Frantz Fanon in his seminal and immortal text; “The Wretched of The Earth” prophetically and provocatively said that “Each generation must out of relative obscurity, discover its mission, fulfill it or betray it”.
At that particular moment Fanon was throwing a generational gauntlet during the height and fever period of anti colonial struggles in Africa and the colonized world. However, this prophetic text has become transcendental and inter-generational.
As such, it has become a reference and rallying point for the youths in post colonial Africa to derive ideological satnav and radical thought process in their quest to chart their own generational political course and mandate.
Accordingly, Makomborero Haruzivishe, who has been considered the latest prisoner of conscience within Zimbabwe, is the apt metaphor of the generation that is fulfilling its generational mission.
