In this week’s class we discussed how Africa is the origin of all things. I learned about how important it is to connect to our roots and learn about our heritage. We looked at examples of how our African ancestry is being preserved through the efforts of scholars and researchers. Overall what I took from this class is that I am a part of a very rich heritage and culture.
From the presentation about Egyptian society I learned that the basis of almost everything comes from our Egyptian ancestors. The Egyptians are responsible for giving us many different intellectual ideas such as language, math, and astronomy. Without the Egyptians we wouldn’t have most of the modern concepts we take for granted everyday.
I learned that it is important to preserve our heritage and keep treasures that document the journey our people have been through. By keeping these elements of our past sacred and treasured are able to look back on the struggles that our ancestors have been through and progress towards a brighter future.
Our ancestors worked to get us to the point that we are at now. We must continue to achieve intellectual excellence. By creating our own history and becoming apart of a heritage that goes back to the beginning of time we place ourselves in a position to be prominent members of a culturally rich people.
