Guys do you realize that this is the true education needed by us African children, not this colonised schooling system. I feel so blessed Thokozani.
Her ancestors are wise, not her.... she is a vessel. I know things I don't even know how I know. Be open to ancestral knowledge maAfrika. Our history, culture, books and spirituality were destroyed. Precolonial ancestors as far back as 100 000 years ago want history re-written, they are back, exposing and throwing the yoke of deceit away. But they are spirit, requiring live bodies and minds to use. I just agreed after running away for a long time
Mama ndiyabulela ngemfundisi ngaske ungayeki ukuthetha. Camagu mntanethongo!
@@DrKhanyiLitchfieldTshabalala I’m all for discovery all this knowledge. Please share reading material on a possible 🕯🤗
And for me the sad part is that the ruling party is black but history wise this is not taught..trust assured my little one will be taught this
Jonga Yhoo. The Embo(Place in Kenya that has nguni type totems and cultures and tradional practices.. Trippy story I live in eastern cape east London in mdantsane. And when I was younger my neighbor whom basically raised me at the time but she now has moved.. But everytime there was a thunderstorm a scary one at that she would beat Zinc with a wooden stick and scream "EMBOOO, buyela embooo!!!!"
Yho camagu!!!! Makes sense now I will live it at that yho
The Dr needs her own podcast 🙏🏿🙏🏿 just to have more time to absorb the lessons.
There are many! She is a walking encyclopaedia!
@@unpopularopinion_za Enkosi Nsiki for mama once again. please ensure sh comes back👏🏾👏🏾
Couldn't agree more
Absolutely
She really needs her own podcast.... cause wowww ... I feel she needs to come back again for 3rd and 4th time
I was forced to go back to my roots when my son got cancer last year, we used herbs, it worked even though he also did chemo, he passed on but i was happy that he died cancer free, the problem was the tumors were holding on to his organs and after it fell off, there was a serious damage that internally from where the tumor was, i am provoked by the question why dont we have sangomas in hospital because believe i had t hide that i am giving him herbs but they could see that something isnt adding up, according to them he was gonna live for less than three months but he lied for 10months, chemo wasn't killing his cells like they expected and he wasn't having any side effects after chemo, i am so proud of our indigenous medication
Thank you for sharing this information.
I'm sure your son is resting peacefully.
Would you remember the herbs that u gave him?
@@Tee-Star it was from Lesotho, my aunt brought it, she cured many people especially cervical, prostate and breast cancer
@@alettaphalatsi477 Thank you.
This has been sooo insightful, finally we have an African woman who teaches us about identity that's free from western agenda's. The most mind blowing part is that with African spirituality it all begins with us. we are our own alchemists "our alters are in our homes".
I am so grateful for this podcast , I am learning more about African spirituality and my roots than I have ever learned in my entire life. I love you all and thank you , love from Trinidad
May I humbly ask everyone who ends up here. Can you share this podcast with atleast 3 or 4 people who may find this informative and life changing
Will
MaAfrika I am a conference in Lusaka. I missed the live release. I will watch tonight. Sithokoze emaDlozini akubo Ma, o-Nkosi-Dlamini (izi-Dlukula Dledle zakwa-Lobamba. Ama-Langeni langayidli imvu lemnyama esaba emafinyila). Nawakubo-Baba, o-Litchfield. I subscribe only to the pre-colonial and pre-European Litchfileds, those who were not in organised religion, but spirituality. Some of them died fighting forced conversion to Christinaity. And I am also acknowledging those with whom I am not related to by blood.
We appreciate your willingness to share your knowledge Mme Khanyisile. I have learned a lot in your 2 interviews with Ntsiki. The period of awakening has arrived for some of us. I cannot wait to get hold of your writings. ❤
Mama siyabonga ngeemfundiso zakho. Sicela ningadinwa kukusifunza ngolwazi
You are loved
Siyabonga mama ukusibusisa ngolwazi olungaka
I wonder how can one get hold of you mama. There is so much more I want to learn from you.
Thank you to our ancestors for making this platform for us......
