“The historical conscience,
through the feeling of cohesion that it creates, constitutes the safest and the
most solid shield of cultural security for a people. This is why every people
seek only to know and to live their true history well, to transmit its memory
to their descendants. The essential thing, for people, is to
rediscover the thread that connects them to their most remote ancestral past.
In the face of cultural aggression of all sorts, in the face of all
disintegrating factors of the outside world, the most efficient cultural weapon
with which a people can arm itself is this feeling of historical continuity." [Mhenga Cheikh Anta Diop]
“But
history is not a mere remembrance of experience. Everything we’ve learned we’ve
learned in the past. You’ve learned to talk, you’ve learned to walk, you’ve
learned it when? Not today. You’ve learned it years ago. So if you in a purely
theoretical sense forgot all of your history, all of your experience, you would
return then to fetal state of existence; to a state of immaturity; you would be
reduced in your capacity to deal with current and present realities. Many of
the coping techniques and things that you have learned in your past would not
be useful to you because you would not have them at hand. The same thing is true then in
the life of a people; we learned a lot of things as African people; we learned
to cope with a lot of things; we learned a lot of methods and techniques for
solving problems. The forgetting of African history, the not knowing of African
history then, breeds in us a certain levels of immaturity and incapacities to
deal with problems which confront us today.” [Mhenga Amos N. Wilson]
“Who
will ever forget the massacres where so many of our brothers perished.” [Mhenga
Patrice Lumumba]
Demographic
analysis of the Afrikan continent today by the Economists of the World Bank
shows that the population of Afrikans c. 6252 KC [c. 2011 CE] in the
“semi-liberated” areas of Afrika ya Magharibi [West Afrika], Afrika
ya Kusini [Southern Afrika], Afrika ya Mashariki [East
Afrika] and Afrika ya Kati [Central Afrika] is estimated to
be approximately 900,000,000 souls. Add
to this the CIA World Factbook[1]
calculations on the number of Afrikans c. 6252 KC [c. 2011 CE] in the
Caribbean, Marekani ya Kaskazini [North America], Marekani ya
Kusini [South America], Marekani ya Kati [Central America],
and Ulaya [Europe]: 186,422,178; and the Afrikan populations of
the Dalit and Dravidian populations of India, Nepal and Pakistan: 392,500,000;
plus the Afrikan peoples of Australia: 520,000; the Pacific: 8,000,000; and the Afrikans of occupied Afrika ya
Kaskazini [North Afrika- Morocco, Algeria, Libya, Tunisia and Egypt]:
195,637,341
and the total Global Afrikan Population is an estimated 1,683,079,519 people
out of a total world population of 6,000,000,000.
Given the harsh nature of Global Afrikan life
in its current occupied and dominated, neo-colonial context which are rife with
high infant and mother mortality rates, malnutrition and other types of hunger,
biological warfare such as UKIMWI: Ukosefu wa Kinga Mwilini [Kiswahili:
AIDS] and vaccinations, economic warfare and Utamaduni warfare these
numbers may seem a testament to the Global Afrikan , 3XW/Akhu [Kush/Kemet: Spirit] of
survival, but a conclusion of that sort could only be arrived at by a socially
dislocated, Utamaduni mis-oriented and a-historical mentality. Generally, the population increase across Global
Afrika in the last fifty to eighty years, is credited to improvements in food
and health systems as a direct result of Eurasian Colonization;
a supposed positive outcome of the Ulaya
[Kiswahili: Europe] ‘Civilizing
Mission’ to the ‘Dark Continent’. A conclusion of this nature also is devoid of
Afrikan-centered historical grounding, resulting instead, from the Ulaya
Colonization of all socialization agencies including schooling and information
about the world.
Louis-Marie Maes-Diop,[2] a
demographic historian and the wife of Mhenga Cheikh Anta Diop, after a careful
analysis of Afrikan continental demographic data has determined that c. 6091 KC
[c. 1850 CE] the population of the continent of Afrika stood at 200,000,000
people. According to the c. 6189-6190 KC
[c. 1948-1949 CE] Afrikan Census, the population of continental Afrika was
counted at being approximately 125,000,000 people. From further study of population density
recorded in European and Aryan-Arab sources, Dr. Louis-Marie Maes-Diop
determined that c. 5741 KC [c. 1500 CE] the population density of continental Afrika
was 40 persons per square kilometer, which puts total population at
approximately 800,000,000 people.
Therefore between c. 5741-6091 KC [c. 1500-1850 CE] the population of continental
Afrika had decreased dramatically from 800,000,000 to 200,000,000 people. This
precipitous drop in population was followed by another dramatic decrease in
between the years c. 6091-6190 KC [c. 1850-1949 CE] when the population dropped
from 200,000,000 to 125,000,000 continental Afrikans.
In c. 5741 KC [c. 1500 CE] continental Afrika
was a densely populated continent with self-reliant, Afrikan Nyeusi controlled,
egalitarian, ethnically plural, regional empires and kingdoms. The large cities
of continental Afrika had populations ranging from 60,000 to 140,000 people,
while towns had populations of between 1,000 and 10,000 people. Other areas which were not organized under a
centralized regional government were densely populated with large dispersed
settlements organized around local forms of self-reliant political economic governance. Also, c. 5741 KC [c. 1500 CE] is also the
advent of European expansion into continental Afrika as well as the continued
movement of Aryan-Arabs south coming from the northern part of the Afrikan
continent. The violent penetrations of
Europeans and Aryan-Arabs led to political, economic and social dislocation of
Waafrika Weusi. The Aryan-Arab penetration was negligible until c. 5741 KC [c. 1500
CE] when mechanized weaponry provided Europeans and Aryan-Arabs with a distinct
advantage over Afrikan Nyeusi offensive and defensive armed forces. Advanced military weaponry allowed the
Moroccans to invade and splinter the Songhai Empire in a decade c. 5742-5752 KC
[c. 1591-1601 CE].
Aryan-Arab and European conquest in
search of natural resources and populations for enslavement led to the
disintegration of continental Afrikan Nyeusi Kingdoms which implemented the
policy of military raiding of neighbor Waafrika Weusi kingdoms to procure the
forced labour required by the Aryan-Arabs and Europeans which would be
exchanged in some cases for outmoded mechanized weaponry. The Utamboni
[Kiswahili: State of War] that ensued
lead to grassroots migrations, massive population shifts, which further
disrupted food systems, health systems and the overall social systems of
settled and nomadic continental Afrikan Nyeusi nations and communities. The breakdown of governments and social
structures created a Hobbesian state of anarchy where small groups and
individuals were forced to defend themselves against organized, foreign
subsidized mercenary hordes. The state
of social disintegration created a vacuum which was filled by European and Aryan-Arab
political and economic interests and in the new Utamaduni distortion gave birth
to the social parasite which continues to plague Afrika Nyeusi: the Aryan-Arab
or European culturally-oriented Black Colonialist Collaborator class, who in
order to escape the misery which abounded and to procure the pseudo-luxuries of
the perceived new European and Aryan-Arab powers, in selfish interest would
serve Europeans and Aryan-Arabs, as a political class of Mercenaries, ‘forced
labour’ Brokers, Wards of captive Afrikans in mini-concentration camps or temporary
‘slave’ pens, organizers and protectors of Caravans, interpreters for Europeans
and Aryan-Arabs and suppliers of provisions for the European and Aryan-Arab interlopers.
The continental Afrikan Nyeusi population decrease in the period of c. 5741-6190
KC [c. 1500-1949 CE] from approximately 800,000,000 to 125,000,000 resulted
from the murder of millions of the Wahenga na Wahenguzi at the hands of Afrikan
Comprador Collaborators[3] in
service to European and Aryan-Arab political economic interests. But the question now arises: Who were these
675,000,000 continental Afrikans whose lives were stolen during the Maafa Mkubwa [Kiswahili: Great Suffering]?
