NUBIAN KNIGHTS NETWORK: African Animation: The O Twins By Michael Tokunbo Akindele of Fusion Media (Nigeria, Africa)

QUOTATIONS OF "BLACK"

"Whenever I use BLACK it relates to some history of Africans in that particular place. It’s the idea of the color BLACK as a metaphor, or as a representation of African-Americans. It’s the notion of BLACK- BLACKNESS - and all its other meanings in relation to the history of race..."

- Fred Wilson

"Most of my fortitude to continue doing the work comes from the moral outrage I feel about the injustices that Black people endure disproportionately daily."

- N. Abdul-Wakil

"In the end, what matters is not skin shade but pan-African consciousness. Loving your complexion, your nose, lips, hair length and texture, no matter what the politics or trends decide, and simply be. That's the problem with us (African folks). We're still learning how to love ourselves. So used to glorifying others and putting others first..."

African Animation: The O Twins
By Michael Tokunbo Akindele of Fusion Media (Nigeria, Africa)

I have this very intense interest in African animation (Kirikou, Zambezia, Khumba).

I found The O Twins through the pro-Africentric website Shadow & Act which I read religiously just about everyday.

Check out this trailer. this particular production is by Michael Tokunbo Akindele of Fusion Media from Nigeria, Africa.
