Nice to meet yall.

If you are wondering about my username, the Hindu goddess Kali is described as Black. I have often wondered if there is an African connection there.

you'd be surprised how many religions (if not all) are derived from africa.

Greek gods were black.
Jesus was black.
Buddha was black.

I can go on, even figures like Medusa were black (the snakes were actually dreads).

Africa is the "motherland" because it began not only life, but pretty much everything else in the world..or what lead to what it is today.
