Conservatism, Reaction, and the Elder's Responsibility: A Message to My Age Grade Great Day, Fam. This one right here? It’s not for everyone. If you’re not at or approaching Eldership—defined in our tribe as about 55 years old and up—you might not feel all of this. But if you’re curious, or if you’re one of those younger souls already walking with wisdom, you’re welcome to keep reading. This message is for the Elders. For those of us who should know better. And yes—I’m including myself. Let’s Start With the Mirror I’ve got to confess something. I’ve been guilty. Guilty of being reactionary. Guilty of falling into the trap of conservatism. Guilty of romanticizing the past. Guilty of looking at our young people and calling them “soft”—as if we were born warriors, as if we didn’t have to become who we are through fire, failure, and guidance. Many of us Elders are stuck in a loop. We remember only the highlights of our youth—the toughest times we survived, the boldest moments ...

"Water, water everywhere and not a drop to drink"
Peace FAM:
I would like to greet you on this marvelous day of Ujima. If you missed it we a had powerful show last night (Folk Tales For Grown Folks), and I plan to top that tonight with "Tribal Quotes", which for those that don't know airs every Ujima @ 9pm est. Hope to hear or see you in the place. Make sure you like and press the alarm bell so that you will be notified when ever I broadcast, but beware I live stream on FB every morning to Salute the ancestors with a Daily Toast @ 4:15 am est..
Today's topic is simply water, I believe that a majority of the people that I walk by, work with, and work around may be suffering from dehydration. Most people in America although we are surrounded by water are not drinking enough. We are either drinking the chemically laced tap water, or we just are jumping over water altogether and slurping on all the different varieties of mud that are available to us. It appears that abundance is killing us FAM. Water is the first key to life, and we need to begin indulging. I personal like to sip on distilled water, because I like the feel of it. Either way you need to get clean water flowing threw your system. Water not only cleans the body out, makes you smarter, helps build and support neurotransmitters, increase memory, makes you stronger, and most importantly it also supplies the body with axe' (life force). This life force (axe') gives us the power we need to not only heal, but to move to the next level of life. So get you a glass of water, just make sure it is not laced with pesticides, fluoride, and the host of other chemicals. The issue with tap water and the other mud beverages that we drink is that your body has to use water and other bodily resources to extract water. This is exactly why we are dehydrated because our bodies are using more water to get water which causes deficit within our body. Learning to control our physical is much like running a tribe, you have to monitor what goes in and out of it so that you can get the results that you want. If you can govern your body you can govern a community. As the ancestors say "if you can lead yourself you can lead the world. This is an important point for those in GNJ and those taking the 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge, my goal is to help prepare you to not only become the leader in your life, but to move you to being a leader where ever you are. So get out your glass and join me for the Daily Toast, and let's take over the world, or at least our corner. Remember to stay hydrated.
I wish you Peace, Power, Joy & 1hunidyears

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...
