Baby, Be Mine

Some things you don't overlook. You take them for what they really are and deal with them straight up. That's what needs to be done with Ms. Madonna as she moves to kidnap another Afrikan child. Our children are a commodity to people like her, nothing more than another of her expensive baubles.

While she might pretend she's only trying to help poor, helpless, orphaned Afrikan children, she's doing this for selfish reasons--and further working to destroy the Afrikan family. Most of the children within these orphanages are there because of people who look like Madonna. The only difference between her and them is that they're conscious of their main motive--destruction of the Afrikan family so that they can continue raping the continent and its people of their natural resources.

When she kidnapped the first baby from his homeland, she promised that she would maintain an ongoing relationship with the child's father. It's 2009, and this is the baby's first visit to his "biological" father, since 2006. Do the math.

But I can't fault only Madonna and people like her. Though they share most of the responsibility, I have to look at us as a people. There was a time when children in orphanages was a foreign concept to Afrikans. If a child lost its parents, or the parents were unable to care for the child, there was always someone else within that clan willing to do so. It took a village, and the village heeded the call.

With all the dis-ease, fraudulent claims of HIV, experimental vaccines and chaos that the european has brought to the Continent, the minds of its people are too cognitively disconnected to see the err of their ways. So, it is with that in mind, that folks like Madonna, Angelina and the rest of the beasts of the field, kidnap our children and "lower" them into european unconsciousness. When, if they truly wanted to help, they'd simply finance the "re-building" of infrastructure.

And like I said before, Afrika, along with all people of Afrikan descent, share in the blame. If Afrika was the united kingdom it could and should be, we would be ferreting those children to villages and homes filled with people who looked like them, taught them the values, traditions and cultures of their people, and loved and protected them as their own. Because that's what they are. They are our children. Our responsibility.

Every time we allow our enemy to kidnap them and lower them to their unconsciousness, we assist in the widening gulf that exists between what used to be us and what will be us. And yet we stand in amazement that our very own children have the least bit of respect for us. It's hard respecting cowards and those who will not take a stand.

Unless and until our children fully understand, respect and embrace their Afrikan heritage, evolution will be difficult, if not impossible. But, of course, their evolutionary process depends on us doing what we're supposed to be doing.

The Revolution Will Not Be Televised


Most of my thoughts for these blog postings stem from conversations with others. This one, in particular, confirmed something I'd known all along: the r(E)volution will not be televised.

I do owe Bro. Gil Scott Heron for bringing this to my attention some years ago. But it is only now that I can truly appreciate the brother's words. I'd also like to add a modern flair to what he said by adding that it won't be YouTube'd either.

It more than likely will also not be radio'd, CB'd, newspaper'd, iPod'd, iPhone'd, spoken in politcally correct conversation or amen'd in megachurches. But, what makes me grin from ear-to-ear, is knowing that the r(E)volution is and has been taking place.

For anyone upset that evolutionary videos, radio broadcasts, text messages, etc., are not making it through to intended audiences due to high-level Amerikkan censorship, rest easy, the r(E)volution will not be televised, will not be televised, will not be televised--but it's still taking place. ;-)

A Sense of Evolvement


I've got blogs. More than one, to be exact. So, why another? Because to different people I have different things to say. I also have different trains of thought that I want to evaluate. That means having more than one avenue for addressing them. In this forum, I get to discuss evolution in its greatest sense.

My people, Afrikan people, have spent recent years revolving, hence, labeling themselves as revolutionaries. I have come into the knowing that this thinking can be faulty thinking, as it does just as a revolvement is supposed to do--it leads us back to where we started.

I'm tired starting over by traveling the same self-defeating road. It's time for something new. An ascension. And I can't ascend on a spiritual, physical and emotional plane, if I keep revolving.

So, the word of the day, week, month and the rest of my life is simple: evolve.
