Karatasi (Paper)  - Symbolising Message for Betterment in the Afrikan History Continuum

The superlative Afrikan ability to write to read to articulate are tremendous gifts of the Creator Supreme. These qualities deified in Djehuty emerge first in the primary and soul people of creation. Tools and implements to write with or read from by the original human expressors of language and communication are likewise pioneered by this special people.  Plant based surface by which to articulate experience emerged by way of the Wadj plant of ancient Afrika. Wadj was later called papyrus by foreigners.  Pronouncements of great wisdom were committed to the  texts of Wadj  in early Afrika many of which have survived the ages into the present. The word papyrus  as popularised by foreigners is also the root of their word paper as it is used in contemporary times. The mighty thrust of superlative Afrikan genius flow since the beginning is living legacy and substance of the Afrikan History continuum. In celebrating Afrikan Historia Msimu paper isan important symbol in the scribing of Afrikan history and of the early pioneering thrust of natural resourcefulness, creativity and innovation. The Kiswahili word for paper is Karatsi.

During the genocidal Maafa of recent centuries imposed by the foreign criminal brute, Afrikan people were forcibly denied articulation of self. Reading and writing were forbidden by the wicked enslaver who would unleash torture or commit murder against the Afrikan, if the natural spirit came to the fore and one of these marvellous people was found reading or writing. Generation upon generation of soul people were subjected to forced denial in this and so many other ways. Eventually, after the murderous restrictions became problematic for the enslaving alien brute as Afrikan rose against oppression in liberty and nation; the criminal alien was compelled to become  tolerant of Afrikans reading or writing if only to save himself. In this, the strategy of the foreign criminal pirate vagabond changed. In his compelled tolerance he intended be the exclusive provider and validator of what the Afrikan is to read and write to usher into being the scourge of colonial so- called curricular. The foreign intent persists.

Even in the most recent period the living legacy of paper continues. Even in alien digital form through terminology and metaphorical representation the age-old pioneering thrust of Afrikan brilliancy is evident throughout everyday life.

Afrikan souls surely have a deep and profound responsibility to harness their superlative skills of powerful and unique genius in service of themselves and to ever-enhance and nourish the eternal flow of the Afrikan History continuum. As ever-greater numbers of Afrikans souls throughout the world read or write materials to increase knowledge of themselves, the world and to lift themselves forever onward and upwardly the Karasti of today is the inheritor of genius flow that produced Wadj paper of ancient yesteryear. Every book, magazine, journal, even money (or whatever) that exists is a testament to the Afrikan history continuum (even when filled with anti-Afrikan propaganda as an alien vice of ill).

Restoration, rejuvenation and elevation of the Afrikan natural skills for the expression and sharing of message is wonderful essential for the benefit of the global self. In this it can be said that Karatsi is Afrikan paper, a tool for Afrikan articulation – a symbol of responsibility to ensure message and enlivenment for the betterment of a whole people.