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered
in the hundreds of thousands in the military invasions and raids conducted to
procure forced labour.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered
in the hundreds of thousands during the hellish, torturous forced march of
several hundred kilometers over desert and savannah, disease infested swamps
and tropical jungle from the interiors of the Western Afrikan Sudan and the
East Central Afrikan Interior to the West and East Afrikan coasts.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered
in the hundreds of thousands attempting to escape from forced labour coffles,
from mini-concentration camps, from boats which transferred them from the shore
to the ships at sea and from the ships themselves.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered
in the hundreds of thousands as the social disintegration led to increases in
military raids for forced labour and caused refugee population migrations.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered
in the hundreds of thousands during the wars which resulted between Kingdoms
and by mercenary Afrikan societies such as the Waimbangala of Ngola, which
participated on the side of, or in the employ of the interlopers from Europe
and Arabia.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered
in the hundreds of thousands as the food system was destroyed and followed by
food shortages, famine, malnutrition, chronic under-nutrition, mal-absorptive
hunger and disease and plagues mushroomed.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered in the hundreds of thousands as
the public health system collapsed and was eroded with the loss of
public health managers and the drop in hygienic standards.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered
in the hundreds of thousands as the social collapse led to a loss of Wahenga na
Wahenguzi Knowledge and Wisdom and the destruction of institutions which
perpetuated Utamaduni Mkubwa ya Afrika and their replacement with the corrupt Utamaduni
of Europe and Arabia and the belief systems of Islam and Christianity [See:
Insert 1.16] and the creation of a new cultural creature steeped in
self-interest and individualism- the Black Colonialist Comprador Collaborator.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered
in the hundreds of thousands as the mechanized weaponry which had been acquired
in trades with the Europeans and Aryan-Arabs exploded in the hands of the users
in the Afrikan armed forces which made heroic efforts to stem the tide of death
and destruction.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered in the hundreds of thousands as colonial armies
invaded and slaughtered the defending Afrikan military forces and defenseless
Afrikan communities.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered
in the hundreds of thousands as 9 out of 10 Afrikan male captives between the
ages of 8 and 10 taken into the East by the Aryan-Arabs were slaughtered in grotesque,
inhuman emasculation operations to make one Afrikan eunuch and as Afrikan
female captives succumbed to disease and death associated with genital
circumcision, rape and far too early pregnancies as concubines to Arab
Pedophiles.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered
in the hundreds of thousands as millions were slaughtered in the Sudan a
renewed effort beginning in c. 6061 KC [c. 1820 CE] with the invasion by Aryan-Arab
occupied Egypt under the leadership of Muhammad Pasha Ali and continuing to the
present day as Aryan-Arabs continue to massacre and enslave Afrikans from the
Sudan to Mauretania and justify their actions with the Quran.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered
in the hundreds of thousands by the Boer invaders in Southern Afrika who waged
wars of extermination and later confined Afrikans to ‘Bantustans’, i.e.,
concentration camps or in American parlance, reservations.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered
in the hundreds of thousands as approximately 100,000,000+ Afrikans were
slaughtered in order to take 45,000,000 Afrikans captive into the Americas to
be used as chattel slaves.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
were murdered
in the hundreds of thousands: 675,000,000 to satisfy the Mercantilist and Capitalist
desires of Black Collaborators, Europeans and Arabs. The Afrikan continent
which suffered at least 90% of the damage to Global Afrikan peoples was
devastated, the captives taken into foreign lands in the East and West were
socially dislocated, dehumanized and transformed into grotesque caricatures of
Europeans and Arabs; all were traumatized, culturally corrupted and left in a
state of social, spiritual, political and economic dislocation, uncertainty and
insecurity.
Waafrika Weusi: the
young and elders, men, women, girls, boys, babies born and babies in the womb,
prisoners of war, refugees turned captives, collaborators become detainees,
were confined then imprisoned in the forced labour camps of the Americas and
Asia. Forced to slave through mental and physical torture, dehumanized, and
commoditized: this is the Maafa Mkubwa,[4]
the Great Suffering of the Afrikan peoples.
The Maafa Mkubwa was, as has been shown,
supported, justified, financed and profited from by professed European, Jewish
and Aryan-Arab followers of each of the so-called World Religions of Judaism,
Islam and Christianity. Each religion
was and is utilized politically by Judaic practitioners, Aryan-Arabs and
Christian professing bourgeois elites in Europe and Arabia with the support of
their Black Colonialist Collaborators in continental Afrika and the Afrikan
Diaspora to further the political economic aims of the ruling class of Eurasia
of Utamaduni annihilation, economic exploitation, political subjugation and
genocide of Global Afrikan peoples. It
must not be forgotten that even the books, the Tanakh, the Bible and the Quran,
upon which each of the World Religions is based as well as religious policy
supported such acts. The official
policies of the Church were clearly not at odds with war, enslavement or
genocide. The Bible clearly casts a blind eye to Enslavement and Genocide [Insert
1.17 - 1.18D]. Even more so Judaism
and its adherents played a continuous key role in the ongoing onslaught. Practicing Judaism, did not prohibit Judaic
Practitioners. After their expulsion from Iberia, Judaic Practitioners were
heavily involved as financiers, merchants, plantation owners, auctioneers, HMT R/Hemet Re [Kush/Kemet: Etc.] in the Portuguese Enslavement of Afrikans
beginning in approximately c. 5685 KC [c. 1444 CE], in the Portuguese
‘possessions’ of off West Afrika and later in South America in Brazil, and in
the Caribbean namely on the islands of Jamaica, Suriname, Barbados, Curacao, Martinique, Nevis, Saint
Dominique, Saint Eustatius, Saint Thomas as well as in the Dutch
colonies of New Amsterdam in North America in the colonies of New York, Rhode
Island, and in the American south in places like Virginia and South Carolina. [Insert
1.19]
The Maafa Mkubwa in all of its hellish horror
was merely a continuation of European socio-economic political and cultural
policy which had been developed by them upon their own peoples.[5]
The war and devastation which the Europeans and Aryan-Arabs brought to continental
Afrika had only recently been visited by the elites upon their own people in
their own lands and would continue into the present era. One need only consider the treatment meted
out to the Kagots who lived in the northern part of the Iberian Peninsula and into
the Western regions of contemporary France.
A people alternately known as indigenous to the region or as descendants
of the West Afrikan Moors and the local peoples, the Kagots were completely
segregated from the society, forced to live in separate residential areas,
prevented by legal statue and social prejudice from migration and even required
to participate in all religious functions in much the same way that Afrikans
would be treated in the Americas: entrance through special doors, participation
in communion from separate communal cups and so on. The Kagots however, were not of a different
race or ethnicity and had always been in the area where they were severely
persecuted facing burnings, maiming and execution. The main distinguishing mark
of being Kagot was the work occupations, which they were limited to by law:
construction, slaters or tilers. Kagots
could not sell anything edible, be found inside a city before sunrise or after
sundown, nor could Kagot women purchase things in the market on any day except
Monday. If a Kago woman broke this prohibition she would be flogged. Furthermore, any physical contact with the
Kagot, including the brushing of clothing was considered a harbinger of disease
as they were seen as lepers and was prevented by social edicts, thus
intermarriage was prohibited. The
persecution of the Kagots continued from approximately c. 5041-6161 KC [c. 800-1920
CE].[6]
Another example is the depopulation
mechanisms in European peninsular history known as: 1) the “Hundred Years War” c.
5578-5694 KC [c. 1337-1453 CE] fought between Britain
and France and also including conflicts involving Italy, Portugal and Granada
which due to its deleterious impact on the food and health system led to the
Bubonic Plague and the Black Death ravaging the populations; 2) the Peasants
Revolt in England in c. 5622 KC [c. 1381 CE] in which the peasants were
defeated by the nobility in the revolt against social and economic
exploitation; 3) the German Bundschuh
Peasants Revolt c. 5734-5758 KC [c. 1493-1517 CE] and the German
Peasants War c. 5765-5766 KC [c. 1524-1525 CE] in which the German grassroots
rose up against economic and religious exploitation of the ruling elites and
over 100,000 were slaughtered as the old order was maintained; 4) the Eighty
Years War between Spain and the Dutch Republic c. 5809-5889 KC [c. 1568-1648
CE] in which the Dutch won their independence; 5) the Thirty Years War c. 5859-5889
KC [c. 1618-1648 CE] in which Protestant States and Catholic States slaughtered
one another over political and economic power under the guise of religious
difference, the result leading to further war between France and Spain c. 5889-5900
KC [c. 1648-1659 CE]; 6) the Swiss Peasants War c. 5894 KC [c. 1653 CE] in
which Swiss Peasants revolted over economic exploitation and were defeated.[7]
On the eve of European so-called global
‘Voyages of Discovery’, these and many other conflicts had led to Europe being
poverty ridden, diseased and depopulated labour becoming a scarce resource thus
playing a role in the collapse of the Feudal order which rested on the exploited
labor of the peasants. The Utamaduni and
institutional degradation, economic devastation and reorganization and
political subjugation that the European aristocracy and economic elite would
later inflict upon continental Afrika, Asia and the Americas, it had
assiduously practiced and perfected upon its own populations over centuries c. 4941-6141
KC [c. 700-1900 CE] on the British Isles and the European Peninsula.
In fact Europe was [is] a land ridden by ethnic and economic warfare c. 4941- 6261
KC [c. 700-2020 CE]. The societies were
[are] highly stratified with severe
subordination and degradation of women.
Aristocratic elites exercised absolute power over the grassroots
assigning
them the social, political, economic and cultural role of serfs or virtual
slaves, later to transition to wage slaves.
