Besouro (The Assailant in the U.S.) [Moviespora]
Saw this epic film at the L.A. Pan-African Film Festival some years ago when it was in Culver City Been sharing it ever since. Enjoy!
Three Es, Empowerment & Enjoymet\” #DrClarneSayings #DrDDClayborne #Afrispora #AfrisporaMindstateouro [The Assailant in the U.S.]
Why not Beetle of The Beetle? I always was and still am perplexed by the Drastic difference in name. It may be nothing YET a Connective Pan-Afrik/can (Pan-Human) artistic, socio-cultural and even geopolitical expression is not Fully Exploited in beneficial ways and manners as it should be.
In my view a truly Missed Opportunity of demonstrating what I refer to as “The Three Es”! = “Enlightenment, Empowerment & Enjoyment” #DrClarneSayings #DrDDClayborne #Afrispora #AfrisporaMindstate
Thanks for this documentary my Triton, my brotherĀ Takeo Wong!
Sun Walkers by Jneiro Jarel (Dr. Who Dat) [Ancestral Wisdom 2016]
Just appeared in my mind that go back to my oldest draft-moded blog and work my wat through all 133 of them. Drafts are like socio-cultural placemarkers… Read more “Sun Walkers by Jneiro Jarel (Dr. Who Dat) [Ancestral Wisdom 2016]”

Well done my folks!
Dang, bruh! RIP Mac Miller [SALUTE!]
Upset about needing to show proper respects in Reblogging for the wrong reason.
Props since you popped on the tellie with my folks, Anderson .Paak…But when I heard/saw him flowing the “Hip 2 Da Game” track by Lord Finesse, I knew he was official hip hop with it.
“…original Black man…” …
when I was in the DMV for graduate school at Howard University (M.A. in History, Africa focus) I felt fresher than most bumpin’ OC, Lord Finesse + De La Soul + Omar Lye Fook (my favorite singer after Stevie Wonder of all-time — and they have performed to gether so check him out)
I knew he was dope on the mic even more so when I heard him with Kendrick Lamar bringing the lyrical goods
– way to leave so thoughtful word play—
“…in an instant I’ll be gone…”
Yup smh with respect.
Man this sucks I dug Mac Miller and was proud of him as an artist. He had dexterity in his flows. Got me flashing back after that Lord Finesse beat having track came on. I had forgotten I had even heard that a longer time which further confirmed his dopeness to me. I am a Lord Finesse since like 1994-5 and worn out his album as a newbie to the Eastern seaboard.
“I’m white boy awesome.”
Listen to Knock Knock – Mac Miller by aykon97 #np on #SoundCloud
https://soundcloud.com/aykon97/knock-knock-mac-millerhen I heard of his death earlier and I sensed there was a strong Vibe I felt this musical artist.
Listen to FACES by Mac Miller #np on #SoundCloud
Yup as my good friend, Oxygen Eternal (Django, co-host of All of the Above Radio) says and applies here.
“Mac Miller was a keeper of ‘The Styles’…” #DrClayborneSayings

‘Why I’ll never stand again for ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ (SALUTE!)
– Thom Hartmann’s valuable comments start at the 7:10 mark.
KING: Why I’ll never stand again for ‘The Star-Spangled BannerĀ by Sean King
Thank you Thom Hartmann for being soĀ EXPLICITLY CLEAR as is routine in your handling of knowledge.
So Colin Kaepenick KNOWS ‘THAT OF WHICH HE TALKS’ AND WILL NOTĀ STAND FORĀ and instead chose to kneel about honorably!
Francis Scott Key was WACK (a mild understatement)!

Jeremy Scahill (INFORMary)
INFORMary = Where from am I INFORMed?
Identified on this day, in order to better equip me by clearing Connecting key INFORMants that I STRONGly recommend to others to be used to aid others in achieving one or all of the “Three Es = Enlightenment, Empowerment & Enjoyment”
#DrClayborneSayings #AfrisporaMindstate
Jeremy Scahill from Democracy Now! days in the early to mid-2000s. This guy is On It from all I can tell for a LONG WHILE … way overdue blog mention. Looking to interweave Tha Realness at all times for the better of humankind via a more INFORMed and INFORMal(ity) operations among us and our folks (friends and folks) and socio-cultural groups.
May seem Deep and it is. Requires drawing from deep inside one’s self in various ways.

Since, BUT Only for, this Post-Stroke Rehab period, AFRISPORA has turned into only a blog/vlog.
Appreciate my real world and online folks that have ‘Held Me Down’ as I probably me first heard Q-Tip say in a verse. It radiated a MEANING then almost 30 years ago.
It is easy yet hard to explain but should one have to…? As Jalen Rose puts it, “It’s ‘Cultural!’ Yup, I agree bruh.

SALUTE! ~ Black Panther’s director: ‘Brotha Kofi’ Ryan Coogler
Kofi is Ryan Coogler’s Akan Day Name. Like mine is Kwame (Saturday born), Kofi indicates that he was born on a Friday in 1986 in his case. Each day carries a variety of attributable spiritual (thus behavioral) traits.
He is symbolically my/our folks now, so he gets a nickname as a term of endearment.
Asante bruh!
