Being Afrikan

Oh what a magnificent, powerful and beautiful people, the original spirit ones of the Creator and the genius-filled architects of the greatest and most enduring civilisations that the world has ever been graced to behold. This is without doubt the glorious manifestation of the ones progressively, accurately and dynamically known as Afrikan.

The word Afrika is derived from an ancient Nile valley word, Afruika which amongst much else means birthplace. Throughout the years the word has been transformed to become the contemporary truncated anglicised form of Africa spelt with a ‘c’. In its original form Afruika is a compound word that carries a profound depth of meaning. For example, the Ka element means inner land in the physical sense and simultaneously highlights the Ka of the ethereal realm and one of the nine parts of the soul that relates to divine intelligence.

Afrika is a powerful name for a people that relates to their magnificent land of origin, massive expanse of exceptional history, highest culture form, pinnacle spirit substance and so much else. The use of ‘k’ in Afrika is a spiritual and cultural retention that is present in indigenous languages of the Motherland and proudly expressed in the Afrikan world community. This then is a word that represents the identity for a whole people beyond the aesthetic labels of citizenship of a particular country. Further, it embodies the continual ascendancy of a naturally wonderful people to realise maximum potential and cast aside alien cultural forms and imposed mislabelling in the bogus attempt to render the Afrikan less than him or herself.

Wickedly perpetuated since the advent of the Maafa (Great disaster) Afrikan people around the world have been overtly and covertly discouraged to identify themselves as who and what they are – Afrikan. Brutality, mis-engineering, mis-education, mess-media and other vices have been deployed to destroy the Afrikan soul. The danger of (at best) Afrikans being lulled into a false sense of comfortability with pseudo-identity is ever-present. This temporary state of interruption must surely be within the remit of every Afrikan to overturn as the rightful reclamation of the whole self and their lands is brought into being. Therefore, whichever part of the world Afrikan souls are located in the Americas, in the various islands, in Europe or on the continent itself being Afrikan is a naturally ascribed fundamental beautifulness of utmost empowerment.

Negro, Coloured, Afro-this or that, west indian, urban(ite), ghetto(ite) and the multitude of pseudo identifiers can now simply be hurled into the abyss of irrelevance. ‘Black’ as a term may hold somewhat of a descriptive idea of what this powerful people are on an aesthetic level however falls drastically short as a holistic identifier of substance bereft of connection with the mighty land of origin (amongst other things).

Countries and country names both on the continent and elsewhere are of great importance and regional pride is certainly celebratory. However, the natural imperative of Afrikan global identity should never be relinquished for the sake of any immediate geographical locale. Places such as the islands where Afrikan people now find themselves the national populous can be named accordingly. For example, Islands of New Afrika would be apt instead of the derogatory labels imposed by those that have not only enslaved Afrikan people but also wiped out the indigenous inhabitants through genocide.

Around the world, through the wicked efforts of anti-Afrikan forces collective identifiers have been imposed in sinister fashion to erroneously denote people as property, subjects, the conquered or some other descriptor to label Afrikans less than themselves.

As the progressive essential for Afrikan people to both reclaim and dynamically express their true selves the anti Afrikan forces (with evil predictable cliché strategies) will attempt a counter promotion of mis-labels, false identity and other negatives to derail the rise of this spirit people.

Such attempts are futile as the Afrikan learns from his and her own rich experience, continues the imperative climb on the path of liberty and nationhood whilst remaining undeterred by this folly. In this, complacency ought to not become prevalent and defence against the ills of derailment and the imposition of ‘sterile abstract identity’ in whatever form even if projected by Afrikans who have been mis-engineered or coerced outside of their true selves to do the sinister bidding of others. Armed with truth, consistency and integrity of identity the Afrikan will never again have this aspect of the collective self reduced to anything less than its imperative status. Generational victory is then secured.

Afrikan identity is a magnificently powerful phenomena for a whole and worldly spirit people who have an imperative responsibility to return the supreme light of awesomeness to the world. Being Afrikan is after all a naturally ascribed fundamental beautifulness of utmost empowerment.
