    The throne of H.I.M Emperor Haile Selassie at the National Museum of Ethiopia

    Looted by Italy in 1935 & returned in 1972.

    Due to melanin’s tremendous capacity to absorb these forms of light and use them as energy source to recharge itself and the cells in which it is located, melanin’s strategic relationship with the central nervous system also give us the capacity to immediately know what is happening to us within our external environment and to know from where the electrical exchange is coming. This gives human beings great ability to be aware of their internal environment and to constantly be recharged and regenerated from interacting with the external environment.

    You study THEIR books, you go to THEIR schools, you learn THEIR information, THEIR language, THEIR styles, THEIR perceptions, so when you come out of school you can do a humdinger of a job solving European’s problems, but you can’t solve your own. And then you DARE call yourself “intelligent?” C’mon. That’s the height of stupidity.
