For my genealogists

(This is only for finding specific origins of Saltwater Africans you may have in your family tree) To find specific origins and ethnicity such as a kingdom, chiefdom or federation I would suggest researching on Slavevoyages.org from 3-12 years after the birth of the ancestor, you should also look into Akan day names as those were also sometimes translated directly into English, which is then where you would get enslaved Africans with names like Friday. Doing this method I've been able to trace my ancestry back to the Mende Barri/Panga-Kabonde River Chiefdoms of Sierra Leone, and the Arochukwu/Ohatia/Bende which is also known as Igboland and the Kingdom of Kongo.

Soulaan Creole English, AACE, and Soulaan English

Mods, this'll be the last time I make a post about this language. But the language I've been promoting can also be called Soulaan Creole English (It can be called Soulaan English, Ebonics, Soulaani Patwah) Yes, I understand Patwah is mainly used to denote Yardie Patwah, but since the goal of me creating this language is the decolonization of African Americans, Black Americans, Soulaani, Freedmen, etc. And "Patwah" is a form of linguistic decolonialism, as so is the same as the word Soulaani as it rejects Linguistic Colonialism (Black, Negro, Colored, Patois, Slave) and reclaims the right to self-name. Hence why Soulaani Patwah works because it rejects words like "Creole" which is almost disproportionately applied to Afro-Diasporic Languages. So yes while I came up with these other names, they're mostly in case if someone chooses not to accept Soulaani Patwah.

Vocabulary for AACE

Hey yall...for AACE, would you guys consider Pan Africanist Elements that came out of the 60s in our communities (Kinaras, Mkekas, Nguzo Saba, Mishumaa Saba, dashikis) as apart of our culture uniquely enough to be added to AACE. Let me know y'all thoughts.

Language Creation

Hasheyak Fufemum I'm making a Pan-Black American language that takes the Plantation Creole theory of Ebonics and blows it OUT OF HERE! It's called African American Creole English, and is essentially what Ebonics would've been if it held its status as a Creole language.
