To curtail a society from moving forward is a simple exercise of denying education and thinking (a synonym of philosophy). To know where we are going, we need to know and understand where we come from. So your basic question is what can we do to move our people forward. A famous man, JFK, once quoted "Don't ask what (the country) can do for you, rather ask what you can do for (the country)" In my opinion if we can focus and improve our education for our people, encourage and promote entrepreneurship, gauge and discourage victim mentality, and root out entitlement and apathy. The basis of a strong community is their level of education, communication, entrepreneurship and kinship. Let's take responsibility, for it is responsibility that guarantees our freedom. The more informed you are, the better suggestion you are likely to offer, that may contribute to moving our people forward. The first step in making a difference, is to philosophically inquire who, what, where, when and how. It is obvious that being informed leads to personal empowerment. So what do we do to move our people forward, educate, educate, educate. We should put structures in place that encourages education, set up mentorhood, leadership programs, unite and unionize community programs, initiate an education financial fund and scholarships. In order for us to move forward as a society, as a people, we need to dispel perceptions, stereotypes, history and knowledge that encourages divisive, first people syndrome thinking, philosophy. Do not ask me to stop thinking, but you are right we need actionable things, and your contribution is just valuable as the next. Their are so many things we can do, so many things you can do. You sitting on a pedestal and asking me what we can do to move our society forward is rich, what is your suggestion, your idea, your plan to move our people forward, share with us, leads and we would be able to make a difference. Wanting you purely to respond, write, make suggestions and share your thoughts is purely and simply one of the aims of this website. I thank thee. The success and longevity of this forum depends on your contribution, therefor I invite you to share your ideas about moving our people forward. The answer to a better world lies within you, share it with world, and the world might just change because you took the time to share and think (or if you like philosophize).

Yet it only moves my fingers across the keyboard, in a eager manner - wanting purely to respond. Can we debate, or alternatively state what we need to do about moving forward as a people, what is the ACTIONABLE things you me, and countless other readers can do - to contribute to moving our society forward. Can we please get off this philosophical debate about our roots. Kan ons minder K*K praat...and can we get moving with starting programs, development forums etc. Can we read more about such things PLEAZE.
