Celebrating a Great Hero

Afrikan souls ushered into being
structures of governing themselves from the earliest of times. This was natural
to do, and the outstanding results speaks volumes when the content of the
articulation were the building of the greatest and most enduring civilisations
ever to exist.
In contemporary times the word politics has been used to refer to the art of governance. Yet, the essence of governing whether upright or otherwise remains the substance. According to a mainstream source the word governing attracts the following meaning:
“having authority to conduct the policy, actions, and affairs of a state, organisation, or people”.
Of course, the self-determined structures of normality in Afrikan souls governing themselves did not require this primary people to step outside of who and what they are whether in denial or abandonment of self. However, in a state of interruption and disruption in the name of ‘politics’ Afrikan souls can find themselves complying with self-negation to align themselves with ‘political’ entities left, centre or right. In so doing, the rhetoric concocted to justify self-denial can become of such intensity that it may be considered to be the ‘norm’ even if it is laden with falsehood with intent to render Afrikan souls in perpetual and exclusive service to the best interests of others to the dire neglect of themselves. In addition, incentivised erroneous rhetoric can become a recruitment tool for souls to abandon themselves and effect greater dedicated allegiance to such ‘political’ units whilst self-detrimental folly may be amplified in this way or that.
Surely, Afrikan souls have a level of responsibility to themselves to restore as much of their upright self-governing norm as it is best possible to do wherever they may be located. In so doing, their structures of governing can necessarily be constructed and any engagements deemed necessary with a machine of ‘politics’ to yield outcomes necessary for this primary people’s imperative and continual ascension.
Purposefully, Afrikan have continually built for themselves throughout the ages and surely contemporary times ought to be no different. Indeed, any state of interruption or disruption ought to attract greater self-constructive effort rather than less.
In relation to dealing with the challenges that Afrikan souls face, the great hero Omowale Malcolm X offers the following deeply insightful, relevant, applicable and mission-compelling articulation:
“It takes a many-pronged program to get this problem solved. But brother the man can’t give you the solution”.
Wherever Afrikan souls stand, these words can be heeded and self-determined and upright ways of governing to yield empowering results can be brough to the fore in any immediate locale. This primary people of creation have brilliantly demonstrated their magnificent ability to build superlatively and for longevity. If these souls can look into the profound depths of their self-knowing and realise their full capacity to build – then grand civilisation is not merely confined to memory recall but surely becomes an inevitable result. Certainly, it would be a travesty for Afrikan souls to forget themselves and their natural norms of upright governance. Civilisation is not of happenstance.
