Afrika Speaks with Alkebu-Lan on Galaxy Radio 27/07/20 – What kind of future do our young people want to see? Pt. 2

July 27, 2020 Alkebu-Lan

In his classic text The Wrteched of the Earth, Franz Fanon extolled the liberation maxim::

“Each generation must, out of relative obscurity, discover its mission, fulfil it, or betray it” (1)

Thus we speak to those responsible for framing and contextualising that mission – the parents/practitioners; as well those charged with its fulfilment – the children.

(1) Franz Fanon (1985) The Wrteched of the Earth, Penguin. p. 166

We ask the question:

What kind of future do our young people want to see? Pt. 2

1) What do we see as  our “mission”?

2) Can our children “fulfil their mission” if their Elders haven’t articulated it Have you attended any?

3) What will be the cost to our children for betraying the mission?
