This talk occurred at Malcolm X College on December 27, 2012 at the City-Wide Kwanzaa Celebration. The first two minutes are missing, but this is the bulk of what I shared. The main points that are missing are that Kujichagulia is ultimately about our capacity to define reality, not through words, but through the arduous work of social transformation. I also stated that Baba Hannibal incessantly cautioned us against imbibing the opiate of self-deception, not deluding ourselves into thinking that belief was sufficient when action is the ultimate expression of our ideals. Lastly, I used Amenemhat's Weheme Mesu in ancient Kemet (Egypt) and the struggles of the African Maroons in the Western Hemisphere as models of Kujichagulia--Africans defining their own reality. — at Malcolm X College.
