Stop Begging the Soil: The Subtractive Power of Self-Determination

Stop Begging the Soil: The Subtractive Power of Self-Determination Checkout the Episode Let’s stop playing small and look at the math of our reality. We’ve been conditioned to look at the Black experience in America and see a graveyard. We look at the red dirt, the historical trauma, the systemic roadblocks, and we think we’ve been buried. But our ancestors knew a deeper truth: the darkness isn’t a burial; it’s a cocoon. A seed doesn’t stand in the dirt begging the surrounding weeds for permission to expand. It doesn’t ask the rocks to validate its identity. Deep within its spiritual DNA, it already holds the absolute, unshakeable blueprint of a giant mahogany or an ancient baobab tree. It is inherently self-governed. That is the raw essence of Kujichagulia—Self-Determination . Yet, too many of us are operating like Princess Natur before she found her power. We’ve allowed the cruel opinions of a broken society to shrink our self-esteem, curving our backs and isolating our spirits. We’v...

Daily Toast- Umoja 43171

Peace FAM
We have made it into another week, and I have lost count, but I thank you for reading these post, and following me on my personal challenge, and journey. Hopefully you have found some inspiration, and we have brought some value to your life. Unity is a powerful principle that when applied can conquer any obstacle that is placed before you as an individual. Unity is a principle that has to be exercise individually before it can be effective as a group. Unity empowers us to work as a whole unity, pulling on all the resources of our whole being (IMESP). I have to stress this because many of us look for collective groups, families or tribes, but have not truly unified within. When this happen the group dissolves because all of the members are looking for a wholeness from the group, that can only start from within. Now is the time to begin working on yourself, learning to harness the Umoja force. When you begin doing this you will start attracting other whole people, and from there you will begin to build the healthy collective that will only add to you rather than drain you.
Nuff Said
Peace & 1hunidyears
Let's Build!!!

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...
