Are You Biting the Meat or Just Barking at the Bone?

  https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-scarcity-simulation--71177491 Are You Biting the Meat or Just Barking at the Bone? We live in a world that sells us a "simulation" of scarcity every single day. It tells us there isn’t enough room at the top, not enough money in the pot, and not enough love to go around. But what if the lack you feel is just a narrative you haven't scrapped off yet? On this day of Ujamaa , we look at wealth through the "Jaw of Abundance." If our "teeth"—our families, our businesses, our thoughts—aren't aligned, we can't break through the obstacles holding us back. Are you still trying to bite the meat alone? The tension of individualism is what's keeping the Tribe hungry. Call to Inaction "The one who eats alone dies alone." Stop the competitive grind for a moment and reflect: What "scarcity simulation" am I ready to cancel my subscription to today? What "mine" narrative can I release to m...

The Gina Gee Project "Cream Of Wheat"

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".

Game Changers- 1Hood

Image
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
