When You Put a Seed In the Soil It Remains Beneath the Soil Until the Season Changes: What of the Seeds for a Historical Future? 

The history continuum of Afrikan souls represents their past, present and future unfolding. It is this primary people’s self-determined experiences that provide the details of their historical content throughout the ages, regardless of their geographical locale. The history that Afrikan souls make for themselves today becomes the history of their past and both their past and present histories inform their history of tomorrow. In this, one can speak of the shared Afrikan historical past, the shared Afrikan historical present and the shared Afrikan historical future. 

Then, of course - and unfortunately – there may be interruptions and disruptions to the Afrikan history continuum that occur as a result of the destructive impositions by the hands of others that mean the Afrikan ill. There are interruptions that have been imposed upon the Afrikan past, there are interruptions that are set to disrupt the making of Afrikan history in the present and if left to fester will impede Afrikan history making in the future – or worse. Yet still, the seed of Afrikan history from its inception and its natural normality of growth and continual development can be a metaphor of great empowerment to its people in any age.  

According to a mainstream source, the term historical future attracts the following detail:  

“we define “historical futures” as the plurality of transitional relations between apprehensions of the past and anticipated futures”. 

Additionally, another mainstream source offers the following description of ‘seeds’:  

“In fact, seeds have always been considered a metaphor for survival and rebirth. Seeds are small, but complicated and mysterious. They have the ability to pause their growth for months or years and yet still be alive and come out of their inactivity at the right moment”. 

For the sake of pointed relevance for this discussion’s context, it is considered pertinent to compile and adapt the sourced details to reflect the Afrikan experience at their natural core and shared level of oneness. In so doing, the following may result: 

“The Afrikan historical future can be seen as the self-determined future experience Afrikan souls share here, there and elsewhere that is informed by their past, and present history making for their fullest ascension of rightful order possible. With this, the seeds of the Afrikan history continuum can be considered to be a metaphor for growth, survival, rebirth and flourishing. Seeds may appear small – perhaps may even be deemed by some as insignificant by some – but are a concentrated and sophisticated complex from which growth into life’s optimality naturally comes. Seeds have the ability to pause their growth for months or years and yet still be alive and come out of their inactivity at the right moment”.   

The great hero Omowale Malcolm X, emphatically punctuates the importance and powerfulness of Afrikan history to Afrikan people when he utters the following words of profound wisdom: 

“Of all our studies history is best qualified to reward our research”.   

After all, civilisation is not of happenstance.
