Description

There are several problems with the concept of decolonization and/or decoloniality that I aim to delineate in this
chapter. The first problem is using a colonial language to conceptualize reality. The second is conceiving of time as a line which includes
pre-colonial, colonial, and post-colonial. The third is rooting one’s identity and self-definition in the anticipated presence, the current presence, or the ostensible leaving of one’s colonial enemy.

In this chapter, using comparative historical analysis, I argue that what I call #gandhimustfall was not about
decolonization (a hot buzzword which attracts big funding). In reference to what I term Amnirense qore li kdwe li’s
#augustusmustfall campaign, #gandhimustfall is framed here as part and parcel of a continued effort in the cyclic multi-millennial effort towards srwḏ tꜢ n Kmt ‘Restoring the Land of Black People’ and the restoration of mꜢꜤt ‘Maat’: a continued effort to prevent the encroachment of non-Black eurasians into the land of Black people and, when this is not possible, to drive them out whenever
they (or their images designed to project soft power) enter our land. ⁣
