Whose Story Are You In?

  Whose Story Are You In? https://www.spreaker.com/episode/sovereign-soul--71852579 We talk a lot about building—building businesses, building families, building legacies. But have you ever stopped to ask if the "nest" you’re building actually belongs to you? In the week of Ujamaa , we often jump straight to the "cooperation" part, but today’s principle of Kujichagulia (Self-Determination) forces a difficult question: Can you truly cooperate with the Tribe if you haven't yet defined who you are as an individual? The tension is real. We are taught to fit in, to be "good employees," and to follow traditions that might be "magic birds" designed to keep us stuck in the past. But sovereignty isn't about doing more; it’s about shedding the noise so you can finally hear your own voice. Call to Inaction: "The bird does not add more feathers to fly; it sheds the weight that keeps it grounded." Stop for a moment and reflect: What "c...

Game Changers- 1Hood

Now, I knew that my brothers  +jasiri X  and  +Paradise Gray  were in Pittsburgh NationBuilding, but to see the video shines a long needed light on the work that they have been doing. These brothers have moved the concept of hood media to another level. By setting up an academy that arms young people with media and the skills to control their images, they have empowered a generation of thinkers that will definitely have a say in the direction are communities go in. I only hope other youth groups embrace the model and begin to use media to build the images that they want to see rather than be victims to the images that are being produced for them and the world to see. Media is the new front lines and I salute 1Hood for building our Special Forces. checkout the video: Watch "Game Changers: The One Hood Media Academy" on YouTube Nuff said Peace & 1hunidyears

Capoeria is an art that teaches you how to play rather than fight. Don't get me wrong you learn to defend yourself, but the vibe is different from other martial arts. In capoeria you view conflict differently, by you making it a game you are more willing to try new things. In trying new things the art becomes you as you develop your style of play. This feeling , this idea can't help but to come into your regular life. Your life begins to become your roda (ring were we play) and you are constantly in the game. Knowing the rules of the roda or life makes the game more spectacular as you do your moves, and take advantage of what is being given to you. i had to recently look at my life and remeber my training. Some time when life seems to become overwhelming I have to take advantage of the rules ...
