Self awareness and African Renaissance
The evolution in the way the scattered components of the African Entity define themselves or their fellows since transatlantic slavery is a clear indicator of the various steps done been climbed on the stairway of self awareness.
After the mention by some of us of an « african ancestry », the final move I think will be the identification of all as Africans. That is, I believe, the victory turn that is gonna fertilize the soil of the African Renaissance, and serve as unit of measurement for the African reconstruction: "we all are Africans, so let us rebuild together our wonderful Africa". I consider that turn to be maybe the great challenge that awaits the black people. Starting from that point, Africa will really become the top priorities for her children.
The conditions that can favor such a turn must be prepared. Just like African African American Summits in Abidjan, Côte-d'Ivoire (1991); Libreville, Gabon (1993); Dakar, Sénégal (1995); Harare, Zimbabwe (1997); Accra, Ghana (1999); Abuja, Nigeria (2003); Abuja, Nigeria (2006), summits, congresses, conferences must regularly be organized in order to foster that bringing together. The regularity and the magnitude of them events are fundamental for the reality of that bringing together of all the Africans of the world.
