Celebrating the Great Marcus Garvey and His Movement

What sort of orientation in learning would allow Afrikan souls to build grand civilisation? It would certainly of necessity be one that is of highly positive engagement fit for the purpose. Thankfully, this primary people of creation, in building the greatest and most enduring civilisations ever to exist on the plain of humanity established richly endowed learning experiences throughout the ages.  Thus, this soul people in the now can draw upon their vast history of learning and approach to learning in order to continue to learn and to realise their self-determined life constructions of grandeur here, there and elsewhere.

According to a contemporary mainstream source:    

“Positive learning engagement refers to a learner's active, enthusiastic, and focused involvement in the learning process, characterised by curiosity, interest, and a desire to learn and apply new knowledge. It's more than just passively receiving information; it's about actively participating, seeking deeper understanding, and connecting learning to real-world applications”.

Afrikan souls, naturally driven with the upright impetus to realise Afrikan optimality regardless of geographical locale must surely exercise positive learning engagement when it comes to core knowingness of themselves and their experience as a people. In this, core learning ought to attract core enthusiasm, core focus and the like. This is the stuff of continual ascension of rightful order.

The great hero Marcus Garvey, with deep insight and wisdom eloquently articulates the following:  

“Continue always in the application of the things you desire educationally, culturally or otherwise, and never give up until you reach the objective and you can reach the objective if others have done so before you, proving by their doing that it is possible”.

Afrikan souls wherever located can certainly look to themselves throughout their history continuum to see the levels of civilisation brilliancy possible.  

 Unfortunately, others that mean the Afrikan ill may attempt to deny positive Afrikan learning engagement in relation to the Afrikan experience. Twistedly, Afrikan souls may become subject to being ‘shoehorned’ into having exclusive focus on vices of miseducation and other forms of anti-Afrikan propaganda leading to dire outcomes. In this, Afrikan souls may be pushed into the realms of having a negative posture towards learning matter that is vital, core and of themselves. According to another mainstream source:

“Negative learning engagement refers to a state where learners exhibit disinterest, lack of motivation, or even resistance towards learning activities, potentially hindering their progress and development. It's the opposite of positive engagement, where learners are actively involved, motivated, and connected to the learning process”.

Souls consumed with contaminants of ill and who wallow in posture of negative learning engagement when it comes to self-knowingness may be susceptible to becoming agents of self-destruction by proxy. Acts of wilful destruction against souls who encourage or facilitate rightful and positive learning engagement in service of Afrikan ascension may then materialise. Whether these acts include deceitful and deceptive tactics laced with harmful gossip-mongering and the spreading of falsehoods; or, attempts to deny resource or rightful support; or, outright hostile open attack – negative engagement breeds negative outcomes. Indeed, this is despicable invitation to doom that engulfs both perpetrator and target.

Afrikan souls surely have a duty and responsibility to themselves to recover self-knowingness and authentic cultured living (creatively restored or otherwise) through positive learning engagement here, there and elsewhere. After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.
