Celebrating the Great Marcus Garvey and His Movement

Naturally, Afrikan people are far from being a people that are stagnant or static. This primary people of creation have shown themselves to be exceptional movers on the plain of humanity throughout the ages. As such, they have moved to pioneer excellence throughout the various spheres of life’s functioning and have motioned themselves to establish the greatest and most enduring civilisations ever to exist. Even the contemporary history of this soul people - where there has been much by way of interruption and disruption imposed upon Afrikan life - shows the inherent thrust of upright motion being brought to fore with powerful examples such as that of the exceptional Marcus Garvey and his Movement.   The self-determined experiences of Afrikan people in their natural thrust of rightfully ordered ascension brings forth a vast array of lessons from which Afrikan souls in the now and throughout the tomorrows to come can learn.

According to a contemporary mainstream source:

"Learning a lesson" generally means gaining knowledge or understanding from an experience, especially a difficult or negative one, that leads to a change in behaviour or approach. It implies recognising mistakes or shortcomings and adjusting one's actions or decisions in the future to avoid repeating those issues”.

It goes on to state that:

“A lesson learned is a form of knowledge or understanding that comes from an experience, whether positive or negative”.

Certainly, the self-determined experiences of Afrikan souls in their natural norm of constructing superlative civilisation is of optimal positivity, whilst the relatively recent disruptive experiences of abnormality imposed by others that mean the Afrikan ill through enslavement, colonisation and the like represent encounters with dire negativity.  Whatever the case, there are vital lessons that the Afrikan can glean to wisely inform their necessary and continual thrust for continual ascension here, there and elsewhere.

Despicably, others of ill may take it upon themselves to push and peddle the bogus notion that Afrikan souls should ‘learn the lesson’ that Afrikan progressive movement itself is to be abandoned, neglected or derailed. In this, miseducation, other forms of anti-Afrikan propaganda and sabotage may be amongst the ill-vices of acutely destructive choice.  

At the day-to-day person level, Afrikan souls can do themselves a great service by engaging in appropriate levels of self-determined learning and development to inform, safeguard and empower their necessary and continual thrust of upright ascension regardless of geographical locale.  In this, the Afrikan can consciously embrace the lessons that emerge from their richly endowed experiences. At the same time, this soul people can rightfully assist themselves in avoiding self-destructive behaviours by proxy whether through harmful gossip-mongering and the spreading of falsehoods or other vile disorders intended to bring down souls of necessary upright constructive, positive and progressive movement. After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.
