Do you agree that it’s Time for Black people to be
proud of their heritage? Do you agree that it’s Time
for the whole world to recognize Black History? Do
you agree that it’s about Time a company came out
with a product that reminds you of the Motherland
in addition to the Time of day? If you answered ‘yes;
to one or all of the above questions, then it’s Time.
The African Secret
The colors depicted on the Motherland have specific meaning:
RED- the color of the blood which was shed of our redemption
and liberation.
BLACK- the color of the noble and distinguished race to which
we belong.
GREEN- the color of the lush vegetation of the Motherland.
(The GOLD outline represents the color of precious mineral
mined from her core.)
Wear this conceptual design proudly because it indicates that
you are in tune to the exclusive ‘Secrets of Africa’. The African
Pyramid, a structure that to this day still goggles the minds of
leading world scientists, architects, engineers, etc...How could
this advanced building technology take place at such an early
date? ‘The African Secret’ remains...
We wish you the best that life has to offer.
The African Secret has inspired a unique line of ball caps, T-
Shirts, medallions and watches.
