Deeply Meaningful Language Throughout the Celebratory Season

It is beyond doubt and firmly located in truism that the primary and spirit people of creation ushered human language and communication into being. Brilliant innovation of language for this pioneering Afrikan people however was certainly not confined to its inception. Rather, in their natural thrust self-determined cultured living, these souls developed language to such profound depths of meaning and pinnacle heights of expression that it was rightfully identified as divine. With such excellent development and use of language one can readily appreciate and recall how superlative civilisation came to be. After all, language is a key component of cultured living. Or, to put it another way language is a key component of civilised living.  

Despite the interruptions and disruptions of the Maafa of recent centuries, the pioneering excellence of this language pioneering people continued to flow. Through language retention, adaptation and creation the soul people of the world gave themselves expression to free themselves, secure themselves and construct for themselves.  

A magnificent example of language retention and pioneering adaptation in its use, exists in the wonderful observance of Kwanzaa brought forth through the sterling efforts of the Us organ. Even the selection of language for use during this celebratory season exhibits thoughtful brilliancy as a readily accessible language of Afrikan oneness. This of course is the widespread language of Kiswahili that is key in energising the Afrikan oneness that is fabric in the observance as a whole. Then, comes its progressive use. Here, the word Kwanzaa itself is derived from the Kiswahili phrase Matunda ya Kwanza that relates to the first fruits of the harvest. The array of deeply meaningful Kwanzaa symbols have Kiswahili identifiers and its value-set is known in Kiswahili as the Nguzo Saba (Seven Principles). Each of the principles also brilliantly have identifiers in Kiswahili.  

During its seven-day celebratory period the Kiswahili greeting of, ‘Habari gani?’ (‘What’s the news?’) is responded to with the principle of focus for that day. For example, on the first day of Kwanzaa, the response to, ‘Habari gani?’ is, ‘Umoja’ as this is the first and foundation principle.

With all  of the negative pseudo-language deficits that are paraded by alien forces of ill to the glee of alien forces of ill, Afrikan souls beautifully have access to their own language constructs and use. As a powerful vehicle of self-determined cultural engagement with progressive language expression, Kwanzaa is a great boon in the security of Afrikan cultured living and expression. As such, Kwanzaa surely must be safeguarded from alien ills of destruction. Amongst such ills are the contaminants of misandry, misogyny, feminism and the thrust for a gynocracy.

In the instance, when the Afrikan soul expresses the answer of, ‘Umoja’ to the question, ‘Habari Gani?’, there is much beyond the aesthetic. This is an invocation of the foundation for a whole set of values. Such a simple yet deeply meaningful word can energise, inspire, inform and be applied for the realisation of Afrikan ascension. Indeed, the language of civilisation will surely bring it into being.
