Historically, the term "Promised Land" has been associated with different religious and cultural narratives, most notably in the biblical context as the land of Canaan promised to the Israelites. However, in a broader and more contemporary sense, the concept can be understood as an ideal or desired place that offers fulfillment, opportunity, or a better life.
Taking Africa in context, Africa and Africans must free themselves from the chock hold of colonization, we can have a better life and more opportunities if we decolonize. PLO Lumumba explains why decolonization is important and what promises the promised land has on us if we are totally decolonized.
In this episode of LUMUMBA EXPLAIN, we discuss the topic of de-colonization.
In this episode, we explore the concept of de-colonization and discuss its importance in the context of the current political situation in Africa. We also look at the different ways in which de-colonization can be achieved, and discuss the challenges and obstacles that lie ahead.
If you're interested in the current political situation in Africa, or want to learn more about de-colonization, then make sure to watch this episode!

I am in South Africa and I cannot sleep without watching any of these videos where Prof. takes us through any educational topic(s).
Im pleased to meet a South African here...im from South Africa myself
I have started including the professor in my daily prayers. His message is incredibly timely, righteous, inspiring, and powerful. That means there are those powerful people across the planet who are afraid and see it as dangerous.
I believe this is not a matter of prayer, we’ve been praying for a very longtime. Let us make cars and weapons of mass destruction like he said, let’s come together and present our arsenal to the world
Same here…
He is toeing the path of great men like Franzi Fanon, Walter Rodney, etc
Prof. Lumumba is so inspirational that I'm a self-acclaimed protegee of him. Wish to meet him one of these days. His passion for Africa is top-notch.
OH MAN... HIS WISDOM, VISION, KNOWLEDGE ABOUT AFRICA AND WORLD IS SOMETHING ELSE... HE IS JUST THE BEST
I signed up to Lumumba University. Going to listen to all his speeches!
Amazing. Thank you Mr. Lumumba for nurturing the current generation
Yes is true p.l.o Lumumba we have to de- colonized our self,
Because in
Numbers 14:4 So they said to one another, "Let us appoint a leader and return to Egypt."
Same Israel people didn't de- colonized there self's that is why they wanted to go back to Egypt to be re-enslaved.
Thank you very much for your words God bless you....
I went to one of his speaks in Africa and forever I mean forever change my thinking about my people in 2021
Im very impressed by how easily he quotes from notable people who have contributed to Africa's independence and development. Respect will only after attaining nuclear power - that is the struggle of Iran😮
What I like about Prof Lumumba is that he admits that he might be doing things that benefit the white European hegemony but he's willing to repent with time because he's now aware of everything that's going on. Other Africans are aware of some things but they bury them on the ground and continue their journeys of working full time with the former colonisers. Decolonisation is a work in progress and it is our African youths and teenagers who will complete the whole journey to de-colonisation and total freedom, and so therefore, we as the older generation we are planting the seeds because the young generation is our future who will achieve the ideals of African Unity or Pan- Africanism. EFF the youth/teenager organisation in South Africa is setting an example for all young generations in Africa to do the same...this is just my opinion. Thanks.
I wish I had him as a professor when I was in university ...
Thank you, Professor, for educating us and sharing your wisdom with us.
Every time l hear you father l never come out same your impact is huge stay long and your voice shall live foever
PLO Lumumba thank you Sir we appreciate the wisdom you have I wonder why our leaders are so lost from reality that benefit Africa. It’s time we Unite to realise our full potential as Kwame Nkuruma once said.
I AM WITH YOU MY DEAR BROTHER LUMUMBA, DON'T STOP SAYING THE TRUTH..
Great video. We must decolonize. To do this we have to stop romanticizing colonialism. Too many of us loved that era and have a sense of pride in it.
That's why im trying to speak Swahili. I love us and when come home I speak Swahili because it important and close to my heart
This is a great man❤!!!!
I couldn’t agree more that since colonization was a mental process, it will take time for decolonization to happen. It’s sad to watch African shy away from teaching their children African languages; insisting on them speaking foreign languages thinking that it makes them superior. Sad indeed.
African wisdom at its best!
Thank you for this great knowledge and wisdom
Our spirituality is controlled by foreigners too
Thank you,, Professor Lumumba
We might have taken political power from the colonizers, but we are still colonized economically, and the most important thing for a country to have control of is the economy.
I just love this Man!
Proff. is Oozing Wisdom and Vision.
Ecellent analysis Po
ABSOLUTELY CORRECT
Word.
