Build Where You Stand – Educate

What sort of education did Afrikan people determine for themselves to establish the greatest and most enduring civilisations ever to exist? All of the knowing, skills, tools and constructions necessary for such exemplary expression were not the stuff of fictional fantasy that magically and instantaneously materialised from nowhere.  No, this soul people cultivated and developed themselves to produce the superlative results firmly etched in their richly endowed continuum.  This people educated themselves to build wherever they determined themselves to be.

According to contemporary mainstream source the word educate attracts the following meaning:

“give intellectual, moral, and social instruction to (someone), typically at a school or university”.

To the Afrikan in their natural norm of self-determined excellence, instructive wisdom and the necessary establishments that facilitated its sharing were a typical mainstay in their lives. However, in a state of interruption and disruption, destructively set upon by others that mean the Afrikan ill, Afrikan souls may not even be aware of the vital and empowering self-determined schooling of their highly civilised norm. Instead, this soul people may be imposed upon with intense levels of miseducation pushed and peddled to feed others intent for perennial disorder amongst Afrikans.

Whatever levels of learning may be deemed compelling, surely Afrikan souls can carve out some time for themselves, restore their necessary self-determined cultivation and development and educate themselves to build for their betterment accordingly. Naturally, if the outcomes of highly civilised construction are to be realised then the curricula for such learning ought to fit the requirement. Afrikan souls whether here, there or elsewhere at the fundamental level of functioning surely ought to hold a level of self-knowledge. Of course, the conception of such an endeavour can be relatively simple, yet, its application can be fraught with challenge in a state of disarray.

Despite the challenges, this primary and pioneering people of creation have the capacity to turn challenge into their triumph and realise their highly civilised norm. Surely, this they must do. Each soul from whatever station, level or status can make a progressive and contributory step forward in this regard.

The great hero Omowale Malcolm X insightfully and analytically highlights the failings of ‘education’ in a state of interruption with a focus on the young in the following way:

“when we send our children to school in this country they learn nothing about us other than that we used to be cotton pickers. Every little child going to school thinks his grandfather was a cotton picker. Why, your grandfather was Nat Turner; your grandfather was Toussaint L’Overture; your grandfather was Hannibal. Your grandfather was some of the greatest Black people who walked on this earth. It was your grandfather’s hands who forged civilisation and it was your grandmother’s hands that rocked the cradle of civilisation”.

Now, is the time for Afrikan souls to educate themselves in the knowingness of who and what they and develop themselves to again construct for themselves superlatively. After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.
