Do you know what it is?
We who were raised in the west and emersed in eurocentric culture from our earliest memory have come to reject the concept of a eurocentric mindset. We want to embrace Mother Africa. But do we know what that means on a day to day practical level? How can we strive to become something unless we have a clear understanding of the nature of what we are striving to become?
Family, I want to challenge each of you to discover three aspects of a truly Afrocentric mind that clearly distinguishes it from a eurocentric mind.
It's not enough to merely reject Europe and embrace a romanticized image of Africa. This leaves us in an identification void which the mediacapitalist network will fill with what looks like Africa but is really Europe dipped in chocolate.
Once you discover the difference ask yourself are you there yet? Are you on your way? Are you aware of and willing to make the sacrifices necessary for having an afrocentric mind in a eurocentric world?
