THE AFRIKAN IS THE CAUSE OF HIS OWN PROBLEMS Why do most Afrikans and Speakers regularly quote from white books and authors? Why do most Afrikans work tirelessly to salvage their economies from it woes and yet have to believe that their woes can only be solved by reading and quoting the philosophies of white economists? A lot of Afrikans think they are smart yet they cant detect the influx of 21st Century imperialism. They organises conferences, summits, events, lectures, symposia, seminars and what have you to create a society of change makers, yet they still imbibe_pollutes the minds of the participants with imperialist tendencies and approaches of white philosophies. I am a todder in this world of global white machinations and Afrikan antagonistic sabotages, yet I believe that the last stage of imperialism as critically observed by Osagyefo Kwame Nkrumah in his Neo-colonialism thoughts are the very evils betraying the Afrikans conscience and consciousness. There are many simple reasons for which I think the Afrikan isnt aware that he is the cause of his own woes. The Afrikan is still reading dogmas, doctrines, philosophies, thoughts, ideals and beliefs which are simply the whitemans hidden intents meant to thwart the potentials of todays critical Afrikan thinker. Did you ever thought of why the Great Malian Empire King Mansa Musa (I) was so powerful and rich? And did you know he is said to be the richest man ever to be recorded in history? Did you also know why Emperor Haile Sellasie is still hailed in esteem of high regard? And why he and his people were able to resist Italian invasion? Have you also thought of why Osagyefo Kwame Nkrumah is still regarded as the greatest idealist to ever emerge on the fronts of Afrika? And why his doctrines and philosophies are still relevant to the Afrikan in todays contemporary world? I feel I should weep for myself for being an Afrikan, still seeing the Afrikan turned into a puppet of neo-colonialism and a crowish of white imperialism. The answer to the aforementioned questions are as simple as this. They understood their own philosophies, ideals and principles which are securely embeded in the virtues and values of Afrika and the Afrikan. Ive shed tears and still finds it difficulty of not a default as to why the Afrikan is yet the cause of his own problems. The Afrikans thoughts, ideals, philosophies, and principles needs to change, or else the Afrikan will work and work and at the end it shall all be at the pleasing side of the white wind blowing under the shade of globalisation. These are a synopsis of the thoughts of a villaGe boy. #The_VillaGe_Thinker
