Lectures by Dr. Rashidi
\n
The goa l of the tour is to see all twenty of the Olmec heads on one visit. To my knowledge this has never been done before. Few people have actually seen a ll twenty heads. Runoko Rashidi is one of those few.
\n
The Olmec civ ilization of Mexico is one of the world’s great civilizations and the pare nt civilization of the Americas. It is the American equivalent to the Nile Valley civilization of Africa and began four-thousand years ago. At the h eart of the Olmec civilization are twenty gigantic stone heads–all of them with African features. On this tour\, for the first time in history\, we intend to visit all twenty of the heads in the course of one tour. This ma kes the tour historic. In addition to the heads themselves\, all of the ma jor Olmec artifacts in Mexico will be viewed. You will visit the site of t he first city in the Americas\, the first pyramid in the Americas and the largest pyramid in the Americas. And all of this with the noted historian Runoko Rashidi. This is a tour that you don’t want to miss. I invite you t o be a part of history and join a tour that has been years in the making a nd planning. Mexico is a safe and friendly place and we are going to give you an experience like never before. And\, of course\, there will be time for shopping and time on your own for you to spend as you like! It is a tr ip of a lifetime! So come to Mexico with me!

\n
Then\, visit Raqchi ruins. These ar e the best and – to this extent – only surviving ruins that have adobe wal ls still sitting on a base of Inca rock walls.

STARTING NOVEMBER 4 AT 9:00 PM US EST!
\n
On No vember 4\, 2016 Runoko Rashidi begins his new Friday evening classes. The theme is Museum Artifacts and African Communities. You could also call it Friday evenings with Runoko Rashidi. Because that is what it amounts to–Fr iday evening cyber journey tours to the African collections in the major m useums followed by visits to African communities in all of the major regio ns of the Motherland with none other than Runoko Rashidi himself–historian \, writer\, anthropologist and tour leader. And all of the funds collected from the class are directed towards more travel\, more research and the p resentation of the finding to the African world.
\n
There will be a m inimum of twelve individual sessions\, each lasting about two to 2.5. hour s. The classes are spread out over a period of months. The live sessions b egin on Friday evenings at 9:00 PM United States Eastern Standard times. I f you cannot participate live you are free to review the course instructio n\, the questions and answers and Runoko’s best\, original photographs.
\n
During the intervals between the actual classes supplemental informa tion is posted to the page. It is a not to be missed opportunity to have a direct one on one interaction with Runoko and also to help facilitate the ongoing research that he is doing. It is a unique opportunity both to lea rn and to say thank you\; to absorb the richness of African history and cu lture while at the same time giving back. You need no special equipment. Y ou simply need log onto the special Facebook page and follow along. And th e course tuition is only $50.00 per household for the entire course. Just pay through Paypal to Runoko@hotmail.com. Acknowledgemen t of payment will be made immediately.
\n
The class assignment is to compile a book for children on The History of Africa: People and Civilizat ions. What could be better? What could be more worthy?
\n

\n
