Celebration of First Fruits

The Creator Supreme graciously blessed the Afrikan with eternal spirit life. As such, life journeying for the Afrikan is forever. The annual cycles of spiritual and cultural life are a firm part of eternal living. This is where the wonderful observance of Kwanzaa resides. It has essential role in the continual development, growth and self-determination of this marvellous people as part of their spiritual and cultural life. Whether the Afrikan is new to Kwanzaa or the Afrikan is more experienced with the season, continual development, growth and self-determination is key for Afrikan ascension in the now and the tomorrows to come.

Inspired by and echoing the vision of the great hero Omowale Malcolm X, who walks with the brilliancy and continuum of Afrikan-centred Garveyite substance, the following extract comes from the creative restoration project for Kwanzaa:

“Cultural revolution or [fight for victory] is key to the preparation and process of any other revolution or [fight for victory]. Until we break the monopoly the oppressor has on or minds, liberation is not only impossible, it’s unthinkable. For what you can’t conceive you can’t achieve. Cultural revolution is the ideological and practical [fight] to rescue and reconstruct our own culture, break the cultural hegemony of the oppressor over the people, transform persons so that they become self-conscious agents of their own liberation, and aid in the preparation and support of the larger [mission] for liberation and [the highest level of Afrikan] life. Thus, the cultural revolution is tied to and part of all forms of [missioning for Afrikan] liberation.”

Unfortunately, the alien enemy forces that have genocidally hurled the Afrikan into the Maafa of recent centuries, has attacked the Afrikan spiritual and cultural way. Foreign observations determined in the twisted alien mind what the Afrikan has always known. That is, the fundamental empowering nature of spiritual-cultural fibre to the Afrikan soul.    

Nation building is rooted in Afrikan spiritual and cultural fabric. Education is embedded within Afrikan spiritual and cultural fabric. Economics is embedded within Afrikan spiritual and cultural fabric. How Afrikan people relate or behave is embedded within Afrikan spiritual and cultural fabric. Overall direction, vision, mission for the race is embedded within Afrikan spiritual and cultural fabric. That is to say the fundamentals of life are rooted in spiritual and cultural foundations and the various endeavours of life are then able to blossom fully from that rooted base for full and sustained flourishing. Void of their cohesive spiritual and cultural fabric Afrikan life is rendered unfulfilled (at best). In such a dire state, vulnerability to the hostile whims of foreign alien forces is high, attempts at progression for the benefit of the race are open to being unattainable or short-lived. The ill examples that result from such an abominable deficit are endless. This is why the foreign forces of anti-Afrikan agency have put forth much of their dastardly effort in the vile attempt to deny Afrikan’s their own culture.

Kwanzaa is an important part of Afrikan spiritual and cultural fabric and as such this wonderful observance is part of the grand Afrikan continuum of elevation – year-on-year, decade-upon-decade, generation-to-generation and so on.  In celebrating Kwanzaa Afrikan souls of the world are actively engaged in their own self-restoration of life. As life is being restored so too is elevation manifest. From generation to generation elevation will come to a point where Kwanzaa will surely  be a celebration of the fully flourishing life of Afrikan liberty and nationhood void of hostile enemy imposition.

Dare the Afrikan neglect his or her own spiritual and cultural way in the now. Dare the Afrikan disregard or cast the wonderful celebration of Kwanzaa aside to the glee of despicable enemy forces. Such a dare ought to be inconceivable for any progressive Afrikan soul for this surely sets a course of doom for the generations to come.

Wonderfully, such a bogus notion does not enter the sphere of the ever-increasing multitudes of Afrikan souls who celebrate Kwanzaa and who are energised to become more deeply rooted in Afrikan ascension each annual cycle.

The glory, magnificence and wonderfulness of Kwanzaa lies not in the falsehood of it being an end in itself. Rather, its greatness comes from the superlative spiritual and cultural living of the glorious people it serves - Afrikan people. Kwanzaa celebrates the yield of all-year-round cultivation. Oh how beautiful, Oh how magnificent it is for the Afrikan souls of world to have their own celebration in the grand mission for victorious elevation of themselves. Kwanzaa is a conjoining celebration where the achievements of the previous cycle spring-board Afrikan energies into the newness of greater achievement for the cycle to come. This is the non-static, eternal, natural, organic and ever-ascending flow of the victorious Afrikan spirit.  

Thus, Kwanzaa observances are annual spiritual and cultural milestones in the imperative thrust of grand missioning for Afrikan ascension. The ultimate celebration of Kwanzaa comes with ultimate victory in Afrikan people throughout the world living their divinity in liberty and nationhood. Being a part of an organ is key in this process. The Universal Royal Afrikan Nation is a spiritually and culturally rooted organ missioning for Afrikan ascendancy.
