www.bittermedicineblogs.com – On today’s show we discuss the Bitter Medicine Book Club September reading: “Fighting for Honor: The History of African Martial Art in the Atlantic World” by T. J. Desch Obi (Author)! Even though September is over, you can still read the book and join the discussion on our blogsite! Listen to find out more.

About the Book:
The presence of African influence and tradition in the Americas has long been recognized in art, music, language, agriculture, and religion. T. J. Desch Obi explores another cultural continuity that is as old as eighteenth-century slave settlements in South America and as contemporary as hip-hop culture. In this thorough survey of the history of African martial arts techniques, Obi maps the translation of numerous physical combat techniques across three continents and several centuries to illustrate how these practices evolved over time and are still recognizable in American culture today. Some of these art traditions were part of African military training while others were for self-defense and spiritual discipline. Grounded in historical and cultural anthropological methodologies, Obi's investigation traces the influence of well-delineated African traditions on long-observed but misunderstood African and African American cultural activities in North America, Brazil, and the Caribbean. He links the Brazilian martial art capoeira to reports of slave activities recorded in colonial and antebellum North America. Likewise Obi connects images of the kalenda African stick-fighting techniques to the Haitian Revolution. Throughout the study Obi examines the ties between physical mastery of these arts and changing perceptions of honor. Including forty-five illustrations, this rich history of the arrival and dissemination of African martial arts in the Atlantic world offers a new vantage for furthering our understanding of the powerful influence of enslaved populations on our collective social history. (Amazon)

About the Author:
T. J. Desch Obi received his doctorate in African history from the University of California, Los Angeles. His research focuses on historical ethnography, which he explores through the lens of African and African diaspora martial arts. He is currently an assistant professor of African and African diaspora history at the City University of New York's Baruch College. (Amazon)

https://www.bittermedicineblogs.com – On today’s show we discuss using business approaches to organizing the Black community. We begin the discussion identifying reasons why people commit treason because there are a lot of traitors within the Black community. Next, using business concepts, we discuss enemies and traitors: Businesses identify their enemies so their teams know who to focus their efforts on; otherwise teams fall apart by finding villains within their own ranks. We see this happening often in the Black community amongst the likes of Tariq Nasheed, Umar Johnson, Boyce Watkins etc. Organize, identify your enemies, and your traitors.

https://www.bittermedicineblogs.com – On today’s show we have a discussion with Karl Hezekiah, Curator of the Bitter Medicine Book Club, about the August reading “The Psychopathic Racial Personality and Other Essays” by Dr. Bobby E. Wright. #panafricanism #blacknationalism #blackempowerment
 
About the Book:
(Dr. Bobby E. Wright) Presents a thought-provoking examination of the group personality of Europeans, as manifest in their behavior towards Black people. In the essay ""The Psychopathic Racial Personality,"" Dr. Bobby Wright contends that viewing white behavior towards nonwhites as psychopathic provides a new lens through which to analyze and combat the actions and aims of Europeans. The essay ""Black Suicide: Lynching by Any Other Name"" positions the phenomenon of Black suicide within the context of centuries of white genocide. In other essays Dr. Wright discusses ways in which to best educate Black children and sheds new light on the evolution of white supremacy. – Amazon
