What of Historical Context?

At whatever point in their richly endowed history continuum the primary people of the world wish to examine their achievements, the object of their focus naturally holds context. This soul people who pioneeringly established the world’s greatest and most enduring civilisations ever to exist acted and produced to the benefit of their upright ascension as a norm. Naturally rooted in their self-determined cultural fabric, their outward life expressions were empowered to deliver their maximal potential and capability. As such, their actions of rightful order and their resultant constructions of magnificence had meaning and purpose for their fullest flourishing. Afrikan outward expressions of brilliancy do not occur in an isolated vacuum void of their lived substance of being and the influence of their environmental factors.

In the contemporary era, the term historical context has been used to describe the fact that any particular historical occurrence does not reside in a vacuum. According to a mainstream source the meaning of the term is thus:  

“Historical context is the setting in which a historical event, idea, or object takes place. In writing, historical context includes the social, economic, cultural, and political influences”.

So what then of historical context with Afrikan souls in state of interruption and disruption? Certainly, one may posit that in such a predicament Afrikan souls are subject to the history and history making of others and not their own. Thus, historical context can become distorted or worse. If others that mean the Afrikan ill had their way upright Afrikan social functioning, Afrikan self-economy flourishing, Afrikan cultural fabric and Afrikan self-governance would surely all be perpetually suffocated into a state of deficit or destroyed. Just as it is true that Afrikan grand achievements have their historical context so too do behaviours of disorder and destruction. Indeed, with disruptive imposition the behaviour of souls susceptible to the ills of self-destruction do not exist in a vacuum.

Yet despite the challenges, it is for Afrikan souls themselves to restore knowingness of self with a reconnection to their history continuum. Here, this primary people can reconstruct and construct their historical context with the history they make for themselves in the now with their upright norms of social function, self-economy, culture and self-governance to realise their optimal ascension and fullest flourishing. From whatever station, level or status each soul can make a step of recovery in this regard and engage in the imperative thrust for rightfully ordered progress. At the same time, the Afrikan does the self a great service by safeguarding against contaminants of ill, self-destructive wrongdoings and the like.

As the unparalleled pioneers of civilisation, these souls surely have the capacity to reveal their ageless brilliancy of construction. Reliance on fictional fantasy where a magic wand of betterment is waved for the rise of this primary people can be rightfully cast aside into redundancy and replaced with upright pragmatic application of the self that holds a level of self-knowingness. Civilisation is built and secured. It is not of happenstance. Will the Afrikan make their history today? Surely, they must!
