African spirituality vs Christian religion! Dr Khanyisile Litchfield-Tshabalala

Hey South Africa, we’ve finally landed in your beautiful land. We speak to one of your best African spirituality promoters -Dr. Khanyisile Tshabalala. We’re happy to host her and learn on African spirituality and how Africans practiced it then and why we need to hold onto it now more than ever.
Religion plays a key role in Africa. On this episode we look at what Africa was before colonization and the African spiritual practices held. Colonization as a social system affected how Africans behave on different life aspects and spiritual practice is major. We also detail on the effects of colonialism on African spirituality. Our guest shares on the differences between African spirituality vs Christianity as a religion.
00:01 - Colonialism as a social system.
01:43 - Effects of colonialism on African spirituality
05:10 - African spirituality, language culture vs African languages
08:40 - African spirituality vs Christianity practices
10:56 - Nation groups vs ethnic groups
12:40 - Gender grammar in Christianity vs spirituality
15:30 - Christianity vs dictatorship, colonialism, neocolonialism
17:17 - Africa pre-colonial
20:48 - The catholic church and colonization
22:47 - Religion as a patriarchal system vs spirituality
27:15 - The Spirituality practice vs religion practice
29:10 - Christianity is a western system
31:30 - African fundamental practices - Religion is faith spirituality you just know
35:08 - Embracing self as African and African spirituality
38:55 - Mediocrity in African politics
41:15 - Afrocentric leadership for Africa

    @@joshuamadalitsochiundiza8638 Maybe you have a point. But I am wondering which representation of Christianity is not colonial in Afrika? Except for Ethiopia, where Christianity is also not indigenous, by the way: Acts 8: 26 - 40. It is an externally infused ideology. Tell me of an Afrikan community that was christian in 10 BCE? In 476 at the fall of the Roman Empire? Or of an Afrikan community where France, Britain, Portugal, Italy, and Spain, did not infuse Christianity into the colonial philosophy. Are you up for an interview, to educate us on the Non-Colonial Christianity, to bring the balance? It would be interesting to learn.

    @@DrKhanyiLitchfieldTshabalala Siyabonga Mama Tshabalala for your response. I am in agreement to some extent on your point of external infusion of Christianity, but my point dwells ultimately on the African response to Christianity, the philosophical benchmark being African realism, where Africa has always had a response to external infusions, whether forced or of our free will. Christianity is recent in the context of African history, but its adoption and adaption locates that premise of African realism that is the crux of Africa's response to Christianity. This is manifested by individuals like Emperor Ezana, Prophetess Kimpa Vita, Simon Kimbangu, St Augustine of Hippo, Johanne Marange etc. Or the unspoken Abba Mikael who had a brief but great influence on reformer Martin luther. I wouldnt mind an interview, I am keen to learn. Asante sana for your response, I am also your student, with many questions.

Thank God for social media we are getting better and more informed about the situation. We know today that the earlier colonizers were killers and liars. They distorted the narrative to potray their thoughts and actions. Our Tongues may differ across Africa but the Spirituality across the continent is the same. The Europeans copied and whitewashed our beliefs to be theirs. Thank God for the new awakening.

    It is not just Tobago. It is both the diaspora and the continent herself. It is almost like we have been bewitched. We even kill each other about Islam or Christianity. Now we have a faction that is breeching Christianity and Judaism. My analysis has always come to the same conclusion = decolonisation or the need for a cultural revolution. Europe went through it in Rennaissance, India has had one, China, Malysia, America, Japan.... But no, we want to berate our spirituality, culture, and languages, and hope to rise.

    Very interesting interview. I have believed in Christ for a long time. I understand her views but I think she is leaving out the fact that the scriptures were prominent in Ethiopia long before colonisation. People knew the Word long before these events occurred. Catholicism alone does not sum up the message of Jesus. And for the record, I am in full support of the idea that Jesus himself was not a white man. Point is, the words of scripture have been used to control and divide not only Africa, but the entire world, something that Jesus(Yeshua) would not want. Race itself is a false term created to divide. We are one race, one people, the HUMAN race. Humanity UNITE. God bless you all. Shalom to all cultures, all creeds, all nations former and lasting.

The prescription makes us forget and follow without listening to the internal God direction. It has also lead to us denying our natural ties with ancestors which all other nations respect.

    There was the Coptic church and Ethiopian church before the catholics. However these churches were formed through the Greeks not by africans. The kushite king at the time Ezana made his kingdom into a Christian kingdom after his conversion by two Caucasians either of greek or turkish origin who had come from Egypt. So all the subjects of that kingdom had no choice but to abide by the king. Those who denied it eg the oromo are still non christianized africans.

    But we are also slowly sliding and receding to the mediocrity that is rampant in this continet: where Afrikan Spirituality is synonymous with witchcraft, where only Islam or Christianity can officiate over the opening of Parliament, where the Afrikan language or mother tongue ends either in primary school or junior secondary. I mean in some Afrikan countries, jacket and tie is the only permissible attire in Parliament. We are also going there, if we do not stand up and defend the little traces that remain of our BEING. Neocolonialism, is by nature, an anathema to ubuntu, to our culture and spirituality. It is a war - and I do not think we are conscious as Afrikans in SA, that we are at war.

    I want to share this video with everyone I know. As a Canadian born Jamaican, I struggle to know myself. My "Jamaican" culture is a mix of African slavery and British colonization. Jamaica’s national dish (ackee and salt fish) comes from West Africa (ackee) and Britain (salted cod). I struggle to connect with my family because I am awake and question everything about our culture. Jamaicans, especially my family are so lost in Christianity they don’t understand what I see and know. They need something to believe in without understanding their power is within. I needed the reminder that spirituality comes from within not a "high priestess" or other head. Thank you for sharing this!

    How will your spirit transition from here to heaven without the power of holy spirit. Logical God is the one i will meet not a familiar spirit. I want to know why does it matter of jesus was black or white will that change my fate. Will i not have to accept my fate ? If i decide to reject God follow after another spirit. If I decide not to accept jc as my savior will learning my heritage, which exempt me from God wrath. I am .... Great i Am .... we our in trouble. Thank God for who he is because he knew sent us our lord savior. Just asking question nothing more because I have accepted, will not follow a stranger voice.

    I identify with all that this SeeStar says. I too always asked questions a lot in church got me into trouble a lot, eventually I left & yes it was like going through a messy divorce took 2yrs before I stopped saying I was 7 day Adventist & 3yrs to stop saying I was christian. The brainwashing was very deep & embracing African Spirituality is what helped me remain liberated. I have a much stronger & closer relationship with my Ancestors & my guides they help me a lot. I am aware of their presence every waking hour.

    Really enjoying this. I practiced Christianity for many years until God provided me with an awakening. I now pay attention to the synchronicities that exist. God will always make Himself and His message clear to those whose spirits are awake. I’ve learned that there are many truths in many spiritual practices and it’s ok for me to adopt what resonates with my journey.
