I think one of the lessons we should have learnt, is that the divisions within African people a few centuries ago, allowed Europeans to kidnap and murder millions of our ancestors in their white new world. Africa knows the destructive nature of Europeans through colonialism in Africa; for many nations, this occurred for less than 100 years. Africans in the Americas were tsken.from there homeland and were treated like animals for generations. There cultural and political leaders have alwsys been proud of Africa, while acknowledging the importance of an African Identity. The important issues of an African identity the respect for African hertitage,our traditions and the legacies of our ancestors is something Africans everywhere on the Planet have to face. Ironically, looking at the start of this thread, the Africans who were stolen during enslavement, began defining the modern African identity during the 19th century in the Caribbean and America. Where they learnt through unimaginable suffering, the price of our disunity. Pardon my manners, Hello Nairaland! |
