The Origins of California's name from Queen Califia
Просмотров 35410 месяцев назад
To this day, I meet People who didn't know California got its name from a Black Queen named Califia who ruled over this land.. Her story was a mythical character in the famed Novella of the 1500's called Adventures of Esplandian. To others like Ferdinand Columbus, Afro Spanish Explorer Pedro Alonso Nino, Hernan Cortes, Magellan, Diaz and many Conquistadors, the land that showered her treasures ...
She Surf for the Ancestors, She surf for Freedom

Surf Hair don't care takes on a whole different meaning when I think about my Ancestors who had to fear being near the water, didn't have access to the pool or beaches to learn how to swim and had to stay away from it for physical well-being as well as to keep their hair maintained for job opportunities. This is a brief history of a Black Woman's journey of hair through surfing. Hope you enjoy....

    I really like the amount of effort you put into your graphics and your presentation. You would be the perfect person to do a video about Cicero the young Negro slave. Let me know if you'd like to learn more about him. His books were number 1 theater plays and best sellers in Europe during his era but Amerika scrubbed him from history. That's because White Amerikans were homeless while he was a well paid Löhnsklaven "Wage worker" just as all Negro Sklaven "Workers". Let me know and I'll make you a RUclips sensation with true Black history rather than a fiction novel written for women. Warm regards

  • @lordvonmanor6915
    @lordvonmanor6915 10 месяцев назад

    There is no documented history of a Queen Califia outside of the United States therefore this story is false. Califia literally means Pole and was the original name of Poland Germany and yes they were Black at that timeline. When Europe settled Amerika they placed names like New Amsterdam, New England, New Spain and there was Califia in English is California "Poland Germany".🧐 If you knew about Califia Germany you'd know to stay far away from California especially if you are Black "Mestiz".👍

    • @thatsurfchic_mimi
      @thatsurfchic_mimi 10 месяцев назад

      Well should have did much more research then I did because her history started in Spain and moved up to Europe.. Also there are many accounts that Captain and Sea Crews documented later published as Books that talked about it... These books are saved in the Catholic Libraries and other places you can check out on my Blog at Creatively Cultured 🤙🏽...

      @@thatsurfchic_mimi Sorry babe but I'm a student of the Royal Library of Holländisch-Deutsch and the story of Köningin Calafia was written by a Spanish guy named Vincent Ibáñez Blasco. It's totally fictional story for women readers. The State of California was named long before this guy was a seed in his Daddy's nut sacks. He wrote this story in the mid 1800s. Yet seeing that you are a Black person I can tell you a State being named California is not where you want to be. Califia or Calafia or California literally means Pole and is a reference to Poland Germany. Poland Germany was a place used for mixing races in a poor attempt to create the perfect Negro. Each time they were unsatisfied with the results and would kill all the people of Poland and start all over again. Eventually they settled the elites in California areas like Norwalk, Long Beach, San Pedro, Lynwood, and surrounding Compton areas.👍 But as far as Queen Califia "Queen Poland of Hebrew Spain" no she did not exist.🧐

      @@thatsurfchic_mimi You can only read about Califia Germania "California Germany" in the Royal Library. At the time the smartest Negroes in the world were the Saxons hence the reason these Freimaureri were called the Illuminati. They would use Califia as a place to mix the smartest Negroes with what they considered the dumbest Negroes "Crimeans". The people in charge of mixing them were Blacks called Kolorieten who specialized in painting portraits which involved mixing colors. Their king would have them mix people to get the colour skin he liked. But they also had to be strong and intelligent 🤓. Although many were strong they simply could not pass the intelligent test.
