PTAH Sasetem Adesua

PTAH Sasetem(TM) is a curriculum created for adults who are of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit (African/Black) heritage to utilize in the education of themselves and in the instruction of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit children and young adults. PTAH Sasetem is a seven-tiered structure rooted in the Ancestral order of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit culture. This structure is detailed in the PTAH Sasetem Nhoma (book). The consciousness and behavior of Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit children, young adults and adults is awakened and transformed through the principles and values conveyed through the seven tiers within PTAH Sasetem:

OKRA DIN

Afuraka/Afuraitkait (Africa): the value of identity

ABATUMM

Melanin: the value of physiology

MMARA NE KYI

Law and Hate: the value of function as mission

NYANSAPO

Decision-making process: the value of intelligent judgment

OBRA BO

Ethical Life: the value of good character

ASEDE

Responsibility: the value of expression

HYEBEA

Tools: the value of execution

The principles and values of PTAH Sasetem have been used to positively re-orient Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit children, young adults and adults in prevention and intervention settings, classrooms, after-school programs, day-care and home-school programs, adult and youth "rites of passage" programs and various Mentu Ra (mentor) relationships. As Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit adults, only we can ground ourselves and our Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit youth in our shared Ancestral legacy. It is imperative that we engage a process rooted in our Ancestral culture for our total development, sustenance, sovereignty and security.

Adesua (workshops) for PTAH Sasetem are 3 hours in duration and are open to Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut (Africans/Blacks) only. There is no fee for the PTAH Sasetem Adesua.

Registrants will be instructed in the seven tiers of PTAH Sasetem as detailed in the publication PTAH Sasetem and the method of implementing their principles and values. The PTAH Sasetem is designed to be implemented in seven sessions of 40 minutes. Thus, an Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit adult trained in the PTAH Sasetem Adesua will be able to effectively and fully conduct the seven 40-minute sessions with Afurakani/Afuraitkaitnit children and/or young adults once a week for seven weeks, or once a day for seven days.

In addition to functioning as a comprehensive curriculum for Afurakanu/Afuraitkaitnut of all ages, PTAH Sasetem is also the foundation for and pre-requisite to our publication and workshop: OBARIMA: Afurakani Manhood, and the soon to be published and developed OBAATAN: Afuraitkaitnit Womanhood.

Individuals who are unable to travel to attend an Adesua have the option of receiving the PTAH Sasetem Adesua DVD-package.
