Abstract

Neither the burden of our tragic memory nor the secular illusions of History and its many fetishes can hold back human consciousness from rediscovering peace and lucidity. The assiduous exercise of intelligence, heart and will is the absolute condition for the individual and collective freedom of our peoples. The concept of Afroplanetarianism that I am proposing reveals a simple intuition: by exercising one's intelligence every day, people in Africa and the rest of the world will rediscover the fundamental resources of Life and Reality.
