Pole pole I’m reading the book ‘Yurugu.’ In a nutshell, Im understanding that Daktari Ani is saying that the Yurugu views the person in parts who struggle with dealing with opposites like ‘good’ vs ‘evil’ ‘right’ vs. ‘wrong’, etc. Whereas traditionally, Afrikans(black people)tend to view the person as a whole and that ‘opposites’ are more complementary and the viewpoint of ‘not objectifying’ things to view them as real in order to relate, manipulate or control them. She ‘credits’ the Greek ‘falasafah’ Plato with being the ‘originator’ of the school of thought I mentioned above. Anyway, in some ‘trainings’ I have to take and classes Ive been enrolled in, Ive learned that the brain is divided into three ‘states.’ The base of the neck ‘brain’ AKA ‘the flight, fright, freeze or fear state, the ‘mid brain’ AKA the emotional state/memories and the ‘front brain’ which is responsible for ‘logic’ and ‘reasoning.’ After reading the few pages of ‘Yurugu,’ it seems like this compartmentalizing of the brain states are Platonian concepts. Your take? Try not to respond all at once 😆. But for real, on a serious note insight would be greatly appreciated so I can have a better understanding. Asante sana in advance.
