Dear Friend,
Let’s be real for a second.
If you grew up in America and went through the same school system I did,
you were not taught the full story of African people —or Black people— in American history.
Not even close.
They gave you the “safe” version.
The watered-down, whitewashed, textbook version—
twisted into something unrecognizable.
The one that starts with slavery and ends with a
few paragraphs about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
The version that makes people comfortable.
(That’s if you got anything at all.)
But they left out the parts that make you think.
The parts before you were kidnapped.
The parts that make you question.
The parts that make you proud.
And if you’ve ever had that nagging feeling—
that there’s more to the story.
You’re right.
Because there is.

For nearly 30 years, I’ve been teaching African and African American Studies at the college level.
Students walk into my classes with fragments of history jumbled in their heads
—often unsure what to trust, what connects, and what’s real.
They walk out with:
Clarity that organizes what they know
Evidence to support it
And the confidence to speak without guessing—or apologizing
They tell me things like:
“Why didn’t anyone ever teach us this before?”
“This changes how I see everything.”
“Now I finally understand where we came from — and where we should be going.”
And that’s when it became clear to me.
So I decided to take the same mind-altering lessons. normally reserved for college classrooms…
and make them available to everyone.
Because too often, we’ve had to piece together our own history from fragments,
whispers, and side conversations—
When it should have been taught clearly and fully from the start.
Introducing the New Online
African American Studies Course
They Never Wanted You To See.
Most people sense something is missing from the story—they just can’t quite name it.
This isn’t the kind of course you forget five minutes after it ends.
It confirms what you’ve always suspected: much of our history was never fully told.
Inside this course, you’ll see how the pieces fit together—
and why so much of what we’ve been taught was deliberately incomplete.
It will also:
Validate your doubts.
Reveal the pieces they left out
Let you speak with confidence
You’ll discover the parts of our past that were hidden, erased, or ignored—and finally see yourself, your history, and the world clearly.
In just a few lessons, you’ll understand how powerful we’ve always been—and why that power has been feared and suppressed.
You’ll trace how our culture, resistance, and influence has shaped every era, from ancient African civilizations to modern America.
By the time you finish these lessons, you’ll never look at history—or yourself—the same way again.
How the concept of race was invented to justify our exploitation—and what it really means today.
The African empires, innovators, and visionaries whose achievements rivaled—and often surpassed—Europe.
Hidden leaders, women, artists, and scientists who were erased from textbooks and history books.
How Black resistance, culture, and spirituality have driven our survival, progress, and excellence for centuries.
Why learning this history will change how you see yourself, your community, and your future.
What Former Students Say...

Rebecca Jabobs
“Your class was the most important one I’ve ever taken. Nothing else hit me that hard.”

Angela Henry
“I didn’t expect it, but we walked away with real, detailed tactics for dealing with this crazy world. That meant a lot.”
This Course is for you if...
You’re curious, open-minded, and ready to finally see
the full story—no history background required.
Felt something was missing from the history you were taught
Questioned yourself, not realizing the story was never meant to show your power
Wanted answers, not slogans or surface-level explanations
Wanted to understand the strength we’ve always held—and how it was hidden in plain sight
Wanted clarity, confidence, and language for what you already sensed was true
In short: you’re ready to stop guessing—and start knowing.
This isn’t me lecturing from a textbook.
And it’s not another collection of disconnected facts.
This course offers a clear, structured way to understand African American History—
how it fits together, why parts were left out, and why it still matters.
It’s the only systematic approach to African American Studies available
outside of a college classroom.
And here’s what that looks like in practice:
Engaging video lessons that bring the whole thing to life.
Guided discussions that challenge what you think you know.
Downloadable resources to deepen your understanding.
Community access to others on the same journey.
Why This Matters
Every lesson connects directly to the world we’re living in now.
Because our history doesn’t matter unless it helps us make sense of today—and
unless we can use it to build clarity, unity for liberation moving forward.
Here’s what happens when people go through this.

