AFURAKA/AFURAITKAIT Nanasom Nhoma is an nhoma (n'-hoh-mah), a journal, focused on Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African) Ancestral Religion. Our nhoma is divided into seven sections based on the Abosom (ah'-boh-sohm), the Deities, of the solar, lunar and planetary bodies which govern the Akan 7-day week. The themes governing each section are:

KRADIN
(Soul-Name; Spiritual Identity)

ABUSUAKUW and ABATUMM
(Ethnic group; Cultural identity) and (Melanin; Physiological Identity)

MMARA NE KYI
(Divine Law and Divine Hate)

NHWEHWEMU
(Critical Examination)

NKRABEA
(Function)

AHOODEN and AHOOFE
(Health, Strength) and (Beauty)

AHODWIRA
(Ritual; Self-Purification).


AFURAKA/AFURAITKAIT Nanasom Nhoma is ultimately about Nyansa (Intelligence) as it relates to Amansesew (Nationbuilding/restoration). Nyansa is comprised of two complementary poles: Revolution and Resolution. As we have stated in the PTAH Sasetem: "...When Earth moves around Sun and returns to its place of origin, It has made a complete revolution. Return to your Ancestral origin is complete revolution. When Earth, through revolution, transmits Its power through the seasons, It has brought about a complete resolution. Transmit power through the cycles of revolution brings about our complete resolution. Revolution and Resolution are two halves of one whole—Intelligence. Revolution-Resolution as a tool of cultural reorientation is defined as the right of return and the right of reconstitution. In practice it is also the rite of return and the rite of reconstitution. The return is to our Ancestral culture, our way of living, our normalcy. It is a return to the pact we made with Nyamewaa-Nyame before we came into the world, and a reconstitution of the cultural values and institutions rooted in those values which make our adhering to that Divine pact possible. We have a right to return to ourselves and to reconstitute ourselves. We must engage in the rites/rituals in order to return to ourselves and to reconstitute ourselves in harmony with Divine Order. We have thus recognized disorder and moved to reject it, thus manifesting intelligence in the true sense…"

This is an nhoma for, by and about Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans~Black People) exclusively. We define various aspects of ritual experience and cultural values as practiced in our varied Ancestral Religious expressions including but not limited to: Akan, Ewe, Yoruba, Igbo, Bakongo, Bambara, Dogon, Minianka, Goromantche, Ovambo, Kenesu-Kamau (Nubian-Egyptian). . . . We also show the origins of the many fictional characters presented to us in the pseudo(false)-religions of the whites and their offspring. These fictional characters, all of which never existed of any race whatsoever include: jesus/yeshua, muhammed, moses, abraham, solomon, sheba, menelik, yahweh, buddha, allah, brahmin, as well as many others.

While our orientation is Akan, our nhoma includes other Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit cultures as well. This information is relevant to all Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Black People) wherever we are found in the world, for we are all connected.

AFURAKA/AFURAITKAIT Nanasom Nhoma is published nine times per year, in accordance with the traditional Akan calendar. An issue is published for each Akwasidae cycle (every 42-days/six weeks).
