KET.N: “Our Thang,” Our Tribe, Our Responsibility

Image
KET.N: “Our Thang,” Our Tribe, Our Responsibility Great day, Great day, my people! It’s your brother ha2tim, and today I’m bringing you a special reflection—one that digs deep into who we are, what we build, and why we must build together. This article centers around a powerful concept: KET.N , a Kemetic term gifted to our tribe by Brother Kwame Keuchler . KET.N , simply put, means “Our Thang.” Not just something we claim—but something we commit to. Something we shape and something that shapes us. The idea came alive during a conversation about gangster movies—yeah, I love those. One phrase always stood out: “This thing of ours.” And that got me thinking... Because we need that same spirit when it comes to Gye-Nyame. When it comes to Simsa. When it comes to our culture, our children, and our future. We need our own KET.N. KET.N: It Belongs to Us. We Belong to It. KET.N isn’t just a word—it’s a sacred commitment. Our Thang represents a bond with something greater than any individua...

Economics can be defined as the branch of social science that deals with the production and distribution and consumption of goods and services and their management. on our journey it is our challenge to look deeper into issues. Ujamaa teaches about cooperative economics but the challenge is to look beyond the outer and move inward. Their is no way we can can talk about managing anything if we have taken the time to learn to mange our inner world. Just for a few moments today I challenge you think about what products you create in your life, how you distribute them to your self and to others. Are the products (thoughts, emotions, imaginations and etc.) are they good or bad for you. Are your products good for those around you.Cooperative economics is not just about gathering and combining the resources outside of us. It starts as all these principles do, from the inside of our being. What are the personal resources we have over looked. What skill do we have that we can master to help build our lives and then the communities life around us.

After we do the internal work it will be easy for us to look into the world and mange the resources around us no matter how small they are. When you find a person that has mastered themselves they appear to be able to do miracles with little external resources. When I speak of mastery i want to make it clear that I am not talking about a perfected being with no issues. I am talking about the individual who has decided to take the journey toward mastering something in their life and the world.

Today lets focus on Ujamaa and learn to first manage our internal resources, and then move to work in our communities. Empty individuals without the keys to mastery, and guiding principles can be given all the opportunity and resources in the world and they will create nothing but destruction and confusion. If you do not believe me look at the present state of our economy. hahahahahahaa

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...
