 Will? What's will? That's the topic of this week's episode of The Will & Ujima podcast! Will is something we all have inside us, but what is it really? The dictionary says that will is "the capacity to decide what to do." It also says that will is "the power to determine one's own actions independently of outside forces." So we have the power to make decisions for ourselves, and those decisions can affect our larger communities. Will can be a powerful thing, and when we work together, we can use our will for some pretty great things. We've seen it time and time again throughout history: when people come together in fellowship to work for a common goal, amazing things can happen. And the more people you bring together in fellowship with your common goal, the more amazing things can happen. So I'd just like to take a moment right now to thank you all for listening, and I hope you enjoy this episode! To get the rest of the article and the

Great Kujichagulia:  We are surrounded by fakeness. Fakeness in the media. Fakeness in the products we buy. The clothes we wear. The food we eat. And how about the people you interact with? Are people truly genuine, or are they simply putting on a show for others? What is true strength? What does it look like? With so much fakeness in the world, it has become essential to have strong individuals around us who can fight against it. Strength comes in many forms. There are some people with natural strength that seem to always do the right thing, while other people have strength that they earned based on overcoming obstacles. Everyone has an inner strength that lies dormant within them. Finding this strength and harnessing it can lead to a happier and more successful life by challenging yourself to be unique, not just for others, but for yourself.

  Poverty is not the lack of things, but rather the lack of a positive mindset. Umoja is an attempt to find a new way to think about ourselves and our relationships with each other, in order to create a society that benefits everyone. It is about being able to control your own mind, and choosing to make yourself useful, instead of demanding others provide for you. It is about forgetting what you don't have, and learning to appreciate what you do. It's about seeing yourself as part of a larger community, rather than an individual who's asking for charity. It's about working together as one people with one goal - and it begins with making yourself useful. Get the full writeup by joining us on our email list...

 The thing about faith is that it is invisible. It’s not tangible, but we all have it. Sometimes we need to remind ourselves of the faith we already have. When I was younger, I had a hard time with this. I wanted to know why things happened, and why certain people were born or died. And then I learned that some questions are better left unanswered. Faith itself is the shield around us that protects us from those things we don’t understand. Faith isn’t just about believing in something you can’t see; it’s about believing in yourself and never giving up on your dreams. It’s about fighting for what you believe in and staying strong when everything seems to be going wrong. On todays show we are going to discuss keeping the Faith, Come on in and join us....

  Creativity is how we process the world. It's a by-product of our existence and something we just do. It's also something that can be developed and honed to have a more profound impact on the way we interact with our surroundings. Creativity is often associated with artistic endeavors, but the most powerful creativity is one that goes beyond art. Tapping into your creative potential can be done in many ways. Some people take up hobbies such as painting or music to get them through life. Others take part in political activism and social movements. In today's show, I will examine creativity as an alternative tool with which we can confront institutions of oppression and exploitation, create new communities of mutual aid and cooperation, provide alternative sources of employment, and generate models for human development that are consistent with our high potential as a tribe.