Thank you Sisi for bringing such a gem for us, we appreciate You & Her...camagu
Ntsiki I love you ❤
Sisi Ntsiki you are important for the revolution of African consciousness.
I wanted to say you are important for the revolution of the black mind, but now I know that colorism was never an African construct. It was either one was African or non-African. Thank you. Khuphuka njalo👏🏿
Thanking your ancestors on a white mans platform 🤣🤣🤣, you're intelligent shem
@@JayJay-mx7oc What's wrong with that?
I used to call my ancestors only from my great grandfather but now i have learned to call all of them 🙏
How did you call them, if I may ask?
I don't think we can ever get enough of listening to Mama, she must come back again...
This is one of the most powerful interviews I've ever seen. And I'm born and bred Christian. Please list the names of her books and/or website. Thank you so much for posting this!
Our Ancestors are so proud that such a channel exists so we can learn such wisdom and continue the work for sovereignty and liberation!! Thank you very much! We are in the era of Reclamation!
I met Dr Khanyisile a few years ago and what I learned from her left me in awe! So happy she is sharing her knowledge❤ Makwande
This is truly the school of life, I want to follow Dr Khanyisile everywhere she goes!
Listening to this savant, this great Afrikan Spirit gives me goosebumps.
Praise be to our Afrikan Gods for raising amongst us, this Great Light so as to reawaken us from this Deep Sleep/Death we find ourselves in as a Black Race.
Ume njalo nkosazana kaGogo!!! Bayede!!!!!!
Ausi Ntsiki, you need to interview Malaika Mahlatsi . You should also look in to giving space for other people from other backgrounds like Tsonga, Pedi , Tswana. I feel like we only get perspective on African History from Zulus and Xhosas . I don’t know if I am wrong !
In Kenya, people these conversations haven't reached this level of bold. Very few intellectuals will give you this kind of information.
It will come. There is wave sweeping across the continent.
We will go back to North Africa has Africans because that’s where black life started in Africa
Ngugi wa thiongo
I love this woman…tried searching for her page on YT after the first video you had with her, but couldn’t find her😢 she ignites me spiritually and makes me want to know more.
I have been bugging Ntsiki to establish the platform - the logistics - mina I am just a mouth piece.
Indeed we need more conversations like these to revive Afrocentricism
I met a man in India in a jewelry story in Rishikesh, North India. I sat down and just started reading me. I didn't't go for a reading. I asked him if he charged, he said no, because he didn't't want to be influenced by money. He owned a jewelry store. In India, the male deities have a female consorts. India and Africa are similar in their orientation towards the divine. I completed an Ayurveda course in Kerela, South India. The teacher explained that South Indian culture was matriarchal with things passed down on the mother line, but the British changed the practice/laws and changed the entire makeup of the society as well as the status of women. It's important to note, that some south Indians are darker than people on the continent of Africa.😊
I think every other race and culture the woman was the head or held in high regards from the native and Aztecs it was only the Europeans had that patriarchal culture
The good doctor must definitely come back for a few more episodes her wisdom is on another level. Thank you unpopular opinion for exposing us to the good doctor

@@DrKhanyiLitchfieldTshabalala 👏👏👏 sithokoze emakhosini amakhulu you have really sparked a huge interest in african spirituality in most of us
Absolutely 👍🏾👍🏾
She must come back
@@DrKhanyiLitchfieldTshabalala People look at me as abnormal when I talk about "Mvelinqangi." I am a joke to them. They pray to Jesus for me and invite me to church. I need to grow in my African spirituality by meeting people who're free or willing to free themselves from this slavery mentality. Kindly send me your official contacts. Thanks in advance.
Unlimited gratitude, love and light! This the big Momma energy we needed for restoration! ❤🧡💛💚🤍💙💜
I loved the part about Sangomas asking for payment for work because as an NLP Practitioner and Life Coach for some reason I just stopped asking for payment and just allowing spirit to lead the manner in which those I help choose to show their gratitude towards me.
And yes, you do not need anyone to tell you about you. Get to know yourself. To believe in god is not to know god.
