Africans in Diaspora have had to develop an African Conciousness.

Hundreds of different African peoples have had to learn to live and fight together. Being Africanor Pan African (United African Thinking) was something formed in Diaspora.


The Yoruba, Ashanti, Ewe etcdid not have to unite, and to a large degree still don't, to make political gains.

On entry into the Diaspora, they realised they didnot havesuch luxury of choice.

Africans in Diaspora always come together. This fact of history is basic and not understood by many.


As for Zealousness, if more Africans in Diaspora had it, we wouldn't be in the position we are today.



History is a people's memory, and without a memory, man is demoted to the lower animals
