Uluhlu lweekonsathi luqulathe iingoma zokuqala kunye namalungiselelo okuqala eendwendwe, kunye namalungiselelo amalungu angoku eqela elikhulu. Amandla, isingqisho, ukuvumelana kunye nomculo kumculo kuya kunika ngokuhlwa umoya okhethekileyo ekuhlanganiseni iinkcubeko zase-Afrika-Amerika naseNtshona Yurophu.”