This is exactly what I wanted to caution as well because these days we find very dodgy characters wanting to train others into becoming healers even though the said prospect students do not necessarily possess the gift of healing. So, I am glad that you've chose to operate differently. It is refreshing to hear such.
And do you realise that you don't go hungry? Or scamper for clients?
@@DrKhanyiLitchfieldTshabalala the clients bring themselves and helping them is not even a great effort, everything just flows. Abundance for both of us.
As a Sangoma I have people who didn’t even pay cos I just do what I’m called to do
@@mninawamavuso3816 Donga lukaMavuso. Yibambe kanjalo.... you will never hunger. Your offspring shall remain forever blessed. I bow before you. Sdwaba siluthuli.
The level of depth. Yinjula b'chopho. Thokozani 👏🏿👏🏿.
Thank you for bringing on this Queen Mother. She is beyond amazing we need to hear more 🙏🏿
I want to study what she is studying! ♥️♥️♥️
I've wanted to write fiction african stories that are historical but struggle with inspiration and perspective
The information my grandmother has but refuses to talk about it thank you Christianity...
Duuuuude
@@NtsikiMazwai thank you dear for this podcast... We learning so much!
I wanna make films about african history
I am SHOOK. I can't even...Dr Khanyisile Litchfield- Tshabalala? Just wow! What a light!
Here's to amamDlozi ami nawe-Afrika!
She is solidifying what we already know, and laying foundations for so much more. A’ Bantu bayabulela.

You have nourished the turmoil and filled the void in my soul Mama. I am greatly impressed by your passion. Your wisdom is out of this world. My sincere gratitude to the host too.
Our gratitude to you for listening, to Unpopular Opinion for the platform, and to our ancestors for the knowledge
💛💛💛
I yearn to hear the wisdom of the elders... And our languages are simply music and callings to my deepest being.
You can tell that Ntsiki is fully absorbed by this conversation. I can't blame her...the good Dr is brilliant 😅
We don’t blame her either!
@@unpopularopinion_za AmaDlozi, the ancestors are doing their thing. I am just a willing vessel. People are hooked, not because of me, but because you are being spoken to by voices from thousands of years ago. We surely come from great ancestry maAfrika.
Thina singoMiya we proud of mntase Ntsiki, @Dr Khanyisile how I wish one day we can have African University with African studies yet again.
Eyi
Camagu
Wow it’s so amazing to hear her put it in various African contexts. I’m Rozvi (Shona, Zimbabwe) and she’s speaking my truth wow 🙌🏾
Sounds like me
@@BernardBushe kwa Zuvai 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Camagwini…Enkosi kakhulu for bracing us with your presence again elder, deep diving to liberate the mind(s) of the AFRIKAN child…AFRIKAN Sacred Science at its best….the seed is now germinating….and the tree of liberty is shooting forth…Enkosi Ndlovukazi….Love Light and eternal life to you…O’Gogo na bo Mkhulu bak’vikele in this your journey. Camagu
The truth has a fleeing if you are an African I am from West Africa others called us non-believers but as for me I do not care I am a true African Lorma boy
Part 3 please. Great teaching!
Seconded. uMama is so informative. Also, when she launches her book, I feel like the podcast should be given the opportunity to unpack that book.
@@ontiretsephetlhu8784 Most definitely. Mainstream media hides such people. Its a privilege.
It is now your responsibility & it is your duty to invite this woman back to inform & educate us on a regular basis. Please. Her work is not done…Keep doing great things Sister❤ 🙏🏾
Thank you sis Ntsiki for bringing o mama Tshabalala again...
Everything she said is from a holistic point of view not only earthly bound & she goes straight to the core.
Camagu🤲🏼
Thokoza 🙇
We love, Honour & Respect you Bo Mme ba Africa 🕯️
This mama is doing better work than all politicians in Africa
Dr khanyile is the reason why I subscribed to this Chanel. That first interview with her had me hooked ❤️😘
Sibonga amaThonga.... Thokoza!
