“If we could only learn from nature; it is our classroom. The trees bear fruit; the fruit contains the seeds; the flower bears the pollen. The earth regenerates itself; it sows, then reaps. We must develop a cultural ecosystem – some eternal cycle of African regeneration – planting our roots firmly, spreading and growing as the tubers and rhizomes, deep in the earth, and sowing in our children (the fruits) the seeds to reap another harvest. Each time one of us…is lost to the West, it is worse than losing a fruit; we also lose the seeds therein.”

J. Nozipo Maraire
