Series OF Events
Greeting and well wishes to all! Its been two and a half years since i started this blog but after only two posts I had to leave you. MY mom life as well as mine was changed by Alzheimers ,followed by lung cancer. SHE went to meet her maker FEB.2012 and its taken me this long to get myself together. Today is 10-11-2012, I will have new information available this weekend and will continue to add new and informative posts. I never stopped outlining material for your enlightenment. One thing I discovered was that I had too much info for this blog. SO due to the vast amount of information I've gathered this site can not address other issues surrounding Black History. I will be adding four new POSTS which are as follows. BLACK HISTORICAL ACHIEVEMENT DESPITE SLAVERY 1401---to---2012. despiteslavery.blogspot.com, BLACK EUROPEAN HISTORY--REMOVING THE VEIL removingtheveil.blogspot.com BLACK ABSTRACT THOUGHT--CONTRIBUTIONS THAT CHANGED THE WORLD--blackabstractthoughts.blogspot.com REAL TALK--realtalksurvival.blogspot.com. The first blog historical achievements despite slavery deals with over coming on another level ! contributions made to society during turbulent times to say the least covering the years from the early 1400's to the present. Black european history removing the veil deals with borrowed. stolen ,or assumed HISTORY not accredited to black people. BLACK ABSTRACT THOUGHTS --ideas that changed the world from art science medicine,etc.etc..Anl last but not least REAL TALK a place where we can talk about todays issues and how we can help each other during these economic times. Again I'm sorry for the delay but I will make it up to you. Thank you for your patience.MUCH LOVE--PEACE OUT!!!

SAKANOUYE TAMURAMARO -BLACK SHOGUN
Sakanouye Tamuramaro was born in 758A.D.and died 811. He was an African whose family had migrated from Korea many generations earlier. He was known as the Paragon of Japanese Military Virtue, the first to hold the title of Sei-i-Tai Shogun. Sak-Tamura's public and family life is well documented. He lived during the early Heian Period (794-1185c.e.) a time in history which gave birth to the Samurai Warriors who modeled themselves after Tamuramaro. (must have a drop of black blood to be Samurai Warrior) . After the failed attempts by the Japanese Military troops against the AINU the emperor decided to call upon Tamura. His success was one of his greatest military achievements. The Emperor bestowed the title of Sei-i-Tai Shogun upon Tamura making him the first to hold this title. He was also the first military statesman of Japan.
Later generation of military officers visited his tomb to ask for strength before starting on their military campaigns.

Before We Begin
This blog-site is being established to provide the serious student of black history an additional avenue for gathering information. There's a wealth of little talked about or over " LOOKED" information about the history of black people before slavery with in and surrounding the psyche associated with the transatlantic slavetrade! Over whelming amounts of information exist on a global level from the beginning of recorded history. I would like to share my findings with my fellow cyber seekers out there. From time to time i will recommend a book or author, for additional research. My hope -being an amateur historian as i call myself is to inspire the new generation to step it up a notch. In Germany, Russia,France, just to name a few are volumes of information hidden in a country's language. I believe that the information presented will also show how inter connected we all have always been, we were just known by different names in the remote past. One more thing I really need to touch on before i proceed! History & Religion walk hand in hand the farther back we go . But you must first understand the cultures. Everything will not be presented in chronological order, I have my faults. last thing if you don't mind,I would like to share with you the "Event Horizon" of my amateur existence. I'm in Atlanta when two exhibits open, one being king tut the other known as the first emperor. the history surrounding the boy king we kinda know. the radio ads stated that the first emperor was born two hundred years before Christ, ruler of the known world,etc,etc. this is the emperor that had the life size terracotta army with soldiers, horses and chariots--that's life size statues! now what got to me most was the fact that they didn't tell us he was of BLACK heritage. you see during this time and space,china was ruled by the CHIN dynasty who happen to be black. that really got to me that out of forty people no one knew. WOW [my people are ignorant from lack of knowledge] WOW again. SO here we are,so buckle up and enjoy the ride were headed for that next out-posting up ahead--Sakanouye Tamuramaro aka The First Shogun!
