PAN-AFRIKANISM VS TERRORISM, ISLAMIZATION, AND NEO-COLONIALISM
I want to make it clear that this book is not an attack on anyone's personal choice of religion. In fact, I encourage that we learn to respect the diversity of religions in the world. This book does, however, address the wars, bloodshed, and slavery caused by religions and colonials. This book is a challenge for us all to speak out against wars in Afrika and throughout the world. While the contents of the following essays are controversial, we cannot ignore the challenge. My views have evolved over the years and some content of the following essays may not fully reflect all of my new ground. As a result, here I state that it is wrong to attack anyone's personal religion. It is likewise wrong to ignore atrocities and wars done in the name of religion or at the expense of innocent people. We all have an obligation to speak up. This book is my voice.
As long as the Afrikan continent is not unified, there will be wars, terrorism, bloodshed, resource theft, enslavement, rape, and so many other tragedies that the most vulnerable and poor will suffer indiscriminately of age and gender. One of the recent tragedies in horrific events to innocent people in Afrika has been the kidnap and forced sexual slavery of the Chibok girls by Boko Haram. Many global news and political analysts point to the origins of Boko Haram with the destabilization of Libya by the US. While Boko Haram did benefit with military hardware from the fall of Gaddafi's Libya, the regional problems that allowed this threat to spread are the same throughout the continent. The nations have historically suffered from a lack of Pan-Afrikanism. Modern Islamic terrorism from Boko Haram is no different than the Black Arab slave traders of centuries past.
This short book covers a range of regions and historical eras, but the problems are all the same. Today it is Boko Haram; tomorrow it will be another threat to Afrikan safety and sovereignty. Before the horrors unleashed by Boko Haram, we saw the massive genocides in the Congo, Rwanda, Sudan, Angola, and other countries. The LRA of Joseph Kony brought horrors to the regions in and around Uganda and still operates to this day. These patterns of atrocities will only continue until Afrika finds unity through militaries, economies, medical strategies, politics, education of the poor, and others means.
When I speak of Pan-Afrikanism, it refers in the context of this book to the military unification of a continental force army that will exercise strategic deployment locations at certain regions throughout the continent to prevent pillage, plunder, and genocide of nations. Pan-Afrikanism, however, is also defined in the various other areas of economics, politics, education, culture, and more. Of great significance is the fact that when speaking of Pan-Afrikanism, it must be understood that we are also speaking of a global concept.
The following are a collection of selected essays related to the topic. The reader will note that some terminology of the same historical places and persons may differ from essay to essay. The writings were done, in some cases, spanning many years between them.
