OUR AFRIKASKIN UNDER ATTACK
OUR AFRIKASKIN UNDER ATTACK or HOW TODAY'S CONT/DIASPORA AFRIKAWOMEN HAVE BEEN PROGRAMMED TO KILL OR BLEACH THEIR AFRIKASKIN WITH CHEMICALS ,By (c) 2012 by Prof. Afrikadzata Deku, Docteur d'Etat; Doctorat d'Etat (PhD); AFRIKALION@AOL.COM;
Today, in our today's Foreignized Continental Afrika, we notice a growing tendency on the part of some of “ educated” Africans, especially our “ Ladies “ to change their Continental Afrikan skin into " the White Woman's Skin they have been programmed to see, accept, honor and wish for as better than and superior to her AfrikaSkin they think is inferior the White woman's skin they have now become addicted to, enslaved by and dependent on .
So all kinds of creams now exist in every city and capital in Continental Afrika with constant advertisements urging our today's Afrikan Women to make, transform , turn their Natural AfrikaSkin Color , "lighter"/"fairer" or "whiter."
Deep down in the heart of every Westernized Afrikan Woman today, lies the tragedy in her belief in the slave/colonial lies that having "white" skin is better than having a Continental AfrikaSkin that kept us, the AfrikaRace or People ALIVE , HEALTHY AND HAPPY FOR THREE MILLION YEARS AND WITHOUT WHICH WE WOULD NOT HAVE TODAY'S Foreign OR JEWISH OR ARAB SKIN COLORS TO PREFER AND ADORE OVER OUR OWN AFRIKASKIN COLOR THAT GAVE BIRTH TO THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE .
They see "white" skins as a passport to a better life, better world and better way of doing things.
That is why up till now, the majority of the Educated Afrikan Elite Women fear, respect and hold in high esteem the "white" people and their skin.
For example, let a "white" Man and an Afrikan visit a Post Office or a Bank in any part of today's Continental Afrika for service.
Almost incidentally and unconsciously , the person with the white skin will be served first before the person with the Afrikan skin.
Most of our "educated" ladies still consider it secretly a great honor and privilege to have a "white" person as a lover, husband or father of her children.
And children or people with fairer skin in Afrika today - whether naturally or by "white" contacts still consider themselves secretly superior to their Afrikan brothers and sisters because of their “ White” skins.
Especially in all the Westernized part of Continental Afrika and Islands, Continental Afrikans with fairer skin are the most favored by the "white" world and "puppets" in Continental Afrika for higher paying jobs, promotions and to serve as spokesperson for their White controlled Companies, Govts etc
They are also, the most Western-educated, most assimilated, most pro-Western and thus became the "natural heirs" of the slave , colonial and neo-colonial powers in Continental Afrika at the time of independence.
That is why in most of our post-colonial Continental Afrika, most of the key positions of power and authority went to the hands of coastal dwellers Africans who were the first Afrikans to be exposed to the Foreigners and most of whom became naturally more pro-Foreign or Foreignized or Educated and trained the Foreign Ways instead of the AFRIKAWAY and as such were quick to replace, take their places in their slave/colonial dungeons they proudly call “ Castle or Seat of Govt” after their Foreign Creators and Masters were physically expelled from the Continent and its Islands during the War and Fight for Afrikan Independence WITHIN AND NOT OUTSIDE THE COLONIAL BOUNDARIES that made and continue to make a MOCKERY OF ALL THOSE FEW BUT BRAVE AFRIKAFREEDOM FIGHTERS WHO DIED THINKING THEY WERE REALLY FIGHTING AND DYING FROM A TRUE CONTINENTAL AFRIKAN INDEPENDENCE AND FREEDOM FROM ALL FORMS OF VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE FOREIGN DOMINATION, CONTROL AND EXPLOITATION.
This deliberate division of Continental Afrikans into "black" and "white" skin is done to keep them fighting or hating each other and thus weakens their collective unity and power to withstand foreign invaders and exploiters.
This is all due to the fact that part of today's' growing AfrikaSkin Crisis facing or plaguing or destroying or weakening our today's Continental/Diaspora Afrikan World and People lies in the confusion brought about by the lie that one's skin color is better and superior to the other.
This in itself will not have been any tragedy for Continental Afrikans if some of our fair or lighter-skinned Continental Afrikans do not accept this lie as the truth to apply to the letter.
As far as Continental Afrikan colonial masters and their present inheritors are concerned, there is something basically wrong with our Continental Afrikan Skin.
To them it is "ugly," "uncouth," "unpolished," and "anti-modern."
Continental Afrikan skin, they told us is a curse, that is why they call it "black, “, the color of misfortune, the devil, evil etc for us to avoid at all cost.
It will not take us anywhere. If anything, they told us, our Continental Afrikan skin can only lead us to doom.
The more we hold on to it, the less successful we shall be come in their "white" world.
Our Natural AfrikaSkin, as far as they are concerned, will close more success doors for us than it will open them.
So, like the obedient and faithful parrot students that they are , some Continental Afrikans in "modern" Continental Afrika began to believe and believe with all their hearts that their precious sacred Natural AfrikaSkin which is the Oldest Human Skin on earth and Mother of all today's Human Skins is no more their friend but enemy to get rid of at all cost.
And the more they try to reject their precious, one and only AfrikaSkin, hate it, prefer other skins to it , bleach it or blame it as the source of all our woes in the world today, the more ridiculous they become to themselves and others.
The more these Westernized Afrikan ladies and women use deadly creams to change their Continental Afrikan skin into "white", the more they expose themselves to all kinds of illnesses that our Continental Afrikan skin has been specifically designed to protect us against.
The more dissatisfied they are with their innocent Continental Afrikan skin, the more eager and determined they become in blaming their skin as the source of all their today's woes as a people.
And the more committed they become to the replacement of their Continental Afrikan skin with "white" skin, the more their AfrikaSkin laughs at them.
And the more our Westernized ladies and women reject their AfrikaSkin in favor of the White man's skin, the more frustrated they become.
All because no matter what they do to their Continental Afrikan skin, it can never be anything but Continental Afrikan.
In their frustration , they call it all the negative names they can think of but it can never be dissolved into someone else's skin color, no matter how hard, how long they try to de-Afrikanize , Westernize, bleach or turned it into what it is not and can never be to their chagrin .
This explains why our Westernized ladies and women with more and more bleached skin refuse to see, recognize or admit the danger of torturing oneself by trying to change one's skin into something else.
While our Westernized or Foreignized Africans with a C are busy selling themselves to the highest bidder in their "white" world, and luckily for us, the majority of our Traditional Continental Afrikans have remained faithful to their Continental Afrikan World, Root, Identity , Values. And Skin .
In ancient Continental Afrika as well as pre-colonial Continental Afrika these brave Continental Afrikans have treasured everything Continental Afrikan including their valuable Continental Afrikan skin.
Like all other proud groups of the Human Family, these proud children of Mother Continental Afrika have kept alive the virginity, the youthfulness and the nobleness of our Continental Afrikan Skin.
And as long as they live throughout Continental Afrika, the struggle to accept, acknowledge, love, respect and honor our Continental AfrikaSkin will continue in other parts of Continental Afrika until victory is won in this domain too.
When we talk of total Continental Afrikan Liberation, Empowerment and Happiness for all, it means in every part of our Continental AFRIKAWAY of doing and being.
