What Economy Without Relationships?

Celebrating Economy at the Living Observance Level

The primary people of Creation naturally came to be in togetherness with themselves. Communal beingness, companionship and other inherent facets are clear benefits. Also, of fundamental value in this is the basis of self-determined economic functioning. Resource acquisition and service provision are key components but do not yield functional economy in isolation. The great thinker [Ahmose (Amos)] Wilson eloquently puts it this way:  

 “An economic system, like any other social system, is fundamentally founded on dynamically organised and systematic social relations of exchange within a community of persons and between communities of persons. And economic system does not come to existence because of the mere presence within a group or between groups of individuals or classes of individuals who posses or control commodities, items of use-value, money, and various services which other members or classes of persons may desire to possess or utilise. While such conditions are necessary for the evolvement of an economic system, they are not in themselves sufficient to bring it into functional existence. In order for an economic system to evolve within a group, members of that group must choose to enter into ongoing, organised social relations of exchange with each other based on a complementarity or mutuality of interests, purposes, values, tastes, means of production, and a functional level of trust and fidelity. The conditions sufficient to the development of an economic system are generally and best achieved within a group which shares a common ethnic, group, or national identity (especially if based on a shared gene pool), a shared history, set of experiences, customs, traditions, language, values, mythology, and culture”.

Clearly, Afrikan souls void of some sort of ordered relationship between themselves are void of an economy. Unfortunately, in their awareness of this, others that mean the Afrikan ill have sought to destroy Afrikan relationships even at the most basic level.

The naturally harmonious and complementary union between the Afrikan man and the Afrikan woman has been set upon in disastrous ways. Not least in this are the impositions of alien constructs such as that of misandry and misogyny. Thus, it is vital that Afrikan men restore their divine masculine Afrikan manhood and Afrikan women restore their divine feminine womanhood. In so doing, the naturally powerful union of harmonious complementarity can be fully realised as a crucial living standard for Afrikan economic functioning.

Group context is key. In a hostile alien-controlled environment in which multitudes of Afrikan souls find themselves in today, being a part of an organ working in the interests of Afrikan souls that is rooted in spiritual-cultural fabric is key in the fulfilment of the areas detailed by Ahmose Wilson. Here, Afrikan male-female unions can be established and work in the interests of economic functioning throughout the levels of the self. At the same time, absolutely abrasive and unworkable unions are to be avoided as this can exponentially amplify self-destruction and bring harm to the group mission.

There may be challenging life decisions to make in the process and appropriate levels of clear communication are important. To be aware of alien ills by-proxy is important here. Whilst overtly harmful or wilfully destructive communication may be readily identifiable, cliques can be formed that employ a sort of covert, suggestive, non-committal or overly symbolic ‘cloak and dagger’ approach that can breed mistrust, envy and other unhealthy ills that then bleed into intimate male-female unions with disastrous outcomes.    

Afrikan souls must surely have living knowingness of constructive and progressive togetherness that has been fabric of their lives from the beginning. As a value the word Ujamaa identifies (Cooperative Economics). The divine Afrikan masculine man and the  divine Afrikan feminine woman can surely grow in rootedness for optimal functioning as core to the inevitable self-determined victorious magnificence of a fully flourishing Afrikan economy.  

Ujamaa Kiburi Siku is a wonderful part of the spiritual-cultural observance calendar of the Universal Royal Afrikan Nation. It takes place in the first week of June marking the time of significant occurrence both on the continent of Afrika and in the diaspora concerning Afrikan economy. Ujamaa Kiburi Siku as with the other observances on the Afrikan cultural calendar is just that – an observance. Therefore, wherever the Afrikan is whether at home, at a community gathering or elsewhere it can be observed.
