The Factory-Farmed Mind: Stop Handing Your Seeds to the Machine https://www.spreaker.com/episode/anchored-in-the-storm-breaking-free-from-the-conveyor-belt-and-reclaiming-our-tribe--72400931 We love to talk about liberation, but we keep handing the keys to our future over to the people who built the architecture of our oppression. Let’s stop playing nice. We are navigating a heavy season of transition, family. The world outside is loud, chaotic, and deliberately designed to keep you off-balance. Before you consume another piece of media, take a deep breath, drink your water, and ground your spirit. We are closing out the week of Umoja (Unity) and standing firmly on the foundation of Imani (Faith) . If we are going to survive the storm, we have to stay anchored in ancestral truth, not system-approved lies. An old proverb tells us: “He who does not cultivate his field will die of hunger, but he who does not rest will lose his mind.” Look in the mirror and ask yourself the hard question:...

Belonging To A Conscious Community (Tribing Up)

Peace FAM:
I spend a lot of time thinking about our communtiy, and how to best structure it so that we can build something that is lasting. I truly believe in legacy, and understand that I am responsible for the next 7 generations at least. This is why I get up and do my show, because I am trying to add value to my community and build it. For me this is a lifestyle and as uncomfortable as it can be sometimes I know that it is my responsibilty. I have to reach out and build with like minded folks, as well as battle with some that disagree, but the conversation must be waged. I believe that if we do nothing we are condeming our futre generations to continues servitude to a system that will always put their needs last. We must develop structures that will defend our future, and demand from the powers that be, what is owed to us. We must build instituitons that are for us, and controled by us if not, we will end up as a foot note in history.
Human beings are social creatures, and that is one of the secrets of our success on this planet. As a community we have to re-learn how to build these social structures. For years I have been talking to my FAM, about tribing up. Because I believe that is the structure that will save us. Tribes combine and becomes communities, communities combine and become cities, cities combine and become states, and states combine and become nations.
As a community I often wonder about what is stopping us from being able to move through these steps, and here are a few of my thoughts. Checkout the video:
