<translate> History, just like the linguistic devices that carry it through space and time, is a living thing and has a way of repeating itself. In one way, this repetition could serve as a reminder of several things: In one way as a set of questionsWewe ni nani? Watoka wapi? Waenda wapi? And in another way, it could also be historys way of reprimanding us for not telling it properly, for letting it thrive in the unbefitting realm of a single-sided story, It is historys way of coming back either as reprehension or redemption, for even in the forgetfulness of not relaying it properly, there will always be a people in every generation that fight to retell authentic history, redeeming their own selves and communities in the process. <swh>Historia, sawa na vyombo vya lugha vinavyoisafirisha kupitia mazingira na muda, ni kitu kilicho hai na ina hali ya kujirudia. Hii sifa ya kujirudia ni kama ukumbusho wa mambo kadhaa: njia moja kama maswali Wewe ni nani? Watoka wapi? Waenda wapi? Na kwa njia nyingine kama karipio kwa makosa yetu ya kutoieleza historiya ipasavyo, kwa kuiacha istawi katika nafasi isiyofaa ya hadithi iliyo na mtazamo wa pande moja tu, kutukemea kwa kuiendeleza kwa vizazi vijavyo kwa hali ya kutokamilika na kutokuwa na ukweli kamili. Ni namna ya historiya kuja tena kukemea na kukomboa, maana hata kwa ile hali ya usahaulifu wa kuieleza ipasavyo, lazima kutakuwa na wanaharakati katika kila kizazi wenye kupigania umuhimu wa kueleza historiya ipasavyo, na kwa mchakato huu kujikomboa nafsi na jamii zao.
