Why shouldn’t we call ourselves BLACK?! - Abdullah & Yisrael Bey

Have you ever questioned why certain people are labeled "Black" instead of being recognized by their nationality? In this mind-expanding episode, Abdullah Bay and Yashril join hosts Ron Brown and Mikey Fever to challenge our fundamental understanding of identity through a meticulous examination of etymology, grammar, and historical documentation.The conversation reveals how the word "Black" originated as an adjective—a mere description—rather than a proper noun that could serve as an identity. Through careful analysis of historical texts including the 1599 Geneva Bible, the speakers demonstrate how our true nationality as Moors was systematically buried through linguistic manipulation. What began as "Black Moor" (with "Moor" capitalized as the proper identity) gradually transformed into "Blackamoor" and finally just "Black," effectively erasing our connection to land, sovereignty, and constitutional protection.By examining the preambles of national constitutions from around the world—Germany, China, Argentina, Senegal—the speakers illustrate how proper nationalities connect people to their land and provide international legal standing. These documents consistently refer to "the German people" or "the Chinese people," never "the White people" or "the Black people," revealing the artificial nature of racial classifications.The discussion doesn't shy away from acknowledging obstacles within the Moorish movement itself. Despite being a 112-year-old movement aimed at restoring nationality awareness, internal disunity and insufficient outreach have hampered progress. Yet recent initiatives, including conferences and collaborative platforms, are helping to unite conscious Moors in their educational mission.Whether you're already familiar with these concepts or encountering them for