“I love that this course was all about my people and our story, our contributions and accomplishments; Not our story as an afterthought or as a side dish... I love that it was all about us all the time. I finally understood what I couldn't explain before .”
Brittney Genelien
Former Student

“Professor Kenyatta, I am very thankful for being in your course…You have enlightened me, and I am a stronger person because of you. Please know that if you are teaching an advanced course any where I will do my best to be your student again. Thank you for opening my eyes.”
Roderick McDuffie
Former Student

"What impacted my knowledge the most from the course was the fact that the lessons were not sugar-coated or watered down. I would take it ten times again if I had the chance because it gave me the language for what I always felt."
Shayna Dover
Former Student
Before I tell you how to join this course, there’s something you should know.
Once you see this history clearly, you can’t unsee it.
You’ll start to notice how systems were built.
You’ll recognize patterns others overlook.
And you’ll see the present—and the future—with sharper clarity.
You’ll understand what’s been done, why it worked,
and how this knowledge determines whether we remain divided—or finally unites us.
That’s the point.
Every semester, colleges charge $1,500–$2,500 for students to take my
African American Studies course for just 16 weeks.
That’s nearly $900 a month or $156 every single week.
And when the semester ends?
So does their access.
Want more?
That's another $1,500-$2,500.
And even then, students often get the version of our
history that is "filtered" through the academy—limited
by what institutions are comfortable teaching.
But here?
You get the depth, the insight, and the cultural truth —
without the gatekeeping, without the tuition bills, and without the 16-week countdown.
This isn’t a stripped-down version of a college course.
In many ways, it goes further.
You'll receive:
Lifetime access to every lesson, module, and update, not for 16 weeks, but forever.
My lectures, filmed and taught directly by me—content that goes beyond what my college students receive.
Documentaries, films, and curated cultural analyses most institutions won’t teach—or allow.
Guided readings, quizzes, and recommended book lists to deepen your understanding.
A community rooted in empowerment, conversation, and shared understanding to start creating unity.
Direct access opportunities through Monthly Q&A and AMA sessions (available in higher tiers).
Certificate of Completion when you finish the course.
And all of this costs less than what my college students pay for one week of class.
Let that sink in:
Colleges charge students thousands for a version of this course.
You’re getting:
More content
More access
More support
More community
Lifetime availability
What institutions charge thousands for…
What students struggle to afford for a single semester…
You get permanently for less than $100.
This isn’t a discount.
It’s not even a bargain.
This is reclaiming access to our story, on our terms, forever.

The experiences of your courses changed my perspective and awakened me in a way that changed my life. Thank you.

“You were such an inspiration to all of us. Your class didn’t just teach me history—it hit my heart.”
Former Student

Jelishkalee Santiago
“Before this course, my understanding of Black history and culture was limited to what I learned in basic history classes, which often focused on slavery and civil rights without going much deeper. This class challenged that narrow view and helped me understand that the Black experience is complex, resilient, creative, and deeply rooted in African history.”
Former Student

Jessica Fair
"When I signed up for the class, I thought I was just going to be learning more about Martin Luther King, the Underground Railroad, why Rosa Parks wouldn’t move from her seat on the bus... None of what I expected was what I got. Instead, this class has opened my eyes and mind to things much wider… Every lesson was raw and uncut, and I think that's exactly what people need to understand what's real.”
Former Student
Stefan Douglas
"We act like we know what we are talking about, and some
of us may, but most of us don't, as we were never taught black history in High School. This course doesn’t just give you information; it really makes you sit back and think about things you probably never questioned before. It challenges the way you see history, culture, and even yourself at times”.
Former Student

“What I learned from Professor Kenyatta disproves the little I knew about Africa. This class was an eye-opener for me.”
Aaron Timbe
Former Student

"It inspired me to be the best that I can be. Professor Kenyatta is what makes learning interesting and fun because he cares about what he teaches.”

“When I registered for this course, I thought it would not affect my perspective on life. But not only did it change my perspective, I felt like it intervened in my soul.”
