AFRICAN HURRICANE KINDRED

OUR AFRICAN HURRICANE "KIN" Most weather casts show graphics of hurricanes as originating in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, as though by magic. If fact, they begin in Africa, then cross the Atlantic Ocean, like the slave ships of old, laden with human cargo of captive Africans to labor, to create nations. There is then, in these hurricanes, meteorologically, a cosmic identity with our kindred: untold millions of captives, all borne to like American destinations to do the will of God! African names must also be given to our  kindred carriers of creation.
