What of History Denial?

Celebrating the Great Afrikan History Continuum

Supposing that throughout the ages Afrikan souls were to actively deny their own history continuum in any prolonged way. This would surely have bred chaos and disorder steeped in the unknowingness of themselves and fuelling historical amnesia of their own achievements.  Each generation would be compelled to start upright progression of life as though nothing of self-determined worth came to be before them; and the benefits of accumulated knowingness and life lessons could have been devastatingly nullified. Were such imagined occurrence to have been brought into reality in their natural self-determined norm it would have been directly oppositional to their mainstay truism of superlative civilisation construction and fullest flourishing of rightful order.

Yet, in the contemporary era the phenomenon of history denial has been of noteworthy significance. According to a mainstream source the term attracts the following meaning:

“Historical negationism, also called historical denialism, is falsification or distortion of the historical record”.

Further:

“Notable examples of negationism include Holocaust denial, Armenian genocide denial, Turkish textbook controversies, denial of Kurds by Turkey, the Lost Cause of the Confederacy, the myth of the clean Wehrmacht, Japanese history textbook controversies”

In short, history denial can describe the expression of a lie or lies in respect of a people’s experience. In a state of interruption and disruption, have Afrikan souls been denied (or lied to about) their experience in the world? Certainly, if others that mean the Afrikan ill had their way the Afrikan would know nothing of themselves, their highly civilised norms and outstanding achievements.

But, let us ask the question in a slightly different way to rightfully give impetus to Afrikan self-determined traction: How much necessary restoration and recovery have Afrikan souls engaged in to know of themselves and their experience in the world? See, it is only Afrikan souls that can recover themselves. If they are void of their own efforts in this regard the vital resource of their bountiful history continuum is left neglected or abandoned. For this primary people to deny their history and to be steeped in unknowingness of themselves is anathema to them realising their maximal potential and capability now and tomorrow. Indeed, in such a dire state interruption and disruption to their continuum may avoid recognition and be erroneously treated as though it is a natural norm of their existence to be perpetuated.

For others who make it a point to ‘never to forget’ disruptions to what they consider to be the norms of their existence there is a surely a level of historical knowing to put such disruption in context in order for damage to be repaired and for it not to happen again.

Afrikan souls are the builders of the greatest and most enduring civilisations ever to exist and must surely bring forth their exceptional building prowess to realise their highly civilised norm. Interruption and disruption is abnormal and is to be recovered from and safeguarded against. Here, each soul can make steps of progress to absolve themselves of the denial of their history and restore a level of self-knowingness to empower upright ascension. At the same time the Afrikan does the self a great service by securing the self against contaminants of ill, self-destructive wrongdoings and the like. The building of civilisation have never been the result of 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).
