and history imaged by African, Asian and many European heritage artists added to make certain that gifted and talented youth comprehend that, ... Africa and Africans are now and have always been part of a greater humanity of men and women birthed by mothers of nature (GOD) and not to be defined by skin color; but rather "the content of their character" [Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.] Some images are displayed in our notional galleries to commemorate the lives of Paul Cuffee, Richard Allen, William Lee, Alexander Dumas & Alexander Pushkin to aid in relative historical enlightenment of new youth generations, ... born after the turbulent energy of color conscious revisions by many artists of African, Asian and European heritage who sought to revisit African geography and history as topics of interest in histories of the:
A reconstruction of Homo erectus at the Westfälisches Museum für Archäologie, Herne, Germany
1. Rift Valley Africans (Homo-Sapiens) 2. Nile River Africans 3. Bantu Africans 4. Savanna Africans 5. Berber Africans 6. Khemites&Kamites (AncientLower&UpperEgypt) 7. Semites (Mesopotamia Jews, Syrians, & Babylonians) 8. Aksumites (Kushites, Nubians, Arabs and Somalians) 9. Hellenists (Greeks, Macedonians, Slavs) 10. Latin (Romans, Gauls, Spaniards) 11. Persians (Parthians, Armenians, Kurds, Turks) 12 Moslems (Arabs, Berbers, Copts, Asians, Europeans).
And, yes there were many men and women who imagined, perceived and even proclaimed they or others known to them were not born of mothers but rather made in their own image of themselves as Gods. The birth of Jesus was a proclamation to the opposite that all men were born of women, and etc. etc. etc .... that many kings and philosophers, and priests found disheartening about their own existence. The story is as old or new as artists and philosophers care to show or tell it. Website of Artist Michael Brown We want new youth to perceive that geography, history and philosophy of life matter in all the topics presented by helpful artists whether about religion, wars or any other topics, including you and your mother or gifted child you may give birth to? The most helpful graphic and sculpture artists are inclined to be scholarly in depicting what they perceive to be a truthful reflection of a humanity that began in Africa and lineages, linkage and interests thereto, ... and therein throughout the eras of all empires and emperors prior to centuries of racist reasoning and color coding. For this reason, we have decided to add images of Roman and other kings and queens of the earth beyond imagined truths learned by preachers and teachers of bible stories minus what many millions of believers have seen and heard. Very few people who preach or teach youth of African heritage are scholars researching and reading or reviewing any books beyond what they were taught to read and believe. Website of Artist Frank Frazier Our hope is that new generations of artists will help explore and expose truths in the faith up from the past so that new generations will be better believers for the sake of "goodness" by any other name. Indeed, if it is good to know about JESUS, then it is necessary to know about the Kings and Queens that tried to change and/or destroy and modify HIS ever-lasting philosophy regarding "the least of us?" New Serial: OLD TOPICS FOR NEW ARTISTS Site also has a display of various sculptures from ancient sources inclusive of Central African Kingdoms, East African Kingdoms, North African Kingdoms, South African Kingdoms, and West African Kingdoms. We have added more ancient historical source information about kings and queens that mattered in making the world experienced by ancestors in Africa, Asia, and Europe because geography and history matters a lot in the minds of enlightened and educated artists in depicting truths as they dare imagine it to be.
We want you and your generation of peers to research and find beauty and virtues in your sight and souls, and not let anyone turn you around to the past we have overcome. We have added a lot more art and historical references for you to review since your last visit. Most items displayed are for sell via contacting individual artists or distributor-retailers such as: We welcome links to websites hosted by artists and distributors. No fees are charged. Send us your link via email. The site purpose is not for art critics or collectors but rather to offer visuals & text to your knowledge and understanding of the world your generation #67 (births 1980--2009) have been born into. It will help affirm for you and others around the world (including movie and television script writers, actors and directors) that most people of African heritage are not now or have ever been as depicted by the majority of American mass media including: 1. majority journalists like Henry Morton Stanley that helped colonize Africa; 2. fiction writers like Alice Walker who denigrate males of African heritage; 3. screen writers depicting Black men as heathens that denigrate females; 4. modern minstrels on Black Entertainment Television that portray all above.
We believe a liberal arts education such as was afforded to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. when he was a student at Morehouse College afforded him an opportunity to see and hear what others (pro and con) had seen and heard about JESUS, ... and allowed him to formulate his own beliefs about believing or not in the philosophy and teachings of our man from Galilee as the CHRIST.