All political and economic institutions were [are] controlled by the Aristocracy, leading to sustained efforts at
total control of the consciousness of the grassroots. Germany alone, in its history experienced
over fifty peasant revolts from c. 5577- 5766 KC [c. 1336-1525 CE]
prior to the establishment of the second German Reich. The revolts resulted
from unequal distribution of income which continued to increase to the point
that the interval between the wealthy aristocracy and the impoverished peasant
grew exponentially. The aristocracy continued to increase the tax burden of the
peasant. The perpetual state of war between the German Aristocracy and other
countries led to a state of inflation as the price of basic goods rose beyond
the ability of the peasants to purchase and lack of basic goods reduced health
and increased famine and plagues. The
reasons given for the continuous peasant revolts are quite familiar today as
they are the outgrowth of the inhuman social systems of Europe, of which
Germany is an excellent example. Germany fought in the Thirty Years War c. 5859-
5889
KC [c. 1618-1648 CE] and further impoverished its peasants. The Protestant
Reformation c. 5758-5889 KC [c. 1517-1648 CE] which led in part to the Thirty
Years War and the Counter Reformation c. 5786-5889 KC [c. 1545-1648 CE]
engendered further violent political, economic and religious strife disrupting
the lives of the peasants and causing untold death and destruction, while
depopulating Germany to the point that the population was reduced from
16,000,000 to 10,000,000 Germans. Germany was then invaded and therefore at war
with France and the Ottoman Empire c. 5919- 5938 KC [c. 1678-1697 CE]
and then with Austria c. 5981- 6004 KC [c. 1740-1763 CE]. Germany in
turn invaded and dismantled the Polish state c. 6013-6036 KC [c. 1772–1795
CE] and was at war with France again c. 6033- 6056 KC [c. 1792-1815
CE] following the French Revolution of c. 6030 KC [c. 1789 CE].
This period encompasses the Napoleonic
Wars c. 6032-6056 KC [c. 1791-1815 CE] which were a Global European war and
included the leading countries of Europe: Britain, Spain, Germany, Hungary,
Russia, Portugal, Sweden, the Netherlands and Switzerland , France, Poland,
Holland, Denmark, Ottoman Empire, and Norway, in a variety of alliances and
groupings, while France waged war against Ayiti [Haiti] c. 6032- 6044 KC [c. 1791-1803 CE] attempting to
defeat the Ayitian Wanamapinduzi [Kiswahili: Revolutionaries] in their
liberation struggle. Following the French, English, Spanish and American
defeats in Ayiti, the Napoleonic Wars would be centered in North Afrika and
Europe c. 6044-6056 KC [c. 1803-1815 CE] with the eventual defeat of Napoleon
and the continued decimation of Europe. Following
the French defeat in the Napoleonic Wars Germany would be racked by war from c.
6056- 6107
KC [c. 1815-1866 CE] experiencing the multiple revolutions within the
Confederated German states in c. 6089 KC [1848 CE], which were part of a larger
Mapinduzi [Kiswahili: Revolutionary] movement which swept across France,
Poland, Italy, and the Austrian Empire as well. The Mapinduzi movement was
seeking to end among other things the economic imbalance in society, but
instead, resulted in the death of thousands from the European grassroots
and
the retention of the old economic order. Germany and Austria would again go to
war in c. 6107 KC [c. 1866 CE] and Germany would organize itself into the
Second German Reich or Imperial Germany from c. 6111- 6159
KC [c. 1870-1918 CE].
This perpetual state of war for
political economic dominance of which Germany is only one example of the
routine in Europe would extend itself into a global struggle amongst the Mabila [Kiswahili: Ethnic Groups] of Europe to gain supremacy over the
resource rich areas of the world. In c. 6125
KC [c. 1884 CE] following centuries of warfare over control of the European
mainland and over the imperial domains of Britain, France, the Dutch, Portugal
and Spain the Germans organized the Berlin
Conference
on the Partition of Afrika to facilitate European Conquest, political
subjugation, economic reorientation
and "Humanitarian Development"
of continental Afrika. Germany too wanted to extend itself into the
sphere of conquest and colonization in continental Afrika. One of the
intentions of the Conference the ending of the constant state of war among the European
nations failed as from c. 6155-6159 KC [c. 1914-1918 CE] the
nations of Europe were locked in internecine
warfare for World White Imperialist Supremacy,
the so-called “First World War,”
which
would lead to the birth of the Union
of Soviet Socialist Republics a nation with a European socialist political
economic orientation which was and is anathema to the Western Powers. Afrikans-French
Senegalese Native Troops, British Native Regiments of Nigerians, Rhodesians, HMT R/Hemet Re [Kush/Kemet: Etc.], and
the Afrikan
Diaspora-French Guyanese and
Martinique Regiments, American-Afrikan Units in the United States Infantry, HMT R/Hemet Re [Kush/Kemet: Etc.], with the urging of collaborative oriented,
western schooled, trained and selected ‘Black Collaborationist Leaders’ [Insert
1.20], were used as fodder in
the militaries of the Western nations fighting for control of the immense material wealth
of the conquered
and colonized lands of
Afrika.[8]
This particular global struggle by
European powers[9]
led to a Capitalist economic boom and then a depression and an upward re-distribution of wealth in the
Western
countries and erosion of the ‘Middle Class’ buffer between the Upper Class and
the grassroots
of
the poor, known as the “Great Depression” c.
6161-6179 KC [c. 1920-1938 CE]. Heavily impoverished Afrikan grassroots
in the Diaspora and on the Continent generally
were unaffected by
the Capitalist economic boom and depression. In the Diaspora, Afrikans were already extremely steeped in
poverty
resulting from White Supremacist institutions such as poor if any vocational
training and Sharecropping in the United States.
Economic reorientation through the conversion from self-reliant domestic
food provision to cash crops for international export and the implementation of
forced labour on colonial plantations and the money economy on the Afrikan
continent also bred impoverishment; and the peasants of the Afrikan continent
were still an ‘un-captured’ group in the World Capitalist Economic System,
meaning their general economic existence was still outside of market forces. To
an extent it still is in the present.
This state of affairs which touched off
hyper-inflation across Europe, especially in Germany gave way to a resumption
of war among the Mabila of Europe. For the years c. 6180-6186 KC [c. 1939-1945
CE] saw the Mabila of Europe engaged in yet another internecine war for World White Supremacy, i.e., the
so-called “Second World
War.” Afrikans once again served as human fodder in the Western militaries
struggle for dominance over Afrikan continental resources. The end of this particular European
conflagration was also the beginning of the latest stage in the expansion of Afrikan political independence movements led
in the main by western trained, European oriented, Black Colonial Elites.
In yet another effort to eliminate war among
the Mabila of Europe, from c. 6187-6198 KC [c. 1946-1957 CE] the victorious
countries of Europe set up the United Nations, the General Agreement on Tariffs
and Trade [GATT], which became the World Trade Organization [WTO] in c. 6236 KC
[c. 1995 CE], the International Monetary Fund [IMF], the International Bank for
Reconstruction and Development and enacted the Bretton Woods System, which
required member countries to implement a monetary policy which would regulate
exchange rates by tying all currencies to the U.S. Dollar. Each country’s currency would be valued in
terms of U.S. Dollars, which was convertible into Gold until c. 6212 KC [c. 1971
CE] when the United States ended the convertibility of Dollars into Gold. The
Dollar now being Fiat Currency or money that has value as a result of the power
and enacted laws of a government. Even more importantly, the value of a
currency would be determined by the relationship of its supply and the demand
for the currency. By linking all currencies to the U.S. Dollar, the demand for
the Dollar and its limited supply increased its value. All of this was developed and implemented in
preparation for the Post-War World, which was forecasted to be filled with nominally
politically independent Afrikans managing the former colonial institutions set
up by European colonists. The goal was
the re-establishment or adjustment
of the mechanisms of institutional control for the continuation of Western Economic Imperialism.
The
period of c. 6198-6235 KC [c. 1957-1994 CE] would be marked by Wars of Liberation
which pitted National Liberation movements against western-backed, reactionary,
counter-revolutionary forces in the political independence movements of Afrika,
Asia and the Americas and by the so-called East/West “Cold War.” In the Western countries of Western Europe
and America, no actual fighting
occurred, but a “Hot War”
was rampant on the fringes of the Union of Soviet Socialists Republics and
throughout continental Afrika,
Asia and South America
subsidized financially and militarily by the Western and the Soviet Bloc
Countries. Overall this time frame would be defined by continued economic
impoverishment and political and
economic
destabilization of continental
Afrika and the Afrikan Diaspora by Western
powers aided
significantly by Afrikan
Compradors who provided unlimited access to their European and Aryan-Arab
masters. In this regard it should be noted that North
Vietnam emerging victorious from its neo-colonial war with the United States c.
6195-6216 KC [c. 1954-1975 CE] showed that where there is no internal enemy,
the external enemy has no power.
