As a Nigerian-Afrikan I want to open myself up to you guys and state the problem as I have studied it and as many American Afrikan sisters and brothers have studied it, and this is what is never taught in schools, because schools are not meant to help us as a race. I will use the term American Afrikan because that is what you are. I am a Nigerian Afrikan. The problem is the schools do not teach men how to be men. They do not teach us that Afrikan women are worth anything, that they have ever accomplished anything. They do not teach us that we are Afrikan men, that we have ever been anything, and they do not teach us that we ARE Afrikan people or what it takes to have an Afrikan family. That we used to be responsible for entire kingdoms, they do not teach us how we did it or how we are supposed to do it again. So how is this man supposed to be a man? You can tell that he is about to cry because HE doesnt have a father himself. As a person who grew up with a father and who met my grandfather in Nigeria, I can tell that he is seeking manhood by hopping from woman to woman. Did anyone ever recognize that its a cycle? The only answer is Afrikan centered education and owning jobs and relying on other Afrikan people. There are close to a billion of us if not more, that if we address each other as American Afrikans Nigerian Afrikans and so on, if we address each other in a systematic way designed for us and by us to relate to one another directly, then we will figure out these money problems these family problems and hold each other responsible through cultural trade. Lets be clear. This man has no father in his life, and even if he did it is not an Afrikan centered father or community backing his father and his mother up. American-Afrikans cannot keep pointing pointing the finger at one dad and then at one mom at a time. The schools will not teach Afrikan people this but they have been doing it for 400 years. The only answer is for every self-identifying Afrikan woman and man to put down their things and come together systematically come up with solutions to the culture, where as AFRIKAN people, we build dating and marriage rituals for the American Afrikan family. If only 2 parents from Bermuda or Tallahassee show up to help tell us what needs to be done, so be it. But the American Afrikan family will be broke as long as we keep looking for non-Afrikan jobs and education. All our American-Afrikan scholars that they keep out of school tell us this. The most healing thing we can do is this. Come together as an international Afrikan family and fix this for future generations. Peace love and blessings. -Confidence Chizoro Ehieze-Okeke, #Sankofanomics https://facebook/pages/Pan-Afrikan-PsychoSemantic-Programming/328217077338238?ref=hl
