Beyond the Solo Hustle: Reclaiming Our Digital Territory https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ujamaa-claiming-our-territory-and-building-the-bag-together--70438076 We often hear about "getting the bag," but how often do we talk about who we are getting it with? For far too long, our communities have been carrying the weight of economic displacement, wearing the heavy cloaks of blame, shame, and guilt. We’ve been conditioned to operate as rugged individuals, fighting for scraps in an economy we didn't build. But what if the game was never meant to be played solo? In today’s episode, we tap into the vibrant, life-giving energy of Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics). We are looking at the modern landscape—especially the digital frontier—not just as a place to scroll, but as literal territory waiting to be claimed. If you've been feeling stuck in the chaos of today's shrinking job market, there is a profound shift you need to make in how you view your own boundless creativi...

"All warfare is based on deception"
Sun Tzu
Peace FAM:
Once again I greet you in Peace, Power, Joy & 1hunidyears. I know that many will read the title and come on the page looking for me to go on the attack, since everywhere we look online the Black woman is our oppenent, but you will not get that here, especially today. I chose to start this post of with the Sun Tzu quote, to put it clearly in your mind that we are at war, and if war is about deception then we have to watch the world to see how we are being attacked. Now for years we have thought the Black man was under the gun in America. We have the statistics to prove it, but I want to take some time and question this idea, especially in the light of the quote that is hanging over this whole post. The keyword that I need you to focus on is, deception. How do we know that we are not being deceived by all the information that is being gathered on the plight of the Black man. I know that this may rub some of my readers the wrong way because we have been able to build a thriving industry off of the plight of the Black man, but the closer I look at our situation, the culture we evolved from, and slickness of our enemy and I am beginning to see a different picture. In my humble opinion Black women are and have been the major target of this West Asian society. If you go back over my videos one of the statements I made was that the family belongs to the Black woman, and that culture is the child of man. Now I won't go into a lenghty description of what I mean here ( I probably will be ranting about this idea on my video anyway, so check it out). The Black woman holds the most important position in our culture. She is the guardian of the family, now for many of you who have come up through the west Asian process will find this hard to stomach. According to the dominant culture that is molding the minds of people here in America, woman are relegated to the lowest rung of society, and like good slaves (male & female) we do as our master demonstrates. We look at the woman and see no value or power within her, but the fact is that the woman holds the pivotal role in our and all cultures. The woman gives birth to, and raises the future of the people. She is the player that holds the family structure together and brings order into the life of the children so that they can grow up and participate in the culture. She molds and shapes the mind of the young, even before they are given to the system to be molded and shaped by man. Now being someone that loves to think deeper than the surface, I see that if I eliminate the man but leave the woman in tact then I have a problem for generations. On the other hand if I eliminate the woman, by destroying her role, sense of importance, and drive her crazy I eliminate generations. Each man I destroy, only one man is destroyed, but for every woman I destroy, a group is destroyed, because as I said earlier she is the foundation and guardian of the family. Now checkout the video, and let me know what you think. Please, remember the idea behind the show is to stimulate thought , and wise action. I share my opinion on things and I hope that you will do te same. Checkout the Video, Like, Subscribe, and most importantly SHARE.

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...
