Celebrating the Afrikan History Continuum

The Afrikan history continuum is powerful phenomena.
It is the thrust of experience that Afrikan people have determined to be: then,
now and tomorrow. It is physical expression rooted in spiritual-cultural fabric. History is living history. This is profoundly exemplified in the wisdom guidance of powerful deities such as Djehuti and Orunmila. It is of the Afrikan way. Naturally, it
is lived and requires no formal explanation for it is inherent in the norm of
Afrikan life ascension. However, with the advent of the Maafa in recent
centuries, there is much to be restored in Afrikan life. As such, articulating that
which would have otherwise been the norm of natural living can become a necessity
in the imperative restoration process.
In celebrating the Afrikan history continuum during the Afrikan history season, Afrikan souls throughout the world can empower and energise themselves to determine experience of victorious result. The knowing of great episodes in the Afrikan history continuum or of great heroes can be vitally important. There are however, pitfalls to surely avoid along the necessary path of ascension. Here follows is discussion on one such potential pitfall.
----
If someone you happen not to like, or disagree with, or otherwise are at odds with happens to identify with a great Afrikan hero or particular episode of the Afrikan experience, there is an unfortunate tendency to lump that Afrikan hero or episode in with the disagreement or discord. In other words, the Afrikan hero or episode can be bogusly perceived as enemy-like along with the person with whom the disagreement is with. So then, what can ensue is a destructive cascade of finding fault, attempting to chastise, or diminish, or lambast of an Afrikan hero who has then become a sort of artificial avatar or mis-conceptualized as the associate of the person with whom personal conflict is with.
This is folly and self-destructive in so many ways. Great Afrikan world heroes have dedicated themselves in a physical time space beyond the immediate present and have left their legacy to empower Afrikan souls in the now and in time to come. In true greatness, Afrikan heroes live on in spirit to empower an entire people. It is therefore, an act to thwart ascension to attempt to shoehorn great ones of the ancestral realm into the fuel of any personal physical life feud especially in the public arena where destructive impact can be greatly amplified. On the one hand, it can trend into a total misrepresentation of a great hero as the physically absent hero takes the ‘heat’ of the disliked person who happened to have called his name. On the other hand, Afrikan souls even as onlookers may be deterred from learning about or empowering themselves with the knowingness of a particular hero. Further, the parties in personal disagreement may well also deny themselves access to knowing of the great hero. Indeed, through such knowingness the actual (or perceived) disagreement may not even be valid.
Surely such efforts can result in the doing the work of the alien forces of anti-Afrikan agency by proxy. The forces of anti-Afrikan agency ‘rub their hand with glee’ at the prospect of Afrikan souls engaging in self-destructive activity in relation to the Afrikan history continuum.
----
This amongst other reasons is why the knowingness of: the history that Afrikan people have made, the history that Afrikan people are making and the history that Afrikan people are going to make is important. The Afrikan history continuum is determined by, is of and is for Afrikan souls as a world community. Rooted empowerment beyond glancing or detached intellectual processing is also key. WIth the wisdom guiding energies from the likes of Djehuti, Orunmila, Anansi and so on, the Afrikan history continuum is surely victory continuous.

This is a special time for learning, growth and development of the Afrikan experience in the world. It is a time of spiritual and cultural elevation as Afrikan history is restored to fabric of life in the living knowingness of the then, the now and tomorrow. Great ones of the Afrikan journey are highlighted and the symbols relevant to the time invigorate life in the imperative onward flow of global Afrikan ascendancy.
