\\\"Anuk ankh n Ma\\\'at\\\" - I Live My Life in TRUTH.
\\\"Let LOVE Be Your Religion\\\"
Imakhu, known worldwide as \\\"Water Woman\\\" and \\\"Renegade Wise Woman\\\", is a veteran performer, visual artist, activist, Kemetic Elder High Priestess, and ordained Interfaith minister.
Dedicated to the reclamation of African culture and global Sisterhood, Imakhu also shares the ancient metaphysical mysticism of the sacred art of bellydance for empowerment and global healing.
As an ordained minister and Elder High Priestess, Imakhu has provided acclaimed Kemetic spiritual and metaphysical info to the community through her lecture mp3 downloads and her ebooks, \\\"The Cowrie Blessings Book: Nu Afrakan Words of Wisdom\\\" and \\\"Understanding Kemetic (Egyptian) Magick (Order at http://www.imakhu/com/Books.html) Imakhu has become known and respected as an elder sister who \\\"tells it like it is.\\\"
As a nganga (healer) of the Shona/Ndebele tradition and Pagan activist, Imakhu is faithful to her commission to build bridges of understanding between people. A passionate and tech savvy communicator, Imakhu evolved her former Internet radio station, AKERU NuAfrakan Radio, into AKERU MultiMedia. AKERU MultiMedia is committed to providing quality cultural edutainment through production of Imakhu\\\'s videos, DVDs, music & lecture CDs, mp3s, visual art, workshops, lectures, and cultural performances. She also hosts/produces her radio/podcast show, NUBIA GODDESS RISING, which teaches African (Kemetic) spirituality, and honors the return of the Mother Goddess energy to the planet. She also hosts/produces her TV show ASHE!, seen on Princeton TV 30, across the web, and now on YouTube.
Imakhu\\\'s greatest passion is as a teacher, specializing in teaching performing/visual/literary arts to at-risk youth, senior citizens, and disabled populations.
As an actress, storyteller, and playwright, Imakhu stretches cultural boundaries with her one-woman theater productions. Her newest show, WEDNESDAY\\\'S AFRICAN CHILD: GOTH TALES OF MY BLACK PEOPLE, unfolds humorously macbre aspects of African culture.
Imakhu\\\'s popular acoustic folk music CD, \\\"Water Woman: Organic Flow,\\\" includes Imakhu\\\'s African drumming, folk guitar, singing, and storytelling. Her upcoming CD, \\\"SOULstice\\\" is due to be released in 2010.
