Celebrating the Afrikan History Continuum

The
powerful wisdom deities of the Afrikan world such as Djehuti, Orunmila, Anansi
and so on give energy to self-knowingness. This is not simply something such as
an aesthetic identifier but as deeply rooted and eternal substance of being. In
this collective self-knowingness there is collective identity of substance and
also that which is of and determined by Afrikan souls.
For Afrikan people their history and the period of its celebration has a qualifier. That qualifier is Afrikan. It is Afrikan History that is of living and continual relevance to Afrikan life. It is Afrikan people that make Afrikan history as they determine their own experiences. It is Afrikan people’s history that is recalled, energised and projected during the celebratory Afrikan history season. It is not by happenstance that the qualifier of Afrikan exists. According to a popular mainstream platform a qualifier is:
“a word or phrase, especially an adjective, used to attribute a quality to another word, especially a noun”.
So then, what are the qualities that are brought to the fore in the qualifier Afrikan as it applies to history? Surely, this basic question ought to be answered in the lived and self-determined journeying of this primary people of creation. Surely, every Afrikan soul throughout the world ought to have living knowingness of an answer. Though basic, such a question presents challenge. And surely, throughout every Afrikan history season Afrikan souls reenergise themselves to gain ever-greater depths of an answer rising to that challenge cycle upon cycle.
Despite the interruptions and disruptions of the recent Maafa Afrikan souls must surely be driven to provide themselves with the demonstrable answers as they engage in the imperative thrust of self-restoration, self-recovery and self-elevation. Even the process of restoration with victorious goals beyond the process itself as determined by Afrikan souls is worthy of qualifying attribute.
Afrikan identity, Afrikan way of life and Afrikan life’s rightfully ordered ascent is all a part of what such an important and accurate qualifier means. Therefore, when it said that the subject or focus is Afrikan history all of this and more that is determined by Afrikan souls is brought to the fore. In this, Afrikan souls are calling upon the power of themselves and to bring forth the superlative experiences of their own history continuum for purpose.
In Afrikan history, Afrikan people have a special qualifier that is worthy of the special people to whom it relates. In simply, identifying the celebratory season, Afrikan souls are invoking a spiritual and cultural call to self-empowerment. If self-restoration as needed. Afrikan souls can powerfully bring their restorative processes into fullest motion. Whatever the condition, whatever the circumstance for Afrikan souls in the world, the celebration of Afrikan history is a dutiful act of Afrikan victorious ascent. It is a punctuation to be the natural and rightful self. It has many supporting activities that assist the ever-upward thrust of the Afrikan special and progressive norm whether as learning or otherwise.
Afrikan people are of centrality in the sacred universe and as such Afrikan history is central. As Afrikan people live so too does Afrikan history. By converse, if there is no Afrikan living being recalled and Afrikan life being lived, then there is no Afrikan history. The qualifier for this naturally marvellous people’s history is no 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.
