Unite, Organise Now or Perish: What of the Unity of Knowledge and Action?

Knowledge amongst Afrikan souls is both foundational and vital, especially knowingness of self. Yet, such truism does not mean that knowledge is relegated to detachment from pragmatic application. In general terms, what is known-of-self, for the Afrikan, informs the application of self. In this, one may state that on the natural norm of their holistic plain Afrikan souls hold living knowingness of themselves.

According to a mainstream source, the following describes unity of knowledge and action:  

“The unity of knowledge and action…is a concept in philosophy... It means that knowledge and action should go together and help each other. This idea says that only by behaving well can someone become wise”.

In order to bring focus specifically to the Afrikan experience, the following adaptation may be useful:

“The Afrikan unity of self-knowledge and its application can be regarded as the living knowingness of self (unity of knowledge and action). This is where self-knowledge and corresponding action go together in service of Afrikan optimal flourishing and security for Afrikan souls here, there and elsewhere. Through knowledge of self Afrikan souls can inform their well behaviour and realise their natural norm of being wise”.

Unfortunately, the scars of destructive imposition put upon Afrikan souls around the world can linger. The ill-vices of miseducation and misinformation can breed grotesque and abnormal disrespect amongst Afrikan souls from one place to the next of enslavement and colonial legacies. Yet, despite the attempts to render the Afrikan perpetually divided and internally at odds with each other, it is for the Afrikan to recover their true selves and ascend rooted in their core oneness of being. Only Afrikans can do this for themselves.    

It is surely the duty and responsibility of the Afrikan wherever located to restore a level of self-knowledge that empowers well behaviour and respect for fellow Afrikans and their achievements for Afrikan betterment here, there or elsewhere. Even as, Afrikan souls hold natural core substance of oneness, its outward realisation is self-determined. From whatever locale, station, level or status Afrikan souls can restore self-knowledge and bring to the fore their constructive efforts for the ascension of rightful order. After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.

The observance of Musa Msimu takes place during the month of so-called August and is a wonderful time to celebrate the mighty example of Marcus Garvey and the Movement that he created led in order for future generations of Afrikans to have their guide for complete freedom and nationhood. Musa Msimu is a part of the Afrikan Cultural calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation (URAN).
