Remembering a Great Hero

The Afrikan continuum can be considered to be a vast repository of richly endowed experience that spans the ages from the very inception of human existence. Naturally, this continuum reflects the journeying of Afrikan souls from their beginning to the present day. This is of fundamental shared historical importance to Afrikan souls here, there and elsewhere.
To illustrate the important meaning of shared history, a contemporary mainstream source offers the following detail:
“Shared histories are the collective narratives of a community, encompassing its past events, traditions, and experiences. These stories form an integral part of the community's cultural heritage and collective memory”.
For the purpose of this discussion, however, it is considered apt to make adaptations and to expand this sourced detail to bring focus specifically upon the Afrikan experience at the core and shared level of oneness this soul people naturally hold. In so doing something that looks like the following may result:
“Shared Afrikan history is the collective experience of the Afrikan world community that represents Afrikan souls here, there and elsewhere. It may include narratives and traditions – amongst other things - that encompass past events and reflect the natural shared core substance of oneness that this soul people hold regardless of their geographical locale. Shared Afrikan history naturally forms an integral part of the Afrikan world community’s cultural heritage of oneness and communal collective memory. At the same time, it does not negate the Afrikan qualities that are unique to a specific region. Rather shared Afrikan history is enriched by dynamic variations that are expressed from rooted core and shared substance of being”.
Unfortunately, others that mean the Afrikan ill may set a perpetual trap of miseducation in the attempt to snare the Afrikan into abject ignorance of their shared history continuum. In this, manufactured and imposed differences may become grotesquely amplified whilst natural core substance of Afrikan oneness is wilfully ignored – or even despised.
The great hero Omowale Malcolm X, with his exceptional wisdom and foresight eloquently highlights this condition when he analyses Afrikan life in the following way:
“Ignorance of each other is what has made unity impossible in the past. Therefore, we need enlightenment. We need more light about each other”.
Surely, Afrikan souls can take heed of the thrust indicated by this great hero and engage in the necessary levels of learning and development that reveal the shared history of this primary people of creation regardless of their location. With this, Afrikan souls can surely then apply themselves accordingly and realise their optimality. After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.
