Conservatism, Reaction, and the Elder's Responsibility: A Message to My Age Grade

Conservatism, Reaction, and the Elder's Responsibility: A Message to My Age Grade Great Day, Fam. This one right here? It’s not for everyone. If you’re not at or approaching Eldership—defined in our tribe as about 55 years old and up—you might not feel all of this. But if you’re curious, or if you’re one of those younger souls already walking with wisdom, you’re welcome to keep reading. This message is for the Elders. For those of us who should know better. And yes—I’m including myself. Let’s Start With the Mirror I’ve got to confess something. I’ve been guilty. Guilty of being reactionary. Guilty of falling into the trap of conservatism. Guilty of romanticizing the past. Guilty of looking at our young people and calling them “soft”—as if we were born warriors, as if we didn’t have to become who we are through fire, failure, and guidance.

Gina Gee Project- Attack Of Tha Mosh

Image
Peace FAM: The project continues on, but the tension between the Gye-Nyame girls is building up. Gina setup a shoot, but in the middle of filming she walks out and leaves "Tha Mosh" alone with the camera. Will Ms. Shasha leave the camera alone or will she move on and complete the show. Tune in to my hilarious children as they continue create content for their viewers. Gina is determined to make her mark on YouTube, and her little sister is right on her tail. tune in and share this with the young people in your life, and maybe even give them the camera and see what they can create. Your babies may surprise you. To edit my projects I use Power Director for android, it is an incredible tool for making videos. For those that want to go a bit deeper with making YouTube videos with your kids Checkout Cyberlink's Power Director for your computer:

The Gina Gee project is a show that my daughter created. She saw me making video, and been watching YouTube​ and decided to do her own thing. For the last year she and her sister Ms. Shasha have been recording video using up all of my storage space, and figured that it was time to support her. Her first video is about making Cream of wheat. She in a dramatic fashion microwave her breakfast and teaches the viewer. I believe that when our children show interest and dedication to something we should support them. This might be a phase, but I am trying to use it as what our ancestors call a "lure to Mastery". I believe that our children need to be taught skills and in this video project she will learn, acting, interviewing, editing, and story structure and story telling. All these are transferable skills that can be used in pursuit of her life's purpose. Of course she will get a write-up from me on our site,  at least until she ( hopefully) starts writing her own accompa...