It was in Aksum and Upper Egypt, not the evil Roman Empire, where the new faith was kept for two centuries, and long before tolerated by the Romans. And, it is in Africa where functional faith (not to be confused with worship rituals and tithes) ... must be redeemed for "the least of us," as disciples like Kwame N'Krumah sought to do, such as "Love Ye One Another and Do Unto Others As You Would Have Them Do Unto You" .......................... ie: teaching and learning to build, heal and help others be useful in the cause of African renaissance to integrate generation #68 (births 2010-2039) of "the least of us" in a heaven on earth now enjoyed by billions of human beings born of love, hope and faith. Being a believer of African heritage is also believing that Africa can also change via enlightenment and education of its gifted and talented ten percent to be useful to the continental needs for the categories and classifications skills summarized on our menu websites: Good News: Millions of youthful bodies, minds and souls of African, American, Asian and European heritage, were able to travel, visit, observe and learn about people and places like the faithful scholars in Ghana, and the Ark of the Covenant Church in Ethiopia with lineages back to Solomon and Jesus. The African Union is looking for both! Trade and Aid! And Obama, sure!
After many centuries of work and wonder by 67 generations of believers since the birth of JESUS, we now know there were many persons including Mother Mary who went out and told/wrote what they had "seen and heard." Many went to Aksum (modern day Ethiopia) and Egypt where the good news survived to be told until finally tolerated in the Roman Empire. Yes, many helped keep the faith! Bad News: Too many youth, including those otherwise well educated, are being lost to the faith of their ancestral fathers and mothers because of ignorance about it's functions.
In fact, many fathers and mothers of past generations sought to find JESUS in a box, a temple of sorts, with many rituals, rites and preaching limited to well organized religion such as practiced by Pharisee priesthoods on left; ... rather than the greatest philosophy of life in human history made possible by the man from Galilee. Too many students no longer study the various philosophies (including Aristotle). Except for heroic men and women believers like them, most of us would still be serfs and slaves in: Africa, North, Central and South America, the many Caribbean Islands, all of Europe and certainly all the patriarchal cultures of Asia including Israel and Arabia for sure. In fact, all people of African heritage would still suffer the many degenerate cultures that propagated polygamy and subsequent slavery of unloved youth. So, suffer yourselves to learn of TRUTH by any name.
Organized religion such as practiced by the Jewish Pharisee priest (above left and bigoted) and Ethiopian Orthodox priest (left and wrong) are important to remind you of people and matters that existed before you. Heavenly lives on earth will be inherited by those of your generation who love to learn how to live the lives of goodness such as: ... building bridges in Africa and healing mothers in name of the functional Jesus who was a model carpenter, fisherman, teacher, physician, shepherd and all the other functions of learning and hard work that matter in making lives better for "the least of us." And, both males and females ought have sense enough to comprehend importance of fathers and mothers in labor and love for the sake of generating goodness by sweat and toil. We dare not ignore or forget the functions of life that build highways and passageways between bridges to good lives.
Being ignorant of these issues that matter is not a virtue! And ignoring civil needs in Africa or expecting others to care about what you do not, ... is not what Jesus asked of us! And, you. Older generations are literally begging the gifted and talented of you to suffer yourself to help encourage others of your generation to allow teachers to teach less HE who sent goodness will send no more, and leave you to what existed before you were: ... conceived in love between a man and woman; nourished in the womb; born of mother-love; nurtured to the light; motivated to seek enlightenment; and educated in the spirit of goodness and the LIGHT that brought us UP from hell on earth? Shine your light! Do something with your life that is helpful and useful to "the least of us." Don't use your gifts and talents to be a Aksumite opportunist or another affirmative action ingrate like you know who! Maybe you will not be anointed to a priesthood of pretentious Black men and women or get admitted to halls and corridors of power in high places; but, you will indeed have opportunities, by and by, to be like them or use your energies to help uplift "the least of us."

The Church at Lalibela in Ethiopia was carved in the rocks of modern day Ethiopia. It was one of first church buildings for believers that was constructed by first generation in first century to embrace Philosophy of the man from Galilee. Many of Africa knew Jesus in the flesh; and, many more witnessed and feared Roman Empire crucifixions (thousands per year) in Northern Africa. 
And, lack abilities to comprehend that a world without the philosophy of JESUS, ... could not have generated the good deeds of people like Locke, Jefferson, Wilberforce, Douglass, Tubman (right and righteous), Lincoln, N'Krumah, King or Mandela.
