Peace and Blessings to Mwalimu Mkuu Ivan Van Sertima.I never met him, but like many others I have learned to tune in to their spirit and am starting to have a better understanding of who these great men are.When he passed I was still working on a documentary that I wanted to dedicate to him!I know many are spritually bleeding and a sign of his passing is that this hurricane season is gonna be no joke!!!
