⁣Link Up Podcast — Ep 9 | Ft sbA Akinjide Bonotchi Montgomery (Black Power, Mdw Ntr, Restoring Ma'At)
Hosts: Niara Esi Ìjèawelē Ọmọlará Kwento & Bakari Kwadwo Ọbatayé Kwento

Akɔaba, Woezɔ, Oɔbaake (welcome) to another episode of Link Up Podcast, where we connect with Abibifoɔ (Black People) doing Black powerful work across Abibiman (the Black Land) and the diaspora.

In this episode, we Link Up with sbA Akinjide Bonotchi Montgomery, experiencing the Black Power movement in Detroit, seeing the need to learn Mdw Ntr, becoming a long standing Abibitumi instructor. sbA Bonotchi is a straight-shooting warrior scholar who shows the importance of learning Mdw Ntr, and how it is needed towards building Black Power. He takes us through his upbringing in Detroit, the strength and discipline of his mother, the Black nationalist environment of the 1960s and 70s, the Panthers, the Shrine of the Black Madonna, COINTELPRO, and the political consciousness that shaped a generation before it was deliberately crushed.

We discuss his journey to Kemet with Okunini Dr. Ben, learning Mdw Ntr through serious study, becoming a teacher with Abibitumi, and why the language must lead to action rather than empty intellectual collection. sbA Bonotchi shares the practical power of Mdw Ntr, the danger of words like artificial, unnatural, democracy, spirituality, integration, diversity, and why Black people must stop letting others define reality for us. This is a conversation about the work required to think, speak, and act from a perspective of what is real.

* Stay tuned after the conversation for a special animated cartoon episode. *

This is a conversation about raised consciousness becoming raised behavior, Black love as institution, and the work required to bring the whole family Black home.

Feel free to share your thoughts, and Link Up!
