The Words of A Master Teacher

Taj Terik Bey What so-called "black", "negro", "colored", "African-American" (Moors) have not been taught is that they are native, indigenous and aboriginal to the Americas. That fact is not speculation. Forget what you have "heard" or been "taught" by European/Christian-based books, in public/private (catholic/protestant) schools and "churches". Researchers and scientists, both Moorish AND European, have verified documents, artifacts and antiquities that unquestionably prove that Moors originally inhabited the continent of the Americas.

Contractor And "Sportin' Man"

Then Not much is known about T. C. Windham prior to his arrival in Birmingham, Alabama in 1910's: only that he came from Arkansas, where he had substantial business interests. it is known that he was already a man of considerable wealth who had great skills as a builder and contractor. At the time of his arrival, many of the city's prominent black professional and white-collar workers lived in Smithfield, a community just to the west of the Birmingham, Alabama city center. Windham soon bought a block of real estate in Smithfield and built a two-story brick mansion that reflected not only his wealth, but also his business abilities. Located on Eighth Avenue North, it featured the best contemporary craftsmanship, including elaborately carved woodwork, stained glass, and fine furnishings. Working with his brother, R. L. Windham, Windham went on to build many other residences in the area. But it is the churches and commercial projects that now highlight the Windham const...