💛💛
Same here👌🙌
I'm glad that I have watched episode 1&2 and I wish all black South Africans watch them because they are both the fountain of true knowledge, we are so obsessed with Christianity, Jesus, Mary, God, Allah, etc. We and all our leaders we are deeply lost!!!
Difference is, some mega big leaders get paid for this dis and mis information for Afrika never to rise. Thina ke? We are in someone's agenda, mahala!
My goodness such a fountain of wisdom 💕
Camagu! Mawathokoze!
She has the point hands down.
With African Spirituality she has a point about it but uBaba UZwi Lezwe has key to it.
taakusimuka manje ( we are rising now) this is the way to go. I wish every school, varsity has this as a mandatory subject
Say on daughters of the soil 💚 it’s about time we held our own ☀️💚🌼
Indeed
Many many many thanks to the ancestors for sending Mama Khanyisile for bringing light to my soul ! And gratitude and blessings to Unpopular Opinion !❤️🖤💚
Amazing. Empowering. Liberating. Gives new meaning to “the doors of learning and culture shall be open to all.”
Ndiyamthanda loMama... She reminds of me when I am her age... I am not her age but in my teenage years I spoke like her hence I say she reminds me of when I am her age... It was revealed to me in my teenage years!... Time is an illusion...
At least once a month please. Or 2 hours every 2 months. It's her simple language, her ability to listen, her spirit. I adore her
Sibonga amaThonga. I love you back
Gogo Ntsiki thank you for bringing Dr Khanyisile Litchfield-Tshabalala back. Please bring her back with Rutendo Matinyarare
Ntsiki, please call mama again. I believe that the episode about African Matriarchal systems could be linked with homosexuality in African Context. Please invite her again for that topic or really anyone to touch on that collosal topic.
You guys are so deep yazi.... I love you
Thank You for letting uMama grace us with her knowledge and wisdom again.🙌🏾
Thank you for watching!
I love this woman with all my heart. Her wisdom is a blessing to us son's and daughters of Alkebulan
Ngiyabonga Mduduzi. I love you back. Mayibuye, i-Afrika! Mawabongwe.... amaThonga! Mawathokoze!
I'm christian , I watched this with an open mind, and I will still choose Christianity over and over again. It liberates me and that's where I find peace. I've tried African spirituality before by the way.
Addicts usually succumb to their weaknesses and in your case its the white race's indoctrination!
I’m so glad people like her are still around to teach us! We just need to listen attentively
Greetings Royalties ,her wisdom is on another level, absolutely 👑👑🥰🥰❤❤
Only 10 mins in & AMAZING ✨
Damn it .... this is the power of a black woman.
The power of an Afrikan woman submitting to Afrikan ancestors. I do nothing, I just agree to be a vessel. There's nothing special about me.
Thank you Good Doctor....Your Lectures on Indeginous African knowledge opens up the mind...This is the education that should be compulsory in African schools.Not what we have been conditioned to recognise as important by the colonialists.We hope and pray our God and Ancestors continue to enlighten us,give us power to bring back THE AFRICA!
Mayibuye iAfrika! Mawavuke amaThonga!
Y'all still call it "Africa" named by our colonizers so they say , so which Africa is coming back, y'all acting like you know, but truth is y'all still looking for answers, I really wanna know who we are as people, but black people always have ways to sabotage and fail themselves, for example how do you trust the only people who it is said they still practice our culture if they just want money, we can shout but the problem is within us as black people, for example if you and your siblings are tight no outsider can make you guys turn against each other , mxm in simple organizations and work places , black people still sell each other out , we shout spirituality this spirituality that, we don't even get along in our clans , you know the amount of witchcraft in our clans , people run away from their families coz of such , I really how everyone is questioning this stuff but keh lets not act as if we now understand
Siyabonga Mama for sharing your wisdom with us. It is much appreciated. May you continue to grow in wisdom and sharing it with the world.
