/ #14 Re: NO knowledge of our Indegenous Languages, no real creativity, innovation, new inventions,& devt2012-11-06 10:00“If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.” ― Nelson Mandela The conditioning of our minds to assimilate, emulate and glorify that which degrades and see;s no value in our own culture tradition and heritage must be put to an end in Uganda period. This post colonial syndrome that the government is not ashamed to even debate must be fully diagnosed and acknowledged as a mental disorder that has dis empowered both the old and the the new generation, by uprooting their genuine truth and spirit of expression from their hearts to adopt to the submissive ideologies of this so called english culture which so many ugandans even those who have never step foot in Great Britain claim as their first language. We must educate and teach our children the truth of our land these indigenous languages are a apart of who we are and the spirit within them carry the truth which our ancestors spoke with, to see those in power debating or even plot to put an end to this indigenous wisdom in institutions definitely sums up why the majority of Ugandans especially upper class and middle class are confortable with raising kids in Uganda who pride them selves of not speaking any indigenous languages because of the colonial conditioning of their parents and their desire to fit in the so claimed prestigious class of the elites. Whats is so elite about educated fools who have no self pride and lack the communicating capacity to understand their own community. this foolishness must not be tolerated by any Ugandan - each tribe and all people desrver true liberating education designed to empower them to fully represent their land and their people with the encouragement to particpate in dertemining their destiny. This imposing foreign ideologies and using institution to validate them is a false and unacceptable approach. All Ugandans must awaken and claim their right to exercise, practice and preserve their indigenous expressions, and make sure that we demand all institution to acknowledge the importance and power in our demand, so that we can fully restore and reconnect our youth to this powerful uniqueness that is usually traded for no value due to the standards set by the colonial education that hasn't change for the past 50 year. - You can't love or have any self pride for you self you community or your nation if you have been conditioned to hate and not love your own language. No man or woman who knows him or her self can be a slave - but we have seen Uganda breed a slaving generation due to the western assimilation promotion by all institutions for these 50yrs of it's indipendence. This is a time in uganda's history for the awakening of it true sons and daughters. The desire and spiritual awakening to reconnect to our true sense of self - worth as we progress forward. Thank you to every one supporting this petition, and i want to thank those who have created the platform to bring the awareness and inspire us to act....Ugandans Wake UP!!!! . ....
