As Malcolm X said, You can t hate the roots of a tree, and not hate the tree. You can t hate your origin and not end up hating yourself. You can t hate Africa and not hate yourself. And so, it is also the case that as you know more about yourself, then you begin to love yourself. As we learn more about our people, then we learn to love our people.
Self knowledge is a key to self love.
Please do not expect anyone to undertake this re-educational process for you. As John Henrik Clarke said, powerful people cannot afford to educate the people that they oppress, because once you are truly educated, you will not ask for power. You ll take it. So my first challenge to you is to continue your education for the remainder of your lives. Focus on an education that teaches an appreciation of what Africa has contributed and continues to contribute to the world.
