When You Put a Seed In the Soil It Remains Beneath the Soil Until the Season Changes: What of Shared Historical Cultural Experience? 

The shared core substance that Afrikan souls naturally hold between themselves has empowering and pragmatically upright constructive implication. The grand heights of their superlative civilisations are eternal testaments to this. Yet, not only was this true throughout their historical past, it is a truism of the present and the tomorrows to come. Of course, for this soul people to realise the benefits of their natural shared core substance of being, appropriate levels of learning, development, security and (if necessary) restoration are relevant.  

At the fundamental level self-determined activity that is deemed experience of the past is naturally informed by the way of life that this soul people have. Hence, one may be specific in focus with a term such as historical cultural experience. To illustrate meaning here, a contemporary mainstream source offers some semblance of relevancy with the following detail: 

“Cultural experience goes beyond cultural awareness and the knowledge of customs or values. It's essentially the ability to understand, communicate with and effectively interact with people across cultures”. 

However, to bring focus upon the Afrikan experience in the historical sense and at the level of shared oneness, adaptation is considered to be apt. Alterations may then yield something that looks like the following: 

“Afrikan shared historical cultural experience goes beyond the awareness and the knowledge of customs or values of their past. Rather, it is the essential ability of Afrikans here, there and elsewhere to understand, live and communicate with each other their shared authentic cultured way (creatively restored or otherwise) as informed by their shared historical continuum. With this, Afrikan souls can effectively harness the living knowingness of their natural core of shared oneness in service of their optimality regardless of their geographical locale”. 

Unfortunately, during a period of interruption and disruption, others that mean the Afrikan ill may take it upon themselves to attempt to derail or destroy Afrikan people’s connection with their shared historical cultural experience. Ill vices such as miseducation and other forms of anti-Afrikan propaganda may be brought into play. Also, the pushing and peddling of pseudo-identities and pseudo-cultural substance may also be concocted, pushed and peddled as vices intended to cause divisive and fragmenting harm to the natural Afrikan whole.  

The great hero Omowale Malcolm X eloquently and with profound depth of insight uttered the following words of wisdom in relation to history:  

“If you don't know the origin, you don't know the cause. And if you don't know the cause, you don't know the reason, you're just cut off, you're left standing in midair. So the past deals with history or the origin of anything—the origin of a person, the origin of a nation, the origin of an incident”. 

This certainly applies to history in general and at the same time can have a specific focus on the shared Afrikan cultural experience. Surely Afrikan souls must know their shared authentic culture to live their shared authentic culture (creatively restored or otherwise). After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.