The years between c. 6235-6261 KC [c. 1994-2020
CE] has been delineated by continued Western financed Warfare renamed Regime
Change, Political Destabilization and Political
Re-Colonization of Neo-colonized Afrika and the Afrikan Diaspora through the support
of Black Colonialist Collaborator Reactionaries such as Mobutu Sese Seko and
Papa Doc Duvalier, all of this currently being accomplished under the guise of a Western
"War on Terrorism," the
so-called implementation of Western defined Democracy; and the provision of
"Humanitarian Aid"
to combat hunger and UKIMWI:
Ukosefu wa Kinga Mwilini [AIDS]. These actions being thoroughly in
sync with the Western use of organizations such as the United Nations and
private Non-governmental agencies both financed and controlled by the Western
powers and used as a means of entering into a politically, militarily or
economically destabilized country or rather a country that they have
politically, militarily or economically destabilized,[10]
under the auspice of the banner of ‘Humanitarianism’. All now currently
under the leadership of the latest European power to assume the chairmanship of
the European quest[11]
for continued global dominance: the United States of America [Insert 1.21].
The United States of America maintains are
precarious hegemony based on warfare or the ‘politics of barbarism’ over a
western defined International Political System where all politically ‘engaged’
nations interact in a political economy defined by a contest of military strength,
in the manner of the Portuguese and Spanish Conquistadors, and embark on a
Grand Strategy of con-quest for power over the other and for peace as the pacification
of dissent and the violent end of all resistance. Given the interdependence
between military capabilities, research and development and macroeconomics,
military expansion of empire faces increasing economic problems that result
from over-extension which weaken the internal structure of the imperial
heartland due to the stress placed on the domestic economic system, which in
reality carries the burden of the economic costs. So the United States and its Western Allies
preside over a system whereby warfare is properly defined as violent political
economy negotiations waged by coerced impoverished peasants of one nation
against the impoverished peasants of another nation on the behalf of the
controlling elite.
The hegemony is precarious as the preponderance
of military technological superiority of the European Alliance is at best of
extremely, limited conditional utility, where circumstances seldom provide the
ideal conventional warfare situations for massed non-linear, military
engagements and economic blockades in which the relative might of the European Alliance
in maneuverability, technology and speed, could be brought to bear. A situation
of this nature does not exist anywhere in the world as traditional or Wahenga na
Wahenguzi based non-western, anti-comprador state actors that are in many cases
also anti-European, anti-neocolonial movements enjoying grassroots support and
thus causing the European Alliance to function in a hostile environment where
grassroots civilians and liberation soldiers are indistinguishable. As all
social institutions have melded into a total institution of resistance where
the population having clearly perceived the interdependence of European political
economy interests and the recurring European initiated warfare, utilize
asymmetric rural guerilla and urban guerilla warfare techniques,
political-psychological warfare and terror tactics aimed at economic resource
infrastructure. In this atmosphere warfare ‘degenerates’ into preventative
warfare especially on the part of the European Alliance and attrition warfare
where the grassroots non-combatants are displaced from their ancestral lands by
the European initiated war, and interned in refugee camps established by European
developed and controlled ‘humanitarian’ agencies, the national infrastructure is weakened to
the point of debilitation and also where European military personnel and their
comprador proxy martial forces are psychologically enfeebled and physically
weakened through repeated non-conventional assaults, which gradually
deteriorate the socio-psychological will to continue and induce an increase in
trauma defined, ‘self-justified’, ‘savage’ sado-masochistic, reprisals against
non-combatants.
All European Alliance military engagements
since the end of the European war for control of the International Political
Economy of Exploitation c. 6155-6159 and c. 6180-6186 KC [c. 1914-1918 and c. 1939-1945
CE] demonstrate the contemporary precarious nature of United States hegemony.
The European War on the Korean Peasants, the War on Vietnamese Peasants, the
multiple invasions and massacres of the Ayitian Peasants, the War on the Iraq
Peasants, the War on the Palestinian Peasants, the War on Libyan Afrikan
Peasants, the War on the Afghan Peasants, the War on the Syrian Peasants all
provide succinct evidence of the changed nature of European Hegemony and of the
European manipulation of revolution through sponsoring counter-revolutionary
organizations all in an effort to maintain hegemony. The term peasant is here
used as it denotes etymologically[12]
the rural people who today are called peasants and in ancient times were called
by the Latin word pagans another word
which denotes rural. All additional baggage which has been attached to the word
such as socially and technologically backwards, poor, unlettered, illiterate or
uneducated are all European discourse concepts designed to dehumanize the
worlds majority. The reduction of rural people through discourse manipulation
serves to provide the cover for European and Afrikan Comprador expropriation
and exploitation of Afrikan grassroots natural and rural human resources under
the guise of Economic Development.
European Capitalism, European Socialism, European
Communism, enslavement, Afrikan Political & Economic Co-optation, Genocide,
Murder, Narcotic Drugs & Addiction, Afrikan youth Pregnancy and Uanaharamu [Kiswahili: Bastardization], Rape and Violence against the Afrikan
Woman, girl and infant, Afrikan on Afrikan Violence, Afrikan Civil War, Homosexualization
HMT R/Hemet Re [Kush/Kemet: Etc.], all
of these despiritualized relationships are symptoms of the central Afrikan problem
of the 61rst and 62nd Centuries KC [20th & 21rst Centuries CE]:
the lack of substantive counter-vailing Uweza
wa Afrika [Kiswahili: Afrikan Power]!
Following the ‘completion’ of the military conquest of continental Afrika by
the Europeans in the early c. 6140s KC [c. 1900s CE], the Utamaduni foundation
and physical material of Afrikan Military and Politico-Economic power was
shattered. More succinctly:
"Colonization
did not construct a new society, it did not civilize
Afrika, did not
modernize it as it would have become modernized
without foreign
influence. Naked commercialism wiped out the
old values and
traditions without putting anything in their place.
A multitude of half
baked structures and systems was erected,
only to be rejected
today by the Europeans who invented them."[13]
Meaning
the ability to amass standing armies for offensive and defensive purposes and
the ability to provide Utamaduni definition, and politico-economic guidance and
support on a national scale had been severely eroded. Since that time
with the exception of cursory guerilla defensive activities, Afrikans have been
at the mercy of the European Alliance with no coordinated, substantive means of
political-economic and cultural strategy of defense and, or offense. Since
the Conquest as a result of mis-education through European and Aryan-Arab schooling,
i.e., training institutions Afrikans have been seeking assimilation into alien Utamaduni
Structures for the most part; and have been acculturated with alien Utamaduni
ideologies which are then used by Afrikans against themselves.
By calling a country European or
Aryan-Arab, focus should not be exclusively placed on the racial or ethnic
character as defined by pigmentation, the specific emphasis here is on the
mental state, the predominant cognitive-affective Utamaduni residing in the
heads of the people of the country. For example, the Sudan is a country of
Waafrika Weusi; however, the cognitive-affective Utamaduni of the Political
Elites in the country is Aryan-Arab to the point that they consider themselves
Arabs and not Waafrika Weusi. Another,
example is the European cognitive-affective Utamaduni in the heads of the
Political Elites in several Afrikan countries, the Black Bourgeoisie of E.
Franklin Frazier or the Black Colonialists of Chinweizu. Examples in this case
are the Political Elites of so-called Afrikan America, Nigeria, Tanzania, Kenya
and South Afrika.
