Celebrating the Great Marcus Garvey and His Movement

In order to have built the greatest and most enduring civilisations ever to have existed, Afrikan souls necessarily possessed levels of knowledge that facilitated the grand results. Whatever skills they utilised at the outwardly expressed operational level of their functioning, core knowledge of themselves and their authentic cultural living (creatively restored or otherwise) had to be in place. Thus, from the rooted core of knowingness outwardly expressed activities became rightful engagement in service of continual Afrikan ascension. Naturally, it is Afrikan souls themselves who are the experts of their self-knowingness and its expression of rightful order.

Unfortunately, in times of interruption and disruption where Afrikan souls may be destructively set upon by others that mean the Afrikan ill, self-knowingness amongst soul people can suffer immensely. Here, the natural expertise of Afrikan self-knowingness and its lived expression may be subject to the ills of miseducation and other forms of anti-Afrikan propaganda. Twistedly, Afrikan souls may become ‘experts’ of self-destructive activity and reduce core levels of self-knowingness to a tertiary level of importance or worse. Indeed, skills, techniques naturally of operational outward expression may be erroneously ‘positioned’ at life’s core as a ‘substitute’ for self-knowledge.  

Afrikan souls can do themselves a great service in recovering expertise of themselves through appropriate levels of learning and development. In this, it could be stated that expert learning gives rise to expert knowingness. According to a contemporary mainstream source:

“Expert learning, in the context of education, refers to a learner's ability to take charge of their own learning process, employing effective strategies and demonstrating a deep understanding of their subject matter. These learners are characterised by their self-direction, motivation, and strategic approach to acquiring knowledge and skills”.

The great hero Marcus Garvey with his exceptional wisdom punctuates the need for self-determined learning amongst Afrikan souls here, there and elsewhere when he articulates that:

“There is still room for the [Afrikan] educational system, free from the prejudices that the present educational system upholds against him”.  

Afrikan people can – and surely must – exercise duty and responsibility to themselves to bring about expert learning of themselves for expert knowledge of themselves to realise their fullest flourishing and security wherever located. At the same time, Afrikan souls ought to safeguard themselves from becoming ‘experts’ of self-destruction by proxy. To hone and operate in such as way as to bring intentional hinderance or harm to souls rightfully encouraging or facilitating the recovery of self-knowingness in service of continual Afrikan ascension is despicable at best.  Being an ‘expert’ perpetrator of deceit, deception, manipulation, gossip-mongering, the spreading of falsehoods and so on harmfully targeting Afrikan souls of upright constructive order is to invite doom to the ‘applause’ of others that mean the Afrikan ill.

 If Afrikans return to their norm of expertise in relation to themselves and in the construction of their civilisation then their self-determined learning  has its core purpose. After all, civilisation is a phenomenon that is not of happenstance.  

The observance of Musa Msimu takes place during the month of so-called August and is a wonderful time to celebrate the mighty example of Marcus Garvey and the Movement that he created led in order for future generations of Afrikans to have their guide for complete freedom and nationhood. Musa Msimu is a part of the Afrikan Cultural calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN).
