Ulusu olukhanyayo luthetha nje imelanin encinci, akukho nto ininzi

Khotso Moleko

Enoba ubani uyakukholelwa oko okanye akunjalo, ingxelo yendalo ekwiGenesis iluncedo kakhulu kwiinjongo zesidima somntu, ngokukodwa inkalo yokuba uThixo wadala uAdam, iNdoda yokuqala, kwaza emva koko, indoda nebhinqa.

Abaphengululi baya kubhekisela kwiingxelo zendalo “njengeentsomi,” kwaye ukusuka kweli nqanaba, amaSilamsi, amaHindu, kunye nabanye, kuquka namaAfrika, baneengxelo zendlela eyabakho ngayo indalo nabantu — nezilwanyana nezityalo, kunjalo!

Kodwa enye into eqhelekileyo kukuvumelana ukuba kuqala kwabakho umhlaba – umhlaba, kwaza kwalandela umhlaba apho umntu wayeyilwe khona. Ngoku, ukuba umntu ujonga oku nakwimbono ecocekileyo yenzululwazi yendalo, kuyacaca ukuba kukho umhlaba omnyama, umhlaba omdaka nobomvu, umhlaba oyisanti, onokubonakala njengomntu ophaphathekileyo, kunye nezinye iindidi zomhlaba ezinombala.

Wonke umntu osemhlabeni uya kufumana umhlaba othile ofana nenkangeleko yawo. Nangona kunjalo, akukho ndlela umhlaba omhlophe ococekileyo uya kufana nomntu, kubandakanywa nalabo baziwa ngokuba “mhlophe.”

Oku kusizisa kolona gxininiso lwethu – into yokuba bonke abantu banombala othile eluswini lwabo okanye ibala lesikhumba elenza ulusu lwabo lube nenkangeleko ethile kunye nokumila. Imelanin sisibala esinika ulusu umbala walo. Abantu abanemelanin eninzi banesikhumba esimnyama.

Bonke abantu banayo le nto. Lo nguwo kuphela umahluko phakathi kwabantu kuba bonke banegazi elibomvu elinye! Ngoko ke, kutheni abantu abathile becinga ukuba ibala lolusu labo lelona liphakamileyo okanye linqweneleka ngakumbi okanye lifuzisela ubuthixo? Ngokwenyani, abo banemelanin enkulu eluswini lwabo, njengabantu abaninzi abamnyama baseAfrika, kufuneka babhiyozelwe kwaye bamkelwe njengemvelaphi yabo bonke abantu kunye nokugcinwa kobuntu.

Ngenxa yoko, ukuba mhlophe kuthetha ukunqongophala kwemelanin qha, hayi ukuba ngcono! IMelanin iluncedo ngeendlela ezininzi, kwaye abantu abamnyama kufuneka babe nebhongo ngokuba nayo kakhulu kunalo naliphi na elinye iqela lobuhlanga emhlabeni.

Akukho mathandabuzo okuba ngeengcamango ezifana nokufudumala kwehlabathi kunye nemitha yelanga eyingozi, kunokwenzeka ukuba abo banemithwalo yemelanin mhlawumbi babe kwindawo engcono yokuchasana nolu tshintsho lwendalo kunye nolwemvelo olunokonakalisa kwaye luguqule imathiriyeli yeDNA.

Ukuba iifilimu zinokukholelwa kwaye uKhetho lweNdalo luyamkelwa, abamnyama banokuba kwindawo yokuba sekufunweni kwixesha elizayo elingekude kakhulu, xa ezinye iintlanga zinethemba lokusebenzisana nabo, kwaye zizuze ilifa lemelanin exabisekileyo.

Oko kuya kunceda ukulungelelanisa izikali kunye nokuchitha iintsomi ekudala kukho kunye neenkolelo ezibubuxoki malunga nokuphakama kobuhlanga kweqela elithile.