Since c. 6190s KC [c. 1950s CE] Afrikans
have participated in "National Independence
Movements" both emancipatory and violent, under the guidance of
visionary leaders such as Mhenga Marcus Mosiah Garvey, Mhenga Malcolm X, Mhenga
Patrice Lumumba, Mhenga Mwalimu Julius Nyerere, Mhenga Osagyefo Kwame Nkrumah, Mhenga
Sekou Toure, Mhenga Amilcar Cabral, Mhenga Oginga Odinga, Mzee Robert
Mugabe, HMT R/Hemet Re [Kush/Kemet: Etc.]. Each recognized
that what had actually occurred was not liberation. For instance Mhenga
Oginga Odinga noted that that what had been attained in Kenya was not Uhuru, and
that more had to be done consciously and economically.[14]
And just as in the Kushite Hebrew Viasili of the Temple of Yahweh teaches that
it was not for David King of Israel to build the new Temple to the Kushite
Hebrew Deity Yahweh, for his role was that of the establisher of the Kushite Hebrew
Kingdom and his descendant King Solomon had the duty of building the symbolic
heart of the nation; so it is with Global Waafrika Weusi today metaphorically
speaking. It was not for the independence generation to complete
the task of Global Waafrika Weusi Re-Construction, they through their words and
actions have set contemporary Global Waafrika Weusi on the path of the Waafrika
Weusi Way. It is for the current generation of Global Waafrika Weusi to learn
from the successes and mistakes and continue the task. Global Waafrika
Weusi cannot leave the political apparatus that now holds sway in Waafrika
Weusi countries in the hands of Afrikan Comprador Neo-Colonialists political
class who are little more than apologists and sycophants acting on behalf of European
Imperialism. And who exactly are the Afrikan Comprador
Neo-Colonialists? The Afrikan Comprador
Neo-colonialists’ European Masters as their creators are best able to describe
them. Though the descriptions below were of the Nigerian Comprador Class it is
applicable to the whole of Global Afrikan peoples of contemporary times:
“…The interests of a
large native population (should) not be subject
to the will…of a
small minority of educated and Europeanized natives
who have nothing in
common with them, an whose interests are often opposed to theirs…” [Frederick
Lugard, 1920]
“It can only be
described as farcical to suppose that…continental Nigeria
can be represented by
a handful of gentlemen drawn from a half-dozen coastal towns-men born and bred
in British-administered towns situated
on the seashore who,
in the safety of British protection, have peacefully pursued their studies
under British protection, have peacefully pursued
their studies under
British teachers, in British schools, in order to enable
them to become
ministers of the Christian religion or learned in the laws
of England, whose
eyes are fixed, not upon African native history or
tradition or policy,
nor upon their own tribal obligations and duties to their
Natural Rulers which
immemorial custom should impose on them, but upon political circumstances,
arising out of a wholly different environment, for
the government of
peoples who have arrived at a wholly different stage
of civilization…” [Hugh
Clifford, Governor British Nigeria, 1920]
“…The worst effect of
education in Nigeria has been the manufacture
of bad imitations of
Europeans instead of good Africans.” [Alan Burns,
Chief Secretary of
Nigeria, 1924][15]
Under such circumstance Global Afrikans
cannot turn their backs on government and political participation and say that
the institutions are corrupt, that the institutions are the creation of Europe,
HMT R/Hemet Re [Kush/Kemet: Etc.]. For in so doing the following type of
character will step into the vacuum:
"The politicians
and administrators of black Afrikan states have
degenerated into
highly privileged and highly disillusioned cliques
with no care beyond
the material concerns of their own closed shop
...Foreign aid resulted
mainly in the creation of a parasitic caste of government employees whose
overriding ambition is to appropriate
for themselves an
ever increasing proportion of public revenue....
Urban privileged
minorities who have replace the white coloniser-
of their abusive
profits, their total disregard of the public interest,
and of their alliance
with neo-colonialism. The same emergent Afrikan bourgeois classes are to be
found in power over practically all Afrika..."[16]
Neither
can Global Afrikans seek solace in the imported colonial versions of the religions
of Christianity and Islam or in Judaism, nor in an abstract detached Afrikan ,
3XW/Akhu [Kush/Kemet:
Spirituality]. To
begin with, neither migrating Judean refugees following the
first Judean-Roman war of c. 4307-4314 KC [c. 66-73CE], and the second and
third Judean-Roman Wars of c. 4356-4358 KC [c. 115-117 CE] and c. 4373-4377 KC [c.
132-136 CE], who practiced Judaism, nor the missionary proselytizers of Christianity c.
4275- 6261 KC [c. 34-2020 CE], or even the
evangelistic propagandists Aryan-Arab merchants of Islam c. 4881-6261 KC [c. 640-2020
CE] who came after the Christians, taught anything new to any Afrikan Mabila in
any of the territorial states in continental Afrika into which they
journeyed. Beginning with the violent
shift of the Christian Movement from its Northeastern Afrika-contemporary North
Afrika, the Eastern ‘Horn’ of Afrika and Southwestern Asia, i.e., the Arabian
Peninsula, incubator to Europe proper, i.e., Roman Europe, the old Roman
elites, who became Bishops and Cardinals of the new faith following their two
century persecution of the original North Afrikan Nyeusi Christians, co-opted
those aspects of the systems of , 3XW/Akhu [Kush/Kemet: Spirituality], beliefs, , 3XWY/Akhuy [Kush/Kemet: Spiritual] rites and ceremonial rituals of the Temples of
the Afrikan Mabila of the Utamaduni
Mkubwa ya Kush and KMT/Kemet.
Rites and
Rituals that are associated with the Temple ,
TP HSB/Tep Heseb [Kush/Kemet: Methodology] of Worship of the , NTR ‘З /Netcher-aa [Kush/Kemet:
Yah, Allah, and God] in the NTR
‘З /Netcher-aa’s expression as the
Wahenga na Wahenguzi Amen-Ra, , ЗST/Auset, , WSIR/Ausar,
, HRW SЗ ЗST SЗ WSIR/Heru Sa Auset Sa Ausar [Kush/Kemet: Heru son of Auset, son of Ausar], , PTH/Ptah, , XPR‘/Khepera, , DHWTY/Djehuty, , MЗ‘T/Maat, , HWT
HRW/Het-Heru, HMT R/Hemet Re [Kush/Kemet: Etc.], and to which either they believed they were
able to understand, or which they interpreted as being in some way in agreement
with their own patriarchal, misogynistic, sadist Roman Culture were
incorporated. All other aspects of the spiritual systems of the Afrikan Mabila
of the Utamaduni Mkubwa ya Kush and KMT/Kemet were burned or otherwise destroyed and declared
as heretic or against , NTR
‘З /Netcher-aa [Kush/Kemet: Yah,
Allah, and God] with the
Temples themselves being:
1) Defaced and converted into Christian houses
of worship,
2) Vandalized and left to decay, or
3) Defaced and used as building material in Christian Churches, and
public buildings and later under Muslim rule as material in Islamic Mosques,
public buildings and palaces.
The very
peoples of the Utamaduni Mkubwa ya
Kush and KMT/Kemet from whom so
much of Christian Mythology, rites and rituals was taken are the same Afrikan Mabila
whom the Roman Catholic Christians and their descendants in the Protestant
Christian Churches, would later label as heathen, barbaric, savage and
uncivilized, and then by imperial decree would close down the Afrikan centers
of Higher Learning which were under their political control. Today what passes for Christianity is a
conceptually watered-down, fanatically-emotionalized, unreasoned anti-thought,
Europeanized fundamentalism, which is spread by the uncivilized and insane of
Europe and their neo-colonized, schizophrenic offspring. Much the same can also
be said of Judaism and Islam.
Furthermore, ,
3XW/Akhu [Kush/Kemet:
Spirituality] for the sake of ,
3XW/Akhu [Kush/Kemet:
Spirituality] or as an escape from the
very real problems of the Global Afrikan people does not alleviate the symptoms
of European and Aryan-Arab conquest. Global Afrikan ,
3XW/Akhu [Kush/Kemet:
Spirituality] is a dynamic, national liberating movement that
moves the Global Afrikan to psychological, sociological, political, economic
educational, theological, religious, ideological, entertainment and health liberation.
An example of progressive Afrikan ,
3XW/Akhu [Kush/Kemet:
Spirituality] is Mhenga Francios
Mackandal an Ayitian Afrikan Vodun Priest and Afrikan Utamaduni traditionalist
who used Afrikan Utamaduni traditions to unite geographically dislocated Afrikan
Maroons in political economic struggle against the French on the island of
Ayiti from c. 5992-5999 KC [c. 1751-1758 CE], in Mhenga Dutty Zamba Boukman, a
Ayitian Afrikan Vodun Priest and Cecile Fatiman, an Ayitian Afrikan Mambo, i.e.,
Vodun Priestess, who conducted a religious ceremony in Ayiti in which a National
Liberation Covenant was affirmed between the Wahenga na Wahenguzi, the NTR
‘З /Netcher-aa, the Beautyful Ones Not Yet Born and the
oppressed, enslaved Ayitians. The Ayitians under the inspiration of the Wahenga
na Wahenguzi acting through Zamba Boukman and Mambo Fatiman were encouraged to:
Koute lalibete nan tout kè nou! [Listen to
the voice of liberty which
speaks in the hearts of all of us!]
Additionally, in Prayer Zamba Boukman invoked
NTR
‘З /Netcher-aa in the following ,
SNSW/Senesu [Kush/Kemet:
Prayer, Supplication]:
"Bon Dje ki fè la tè. Ki fè soley ki klere nou enro. Bon Dje
ki soulve lanmè. Ki fè gronde loray. Bon Dje nou ki gen zorey
pou tande. Ou ki kache nan niaj. Kap gade nou kote ou ye la.
Ou we tout sa blan fè nou sibi. Dje blan yo mande krim. Bon
Dje ki nan nou an vle byen fè. Bon Dje nou an ki si bon, ki si
jis, li ordone vanjans. Se li kap kondui branou pou nou ranpote
la viktwa. Se li kap ba nou asistans. Nou tout fet pou nou jete
potre dje Blan yo ki swaf dlo lan zye. Koute vwa la libète kap
chante lan kè nou." [Ayitian Kreyol]
“God who created the earth; who created the sun that gives us
light. God who holds up the ocean; who makes the thunder roar.
