So I was having an interesting FB chat with a pal who happens to be not only a survivor, but eloquant in his constant absorbson of how humanity and culture has fused in the last 500 years. He had posted a quote from his friend about one of the most pivotal persons to broker and negotiate the fate of the Northern Hemisphere and future political development in all of history.

February is Black History Month. It tends to be dominated by US black history, even in Canada, so I will try to provide some Canadian black history to even things out a bit.

Starting with the first recorded black man in Canada, Mathieu Da Costa. Born in Africa as Lusofonia, he worked as a translator for the exploration parties of Pierre Dugua, the Sieur de Monts and Samuel de Champlain in the early 16th century. Dutch and French explorers, particularly, were dependent on go-betweens (called un grumete in Portuguese) like Da Costa, who is supposed to have known Dutch, English, French, Portuguese and pidgin Basque, the dialect many Aboriginals used for trading purposes. Once source notes that he spoke Mi'kmaq, which means that he must have been in Canada before Champlain, though there are no actual records of this. Four hundred year old documentation is scarce. Theories that he was able to communicate with aboriginals because of similarities between aboriginal and African languages don't stand up to close scrutiny; most likely was that he was simply an extraordinarily talented linguist. His work was able to reduce cultural tensions between the explorers and the native residents and increase mutual understanding.
That is correct. I responded to my friend and ticked a "LIKE". I felt that since this was being put out there on a social media platform , (especially during a Superbowl game blackout), why not speak up and share more information. I added to the comment box...
There are funds to artist through his namesake. In fact the turn out might have been different historically if he wasnt around to show to newbies to the tribes. It beat getting his ass kicked but didnt really suffice everyone else eventually in the West Indies. I still feel Black History in this era has missed the whole point of reference especially in Canada. From way way after the "Rail road experience" which in some way was like refugeeing to the North to avoid the extremites of what the southern slaves physically and inevidably .(.sorry on a inspired thought bad spelling) fought for. Now since then everyone should at least know that northern Afro survivors aka Afro Nova Scotians had to do some of the same when Canadas world war efforts came about. That definitely had struggles for many because the civil war Black experience didnt happen in Canada. The stories fewer in comparison to our southern kins but just as intense in our mute Afro Canadian history. but yea..Da Costa started da shhhyyyte ! LOL some food for thought. Think this merits a book now...OI !

Good day!
My name is Richard Raybourne, and I am whole heartedly interested in your endeavors
to bring neuro technology, simulation, and augmented reality and health
sciences to the masses finally!
Digital
Roots
I am 44
years old and was born in Montreal, Quebec Canada. I am part of the last
generation xers born pre digital tech and played with "The Six Million
Dollar Man" set, Pong, Electronic Quarterback (1980 coleco)!!, Digital Derby (1977),
original Astro Blaster champion 1979, Pinball of course, The LCD digital watch
(red digits 76') .
Our
generation created and established Hip Hop, Punk, and Rock in alternative forms
to merge, including world beat and electronic. E.g. Afrika Bammbatta, Malcolm
McLaren, Velvet Underground and yes The Stones!
In my late
teens I did some acting absorbed all that industry since 1985. The rage of the
era was electronic phone line mail sent to MS DOS lingo. Also the beginning of
interactive broadcasts via pre digital cable, 1989.
I completed
a degree in Dawson College 1991 in Communication & Creative Arts.
New Age
Gurus
Academies
du Design et Technologies 1997 - Studied the early days of Dreamweaver, Adobe
Premiere, the troll, MSN yuck! Of course the porn, bad dates from POF, Marriage
proposals from chat on Yahoo, yep.That was the 90s. The best thing since sliced
bread was, The Mosaic from Netscape merging with the Electronic mail marrying
and spawning what is now the staple of our social digital communication since
the freaking typewriter and Western Union! Not bad. Also to get honorable
mention, the Motorola cell phone had the option to (LED screens) to merge a
phone number to digital message from your email. The cheaper wiser choice was
simple phone text messages. I wasn’t happy so many tools apart! Cell, pager,
walkman, video cheap mini game, watch .I was ready to hike with my "pouch
bag".remember the "pouch bag"?
Highway we
called it back in da day...
The social
change of the early 21st century was dynamic and fast. I had Clear net for the
option to text and read email and read the world news. Music now incorporated
but hmmm.eventually Napsters. Finally! Eureka! YouTube, Goog, the online gaming
experience, social media is established after the 3rd, nearly world war. It was
expensive if you wanted a faster bandwidth. Fiber optics was integrated in
ground.
It has been
a solid 20 years since that baby birth and now many grandparents roam. I'm in
the middle of something real sweet as history is about to unfold and I wish to
offer my expertise, sense of humor, insight on trends, and of course concepts
to innovating ideas to evolve, help, educate, and soothe the New Age generation
user of this time!
The brain
is fascinating! My recent interests are merging health and the simulation
experience/augmented reality to light, distribution, and of course a player in
the staple of the economy.
Have a
great weekend and I hope to hear from one of your representatives. Best Wishes,
Sincerely
Richard

Indeed it was a brilliant contribution to the
"cause" that hopefully has some positive post "effect" down
the generations. Actually this year I choose to recognise Black history on the
other tip. The great Whites, and people, men and women of all religions and
backgrounds who actually gave a s!!! during those high plights of imposed
destiny to be. Eventually, it was White men who first picked up the arms by
grace of untold spiritual fear or good consciousness to fight for, " dem
N".."Wars ov'a boi! Yur freee..now scat bifo I shoot da coon outa
ya!" Might have been the bond of the day. Yet for the unfortunate scenes
of ignorance to stick its head out legally to fight against the constitution to
include someone that was consider 1 third of a race to vote. Br Brilliant Whites with a heart took a fatal
leap of faith to protest such inhumane co existences. Amen!!
Fact is the "bad
apples" form generations passed still figured out a way to infiltrate that
"dream" and make still constant attempts to break up the people by
war, drugs, poverty and also make it look like EVERYbody is in on it for
example gangs.
