What is the name of our color? It is eumelanin, which means "true melanin." Our color is neither black nor brown; it is eumelanin. I call our true name "Eumelanians."
We are not blacks. We are not dark. We are Eumelanians, which means we are people of true melanin – people of true pigment. Melanin is the skin pigment that gives skin its original color, lying under the skin inside the melanin cells (melanocytes).
Africans, for a long time, have received a pseudonym. We’ve been given a false identity and recognition. But now, we have discovered the truth. We know we are not defined by the name given to us, because anything that goes wrong with that name goes wrong with the person who carries that name.
Strangers launched their propaganda and twisted history in their favor. They claimed they discovered Africa and so gave it a name, but we know Africa was not discovered and that name is not the true name of our continent.

Africa was originally called Alkebulan – a name given by our forefathers who lived several years ago.
The name Alkebulan means:
The garden of Eden
The mother of mankind
The land of the original people
Looking at these meanings, the word Africa is a misnomer. However, because of the widespread usage, that will take time to change. Notwithstanding, we know our true name. We know our true identity. We know our continent doesn’t mean the land of monkeys and wild animals. It is the cradle of humanity. It is the mother of mankind – a land flowing with milk and honey.
Africa is the garden of Eden. It is the garden of treasures. And we can see this even today. Africa is a land where all major resources in the world are found. Nothing tangible can be done in the world without Africa.
Indeed, Africa is a blessed and generous land, a land full of great and happy people. God bless Africa. God bless us. Cheers!