Our God who has ears to hear. You who are hidden in the clouds;
who watch us from where you are. You see all that the White has made us
suffer. The White man's God asks him to commit crimes.
But the God Within Us wants to do good. Our God, who is so good,
so just, He orders us to revenge our wrongs. It's He who will direct
our arms and bring us the victory. It's He who will assist us.”
This
Vodun Ceremony is considered a primary catalyst to the mobilization,
organization and coordination of the grassroots uprising and insurgency that
signaled the genesis of the Ayitian Mapinduzi Movement in c. 6032 KC [c. 1791
CE].
Though the Mapinduzi leader Dutty Zamba Boukman would
eventually be murdered by the French Colonial forces and the guidance of the
Ayitian Revolution would fall into the hands of men such as Jean-Francois
Papillon, Georges Biassou, who were participants with Dutty
Zamba Boukman at the Bois-Caiman Vodun Ceremony and later to Toussaint L'Ouverture,
Henri Christophe and Jean Jacques Dessalines, whose
allegiance to the Wahenga na Wahenguzi, Vodun ,
3XW/Akhu [Kush/Kemet:
Spirituality] and the Afrikan Way was negligible
to non-existent, with perhaps the exception of Jean Jacques Dessalines, who is
the only one of the first three leaders of the Ayitian nation, the other two being
Toussaint
L'Ouverture and Henri
Christophe, to be declared a Saint of
the Vodun Faith. The Vodun ceremony and the success of the military phase of
the Ayitian Revolution demonstrates operative Afrikan ,
3XWY/Akhuy [Kush/Kemet:
Spiritual] liberatory agency. However,
even here one can see the bedevilment of the , 3XW/Akhu [Kush/Kemet: Spirit] of the Comprador, for example, in Toussaint
L'Ouverture, who came to eventually
rule Ayiti with his strong affinities for France
and French Utamaduni probably due to his enslavement socialization, French
Catholic religion and enslavement ‘status’ as a coachman. He would promulgate the suppression of the Vodun faith during his rule and his
policy was continued to a lesser extent under Henri Christophe and virtually
ended under Jean Jacques Dessalines. [Insert 1.22]
Global Afrikans have to engage in grassroots
community organization, mobilization, political economic engagement & Afrocentric
economic reconstruction rather than European Economic Development and begin the
Second Chimurenga of Global Afrikan Liberation. Global Afrikans must take
what they have and make what they want! In this case power must be seized by
progressive grassroots Global Afrikan forces through the the political economic
process, which is in place throughout much of Global Afrika. No, it is
not an easy task. Yes, it will involve Struggle, and even more so, it must be done. It should ever be remembered, just how
important the current arrangement is to the current European powers. Mhenga
John Henrik Clarke informs us that:
“We need to examine the events in Africa and in
Europe from 1400
through 1600 A.D. This is a pivotal turning point
in world history.
This was a period when Europe was awakening from
the lethargy of
its Middle Ages, learning again the maritime
concepts of longitude
and latitude and using her new skills in the
handling of ships to enslave
and colonize most of the world. Europe
recovered at the expense
of African people. African people were soon scattered throughout the Caribbean, in
several areas of South America and in the United States.”[17]
And
let us also consider the following quote from former British Prime Minister Winston
Churchill:
“Our possession of the West Indies gave us the strength, the
support,
but especially the capital wealth, at a time
when no other European
nation possessed such reserve, which enabled us to come
through
the great struggles of the Napoleonic Wars...but also
to lay the foundations of the commercial and financial leadership which
when the world was young... enabled us to make our great
As
Mhenga John Henrik Clarke and the European Imperialist Winston Churchill here
acknowledges British Imperial power rested on an economic foundation of the
exploitation of Global Afrikan enslavement and the wealth generated allowed the
British Imperialists to subsidize and successfully wage war against their
Imperial rival Napoleon of France on a global scale and then to eventually
colonize large swaths of the Afrikan continent; and, as the research of Eric
Williams and Walter Rodney[19]
affirm the current arrangement of International Political Economy which ensures
a position of power and dominance to the countries of the European Alliance,
led and protected by American military hegemony rests upon Global Afrikan
subjugation, the history which has been here recounted. Such a position of
power will not be easily or willingly given up nor will any meaningful or
substantive effort at power-sharing occur. Power sharing in a system of
corruption does not alter the general state of imbalance. Given the nature of the current political
economic arrangement Global Afrikan development means a reduction in European
power as the political economic power of Europe rests on Global Afrikan
impotence. It is in an effort to maintain the global power imbalance through
ensuring continental Afrika’s role as a natural or raw resource provider to the
nations of the European controlled International Political Economy System that
the United States Africa Command [Africom] was established under the Office of
the Under-Secretary of Defense for Forces Transformation Resources and National
Security Policy at the National Defense University Fort McNair, Washington D.C.
As the former head of U.S. Africom Vice Admiral Robert Moeller stated during his speech at the
United States Africom Conference at the National Defense University Fort
McNair, Washington D.C. on 18 February 2008:
“Protecting the free flow of natural resources from Africa
to
the global market is one of Africom's guiding Principles.”[20]
To change this situation Global Afrikans
must fully engage in the continuing development of a Global Countervailing Uweza wa Afrika [Kiswahili: Afrikan Power], through progressive populist
political-economic engagement in the communities of the Global Afrikan Diaspora
and in the Nations of Continental Afrika. As a note on the issue of power it
should be comprehended that the election of President Barak Obama as President
of the United States of America in c. 6249[c. 2008 CE] and c. 6253 KC [c. 2012
CE], does not represent substantive political economic engagement on the part
of the grassroots of the Afrikan Diaspora and it is not real change. Instead,
the elections are nothing more than apparent change and are merely an example
of elite manipulation of the grassroots for elite ends. American politics is
primarily Plural-Elitist in nature, which means that competing elites who agree
on the basics of the social order as well as on the projection of hegemonic
power but who disagree on the methodology of implementation engage in
structured political campaigns or combat.
Each is represented in general by one of two parties, and each sets the
rules of political participation so as to eliminate the development of any real
mass oriented populist parties. The
Plural-Elites choose candidates that agree on the basic rules of the social
system and fund them placing them before the mass public and to varying degrees
opening the corporate media them. The
grassroots are allowed to choose among safe interests as defined by
Plural-Elites. The sudden ‘rise’ of Barak Obama through the American political
system is akin to the placement of Enslaved Afrikans as Generals in the Arab
armies of conquest, even when these enslaved Afrikans seized power they ruled
in accordance to Arab cultural paradigms. The power structure, which includes
the ruling ethnic[s] group[s], any police apparatus, governors, bureaucrats, HMT R/Hemet Re [Kush/Kemet: Etc.], serve, manage, administrate, enact, enforce the
policies of the ruling class in a country in any historical time. If they seize
power ‘illegitimately’ or obtain it ‘legally’ they rule according to the
dictates of the dominant Utamaduni, seldom if ever do they do otherwise. None
of the Enslaved Afrikans Muslims who were made generals or who became Caliphs,
Viziers and the like used their power for Afrikan Liberation. The Afrikan
Septimus Severus who became Emperor of Rome c. 4443-4452 KC [c. 202-211 CE] was
an excellent Roman Emperor ruling according to the rules set down by Rome from
its inception as a regional power in c. 4750 KC [c. 509 CE] He did not seek to
liberate conquered Afrikan lands.
President Barak Obama during his two Presidential Administrations has
continued the economic and military policies that were implemented by President
George W. Bush. At best President Obama has engaged in pseudo-symbolic
political action towards Global Afrikan people. During his Presidential Administration
the fundamental sociological, economic, political, psychological, historical,
and religious relationships between Eurasians, Americans and Global Afrikan
people has not changed. It is still defined by European domination. To go a
step further, the idea that the Executive office of any nation is the center of
power is obsolete in an International Political Economy where Corporations weld
enormous economic power and paramilitary capabilities and mass produced
sophisticated military weaponry. The
actual core of power more appropriately resides in the G8 Finance Ministers and
the Central Banks of the economic powerhouses of the Triad composed of the
United States, the European Union, China and Japan.
