"Children of Afrika", more than just a poem by Thando Sipuye, is a war-horn, a sounding and warning call to Black Afrikan people the world over to remember their past and to never forget their historical experience of the Maafa (Black Holocaust) and to know who that European invaders are still their historical enemies. The poem/war-horn reminds Black people that all the experiences of their Ancestors who died under brutal and ruthless circumstances are encoded in their genetic memory and collective consciousness.
