2014: A Year to Dare Africa

A bright future lies ahead
for the bring ;inds!
Africa, this beautiful continent, mother of civilisations awakes. Not that she fell asleep on her own will, no, but through a drowsiness induced by the morphines and sedatives of slavery, colonisation and organised miseducation. Now, here she wakes up in full force, shaking the centuries of indoctrination that were intended to make her forget her greatness. And she lets her black natural hair glitter in the morning sun.

Today, aware of her heritage, and without anger, Africa proclaims Afrocentrism as a new way for her children to reach globalisation, Afrocentrism as an arrow pointing at the rainbow sky shown by her ancestors, the likes of Nelson Mandela, now gone to Pemba, a new way for African cultures to shine again.
