Moorish Britain issue # 3 Marie Charles

The cover pages of our third issue illustrate a cultural continuity which is sadly not being taught in the schools and universities of our education system. The Melanated face and hairstyle of King Offa show his indigenous status through a lineage that can be traced back to the Mother land through cultural continuity and a relationship to kin and practices of First Nation People. This Moorish Empire was spread throughout Europe, particularly during Offa's reign and the reader should not disconnect or separate this landmass in reading 'ourstory' as opposed to 'his-story'.
