KET.N: “Our Thang,” Our Tribe, Our Responsibility

KET.N: “Our Thang,” Our Tribe, Our Responsibility Great day, Great day, my people! It’s your brother ha2tim, and today I’m bringing you a special reflection—one that digs deep into who we are, what we build, and why we must build together. This article centers around a powerful concept: KET.N , a Kemetic term gifted to our tribe by Brother Kwame Keuchler . KET.N , simply put, means “Our Thang.” Not just something we claim—but something we commit to. Something we shape and something that shapes us. The idea came alive during a conversation about gangster movies—yeah, I love those. One phrase always stood out: “This thing of ours.” And that got me thinking... Because we need that same spirit when it comes to Gye-Nyame. When it comes to Simsa. When it comes to our culture, our children, and our future. We need our own KET.N. KET.N: It Belongs to Us. We Belong to It. KET.N isn’t just a word—it’s a sacred commitment. Our Thang represents a bond with something greater than any individua...

Brother ha2tim here, inviting you on a transformative journey from the shadows of anticipation to the light of action. This narrative is a clarion call to all who have been caught in the snare of waiting for that 'perfect moment' or the 'right opportunity' to manifest.

The perfect time is now, in the actions we take and the decisions we make. Self-Selection is Key: Embrace the concept of choosing yourself. The world is waiting for your light, but first, yo...

The Power of Progress: Embracing the Journey of Personal Growth

  The Power of Progress: Embracing the Journey of Personal Growth Progress Brothers and Sisters, in the hustle of life's journey, we often find ourselves at crossroads. The decisions we make, the silence we keep, and the paths we choose not to tread upon all have profound implications on our destiny. Today, I bring forth the wisdom of Henri Frederic Amiel, echoing a timeless truth: "He who is silent is forgotten; he who does not advance falls back; he who stops is overwhelmed; out distanced, crushed; he who ceases to grow becomes smaller; he who leaves off, gives up; the condition of standing still is the beginning of the end." This proverb is a clarion call to action, a reminder that inaction and complacency are not merely passive choices but active decisions leading towards decline. At the heart of our journey, the essence of progress is undeniable. It is the fuel that propels us forward, the light that guides us through darkness, and the strength that uplifts us in tim...
