Bless-ed Love all I's,

Words of I&I Hola King Haile Selassie I, JAH RAS TAFARI!

There are those who claim that Afrikan unity is impossible, that the forces that pull us, some in this direction, others in that, are too strong to be overcome. Around us there is no lack of doubt and pessimism, no absence of critics and criticism. These speak of Afrika, of Afrika's future and of her position in the twentieth century in speulchral tones. They predict dissension and disintegration among Afrikans and internecine strife and chaols on our continent. Let us CONFOUND these and by OUR DEEDS, DISPERSE them in CONFUSION. There are others whose HOPES for Afrika are BRIGHT, who stand with faces UPTURNED in wonder and AWE at the creation of a new and happier life, who have DEDICATED themselves to its realization and are spurred on by the EXAMPLE of their brothers to whom they owe the achievement of Afrika's past. LET US REWARD their trust and MERIT their approval.
The road of Afrikan Unity is already lines with landmarks. The last years are crowded with meetings, with conferences, with declarations and pronouncements. Regional organizations have been established. Local groupings based on common interest, backgrounds and traditions have been created.
But through all that has been said and written and done in these years, there runs a COMMON THEME. UNITY is the ACCEPTED GOAL. We argue about means; we discuss alternative paths to the same objective: we engage in debates about techniques and tactics: but when semantics are stripped away, THERE IS LITTLE ARGUMENT AMONG US. We are determined to create a UNION OF AFRIKANS. In a very real sese, our continent is unmade; IT STILL AWAITS ITS CREATION AND ITS CREATORS. It is OUR DUTY AND PRIVILEGE to rouse the slumbering giant of Afrika, NOT TO THE NATIONALISM OF EUROPE of the nineteeth century, NOT to regional consciousness, BUT TO THE VISION OF A SINGLE AFRIKAN BROTHERHOOD bending its UNITED effors toward the achievement of A GREATER AND NOBLER GOAL.
- HAILE SELASSIE I

I chose this speech in light of all the disunity I sight goin on... Is this what I&I HOLA CREATOR would like to sight? In I opinion all the fussin and deleting and removal of certain ones and ones would bring sadness to I&I HOLA KING HAILE SELASSIE Ist! It shouldnt get personal/emotional. I and I must look to the GREATER GOOD of INITY among I Idren and Sistren. Many have nuff knowlege and teachings to share - and will no longer be able to do so on this forum... I am sad to see this. I hope all will look within themselves and CHOSE the INITY that is NECESSARY in this REVOLUTION!

FORIVAH PRAIZIN THE HOLA ONE OF IRATION, SELASSIE IHYH, JAAAH RAS TAFARI!
SELAH AND SELAH!

ISES!
