Remembering a Great Hero

From generation to generation,
from age to age, the natural norm of self-determined Afrikan life continually
ascends. These soul people build throughout their various spheres of life. These
soul people develop throughout their various spheres of life. This soul people
are the pioneering and sustaining architects of the greatest and most enduring
civilisations ever to exist. As each generation holds living remembrance of itself,
the history of this primary people is always unfolding as determined through
their own empowerment and efforts of self-betterment. In this sense, the
history of Afrikan people is both ageless and continually being made.
The unfortunate interruptions and disruptions of the Maafa of recent centuries has demonstrated the destructive efforts by others that mean the Afrikan ill to thwart continuity of soul people’s norm of upright experience. Alien vices to detach Afrikan souls from the memory of themselves are many. Basic tactics to induce a sense of guilt by positing that the Afrikan ought to forget about that ‘old stuff’ can be heard in conversation. Less basic can be tactics of derailment that are expressed through vehicles such as mainstream media or curricula. For multitudes of Afrikan souls it may be rarity at best to even get a glimpse of Afrikan life in its natural state of pinnacle civilisation.
Despite whatever vehicles are established and governed by others to project some sort of narrative on the Afrikan experience (or void of any), it is only Afrikan souls that can restore the knowingness of themselves. It is only Afrikan souls that can empower themselves in ascension with such knowing. Thus, these primary souls of the world ought not allow themselves to become tools of self-denial and unknowingness by proxy of alien forces of ill by susceptibly pushing, peddling, or parroting the history destruction of the forces of anti-Afrikan agency. No Afrikan ought to be compelled into the dire state of total social amnesia of self.
In whatever ways each Afrikan can recover and restore some semblance of memory whether on formal or informal basis is an essential step in the restoration of pinnacle civilisation. In what some describe as the ‘information age’ their need not be an Afrikan life deficit to exist in a state of abject unknowingness of self. Whatever societal station, role or position self-knowingness for the Afrikan is key. Whatever levels of mainstream education the Afrikan has attained, not attained or is engaged in self-knowingness is key. Whether the Afrikan has gained much by way of financial resources or not, self-knowingness is key. Throughout this generation and the next, self-knowingness is key. The ageless dictum of ‘Know-thyself’ is not a tertiary nor a here-today-gone-tomorrow phenomenon. Rather, it is foundational at home, at work, at school or on-route then, today and throughout the tomorrows to come.
As the great hero Omowale Malcolm X is remembered, it is remembered that he emphatically urged Afrikan souls to remember themselves:
“Of all our studies, history is best qualified to reward our research”.
The Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN) is an organ that is rooted in spiritual and cultural fabric for the imperative the mission of global Afrikan ascendancy.
