  Stop Being the "Bottom Bitch" for Capitalism: Reclaiming Ujima and the Ancestor Algorithm https://www.spreaker.com/episode/tearing-down-the-capitalist-pimp-game--72456101 Let’s stop playing the game by their rules. We’ve been suckered into a state of survival—scared to look back, terrified of looking forward, and exhausted from grinding in a system that was never designed for us to win. We are living in a capitalist setup that forces us to view our land, our resources, and even our people as expendable widgets. But today, we are shifting the paradigm. We are moving from fear and anger into raw power, peace, and collective joy. Welcome to the cycle of Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility). The Master's Setup: A Rigged Game Capitalism isn’t a neutral economic system. It’s a five-syllable pimp game.

Ujamaa: Moving Beyond Survival to Shared Prosperity


Podcast Episode: https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-green-harvest-of-the-we--69434400

In the Gye-Nyame Journey, we speak often of moving away from the toxic cycle of BSG (Blame, Shame, and Guilt). One of the most practical ways to break that cycle is through the application of Ujamaa, or Cooperative Economics.

Economics is often seen as a cold, distant field of numbers. But in our community, economics is deeply personal. It is about who we trust with our hard-earned resources. When we practice Ujamaa, we are asserting our Self-Determination (Kujichagulia) on a collective scale. We are saying that we have the power to create our own systems of support.

The Practicality of Ujamaa:

  1. Intentional Spending: Look for ways to keep your dollar within the community for as many "hops" as possible.

  2. Shared Resources: Can you pool resources with others to start a garden, a business, or a youth program?

  3. Mentorship: Sharing your professional "secrets" is an act of Ujamaa. Wealth is not just money; it is knowledge.

By choosing the "Green" path today, you are ensuring that the seeds we plant now will provide shade for generations to come. We are not just surviving; we are building a fortress of Peace, Power, and Joy.

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...
