Celebrating the Great Afrikan History Continuum

How do Afrikan souls authentically, legitimately, genuinely
and with integrity access the historical continuum? One readily available route
may be the via the written word. What is
written has its own historical unfolding for this primary people of creation.
Indeed, it was the Afrikan that pioneered written articulation upon the plain
of humanity. Therefore, this soul people have a uniquely extensive and specially
endowed relationship with their continuum of self-determined scribed
articulations. In the modern era this is what may be referred to as information
history.
According to a contemporary mainstream source the term information history attracts the following meaning:
“The history of print and written culture, including relatively long-established areas such as the histories of libraries and librarianship, book history, publishing history, and the history of reading”.
If this sourced detail were to be adapted to focus specifically upon the Afrikan experience, the result may look like the following:
“The history of Afrikan self-determined print and written culture in service of Afrikan ascension and security. This includes Afrikan people’s most extensive history of their libraries, librarianship, book history, publishing history and their history of reading”.
Unfortunately, in a time of interruption and disruption, others that mean the Afrikan ill, may take it upon themselves to deny that Afrikan information history even exists and attempt to project such falsehood upon Afrikan souls to absorb.
A part of Afrikan souls vitally knowing themselves is to know of their achievements and to have their present and future unfolding informed, energised and inspired accordingly. In this instance, for the Afrikan to know that the Afrikan continuum consists of pioneering and powerfully endowed information history, can exponentially enhance this soul people’s relationship with their self-determined literature, its production, its housing and their reading of it.
Of course, ill-intentioned others may work to thwart Afrikan information production, housing and Afrikan souls reading of it. In this, the Afrikan may be faced with their time being totally hijacked and shoehorned into the exclusive consumption of materials that reflect misinformation about themselves.
Despite the challenges, it is only Afrikan souls themselves that can engage in the recovery and restoration of their information history through study and other associated avenues of self-determined effort. To do otherwise would surely be a travesty that could see this aspect of their mightily empowering history continuum being abandoned by the wayside – left for others to misrepresent and disuse at will.
This primary pioneering people of culture and civilisation surely have a duty and responsibility to themselves to realise their optimal potential and capability with the knowingness of their information history.
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.