It's Painful to see how Africans are mistreated in the Diaspora, it pains my soul to see this. No black man out there will truly be Respected until African joins the ranks of Top superiority Economically, Socially through Unity of one Nation and Politically as well.
truer words
I highly appreciate this topic, however I would like to suggest that a presentation be prepared solely on how to De- colonize our mind.
Thanks prof, editor I think It will be nice to write the question he answering on the screen.
😍
The first step to decolonization is to verbally and clearly confess who is our enemy in this physical world.
🙏
I'm at a loss for words here. I love these talks!
P.S nuclear is the future!
The ones who call for peace are often the ones who caused the pain. "The Westerner way"
Where can I buy the shirt that Prof is wearing?
Pl
I think and I keep telling young people that we need sacrifice but we African we don't need to sacrifice owr life to owr children if we ask this older people to give Garment to young people p young people can Rane Africa really good I see alots of African young leads in US A in Canada 🇨🇦 because this older people don't want to give Garment to young people I really really need to talk to you if you don't mind
Expository.
Prof, apologies are tantamount to lip service. And that's one of the reasons Africans are not taken seriously. Borrow a leaf from other peoples who lost 6 million, far less than Africa that has lost more than 100 million
Swahili has a history of the Arabic slave trade.. this is not a language for empowerment of Africans.. the language is Gĩkũyũ ..this language is the light of the world and ought to be installed in the UN and the WTO if we are going to make any progress as the human race.
It is because of it's Banthu language integration! People who worked on finding a language wanted one that is significant African and given the fact that it is so integrational to various African dialects and African maritime trade despite the negatives of slavery makes it suitable!
@@binnahgondwe5158 "language is the carrier of culture" - as far as this statement holds true it seems absurd and somewhat masochistic to o from the language that upholds colonialism to on that innoculates slavery!
Baba I agree with you always 💯 except that I am unable to trust only 2 of 2000 whites or Asians including Chinese in Africa. The original reasons they came (unless through marriage and sometimes even if married) was to exploit and colonize. It's hard for me to accept a person who calls himself for example White Kenyan because "I was born in Kenya as a second generation". To me that's an immigrant, when my identity is also robbed I feel that's overstepping, already land, language, mentality, resources have been taken I refuse for my identity to be theirs. The basis of a white African is via a disgusting history on their part. We are not the same, we should not be content with this statement, we should not take that lightly. We also should not involve these people in top government affairs. This is very dangerous, these are not people who understand the common and similar struggle of the common person, the original nations of Africa. We should not go ahead with this behavior. In fact in my beloved Kenya, we are so welcoming to everyone else except our own and go out of our way to make them comfortable. By the way this may also be the reason the brain drained don't return. I have been in the diaspora for a long time, lived around many races especially the white race for a very long time. I trust very few. We don't go ahead in Africa cause we don't choose us first. We don't choose the identity of our original people first, we don't choose those who relate to the common mama mboga. We instead choose Dubai TV show characters or believe and are amused by mzungu mluhya. Am a Luhya and deeply offended by this .... Meanwhile fellow Kenyan's laugh along....it's not funny, in the USA, it's called Black face. Mzungu mluhya is making fun of you and benefiting himself with your likes! Our mental health is far gone if we find it entertaining. We really need to be decolonized, unlearn, reprogram our education system and most importantly soul search to embrace ourselves.
Swahili is slave-master language.. English is a colonial language... We need to embrace gĩkũyũ because in all countries there is Kikuyu grass (it is even used in golf courses) and consequently it is easier to connect with the motherland where ever you may be, by just holding a prayer session facing mount Kenya.
Do you understand or speak kiswahili?
Kiswahili is a bantu language. There are efforts to arabize it, the arab sgment of the east coast which is also predominantly muslim, and pro arabic has been at the fore front of Arabizing it, sponsoring literature . It is part of tearing africa to the Arab muslim sphere of inluence. Indeed kiswahili has borrowed a lot from arabic, just like any other language has borrowed.
There is lot of English in Gikuyu probably more than the arabic in kiswahili. You are sounding like a kikuyu nationalist, how inappropriate in such a forum! how insensitive of you! kikuyu grass is not kikuyu property. You just turned a honorable term, one of the few names to honor a community into something divisive.
Kikuyu and other bantu languages share more with kiswahili than what you are alleging is shared between kiswahili and arabic. Your logic and argument is toxic generally.
The nilotes and other non bantu find it difficult to learn kiswahili but it is nevertheless accepted as the best, most neurtal, most widespread indigenous African language at least in the east, central and southern Africa
