THE ILLUSION OF THE SPECTACLE

  THE ILLUSION OF THE SPECTACLE https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-illusion-of-the-spectacle--72183382 Are we truly building power, or are we just put on a show for a world that profits off our consumption? The ancestors told us long ago: "A heap see, but a few know." Right now, our culture is highly visible, but visibility without ownership is just a gilded cage. We look at the flash, the trends, and the status symbols, thinking we’ve arrived, while ignoring the machinery running behind the curtain. We are text-booking the illusion of inclusion while missing out on the actual ledger of power[cite: 1, 9]. True prosperity is a collective harvest, but we have spent too much time over-cultivating fields that do not belong to us. The tension is real: to build up our communities, we don't need to add more burdens or chase more systemic accolades. We need to look at what we must subtract to get back to our potent center[cite: 5, 7]. Call to Inaction "He who empties his ...

Gypsy festival

Gypsy festival/
Local talent share their skills/
A beautiful site/

I was invited down to Cincy to take part in the Gypsy festival. It was a beautiful event, and  I will be at the next event. For those that don't know the Gypsy lounge has a spot in cincy and columbus ohio.
They invited local talent from all over the state to share what they do. The poets, Hip-Hop artist, R&B, Jazz,Rock, and etc..
I want to first send out shouts to Gypsy lounge for putting on the event (especially Abdi and Zee). Then I need to send out some shots for Rasul the Knowbody that helped get me there.
KnowVernacular slam team put it down sharing there soul with some powerful pieces (coach Jugh Jeffner, Lotus Blossom, and Kari) giving out a mix of soul and truth. There was a Rock band that laid down some hot shit, known Grey Leaves.
Unfortunately my phone died on the way down so I didn't get no pics, but I want to send props out to ShyRony (to check out some of their music hit them up @ reverbnation.com/ShyRony) for putting on a hot set. Beautiful young ladies and I will write some more on them in the future when I do another salute to local artist.
Hey, summer is coming and it is time to turn off the radio and get out and support local artist. They can only get as good as their support. So that means they need to make money, so get  out and support what you like. Start demanding that your local radio station plays more local artist. You dont find it strange that everywhere you go the same shit is on rotation. Where is the local flavor, and why isn't it being supported by the local media. The radio stations wanted us to get up and call our politicians to block the bill that would have them paying royalties to artist, now in return you need to demand that they start showcasing some local talent. If they don't lets just cut out the middleman that is trying  to force feed us bullshit through the airwaves.

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...
