25TH May- Day of Africa is also a warning for economic justice
In 1963 started formally the African League, with the aim to boost the development of the continent.
From then on every year the 25thMay is celebrated all over the world as Africa Day, which in 2020 is so difficult , takes a universal symbolic connotation.
AFRICA , THE CONTINENT THAT IS SO POOR
OF WHICH WE CANNOT DO WITHOUT.
There exists at the National Museum of the Democratic Republic of Congo, the story of a legend. The site refers to the statues Niksi. When a person took possession of a thing that belongs to another person with carelessness or by chance, the latter went to a Nganga, who will put knives in the statues Nikisi . Immediately the mad thief will feel it. He shouts : “Why? I do not understand.” Driven by this unknown pain, of which he did not know the cause, he will go to his own Nganga, the spirit man. This man than indicated to this person that his pain came from his theft that he committed whether consciously or not. And so the object at last is restored to its proper owner. (….). This legend teaches us that the pain and the consequences will inevitably pass from those who suffer from them to those who commit them, even if involuntarily. The responsibility and justice will come to pass when we live the Interdependence of each other.
