De-Program the Matrix: Reclaiming the Ancestral Pen on Kujichagulia

De-Program the Matrix: Reclaiming the Ancestral Pen on Kujichagulia Checkout Episode Let’s stop playing nice and confront a hard truth: Most of you are out here living a life you didn’t write. You’re waking up every day, punching the clock, reacting to the madness on your feed, and executing a sequence of commands that someone else programmed into you. You think you’re free because you get to choose your outfit, but if your mindset is trapped in blame, shame, and fear, you are nothing more than a glitchy piece of software running on an oppressive system's server. Yesterday evening, I came home after picking up my daughter Gina from practice. I was exhausted, trying to wind down early for the morning show. As I sat down, I accidentally sat on the remote control and changed the channel on my wife. A movie popped up. I didn’t know the title, and honestly, it didn’t matter. Within two minutes, I recognized the formula. I knew exactly how the story was going to end. But guess what? I st...

Reciprocity requires Imani (sample)

Reciprocity is the act of returning something to someone who has given you something. In Gye Nyame culture, reciprocity is an integral part of daily life. To understand why, one must first understand that the Ujamaa concept does not exist in isolation; it is at the very heart of our belief system and culture. Ujamaa requires reciprocity from everyone throughout the community which includes both giving and receiving within it. No other element or quality can be found in our system without it being regarded as lacking in some way if there was no reciprocity involved with it.

The individual members of our community are taught that when they receive something, they must return the favor so that they are experiencing a balance of giving and receiving throughout their lives. This balance then allows us to experience an overall sense of harmony throughout our group which is necessary for us to function together in peace and tranquility since our group members recognize that they will be dependent on one another and therefore must learn to respect each other if they want to succeed as a group instead of as individuals.

How to pour Libations

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...
