RE: [PAYCO] Indeed PAC needs Unity
Ma-Afrika Unity is the fundamental principle in all our work as party cadres in that the PAC, an organisation respresents a melting pot of ideas and views and provides everyone with the ultimate sense of belonging and serves as an enabler for each and everyone of us realise our full potential. Before getting intergrated into party confines, we are but a raw social material and hence individualistically narrow in our perspectives, oulooks and general social interactions. Only within the PAC can we graduate into complete social beings by way of political socialisation undertaken systematically through the medium of the unifying Africanist ideology which vehemently eschews factionalism, tribal tendencies, petty bourgeois arrogance, small-minded talk, and a host of other western capitalist chauvinist vices. What then are we striving for as the party, primarily for party unity, constantly for a unified ideological outlook, and ultimately for the United States of Africa and a global Pan-Africanist peoplehood. Our primary responsibility is to ourselves as the personifaction and embodiment of these levels of unity which history and the logic of conditions in our society bestows in us thus allowing very little chance to chose particular forms of action other than those that maximise unity, philosophically as social meaning, value and purpose. In other words, well-grounded Africanists desire nothing less or more other that unity in words and deeds. In the final analysis unity is an attitude of mind and a way of life of all Africanists in their relationship with one another, with the masses, with nature and ultimately with God. It why at various stages of the party's life, tend to emerge critical questions of unity and figures propagating party or organisational unity more forcefully than others. It is because it is in the nature of party life for that situation to prevail. These are not default actions by politically misdirected individuals or opportunists but represents more a dynamic urge to work in the fulfillment of something lacking within that member concerned first and foremost.There can be no higher service in the PAC, no political fulfillment among party cadres, no job well done and no deam realised, other than dedicating oneself to party unity. This is the highest form of party discipline and any member commitment to party work and progress shall at all times be measured on that score. There can be no better unifier than the sum of cadres dedicated to party work bacause it pressuposes the ultimate fulfillment of service to our people. Let allow all activities, all endeavours, large and small, towards unity be given free reign. Let all these schools of thought, methods and approaches within the party in search of unity contend for the party to emerge purer and purer in the whole crucible of the African people's historical destiny.

We share the concerns raised by the comrades who are propagating for Unity Talks, but we disagree with the approach adopted completely. We believe any attempt to handle party unity cannot succeed as long as those who lead that process are not brutally honest with those they are trying to unite. For starters, we have not heard these leaders denouncing factionalism that is fueled by Mphahlele in the party, rejecting the creation of parallel structures, physical assaults to party members, non distribution of party membership cards, disbandment of structures that refuse to support an Agenda to destroy the party and total disregard of party constitution.
