The Weight of False Loyalty: Stripping Down Ujima

The Weight of False Loyalty: Stripping Down Ujima We’ve been sold a lie wrapped in cultural pride, and it is breaking our backs. For generations, the Black experience in America has glorified obligatory suffering. We’ve been conditioned to wear the titles of "Strong Black Man" and "Strong Black Woman" like badges of honor, when in reality, they are often just heavy yokes of trauma. We take on the "Black Tax," assuming the debts, the drama, and the dysfunction of everyone in our bloodline and our zip code. We mistake trauma-bonding for true tribal building, and it keeps us completely anchored in the lower frequencies of being Mad, Sad, and Scared. Today, we are vibrating on the frequency of Ujima —Collective Work and Responsibility. Bathed in the cool, deep hues of royal and light blue, Ujima is often misunderstood. Folks hear "collective" and immediately start gathering everyone else’s problems, saying "yes" until their own spirit is bo...

America needs/
Entrepreneurs creating/
Not jobs to be worked/

Men and Women with vision is what is needed today. We need those that are willing to create jobs, and not just search for them. While speaking to many young people in my community the major thing that I hear repeatedly is about the need for jobs. It seems as if we are in denial about the state of the world. Jobs are vanishing, and leaving opportunity for those who train themselves to see them. We must spark the desire to create jobs. We must foster the entrepreneurial spirit in ourselves and our youth. The day of the government and/or factory job is going the way of the dinosaur. We will be forced to fend for ourselves.This for most will sound terrifying but for those on their Journey this sounds like opportunity. In times of change and confusion that is when the s/heroes rise to create something new. The new mind state that has to come from those on their Journey is how do we provide employment? How do we create value? What skills do I have? what can I teach? what do I need to learn? Where is my Tribe? and etc.. In times like these we get to see our spiritual power in action. Many of us on this journey have to create "bricks from mud", we have have to do the impossible. We have to create value where their is perceived to be none. We have to create opportunities in places that are perceived to be barren. We have to plug into that Higher Power and tap our true creative potential. The opportunities that lie with us now are incredible. This is definitely a time for s/heroes.

We will be the ones that have step up for our kids and our elders. The State has shown us that they are not capable to take care of themselves. Why would or should we trust them with our living libraries (Elders), and our future (children). To do so, would be madness. so let's tap that creativity to become the entrepreneurs that our communities as well as this Nation needs.

How to pour Libations

Image
We pour libations/ to connect with all that is/ and to cleanse our hearts/ I need to start this article by stating this information is based on my personal experience. I have been pouring libations for at least 20 years all over the country and personally. Libations for me is a process of remembering, and connecting or re-connecting to not only the Spirit but everything around us . When we pour libations we are opening ourselves as well as the group to the axe ' of the entire Universe . I first must admit that I do not belong to a group, sect or religious order. I am a lay man who have made a personal connection with the world, and the spirit. By pouring Libations we strengthen these relationship. So let me define a few things first so that we can be on the same page. Libations - the process of pouring or giving a sacrifice to form a connection with this world and the spiritual realm. Spirituality - the state of establishing and maintaining relationships Axe...

The Art of Adaptation: Unveiling the Wisdom of The Bat and The Weasels

  The Art of Adaptation: Unveiling the Wisdom of The Bat and The Weasels “It is wise to turn circumstances to good account.” — Aesop In the world of fables, we often find animals acting out the deepest parts of our humanity. These creatures, symbols of instinct and survival, carry lessons older than time itself. The Bat and The Weasels , retold from the mind of Aesop and reimagined through the lens of Gye-Nyame Journey, isn’t just a tale for children—it’s a guide for those grown folks who still seek mastery. When the World Has You Cornered Here’s the setup: A bat falls to the ground and is caught by a weasel. The weasel hates birds. So the bat, slick with the tongue, says, “I’m not a bird—I’m a mouse.” The weasel lets him go. Later, the same bat falls again. This time, a different weasel catches him. But this weasel hates mice. So what does the bat say? “I’m not a mouse—I’m a bird.” And he gets set free again. Now, you could say the bat was being dishonest. But hold on. Let’s go de...
