And now they want to convince people the outfit was “symbolic,” that it was some deep revolutionary statement, a Patrice Lumumba inspiration… some bold “FUCK YOU ” to the colonizer.
Well then, clearly the rest of us must be too dumb to understand it.
Because the correlation between “presence is not submission,” Patrice Lumumba, and dancing in front of the same systems that continue to economically extort Africa is what many of us are struggling to understand.
And just so we are clear, during Congo’s independence struggle, Patrice Lumumba did not stutter around colonizers, dance for them, wine and dine with them while calling it strategy.
He stood in front of the world, in front of the Belgian King himself, and openly condemned colonialism for what it was.
Lumumba spoke about the humiliation, exploitation, land theft, forced labour, racism and violence Congolese people had suffered under Belgian rule. He reminded the world that Congo’s independence was not a gift from Belgium, but a fight won through sacrifice, resistance and blood.
That is what defiance looked like🚶🏿♀️
