Stop Chasing the Leaves: Why the Consumer Matrix is Killing Our Roots

Stop Chasing the Leaves: Why the Consumer Matrix is Killing Our Roots Let’s stop playing nice with the systems that are actively draining us. Everyday, we are bombarded with the toxic gospel of the hustle—told to stack another gig, download another finance app, and buy into external validation. We’ve been conditioned to trade our cultural inheritance for temporary, cosmetic luxury. We are out here changing our leaves to survive the corporate winter, but we are letting our roots rot in the process. The Amharic proverb explicitly warns us: "Don't abandon your foundation; even trees change their leaves but keep their roots." Our foundation is Ujamaa —Cooperative Economics. But we’ve allowed a predatory system to distort our vision, turning us into the ultimate consumers instead of the ultimate creators. Think about the old tale of the maiden and the magic fish.

The Gina Gee Project- "Let's Make Popsicles" Part 2

The most important thing for me is that they have fun, and continue to pull on their creativity. We had quite an experience with letting Gina, and Shasha pick out the juice for the shoot. After going through about 5 different choices we finally decided on the flavors that you see in the video. Shasha & Gina would like to thank their grandmother for coming up with the idea as well as providing the prop. Shots out to the adults that are supporting these young ladies dreams. I thank you a thousand times. Now the question that I am wrestling with is how to get the video in front of children eyes. if you have any ideas leave them in the comments. The Gye-Nyame Journey channel will be focused on developing the family entertainment portion. From this channel we will...
