Mitochondria and Melatonin are Essential for Life!
Mitochondria are critical to human life, providing the energy we require for all bodily processes. Melatonin is arguably the most powerful antioxidant in the human body, and it is produced in huge quantities in the mitochondria, protecting them from oxidative damage. We'll define and describe all of these things in this podcast.
Chapters:
00:20 What are mitochondria?
00:30 Mitochondria, ATP, Systemic Function and more
01:33 Mitchondria come from our mothers only
01:58 Mitchondrial Dysfunction causes many diseases
02:47 What is Oxidative Stress and Damage?
03:10 Free Radicals
04:00 Causes of Oxidative Damage
05:11 What are antioxidants
06:27 Antioxidants v Reactive Oxygen Species
07:06 Diseases caused by Oxidative Stress
07:46 Melatonin is a superpower antioxidant
08:36 Melatonin secreted by Gut, Skin and Pineal Gland
10:01 Melatonin produced in the mitochondria
11:25 Near Infrared Light triggers Melatonin production in Mitochondria

MindfulBlackDad.com
The purpose of the site is to be a directory of educational and inspirational content for parents and carers of children, particularly Black children. The idea for the site came out of my own early experience as a father of two Black boys. I spend many hours seeking out learning materials and I realised it would be a good idea to keep them in one place that can be easily shared with others.

WeAreReading (regular live streams on YouTube)
It's been said that Black people don't read. Well, I am building a comprehensive African-centred education library called #WeAreReading of in-depth and interactive studies into African Philosophy, African Culture and African History books. I cover books from authors like Amos Wilson, Marimba Ani, Oyeronke Oyewumi, Frantz Fanon, Sobonfu Some, Kwame Nkrumah and more. I stream live on YouTube every weekend. After each live stream finishes, the full session is archived for patrons.
The Panafrican Science Podcast
This is a new podcast in which I will put out regular short-form videos focused on science and technology for a panafrican perspective.

Any contributions I receive will be ploughed into these projects. My first aim is to simply cover costs - including web hosting, subscription to platforms I use, and maintaining and improving the hardware I use. Following this, I would like to reach a point where my work generates a level of income which will enable me to take time from my regular day job to increase the quality and quantity of content. Any contributions are welcome no matter the size, and no matter the frequency. Peace and blessings, Ely.

HOW R
RaceBecomesBiology
The current debate over racial inequalities in health is arguably the most important venue for advancing both scientific and public understanding of race, racism, and human biological variation. In the United States and elsewhere, there are well-defined inequalities between racially defined groups for a range of biological outcomes—cardiovascular disease, diabetes, stroke, certain cancers, low birth weight, preterm delivery, and others. Among biomedical researchers, these patterns are often taken as evidence of fundamental genetic differences between alleged races. However, a growing body of evidence establishes the primacy of social inequalities in the origin and persistence of racial health disparities. Here, I summarize this evidence and argue that the debate over racial inequalities in health presents an opportunity to refine the critique of race in three ways: 1) to reiterate why the race concept is inconsistent with patterns of global human genetic diversity; 2) to refocus attention on the complex, environmental influences on human biology at multiple levels of analysis and across the lifecourse; and 3) to revise the claim that race is a cultural construct and expand research on the sociocultural reality of race and racism. Drawing on recent developments in neighboring disciplines, I present a model for explaining how racial inequality becomes embodied—literally—in the biological well-being of racialized groups and individuals. This model requires a shift in the way we articulate the critique of race as bad biology.

Every Saturday, #WeAreReading. Please Like, click Notify Me, and share! This week in episode 8, we are reading 'The Invention of Women" written by Oyèrónkẹ́ Oyěwùmí, Chapter 3: "Making History, Creating Gender: The Invention of Men and Kings in the writing of Oyo Oral Tradition. In short, this book is a critique of Western Thought, but particularly western conceptions of gender and feminism. For Oyěwùmí, gender is a Western concept which has been imposed upon the rest of the World. This has caused particular violence where African society is considered to be innately patriarchal and misogynistic, when in fact, according to Oyěwùmí, the western ontological construct of gender simply didn't exist in Yoruba society prior to conquest and colonisation. Once the stream finishes, it will be archived for supporters. To become a supporter and access the full back catalogue, go here: https://elywananda.substack.com/.
