THE FIRE OF YOUR IMAGINATION

  THE FIRE OF YOUR IMAGINATION https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-fire-of-your-imagination--71403205 Are you tired of the "hustle culture" that tells you to keep adding more to your plate? Today, we look at Kuumba differently. We aren't looking for more tasks; we are looking for the fire. There is a "lion" at your door—a problem that seems too big to handle. But what if the answer isn't a bigger weapon, but a thinner thread? We’re discussing how the union of small, creative acts can bind the giants of our lives.

Call to Inaction: The fire only rises when the ash is cleared. Release the need to be the "source" of everything. Stop trying to create from a place of clutter.

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.

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.