To return to the subject of Global Countervailing
Uweza wa Afrika [Kiswahili: Afrikan Power], through progressive populist
political-economic engagement, the begin the type of substantive progressive
policies which must be enacted by Afrikan governing bodies include:
” 1) Active Afrocentric
action through strategic delinking from the current International Political
System,
” 2) The formation of
regional and sub-Saharan integrated closed domestic economies secured
politically and militarily by sub-Saharan political confederation under the
Afrikan Union and shielded by protectionist economic policies,
” 3) Resource
nationalization and a substantive rewriting of the current laws of conducting
business throughout sub-Saharan Afrika by removing so-called tax break
incentives for foreign corporations doing business in Afrika, which are in
reality nothing more than a means of passing the burden of doing business away
from the Multinational Corporation and onto the grassroots Afrikan populations
who are in theory supposed to be benefiting from this example of Foreign Direct
Investment and resource development,
” 4) Removal of public
policy hindrances to worker unionization,
” 5) Elevation of craft
and trade unions to government ministries,
” 6) Subsidized
elevation of worker pay to life sustaining levels;
” 7) The implementation
of egalitarian measures such as a progressive graduated taxation on the wealthy
Afrikan Comprador Class and Foreign Corporations, justified by considerations
on the nature and methods by which that wealth was acquired, over centuries namely
through murder and the exploitation of Afrikan labor and lands in an economic
system which privileges European mabila over Global Afrikans even in Afrikan
lands,
” 8) Policy of
extensive government investment in rural health and education,
” 9) Subsidization of
rural small farmer agriculture through programs aimed at women farmers working
through formal and informal local women cooperative organizations,
” 10) Establishment of
a guaranteed income,
” 11) Immortalization
of the Rights of Nature through the setting down in stone in the manner of the
Wahenga na Wahenguzi and the placement throughout the nation of markers
commemorating the enactment of communal laws enshrining Rights of Nature and
the protection and expansion of indigenous forestation;
” 12) Enactment of laws
protecting the sustainable, holistic use of the land, respecting the sanctity
of the earth and, forbidding non-Afrikan land ownership and use.
” 13) Enshrining
communal land ownership and social land guardianship in honor of the NTR, in
remembrance of the Wahenga na Wahenguzi and on behalf of the Beautiful Ones Not
Yet Born;
” 14) Extensive state
and local coordinated infrastructure development, infrastructure maintenance
and infrastructure rehabilitation utilizing Global Afrikan technical expertise
and Global Afrikan labor only;
” 15) Regional National
and local coordinated industrial policy centered on inter-Afrikan manufacture,
inter-Afrikan trade and mutual inter-Afrikan development,
” 16) Subsidization of
industries such as artisan and textile manufacturing;
” 17) Limitation or
severe constraining of capital export,
” 18) Revaluation of
Afrikan currency theory and the foundations of exchange rates,
” 19) Creation of a resource/gold
backed sub-Saharan wide currency minted from gold and used in all transactions
involving Afrikan Nationalized Natural Resources and all other economic
exchanges and serving as the reserve currency of all Global Afrikan peoples. Such
a currency will shift the balance of global power to sub-Saharan Afrika as
under such a currency the wealth of a nation would center on resource/gold
reserves as opposed to the current system which determines wealth based on the
total amount of U.S. Dollars exchanged. In this system the U.S. Dollar along
with the European Union Euro is in high demand with the U.S. Dollar being the
current reserve currency globally;
” 20) Setting and
enforcement of minimum import levels;
” 21) The unified invalidation
and nullification by sub-Saharan Afrikan grassroots of the Afrikan Comprador
initiated debt which is a tool of neo-colonialist control of Afrikan resources
through the subtle methodology of western centered international finance and
imperialist controlled international trade; and
” 22) The total rejection
and complete abandonment of Imperialist Foreign Aid.
These
public policies recognize that Global Afrikan nations must follow a course of self-reliant
action which leads to the extrication of Global Afrikan economics from the fallacy
of Free Market discipline, while advocating and implementing high levels of
domestic market protectionism from non-Afrikan markets.
The colonially imported, militarily imposed European
doctrine of Free Trade and Open Market Economics is centered on the economic
fallacy that consumer spending and grassroots consumption is the fundamental basis
of national prosperity. This idea is a
fallacy with regards to neo-colonies, which have had their internal economic
structures destroyed or coercively altered from the doctrine of national
self-sustaining, self-sufficiency to that of imperial economic dependency. In point of fact, economic consumption is
intimately connected with economic production and economic production is the
actual basis of national economic prosperity. When a government, for example a
developing country government, or in the Global Afrikan case an Afrikan nation
under going reconstruction, centers its political economic public policy on the
theory of consumption, that government is automatically focusing the economic
well-being of the grassroots of the nation on the current, present consumption
of currently existing commodities, goods and services. In a neo-colony or
developing country which has an economic infrastructure designed to export raw
resources to former colonial imperial masters there is either an unprotected
small scale industrial sector, such as textiles, for example, or no existing
internal small or large scale industrial structure with a supporting
educational system thus all or the vast majority of existing commodities, goods
and services are of foreign origin. As
all political economic policies are designed to support Free Trade, which means
that there are no political economic barriers in place to protect local
enterprises from well-developed multi-national corporate enterprises of North
America, Europe, Asia and increasingly South America the local Afrikan economy
becomes a dumping zone for cheaply produced goods, which are also of a poor
quality when compared to locally made handicrafts.
On the other hand a political economic public
policy designed around economic production is future oriented. Such a public policy gives careful
consideration to both the details of the production of commodities, goods and
services as well as to the circumstances under which commodities, goods and
services can be sustainably produced in a continuous fashion at unvarying
intervals and are therefore conveniently accessible for grassroots consumption
in the long term. A long term economic public
policy centered on production also gives careful thought to the rate of
consumption of commodities, goods and services over time by the grassroots as
it is interdependent on the rate of production of commodities, goods and
services, also to the average rate of growth of the grassroots population, to
long term procurability of commodities, goods and services by the grassroots or
the distribution of such items among them, as well as to resource availability
in the event of the probability of natural and man-made disasters which can
severely cripple or totally annihilate the resource base and industrial
productive capabilities of a nation. Hence natural prosperity and the
well-being of the grassroots is dependent on the state of development of
productive capacities and its related industries, those that feed into the
industrial system and those that depend on the product as the basis of their
business activities and not on an economic public policy of consumption. Free Trade is a public policy best adapted
and applied only with regards to the internal trading relations of the
grassroots of a political community and not to external trading relations among
nations, especially amongst nations that have imperfectly developed internal
economic structures. As an economy is the outgrowth of an Utamaduni, any Utamaduni
that seeks to utilize a particular economy must adapt it to fit the norms and
values of their Utamaduni. Free Trade is
born of an expansionary hegemonic Utamaduni and is a belief under the larger
theory of Savage Capitalism, the ideology of catastrophe. For Free Trade Capitalism to be used by Global
Afrikan societies it must be adjusted to fit the Utamaduni norms of traditional
Afrikan Mabila.
Additionally, the protectionist political economic public policies here advocated
enshrine into contemporary Global Afrikan Law:
”
The Customary Sacred Rights of Life of Afrikan
Communal Societies designed to ensure the right of each member of each extended
Afrikan family to a self-reliant, socially oriented, psychologically and
spiritually remunerative community-enhancing profession in the industries,
crafts, trades , agricultural arts or national mines of whichever Afrikan
nation they reside without prejudicial regard to ethnicity, religion or gender;
”
The Customary Sacred Rights of Life of Afrikan
Communal Societies brought forth to guarantee the opportunity of each member of
each extended Afrikan family to produce or earn enough to provide optimally
adequate food, clothing, and shelter;
”
The Customary Sacred Rights of Life of Afrikan
Communal Societies established with the intentionality of protecting the right
of every Afrikan farmer to raise enough food to feed the extended family and to
provide a surplus for the community and nation as a means of making certain
that Afrikan society consistently maintains a state of food security, with the
farmer being able to sell his surplus products at a government subsidized price
which will provide the extended Afrikan family with a dignified living;
”
The Customary Sacred Rights of Life of Afrikan
Communal Societies evolved by the Wahenga to secure the inviolable right of
every Afrikan Social Entrepreneur, both those of large scale and small scale
enterprises, to trade in an communal atmosphere of Uhuru, which is devoid of
government corruption, unharmonious competition and domination by local or
foreign monopolies with local monopolies being restricted in size and foreign
monopolies being totally excluded from Afrikan Market participation;
”
The Customary Sacred Rights of Life of Afrikan
Communal Societies founded by the NTR to assure the sacrosanct right of every

family-compound/home;
”
The Customary Sacred Rights of Life of Afrikan
Communal Societies protected by NTR and Wahenga and confirming the right to
optimal medical care and the right to nutritious foods which make certain the
achievement and enjoyment of quality optimal health;
”
The Customary Sacred Rights of Life of Afrikan
Communal Societies existing since the beginning of autochthonous Afrikans and
guaranteeing the right to a free, quality optimal Utamaduni Mkubwa ya Mwafrika
education and vocational schooling.
