Kimpa Vita is a rejected stone that should become the builder’s head cornerstone in the modern era. Kilele is remolding an intentionally forgotten page of a Kongolese, say an African history, told by a conqueror to please their desire but is now rewritten by Africans themselves, as predicted by the late Patrice E. Lumumba. Greater than the French Joan of Arc, Kimpa Vita rejects Western religious alienation, domination, and spiritual formatting—a radical stance misjudged by the Western catholic priests who conspire with the naive locals to get her and her son burned at the stake. As an African martyr and heroine, Kimpa Vita, through her passion, as recounted by Jemadari Vi-Bee-Kil Kilele, remains a realistic tale to tell to the world’s generations at large, in order to expose false and imposed Western religions.
