Pali nthawi zina m'mbiri yonse ya anthu pamene kunyada ndi kudzikuza zapita mopambanitsa. Ndikofunikira kukhala ndi anthu omwe amatsutsana ndi njere. Kukana zomwe zili quo sikutanthauza kupanduka. Si zachiwawa m'chilengedwe. Ndi kukonzanso. Kusintha komwe kumayang'ana patsogolo pamapindikira, mosiyana ndi kutsatira.

 

Ndinapanga zisankho zambiri ndi chiwonetserochi. Chimodzi mwa izo, ndikuyang'ana kwambiri chizindikiro choyambirira cha omwe ali ndi lingaliro. Mkati mwa cholinga chimenecho, muli kuwala. Mu mawonekedwe enieni, mndandanda wamitundu yosiyanasiyana. Lingaliro la mtundu limadalira kwathunthu mtundu womwe suwonetsa m'diso lanu.

 

Mitundu yomwe mlengi amasankha imakhudzana kwambiri ndi kujambula chithunzi cha kukongola komwe diso lanu limawona. Miyezo yamitundu ikuwonetsanso nkhope zosiyanasiyana zomwe tiyenera kuvala kuti tipulumuke Nyumba Yopenga ya dziko lino mokhudzana ndi Intercontinental Descendants of The Prisoners of the Slaving Wars: Enslaved West & Central Africans of the Transatlantic Slave Trade. Ndinasankha zofiira, zobiriwira, ndi zachikasu kuti ndituluke mumdima wosadziwika. Chofiira choyimira chilakolako cha kusintha. Green kuimira ndalama zofunika kusintha. Yellow akuyimira mphamvu zofunikira kuti apitirize nkhondoyi. Kuphatikizika kwamitundu kumayimiridwanso mu African Diaspora, chiwonetsero chomaliza chokana momwe zinthu ziliri. Mwachindunji, kuphatikizika kwamitundu komwe kumalimbikitsidwa ndi Rastafarianism, chipembedzo chochokera ku lingaliro la kukana momwe zinthu ziliri.