Ntsiki, ndiyakuthanda sisi.🤍
Camagu. 🙏🏽
Thank you Kumkanikazi...nesivakashi sakho with so much wisdom
Such greatness, strength, and elegance All wrapped up in the honorable gift of traditional women give thanks 🙏🏾
Sicela incwadi! Please invite uMama again when she has released her book

I'm sharing this with my family so much answer to our questions I'm so shocked 🙆♂️🕯
Camagu! mawaongwe amaThonga e-Afrika! Who said there are no miracles in Afrikan Spirituality?
This interview has raised even more questions from my end. Ntsiki kindly explore opening up for people to come to the podcast where there can be some type of Q and A, i believe this will sell. Thank you for listening to us and bringing her back.
Hi Wandile! Every Sunday we have a Q and A session on Twitter Spaces with that week’s guest. Our handle on Twitter is @Unpopular_za. You are welcome to join and comment or ask questions 💛
This is too good I want to pay to watch it again. 👏🏿👏🏿
🥹 I am so emotional because I have been so deeply moved by this conversation. Dr your Devine purpose in this life is so powerful because you have impacted me to understand everything I was thinking. I’m am right
Camagu! mawaongwe amaThonga e-Afrika! Who said there are no miracles in Afrikan Spirituality?
Thank you, we need this ❤ 🙏
Enkosi for sharing so mu h knowledge mama 🙏
I love her ❤
No words can measure to this Queen. My goodness these are teachings that HAVE TO BE TAUGHT IN SCHOOLS.
Ntsiki let this conversation continue , if she still has time please let the good Dr come back, we need her . She's highly informative, she knows how to lay it there ,bese eyayihlahluba kahle for us to understand clearly, basically good at articulating,the ancient Matriarch lives through her.
Noted with love
You are soo making sense, i have recently watched the women king. It relates to what you are saying regading women leading the army
That is true on alcohol....since when is brandy is a connector with our ancestors? 🤣😂🤣....SAB is riding on that wave heavy
true
I'm glad you brought her back
56:22 Oh my God! This this woman dropped so much insightful information, you simply can't view this video clip once and grasp all the information.
in East afrika we call water Maji (kiswahili) which is derived from bantu word; in Kikamba we call it Manzī, the kikuyu call it Mahī. And now I’m gathering from this podcast that you call it la manzi, is that so?
Yes. Amanzi
@@NtsikiMazwai cool the similarities are so many
In Venda it's Madi
@@RoseSchwinn in lingala Mayi
In Sepedi ke Metsi and it's amazing how across Africa the word is similar
This is mind blowing! So insightful! We need to pass this education and insight to many Africans.
Now I'm so interested to learn the origins of the 'oTshabalala' as a Kenyan from Embu and see where the dots connect.
it's always honourable to listen to this woman.
All I can say is wow😱👏🏾👏🏾
Ubuyile futhi yoh we love her ❤
You guys really do...
This 👏 this 👏 this 👏. Thank you especially the parts on gender and Ke'met. Thank you for teaching it.
Thank you to the Kemetian ancestors who pulled through with that part, through me! I do not plan my talks. Never do. I allow the ancestors to pull through and do their thing.

Siyabulela KwiNdlovukazi uDr Tshabalala, lot of gems dropped by her on how to connect with our ancestors. Siyabulela Ntsiki for bringing her again.
💛💛💛💛Thanks from the team
Love your channel, very informative. A humble request to add subtitles as you are now reaching viewers beyond your borders.
Thank you for your suggestion Hawed444, we’ve received many requests, and are working on this 💛
I fully agree. And because I speak read and write 6 of our local languages, and also because I do not plan my talks, I just go and let the ancestors, the owners of the knowledge come through - I cannot always promise that I will speak English.
We honestly need dr Shabalala on a regular basis simfimfithe ulwazi kuye. I can so relate with her regarding christianity & the ancestors that practiced it is so me but i pass no judgment 🥲I was once devoted that side. The things she said about sangomas and which craft as well as giving prices and wanting money upfront ✊🏾. CAMAGWINI 👏🏾 great episode as always team of 10😁individuals.
Hahahaha Thank from the team of 10
This channel is VERY Important!!!!
These two episodes were powerful and educational.
I'm a proud South African Namibian, much love to this channel
