Another
Marriage in Zion
October 3, 2011
 Barely
over my own honeymoon, I had the opportunity to witness the marriage
of my brethren, Kofi El Shabaz, a fellow repatriate, also born
Brooklyn, passed through Atlanta and now at home in Ghana. He too
was blessed with an Empress born in the land of our ancestors. Once
again the bond was fortified and years of separation reduced to
nothing, as the bride and groom, each representing 1 half of the
same people, came together for a marriage made in Zion.
Just as the alignment of the
stars is inevitable, likewise the reuniting of kindred souls,
separated before birth, is bound to be. All manner of deception was
crafted to insure our division, but nothing could keep us apart. No
wire fence could stop our movements, nor could babylon’s trappings
steal our heart. Our love remained for Africa alone, and not til
Africa is completely restored will we rest for a while. Thus we
embrace the work of family, community and nation building, as it is
the surest and simplest path towards unifying, strengthening and
empowering Africa and her children.
One heart, one aim, one
destiny. One Africa!
