The after slavery: the two into one
A river being crossed by the dead is a recurrent theme
in many african cultures; a river crossing that leads to a new land, the one of
the ancestors. The analogy with millions of chained Africans crossing of the ole
Atlantic, piled up inside holds of boats,
stolen away to an alien land, is talking to us.
We therefore can reread the entire transatlantic slavery as a kind of
true spiritual death of Africa. The part
stolen to the motherland can be considered living in a kind of after-life. Them
in the motherland and them in exile would then be living in two
“parallel-worlds ”, so that the issue here would be to make the two
mirror-worlds to merge in order to create some kind of “absolute energy” that
in priority will be used for the African or Panafrican Reconstruction, not
excluding its eventual effects on the whole world. I do think that merging of
them two into one unique Power, that recovered Unity would somehow be
comparable to the merging of a material world and a spiritual world, which
means an incredible energy that would no doubt reposition Africa
as the center of the world. If we add to that the fact that Africa
actually is the first world, the source world, the origin of humanity, then the
jointure of them two “image-halves” would definitely imply the emergence of a
new world, a world that would be the heartbeat of the planet. That new world
would be the oneness of the world Africa. This
is my vision.
