Until it happens, I'll keep saying it.
The Universe and human history and our own personal history has shown us that power comes from unity and unity comes only through the organized masses.
Africans we must unite.
If not, we should just accept our plight, and not fight, for anything.
No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. (Luke 16:13)
This is why we should only identify as African.
Leave all other identifiers alone and keep them private.
Those who continue to identify themselves as things other than the word African, are separating themselves psychologically from the totality that is the African Utamawazo which unites us worldwide. Stop using other identifiers as your primary identity. Stop doing it and don't do it. If you keep identifying yourself by all these things your culture has you associating with, and you put those things before being African, you are serving more than one master, and as always will frequently and ultimately have to make a choice between the two. Truth is, you already are.
Being African is #3 on the list of optimal identifiers. For now we must leave all other identifiers alone.
Are you trying to serve a religious identity, a gender identity, a non-African identity, a political identity, a vocational identity.....?
You will always be less than optimal and always conflicted and contradictory unless you pick one and make that identity your main one that always guides your thinking and behavior.
Make Africa and African your master identity. Speak truth to power! Ours. Hours. Horus.
It's time y'all!
It's time for us to master our first and foremost identity rather than allowing our current fragmented identities to master us.
As long as you can control the institutions, you can control the [thinking and] behavior of people. - Dr. Bobby E. Wright
If you do not understand racism (white supremacy) and how it works, everything else you understand will only confuse you. - Neely Fuller
We need something to clarify everything for us, because we get confused...but if we use the concept of Asili, we will understand that whatever it is they are doing, whatever terms they use, however they come at you, you need to be thinking about what? How is this going to facilitate their power and help them to dominate me? -Marimba Ani
