Securing the History of Self: What of Historical Reconstruction?

What may be described as being historical reconstruction can be an important activity for Afrikan souls to engage in, in any age. Yet, importance for such an endeavour can become amplified in a state of interruption and disruption where the destructive efforts of others that mean the Afrikan ill to hamper soul people’s natural connectedness to their history may be prevalent.

According to a contemporary mainstream source, the term historical reconstruction attracts the following detail:  

“A historical reconstruction is an effort to re-create or revive a particular event from the past. Historical reconstructions are often used in schools as educational tools. By recreating events, students can learn about the people, places, and things involved in that event”.

In order to relate this sourced detail specifically to the Afrikan experience, adaptation is considered apt. Relevant alterations may produce a result that looks something like the following:

“Afrikan historical reconstruction is an effort (on a self-determined basis) to re-create or revive a particular occurrence from the Afrikan history continuum in service of fullest Afrikan flourishing and security. Afrikan historical reconstructions can be of important and beneficial use in the self-determined learning and development establishments of this primary people. By recreating events that have been determined by Afrikan souls themselves in thrust of their ascension, the Afrikan learner can learn about their people’s experience, places and things involved in that event as a key part of self-knowingness”.  

Especially, in a state of interruption and disruption, Afrikan souls can do themselves a great service in taking great care in determining the historical events to be reconstructed. Bearing in mind that others that mean the Afrikan ill may push and peddle reconstructions of their own shaping to render a less-than natural view of Afrikan souls to the Afrikan as well as others. Typically, the interrupted experience of the Afrikan imposed upon with enslavement or imposed upon with colonisation can be cliché periods deemed worthy of reconstruction by others. Indeed, any period where the others have dominion over Afrikan life and resources may be deemed worthy of reconstruction on an exclusive basis by others bent on stifling Afrikan life.

For the Afrikan, their natural norm of superlative civilisation, its establishment, its development and its growth and security surely ought to be a principle port-of-call in the selection of Afrikan historical reconstructions deemed worthy of optimal learning engagement – as it may apply to Afrikan life whether the Afrikan is located here, there or elsewhere. In this, reconstruction of what was can empower the construction of what is to be in the now and throughout the tomorrows to come. After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.

Afrikan Historia Msimu is an observance period for the duration of the tenth month of the year (so-called October). This is a special time for learning, growth and development of the Afrikan experience in the world. It is a time of spiritual and cultural elevation as Afrikan history is restored to fabric of life in the living knowingness of the then, the now and tomorrow. Great ones of the Afrikan journey are highlighted and the symbols relevant to the time invigorate life in the imperative onward flow of global Afrikan ascendancy.  This wonderful observance is a part of the cultural calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN).

The Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN) is an Afrikan-centred spiritual and cultural mission for ascendancy that embodies living spiritually and culturally rooted life.
