Uncomfortable Truths: Stop Coddling and Reclaim Your Power

Image
Uncomfortable Truths: Stop Coddling and Reclaim Your Power Walking across a parking lot, shifting from a vehicle to the school, I couldn’t help but notice the discomfort lurking beneath our everyday interactions. Even while I was in the midst of my Ramadan fast—a practice that sharpens the mind and spirit—I felt compelled to address a deeply ingrained issue in our society: the idea that we must make everyone feel comfortable at all times. The Comfort Conundrum We’ve been conditioned to believe that ensuring everyone’s comfort is not just desirable but essential. However, when it comes to confronting anti-blackness and reclaiming our space, this comfort becomes a barrier rather than a bridge. Too often, we allow those who would undermine our strength to settle in too easily, softening our resolve. It’s time to shed the notion that we owe anyone an easy ride. The Unyielding Call for Accountability There’s a powerful message echoing from the words of John Henry Clark: we owe nothing b...

We are making Progress

Image
We are moving forward here at Gye-Nyame Journey. Those that have been following the Podcast have noticed that I have recently started using Google Hangouts, to give listeners an opportunity to join the live show. After the show is completed, it is downloaded to spreaker. I recently was introduced to the Uberconference app, and will begin to use it in two ways. With  uberconference I will begin doing pre-recorded podcast with my dedicated audience. Of course I will continue posting up information about the shows, and re-broadcasting most of them. Some shows I will use for the Gye-Nyame Warrior Training Course that I will be releasing soon. The other way I will use uberconference is by focusing it on you. I want to use this conferencing tool to connect with my readers and listeners. The show will be called "The Line" and it will always be open and you as a listener to the show or reader of the blog will be able to call in, and contact me, and we can do a conversation that wil...

Simba/Simsa Fundraiser

Dear Friend  and Family: We are in the final days of our fundraiser. For those who don’t know, we are raising funds to take our young people to Simsa/Simba camp goto http://www.rescuereleaserestore.org/ Follow the link and get more info about the camping experience and the organization. This year we set a goal to be able to take 30 boys and 10 girls to Simba/Simsa camps. The cost for each youth is $350 including camp, transportation to Dixon, Illinois, and the annual reunion in February. With all the work we have found ourselves $1300 short. To make up the the shortfall we will be having a fish fry from 6-9pm on Friday 6-19-15 @ The Millennium Community School of 3500 Refugee road, columbus, Oh 43232. Each plate will be $10 dollars and we will also be selling pop. Come out to support and have a good time with us. If you can’t make it you can still support us by going to https://www.crowdrise.com/simbacol/fundraiser/Ha2tim and donate. Remember that “your small change can ...

FreeStyle Friday- 6-12-15

Image
This is freestyle, and I am wondering what will pop off my mind onto my tongue and out my mouth. Feel free to join the hangout, message me so that I can see the link so that you can join the conversation directly or feel free to message questions and comments. I will give you a shout out, and if you have something you want me to  let me know. I have to be honest I have been plagued by the image of a young man being shot from behind, and it being forgotten so that we can discuss what I consider "fuckery" in Texas. Remember #ausetwe need you, now more than ever. Asar has been cut to pieces and this young Herus are running around here like they have no sense. Hopefully we will wake up before we hit the designed end for us. Also religion has been plaguing me for a few hours today. I need to ask at some point how do we escape the mind and spirit traps that have been laid for our souls. But hey its freestyle and I will flow, and hopefully you will join me. I had problems with the...
