The Locked Door with No Key: Why Ohio’s SB 153 Threatens Our Voting Rights

The Locked Door with No Key: Why Ohio’s SB 153 Threatens Our Voting Rights Imagine being told you must enter a building to access your rights—to speak, to be counted, to shape the laws that govern your life. The door is locked, and you're told you need a key. But no one will tell you what kind of key you need. Some folks bring house keys. Others arrive with driver’s licenses, birth certificates, even passports. They jiggle them in the lock—nothing works. They aren’t denied because they’re unqualified. They’re denied because the rules changed without explanation. This is the danger behind Ohio’s Senate Bill 153 (SB 153)—a bill that hasn’t passed yet , but is already knocking on our community’s door. What Is SB 153? SB 153 is a proposed law—not yet passed —currently being considered by Ohio’s state legislature. It would require all voters to prove their citizenship before casting a ballot. That may sound fair on the surface—but the bill doesn’t define what “proof of citizenship” ac...

Fasting is Natural: You’re Already Doing It!

Fasting is Natural: You’re Already Doing It! Many people think they can’t fast. They believe it’s an extreme discipline reserved for monks, spiritual seekers, or health fanatics. But the truth is, you already fast every single day without even realizing it. My goal is to show you how fasting is a natural part of your daily life and how you can extend it gradually to experience powerful health benefits. You’re Already Fasting Every Night Think about it—when you go to bed, you stop eating. From the time you close your eyes until you wake up, your body is in a fasting state. Then, in the morning, you have a break-fast (yes, you are literally breaking your fast ). But here’s the key—most people don’t think about their sleep as part of their fasting time. What if we did? What if we counted those hours and built on them? Let’s break it down. Building Your Fasting Practice Step by Step If you sleep 7 hours, that’s already 7 hours of fasting. What if, instead of eating immediately upon wakin...

The Subtle but Powerful Shifts of Fasting: A Journey of Discipline and Transformation

Image
The Subtle but Powerful Shifts of Fasting: A Journey of Discipline and Transformation Fasting is often reduced to a conversation about weight loss, but my journey has been about so much more. From January 6 to January 27 , I undertook a fast that challenged not just my body, but also my mind and spirit. It wasn’t easy, but the process gave me clarity, self-discipline, and a deeper understanding of my body’s resilience. I want to share my experience—not just the numbers, but the way fasting reshaped my daily habits, my mental clarity, and my approach to health. Tracking the Physical Shifts 📉 Weight Loss During the Fast – I started at 197.8 lbs on January 6, and by January 27, I weighed 172.8 lbs . That’s over 25 pounds lost , but what mattered more was how my body felt . 💖 Blood Pressure Improvement – My BP started at 150/102 and by the end of my fast, I recorded 120/80 on January 21 and even 108/67 on January 27. My cardiovascular system was responding to the cleansing effects ...

Let's Talk About What Hunger & Thirst Taught Me (2017)

Let's Talk About What Hunger & Thirst Taught Me (2017)   Great Imani: Family we are at the end of our Kujichagulia week, and I am thrilled to be able to end this fast in success. I have taken all the lessons from the past and been able to make it through this fast without almost dieing. As you may have noticed I am now sharing videos from GNJMedia's past broadcast, and this is to give myself more time to do some of the other work required of me as a Nation Builder, moving toward the elder phase of my life. Pay attention to all the videos that will be coming to you in the future, becuase i am not only going to be sharing great information with you, but I want you to see how consistent we have been over the years. I just want to remind you that GNJMedia is not new to this, we are true to this, so get the lesson. "Become Digitally free with everything that is provided by the Nation and with your own efforts." I am also still working on the eMag from Umoja of this cyc...

The Hidden Power Of Fermented Food

Image
Peace FAM: Y'all know that I am in love with the fermenting process. I actually believe that this the true practice of alchemy. So it is a pleasure to share this process with you. So checkout the video and learn, and if you have some information to share please do because our community is in need of this art. This is right about the time I started really losing weight during the fast, but we made it.

From Intermittent Fasting To Prolonged Fasting

Peace Fam: I am on day 3 of my detox fast. I am of course drinking "That Ambrosia", "That Ambrosia Vinagar", "That Ginseng Ambrosia", water, chloroxygen, coconut oil, red palm oil, and coconut water. I feel good, and I feel the process of renewal. I really don't know how long I am going to do this fast, but i am at the point where the fast begins to be all down hill. After 3 days of fasting I usually feel that I am able to go for another 3-4 days. My goal is to give my entire body time to reset, and to remember what it means to be hungry. I want to be able to harness that feeling and apply it to my videos, podcast, and writing. I have found that I am not hungry I just want to eat, and I had a few close calls. This is a true test of my Kujichagulia, so let's see how far I can take it. It is good to get out of our comfort zone, and eating has always been a comfort for me. Food has always been availiable to me. So to be around my kids and friends th...

Prolonged Fasting - Daily Toast Umoja 529171

Image
Peace FAM: Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, we jump into the world of prolonged fasting. I must say that I am amazed. I knew about fasting, but as far as the renewing of the body, and the immune system I am shocked and this will definately be adding this to my regiment. Accord to the small amount of research we have conducted the only things that you really need to maintain a healthy life is proper breathing, water, fasting, and proper food (check out the African Heritage Diet I will be doing another video on it soon) I also unveiled another Ginseg root  that has been sitting undisturbed for 8 days in "That Ambrosia", and I must admit that it is good. It has a nice earthy, slightly woody taste, it is a bit on the bitter side, but very drinkable, and I am going to be rolling this out soon. This kind will only be availible in half, and whole gallons, this willonly be availible with pre-orders. Let me know if you are interested

Intermittent Fasting - Daily Toast Imani 528171

Peace FAM: As usual we start off with the toast that goes on for a while, because I go into one of my rants about the importance of entrepreneurship in our community. I took time to salute my sister Ayisha for her creation of Almillikah Hair & Body Butter  (visit her site for more info). I have been saying that one of the major businesses that we need to take over in our communities is the "Ash business", there is no other group that uses as much lotion as we do and we need to stop purchasing these types of products from others. we need to turn this product into an engine for economic growth. If we just capture this one industry we would possibly create hundreds if not thousands of jobs, create trade relationships with African countries, and have money circulating in our community. We must remember that money is the blood of a community. As long as the blood is flowing in the body (community), the body is healthy, but if for some reason blood begin to flow rapidly out ...
