David Hundeyin: Africans Don't Recognise Neo-C*lonialism When It Appears In Blackface In a recent conversation with former Black Panther Party New York chapter leader Dhoruba bin Wahad and @blackpowermedi co-founder Kalonji Changa, The Spearhead founder @DavidHundeyin revealed that he made it his mission in 2023 to show Africans that their current leaders are merely pin-ups who do not actually control the continent. Hundeyin's previous news outlet, West Africa Weekly, regularly reported on how the US state and US corporations wield vast amounts of power across Africa without needing to physically set foot on the continent (with the notable exception of the US Africa Command [AFRICOM]). We’ve continued that insurgent tradition at The Spearhead since 2025. What will it take for Africans to take back power? Drop us a comment.

Remove Mandela and Qaddafi - Mandela is a race traitor. -Qaddafi is an Arab. He’s NOT an Afrikan. Hence, he cannot be an Ancestor We have to have clear lines. Qaddafi was a great Arab leader in Afrika. But he wasn’t an Afrikan.
May the spirit of our ancestors and friends as heroes be with Ibrahim Traore.

This is the atrocities the United States and Israel voted against in the United Nation while most European countries abstained from voting the transatlantic slave trade as "the gravest crime against humanity". Every descendant of enslaved Africans in the diaspora deserves reparations.

One of the biggest aspirations and goals of imperialism is to make Africans and Africa looks small, and convince the African man of their inadequacy. For them to succeed they need to teach ordinary African to believe they are nothing without imperialism, and that imperialism is what gave them some degree of humanity and relevance. This fits into their deluded narrative that Africans do not have a history, that we lived in huts before they stepped their dirty feet on our shores, that they are actually helping us by stealing our resources and confining our people to a life of perpetual poverty and hardship.

It is rare to see Black female PhDs in Applied Data Science, making this achievement even more remarkable. Meet Dr Khensani Xivuri, the first and only Black female to receive a PhD in Applied Data Science from the University of Johannesburg, South Africa 🇿🇦.

“Turning my back on Malcolm was one of the mistakes that I regret most in my life. I wish I’d been able to tell Malcolm I was sorry, that he was right about so many things. But he was killed before I got the chance. He was a visionary ahead of us all. Malcolm was the first to discover the truth, that color doesn’t make you a devil. It is the heart, soul, and mind that define a person. Malcolm was a great thinker and an even greater friend. I might never have become a Muslim if it hadn’t been for Malcolm. If I could go back and do it over again, I would never have turned my back on him.” —Muhammad Ali

The first Africans to compete in the Olympic Games were two South Africans, Jan Mashiane and Len Taunyane, who competed in the Marathon at the 1904 St. Louis Olympics. Their participation in the infamous 1904 St. Louis Olympic Marathon is one of the most fascinating and bizarre chapters in sports history. Neither man traveled to the United States as an official Olympic athlete. They were in Missouri as part of the Boer War Spectacle at the World's Fair, which ran concurrently with the Games. They had previously served as dispatch runners during the Anglo-Boer War. They decided to enter the marathon on a whim just before the race began. Because officials struggled with their surnames, they were listed on the program as "LenTau" and "Yamasani". Taunyane was actually on pace for a much higher finish but was chased nearly a mile off-course by a pack of aggressive, wild dogs. Despite the canine detour and brutal conditions that caused 18 out of 32 runners to drop out, both South Africans finished the race. Taunyane finished 9th and Mashiane finished 12th.

DON'T FORGET SLAVERY IN CONGO. This is what slavery looks like in the mines in Eastern Congo… They get $2 a day to line the pockets of capitalist multinationals. In these mines, there are at least 40,000 enslaved children who chip away at rocks so Apple can release 4 iPhone models every year.
