Celebrating the Great Marcus Garvey and His Movement

With an outstanding journey of expressed construction and brilliancy, the primary and spirit people of creation can – and surely must – learn from their own richly endowed self-determined experience. Naturally, their pinnacle civilisations are repositories of excellence that highlight the best of structure and workings from which subsequent generations can continue to build and develop. Indeed, this is detail of the learning empowerment gleaned by this soul people of themselves in their natural norm of flourishing from one age to the next.

In contemporary times the term learning from excellence has been posited as a description of learning in this regard. A mainstream source states:

“Learning from Excellence (LfE) is a system for reporting episodes of good practice or when things work well”.

In times of interruption and disruption, the Afrikan is surely in need of such learning more so than ever. Yet, the Afrikan is faced with a host of distracts – concocted, pushed and peddled – to learn from the excellence of and for themselves. If left to the vices of others that mean the Afrikan ill, the Afrikan may not even be aware that anything of excellence came from self nor anything of good practice. Nor did anything of the Afrikan self ever work well.

Such ill perpetuations are of course laden with utter nonsense. This primary and pioneering people of brilliancy established the greatest and most enduring civilisations ever to exist. Still, it is for the Afrikan to reclaim their knowingness through a process of learning of their own accord. Indeed, it is only Afrikan souls who can restore the knowingness of themselves for their norm of continued and upright ascension. The imperative for the Afrikan to learn from Afrikan excellence, Afrikan good practice and Afrikan things working well ought never be denied via vehicles of contemptuous miseducation or otherwise.  

Afrikan souls can report on their own episodes of brilliancy with all the empowerment that it brings with a self-determined systems of engagement steeped in rightful order. In so doing, the Afrikan can restore optimal civilised living and again build superlatively. At the same time, knowingness to safeguard the Afrikan self from contaminants of ill, self-destructive wrong-doings and the like can be a vital ingredient. From whatever station, level or status each soul can take steps to recover essential core learning of self.

The magnificent hero Marcus Garvey in his illustrious wisdom eloquently articulated the following of Afrikan souls:

“You were then the chosen people of God, you had built up a wonderful civilisation and the lesser gods of earth envied you for that civilisation. They sought your company, they sought association with you, they travelled from the ends of the earth to make your acquaintance when you were God’s chosen people, when you had the knowledge of the value of love in the life of the creature in his relationship with his Creator; but when like the rest of the people who followed you who are now corrupting the principle, you went back into the wilderness, you have been sojourners in the wilderness for the millennium of your destruction, and since a thousand years are like a day to God, His prophecy foretold that at some time you would recover yourself by knowing Him, and by stretching your hands again unto Him, and when that day comes, He promises that Princes shall come out of your land”.
