The Diginity of Women
International Women’s Day - March 8, 2020
Once again we bear witness to one of the many colonial conspiracies. Our focus now is on an event which has become particularly important for women over the past three decades, especially the “modern” woman. In the name of freedom and human rights, we are still trying to twist the natural order of things. The imagination of a society based on social laws and policies continues to misguide our leaders and intellectuals, in their arrogance, to do what nature did not. The United Nations (which really means the United States, France, England, etc.) think they have conquered the entire world to the point where they dare to impose their vision and ambitions upon traditional societies regardless of their location. It is within this context that the month of March was selected by world leaders for the celebration of International Women’s Day. Why an international Women’s Day? Who benefits from celebrating this day?
The international Day of Women’s Rights is celebrated every year on March 8th. It has its origins in the women’s demonstrations in the early twentieth century in Europe and the United States, where women were demanding equal rights, better working conditions and the right to vote. In 1977, it was formalised by the United Nations and each country in the world was invited to celebrate a day for women’s rights.
On the occasion of International Women’s Day in 2012, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) is calling for new measures to help women with missing loved ones, to enable them to regain dignity and hope. People who disappear in an armed conflict are overwhelmingly men. Beyond the anguish in which the mothers, wives and other female family members live because they do not know what happened to their husband, their son or another family member, women and girls who are in this situation often face overwhelming practical difficulties. The ICRC reaffirms that the parties of a conflict are responsible for identifying the missing people and informing their families. There is no doubt that this theme is targeting the African woman and women of poor countries.
If we understand that the actions of the Red Cross are funded directly from the treasury of the UN, we will be led to conclude that the politicking of the West (or the powerful countries of the world) is still gaining ground and as usual, using different disguises to advance its cause. Master Naba, in his writings asserted that, “The suspected killer of a member of your family will always ensure that he is seen as your saviour.” After sending their killing machines into African countries to satisfy their needs and interests, here they come presenting themselves in the image of a benefactor like Santa Claus! Will the West always remain sadistic and cruel to poor countries or will it one day give up its evil deeds? The arms of the West will continue to make widows and orphans throughout the world every day, as countless examples in Africa continue to prove, and yet they have the audacity to tell us about women’s rights issues such as the one presented this year.
What is brilliantly ingenious on the part of the UN and its allies (such as the Red Cross) is that they have once again established their principle of divide and conquer, just like in modern, Western societies, where women are standing in the shoes of the man, the UN is indirectly establishing power struggles between couples, resulting in countless cases of divorce. The woman has been denaturalised and conditioned to want to be what nature did not intend while the man finds himself engulfed in a whirlwind of laws, regulations and sociopolitical philosophy that made him the puppet or complacent “yes man” of the household. This article does not condemn the fact that the modern institutions of our day have granted a whole day for the modern woman to lobby for her aspirations and rights after they have suffered a thorough brainwashing at the hand of these same institutions which are also supporting these women’s political movements.
It’s important to note that the stability of the traditional family is based on the fact that men and women have clearly defined roles within the family structure and society. These roles are based on the natural differences between genders which make women better suited for caring for the children and tending to the home. This does not mean that either role is more important or respectable. It is the modern society that has sabotaged the family unit by convincing the woman that her role within the family is demeaning. If an analysis of the results is any indication, this is not done with the intention of improving the lives of women but only to destabilise the family unit to make each individual vulnerable to manipulation.
On the occasion of International Women’s Day in 2012, the International Committee of the Red Cross called on countries and other organisations not to relax in their efforts to prevent rape and other forms of sexual violence each year, which affect the lives and dignity of countless women in conflict zones around the world. Why is the ICRC posturing as a vulture in these countries where its donors are the ones dumping tons of weapons of mass destruction? Would it not be better for the ICRC to raise awareness in these so-called powerful countries and the UN about the fact that war itself in all its manifestations remains a disadvantage for women.
As Africa has always been the land of men and women too stubborn to be “civilised,” it is the prerogative of the modern system and its institutions to bring civilisation to Africa. March 8 turns out to be a very convenient event that forces traditional men to pervert themselves just for the pleasure of women and these institutions that are supposed to be “defenders of women”. The system that controls the Western societies has understood and knows that once the home is destabilised, whether by the man or the woman, everyone will be under control and only the laws established by the leaders will rule. Women, have you asked for a moment the question of who benefits from these claims of rights and equalities? Of course not ... because all conspiracies behind these claims are to put the woman in conflict with the man without re- vealing the destruction this conflict brings to the entire family.
Regarding the role of a woman or how a woman should be treated in society, Africa, at least for once, should be the giver of lessons! It’s important to present Africa’s history, its deep culture, traditions that were removed if not prohibited by the West. We have a saying: “When you hate your neighbours, it is not the chicks in his barn that you must attack ...” Our tendency to attack the chicks instead of the neighbour is precisely a sign of weakness in our culture as black people.
Indeed, people ask why the dowry that was paid by the woman in the West has always been paid by the man in Africa? What is the deeper meaning of this human institution? How would they know of the history of black people, long before modern times, of our loving parity, when the woman was in many ways the equal of man? Whether Creator Goddess, Pharaoh holding the reins of power, civil servant, musician, daughter of a good family or woman of the people, the black woman has always held all positions in society since times immemorial. Seductive and flirtatious, loving mother and faithful wife, suffering or laughing loudly, she puts her life on stage in the wall carvings, paintings and sculptures that populate our dreams of the continent today.
It is also interesting to look beyond the missions of these international organisations and see how, before the existence of these institutions, each society has dealt with this issue of women. Then of course we must start from the facts, the real history of each human society. We must scrutinise and understand how women are viewed in the collective mentality of each society. This humanitarian work that stubbornly refuses the traditional wisdom of Africa is the real tragedy affecting Africa in all areas, not just in any particular area!
By continuing in the same vein as the “International Community”, which in fact includes only the power nations of the world, that is, Europe and the USA, Meritah [Africa] wastes an enormous amount of time, since certain issues are fundamental to a society and cannot be put on hold or in parentheses for any reason whatsoever. Here, the parentheses, far from being multiplicative as in mathematics, are truly nihilistic of human values!
Whether we know it or not, Meritah [Africa] is the only continent that positioned the woman principally as mother, unlike the modern societies who confined her to the gynaeceum (which was unknown on our continent), or who considered her as the courtesan, valuable for sex and mostly responsible for fulfilling the erotic fantasies of men!
Therefore, we feel like crying when we see all the foolishness that our intellectuals serve us to break down a door that was not only already open, but also and especially, led to a treatment of women that is much more humane for women. It’s tragic that we serve those who have never been grateful students of Africa.
In other words, the West should clearly see that the black woman has no reason to envy the modern woman, neither her way of living, the values that define her, her social status or anything else. Does the white man imagine for us an African society similar to western society or does he simply want to contaminate other peoples with the same psychological epidemics of mounting divorce rates, homosexuality and suicides, that undermine the so-called “civilised societies”?
“It’s the one who slept with an empty stomach that gets trapped in the early morning.” The return to the source is imminent, we must respect the laws of nature in order to reinstate family values that belong to us and not those of people without culture.