What is being suggested is a Global Afrikan
oriented program designed to provide a self-sufficient, sustainable livelihood,
standard of living to all Afrikans by redistributing the common-wealth of the
Afrikan nation among all of the people throughout all segments of Afrikan
society. The Elimu-Maadili [Kiswahili:
Ethics] of such a program
stems from the moral reprehensibility of an Afrikan government allowing ANY of its citizens to be reduced to a
status of impoverishment, i.e., to be forced to be without optimally adequate
food, clothing and shelter even while the country is a net exporter of food and
clothing is abundant, but priced out of their ability to pay and optimal
housing is unavailable as a result of a lack of income. All of these symptoms stemming from a violent
economic system of structurally induced genocide born of domination and
exploitation. This is an economic system which transgresses customary Afrikan
law which is based on Heshima na Faradhi [Kiswahili: Honor and Obligation]. It violates the sacred nature of
life a value common to all Global Afrikan peoples. Most importantly such a system of economics
upsets the natural order and harmony of life; dispossessing MЗ‘T/Maat in favor of ISFT/Isfet.
The current economic system of domination and exploitation is an
extremely destructive force sparing no one, crushing woman and man, girl, boy
and infant, young and old and the Beautyful Ones Not Yet Born. The established socioeconomic and
socio-political structures murder Global Afrikan people by the millions. The
enslavement and colonization of Global Afrikans and the enslavement of women
and children for forced labor and sexual trafficking today are socioeconomic
institutions which are supported by socio-political institutions and murder
millions through political and economic violence. The economic policies,
supported by political violence or the threat thereof, which allow the ruthless
exploitation and murder of billions across the world by market-oriented
Multinational Corporations and political elite collaborators in all countries
is yet another example of how the legal structures of European domination can
be and generally are sadistically violent. As Jacques Ellul stated:
“Unjust economic
systems can be as violent as rampaging armies:
“All kinds of
violence are the same ...the violence of the soldier who
kills, the revolutionary
who assassinates; it is true also of economic
violence-the violence
of the privileged corporate owner against his
workers, of the 'haves'
against the 'haves-not'; the violence done in international economic relations
between Western Nations and those
of the developing
world; the violence done through powerful
corporations which
exploit the resources of a country that is unable
to defend itself.”[21]
The affluence of the Western Nations depends
on unjust economic structures that enrich the West and result the grassroots of
Afrika, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, and internal Global Afrikan
colonies within the Western Nations, for example, American Afrikans in the
United States, diseased, hungry and impoverished. Land throughout the Global
South is used to grow export crops to sell to the Western Nations. That land
ought to be used to feed the grassroots in those countries, but it isn't given
that the masses cannot pay and the Western Imperialists can. By their
consumption based lifestyles, the economic structures they blindly participate
in which support those lifestyles and the political system which they maintain
by participating in system preservationist symbolic politics, i.e., voting, all
of the citizens of the West participate in murder. The economic straits, in which Global Afrikan
nations find themselves due to the voluntary participation of the Afrikan
Comprador political class, also result in the skewed distribution of resources
within Global Afrikan society. Afrikan
countries and communities have a wide disparity between the small comprador
elite wealthy class and the
grassroots.
Economic reconstruction of Global Afrikan society is an economic and political
impossibility as long as between 80-95% of the nation’s wealth is concentrated
in the possession of between 1-15% of the population.
To obtain the goal of providing a
self-sufficient, sustainable livelihood, standard of living to all Afrikans a
ceiling should be set for annual income, net worth and inheritable wealth by
the design and implementation of a progressive graduated income and inheritance
tax. Furthermore, the Nationalization of Natural Resources and the tax on the
revenues generated there from will be an additional source of revenue to
finance the social programs. The taxes
generated will used for:
” Public works
infrastructure development and maintenance such as of dam, road and bridge
construction;
” Providing Wazee over
a certain age with a Superannuation Fund;
” Providing Afrikan
families which have an income below a set income floor with a guaranteed family
income stipend which will allow for the provision of certain communally
determined life necessities on an annual basis;
” State subsidized
primary, secondary and university education, vocation schooling and employment
programs;
” Military Service
Veterans and National Service Stipends;
” Creation and
maintenance of state subsidized network of free public hospitals, free health
clinics and immunizations programs for the impoverished, and
” Price ceiling on
public utilities such as electricity and water,
” Regulation of
enterprises which provide other fundamental goods and services such as
commodity production.
This course of action will transform the Global
Afrikan citizen’s perception of the role of the government and of their role as
government officials and as citizens. It places the government into the role of
a servant, provider and protector of themselves as in a communal society the
people and the government are one and the same. These programs when implemented
will substantively reduce the cost of living for Global Afrikan people
especially the impoverished majority. For Afrikan citizens will no
longer be required to pay for certain life necessities, such as quality
education and optimal healthcare, which the majority cannot afford and
therefore do without thus dramatically increasing future impoverishment, disease
and death. [22]
In the final analysis:
“In the contemporary
world of affluence and poverty, where man's
major crime is murder
by privilege, REVOLUTION against the
established order is
the criterion of a living faith. ...Truly I say to you,
as you did it not to
one of the least of these, you did it not to me
(Matt. 25:45). The
murder of the Christ continues. Great societies build on dying men.” [James
Douglass][23]
Thus there is both an egalitarian and moral
rationale that underlies the necessity of Afrikan grassroots development.

institutional continuity between ancient and modern slavery existed than
generally has been suggested. While some scholars recognize that American
slavery had much in common with that of the Greek and Roman classical form,
many scholars prefer to accept the rumor of chattel slavery's disappearance
during Europe's Middle Ages. This acceptance tends to preclude any theory of
direct influence and linkages. However, the evidence of continuity remains.

[6] “At the beginning of the
sixteenth century, the Cagots of Navarre complained to the Pope, that they were
excluded from the fellowship of men, and accursed by the Church, because their
ancestors had given help to a certain Count Raymond of Toulouse in his revolt
against the Holy See. They entreated his holiness not to visit upon them the
sins of their fathers. The Pope issued a bull on the thirteenth of May, fifteen
hundred and fifteen — ordering them to be well-treated and to be admitted to
the same privileges as other men. He charged Don Juan de Santa Maria of
Pampeluna to see to the execution of this bull. But Don Juan was slow to help,
and the poor Spanish Cagots grew impatient, and resolved to try the secular
power. They accordingly applied to the Cortes of Navarre, and were opposed on a
variety of grounds. First, it was stated that their ancestors had had “nothing
to do with Raymond Count of Toulouse, or with any such knightly personage; that
they were in fact descendants of Gehazi, servant of Elisha (second book of
Kings, fifth chapter, twenty-seventh verse), who had been accursed by his
master for his fraud upon Naaman, and doomed, he and his descendants, to be
lepers for evermore. Name, Cagots or Gahets; Gahets, Gehazites. What can be
more clear? And if that is not enough, and you tell us that the Cagots are not
lepers now; we reply that there are two kinds of leprosy, one perceptible and
the other imperceptible, even to the person suffering from it. Besides, it is
the country talk, that where the Cagot treads, the grass withers, proving the
unnatural heat of his body. Many credible and trustworthy witnesses will also
tell you that, if a Cagot holds a freshly-gathered apple in his hand, it will
shrivel and wither up in an hour’s time as much as if it had been kept for a
whole winter in a dry room. They are born with tails; although the parents are
cunning enough to pinch them off immediately. Do you doubt this? If it is not
true, why do the children of the pure race delight in sewing on sheep’s tails
to the dress of any Cagot who is so absorbed in his work as not to perceive
them? And their bodily smell is so horrible and detestable that it shows that
they must be heretics of some vile and pernicious description, for do we not
read of the incense of good workers, and the fragrance of holiness?” See:

enslaved by the theft of her land and natural resources. A century ago black
men owned all but a morsel of South Africa. The Dutch and English came, and
to-day 1,250,000 whites own 264,000,000 acres, leaving only 21,000,000 acres
for 4,500,000 natives. Finally, to make assurance doubly sure, the Union of
South Africa has refused natives even the right to buy land. This
is a deliberate attempt to force the Negroes to work on farms and in mines and
kitchens for low wages. All over Africa has gone this shameless monopolizing of
land and natural resources to force poverty on the masses and reduce them to
the 'dumb-driven-cattle' stage of labor activity. . . But the brute
fact remains: the white man is ruling black Africa for the white man's gain,
and just as far as possible he is doing the same to colored races elsewhere.

“Poverty: A hellish state to
be in. It is no virtue. It is a crime.
To be poor, is to be hungry without possible hope of food; to be sick
without hope of medicine; to be tired and sleepy without a place to lay one's
head; to be naked without the hope of clothing; to be despised and comfortless.
To be poor is to be a fit subject for crime and hell. The hungry man steals bread and thereby
breaks the eighth commandment; by his state he breaks all the laws of God and
man and becomes an outcast. In thought and deed he covets his neighbor's goods;
comfortless as he is he seeks his neighbor's wife; to him there is no other
course but sin and death. That is the way of poverty. No one wants to be poor.”
