Stop Fronting Unity on the Outside While You’re Bleeding on the Inside

Image
The West Monetized the Chaos, But We Preserved the Blueprint Great Umoja Stand at the intersection of Broad and High Streets in Columbus, Ohio during the morning rush, and you’ll see it clearly. The world is moving fast, but it’s moving in circles. Broad splits the city East to West; High cuts it North to South. It is a physical grid designed for economic commerce, but mentally, it’s a meat grinder. Every single day, our people are forced to make a radical internal choice: do you keep burning your spirit navigating a hyper-competitive, frantic system engineered to keep you stressed, or do you drop anchor into the intentional, unyielding rhythm of the ancestors? This isn’t abstract philosophy. It is the life-or-death shift from being trapped in the emotional prison of the Mad, Sad, and Scared to operating in the sovereign authority of Peace, Power, and Joy . We are currently moving through the week of Kujichagulia (Self-Determination) , but today specifically anchors us in Umoja (Unity...

Sword and Sheild

I haven't been writing on my blog or doing my radio shows for over a month. I have been engaged in a personal conflict, now I know that the uninitiated will hear this and be concerned. If you have been traveling with me on this Journey then you know that conflicts are good for a warriors soul. I have been engaged in figuring out how to help young people educate themselves using the internet. We are living in an amazing time and it is time that we start preparing ourselves and our future for it. I have taken the challenge, and will be successful at it.
New challenges are good for several reasons:
1. They help us find out what we are made of
2. They force us to use our imagination, and channel our creativity into a new place
3. They force us to grow in new ways that may be uncomfortable but good
4. They prepare us for the next step in our life, and in many occasions they open the road for us to take the next step.

For those who are on the Journey find yourself a challenge, something that you are forced to place your wits, skill and strength against. A Journey is an adventure and what is an adventure without challenge. It becomes less of a Journey and more like a route. Something that we repeat over and over, it will eventually become boring and we will either stop our Journey, or fall into the trap of becoming the "run of the mill". This for those of us that embrace the Journey know that we have to avoid becoming regular, "run of the mill", and all the other adjectives that sound and smell like death. We have to be willing to face the conflicts of life. These conflicts make us stronger and better people in a world over saturated with normal.
So sharpen your sword, get your shield, and prepare for conflict. For only through this can we become what we were put here to ultimately become.

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...
