When You Put a Seed In the Soil It Remains Beneath the Soil Until the Season Changes: What of Shared Observance Thrust for Remembering in the Now Here, There and Elsewhere? 

Cultural observance periods are of crucial self-determined importance to Afrikan souls, now and as they have been throughout the ages of the Afrikan continuum. In remembering a great hero such as Omowale Malcolm X, there is empowerment – amongst other things - in the recollection of a historical experience that served to realise the imperative ascension of Afrikan souls here, there and elsewhere. In this sense, Omowale Malcolm X is great at the level of the person self in qualities of transformation, character and so on. At the same time, this is necessarily in conjunction with what he represents in the upright thrust to realise the fullest flourishing and security of Afrikan souls as a whole people regardless of their geographical locale.  

Thus, having a designated period of time to celebrate, remember and honour his outstanding example, life and legacy does not mean that the memory of him is abandoned throughout the rest of the annual cycle. Rather, it surely ought to have the opposite effect, in that himself and his powerful works can be better remembered, spirit imbibed and thrust applied in the best ways possible all-year-round.  

Indeed, in a remembrance of him Afrikan souls have a focal hero and time to remember ‘the best in themselves’ for continual pragmatic engagement of rightful order. Further, Omowale Malcolm X’s own wisdom utterance of: “Of all our studies, history is best qualified to reward our research”, is inspiring, guiding and so on. Therefore, having a designated period of remembrance is both reflective and projective energising and reenergising Afrikan souls in their continual thrust of ascension all-year-round year-on-year. This is also true of Afrikan history in the wider sense, where Afrikan people determine celebratory periods for their own history. It does not mean that activity in relation to Afrikan history is confined or exclusive to that period. Again, the opposite ought to be true.  Such important periods, are also reflective and projective to energise upright engagement throughout the annual cycle.   

Within the UK, the cultural observance period celebrating Afrikan history spans the month of October. In other parts of the world, the cultural observance period celebrating Afrikan history spans the month of February. Yet, as the remembrance of Omowale Malcolm X unfolds in February for its adherents in a part of the world where February is not the time of the Afrikan history observance, the link between Afrikan souls engaged in bringing forth the recall of the experiences of self is inextricable. For example, Afrikan souls can be energised to remember themselves through the example of a great hero in the UK whilst Afrikan souls can be energised to remember themselves in whatever general sense Afrikans in the US deem fit. It is all remembering, that can empower continual progressive self-determined thrust throughout the annual cycle only be re-energised each year hence.  

With such cultural observance cycles, each year can bring forth great depths of knowing and greater thrusts of upright progression in their consistent and necessary engagement. Here, Afrikan souls can realise their ever-amplified yield from the mighty lessons remembering can produce. After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.
