Ascension from the Economic Colony Conditions

Afrikan people are divinely blessed by the Creator Supreme to be a self-governing people - naturally so. So the mere concept of colonisation (or any other castrating infringement) is anathema to nature. Yet, alien forces of unnatural thrust that mean the Afrikan ill have caused much by way of interruption and disruption to Afrikan life. To become a colony is to be conquered and subdued by others and the service the interests of others. According to a popular online source:

“a country or area under the full or partial political control of another country and occupied by settlers from that country”.

The progressive thinker Jawanza Kunjufu highlights the characteristics of a colony:

Low per capita income

High birth rate

High infant mortality rate

Small/Weak socio-economic affluence

Low rate of capital formation and domestic savings

An economy dependant on external markets

Major export is labour

A tremendous demand for products consumed by wealthier nations

Most of the land and businesses are owned by foreigners

Indigenous entrepreneurship is limited

If these then are the characteristics of a colony and for many Afrikan souls in the world there is the overt colonisation upon indigenous soil. There are also (perhaps less acknowledged as such) are the internal colonies where the conditions may apply to those within (say) the Americas or Europe. Either way, for the Afrikan to lift themselves from the condition, self-determined effort must be brought to the fore this is a challenge globally. Yet, the colony condition described previously can rightfully be cast into the pit of redundancy through progressive transformation. As such, Afrikans could:

Establish their best possible per capita income

Encourage the limiting of births to those in formal marriage only

Be as healthy as possible

Establish best possible socio-economic affluence in genuine substance

Establish best possible person/group capital and securely invest in genuine substance

Establish self-governed market

Trade with rightful value placed on resource, product or service provision

Be value-rooted for self-betterment in their commercial consumptions

Own land, property, business and so on

Develop and grow in the sphere entrepreneurship

Ujamaa Kiburi Siku as with the other observances on the Afrikan cultural calendar is just that – an observance.
