Any focus of valuing of indigeneity is highly commendable because modernity in all its forms is always external to our being, always out there. In addition it is so fluid that there is nothing in modernity that people can hold on to for a sense of identity. Indignity however has strong roots and provided the genes and therefore the potential to become humane, value humanizing experiences, devalue dehumanizing experiences, be interested in humanitarian causes which collectively forms the field of study known as the Humanities. Let us therefore take pride in investigating the source of our numbness fully aware that modernity has contributed significantly to any lack of numbness that we see around us. It is time to indefinite the modernes.
Correction to the last sentence of my comment: It should read. Let us therefore take pride in investigating the source of our numbness fully aware that modernity has contributed significantly to any lack of numbness that we see around us. It is time to indigenous the modernes.
