Hoteph My Beloved Brother Runoko:

My brother first let me say that I admire and respect you for the dedication
you show toward revealing to the African, information about ourselves
through travel, an experience which is immeasurable and not to be compared
in the effort to educate.

Now let me address your last experience, which I am sure was not the first
and most surly will not be the last, in term of conditional Africa
experiences.

My dear brother when traveling with a group, without the benefit of close
screening and scrutiny, there is no way of determining what type of behavior
and attitude explosion you will encounter in certain circumstance.

As you know my dear brother, the heavy abundance of melanin we might carry
does not always reflect the ideal character and behavior of an African and
being African require more than the skin deep badge we reflect.

A True African of today must have gone through a self- Reformation, thus
qualifying us to become armed with the knowledge of our Black African self,
which in term will reload us with the mental capability to know of our True
past without interference from western and Arabic educational conditioning.

My brother when such a Soulful ( thoughtful )and Spiritual ( ethereal
feeling generating a balance and harmonic behavioral attitude toward and
about our Black Selves ) transformation take place within us, only then will
you be able to get the attitude and behavior from us that will not embarrass
you when encountered with trying conditions of our Brothers and Sisters
living in such a controlled abusive environment.

First of all my brother the behavior and attitude you so reveal happening
among some of your traveling guest, is an insult to you and more so to our
Ancient African Ancestors, not to mention the Sisters and Brothers who are
immediately experiencing such ignorant and foolish behavior.

No my brother it is not an air of arrogance and uppity that some of us
express at the first sign of discomfort, while being in an African
environment that is also abusive and oppressive but is on a more revealing
level than our own, it is totally ignorance.

Such a level has the tendency to cause some of us to feel as if we are in a
superior condition than our Sisters and Brothers in Africa and even places
in the Diaspora and as you know even right here in america communities, such
my brother is the evil of prejudice perception, which enslave the mind of
some African people and the horror of it is, we see it as being normal, how
we express our dissatisfaction at conditions that happen not to have the
shield that our own condition has.

As you know, freedom, independence and Justice does not come in degrees,
either we are or we are not and I have yet to see an African to have
anything to boast about in those regards, which mean, in reality we are all
suffering from the same malady, it just has been made to approach us in
different ways, creating environments that reflect the illusion of our real
condition as well as the true condition of our environment, which give cause
for one to turn up the nose at the other, not realizing that we all are in
the same pot of oppression.

Continue your good work my dear brother.
