Remembering a Great Hero

There
are a vast range of different and meaningful ways that Afrikan souls have and
can build for their continual and imperative upright thrust of ascension.
Certainly, the plethora of necessary ways in which this primary people constructed
the greatest and most enduring civilisations ever to exist are grand testaments
to this. Here, each soul could engage in a functional role (or set of roles) in
service of particular constructs of excellence for their highly civilised norm.
The array of alternatives for each souls engagement were a choice of between the
various avenues or roles in service of construction – whether directly in
hands-on building or indirectly in functional support of building effort. This truism
prevailed wherever Afrikans determined themselves to be.
According to a contemporary mainstream source, the word alternative attracts the following meaning:
“(of one or more things) available as another possibility or choice”.
In addition, the same source offers the following further detail on the word:
“relating to activities that depart from or challenge traditional norms”.
Unfortunately, in a state of interruption and disruption Afrikan souls can find themselves subject to a vast array of ‘alternatives’ pushed and peddled by others that mean the Afrikan ill. In this, the choices are not of the Afrikan traditional norm as options to exercise best possible engagement for self-determined ascension. Rather, imposed choices to be selected from can be exclusively of options that neglect, deny, derail or nullify Afrikan construction and to only service the best interests of others. With such conditions compounded by miseducation and fallacious media narratives, susceptible souls could be grotesquely swayed to erroneously consider imposed non-constructive-of-self ‘choices’ as some sort of ‘acceptable norm’ or self-progressive ‘alternative lifestyle’ in relation to upright building for themselves.
Only Afrikan souls can restore their own levels of self-knowingness and civilised living to determine their own best choices of engagement in building for their ascension. From whatever station, level or status Afrikan souls can apply themselves to their thrust of upright construction. Indeed, the Afrikan can build wherever the Afrikan stands.
The great hero Omowale Malcolm X wisely warns Afrikan souls of results of ‘choices’ that can be made:
“Every contribution we make, we don’t make for our people, we make it for the man”.
Surely, Afrikan souls have a duty and responsibility to reclaim their superlative building acumen and use it to construct that which is necessary for their ascension. This pioneering people of culture and civilisation need not grope around in an unlighted state of unknowingness of themselves. Rather, this soul people can build in the best ways possible here, there or elsewhere. Civilisation is not of happenstance nor its necessary building efforts confined to any particular locale.
