https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-power-of-imani-trusting-the-unseen-path--70363705 Have you ever felt like you're doing all the right things, putting in the work, but the outcome is still completely hidden from view? For so many of us in the community, the weight of daily survival makes it incredibly hard to see the bigger picture. We get trapped in a mental loop of blame, shame, and guilt—constantly looking at what went wrong in our past instead of what we are building for our future. But what if the only thing standing between your current frustration and your ultimate Peace, Power, and Joy is one invisible ingredient? In today’s episode, we dive into the vibrant red energy of Imani. But we aren't talking about the kind of faith that just sits back and waits for a miracle. We are talking about the active, militant, unshakable belief that has kept our Ancestors moving forward through impossible odds. Why is it so hard to trust our own people sometimes? And how do we rebu...

"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...
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...
The Three R’s of Relationships: Building Bonds on Respect, Responsibility, and Reciprocity In every relationship—whether personal, professional, or communal—there are foundational pillars that support and strengthen our connections. I call these the three R’s: respect , responsibility , and reciprocity . They’re the legs of the stool upon which strong, enduring relationships rest. Respect: Seeing Beyond the Surface True respect goes far beyond superficial acknowledgments. It’s about looking deeper—truly seeing the person beyond what’s on the surface. This means engaging with others on a level that honors their stories, experiences, and inherent worth. Respect isn’t just a courtesy; it’s a commitment to understanding the person in front of you, appreciating their struggles and triumphs, and valuing their unique perspective. Responsibility: Owning Your Part in the Relationship Responsibility in a relationship isn’t just about meeting obligations—it’s about owning your role in nurturing a...
