Some questions may make us feel uncomfortable but the more we avoid them the more we feed the beast! This is NOT an attack on the African woman but rather it is an honest pointer to reality as if we truly want to be PROUD of ourselves then we need to start being OURSELVES and we all know fully well that the wig is part of the dehumanization maintenance factor (irrespective of how we try to “justify” it) and it is something we all need to step back and do our bit to address. For those still in defensive denial let me ask ALL you females on simple question. If you were to see me walking down the street with my hair in James Brown “perm” or me having some horse tail wig on my head as a MAN WHY is it that you would be the very first to sniggle and giggle at me for being fool-hardy? Yet you justify the horse tail on your own head? There so many other ways to “beautify” yourself if you so need it:

Come on, it is time for us to face our own reality and genuinely stand up and be PROUD of WHO WE ARE, WHEN WE ARE, HOW WE ARE, and WHAT we are!

Each time I see videos like this I wonder how can we genuinely provide a way out for so many that are (often due to the legacies of colonial rule) just having their lives languish in a sea of stagnation and under-development. It may seem comforting to give “hand-outs” but the sad truth is their lives still go on and is and no real change ever occurs. There has to be a better way hopefully those in this community can come up with practical ideas as decades of hand-outs has not helped.

For Development to take place it needs people who have the CAPABILITIES/SKILLS to “fish” (so to speak) and NOT those who are recipients of “fish”. We need to figure out a way to do the one main thing our parents and grand-parents FAILED woefully to do and that is to SKILL the majority of the PEOPLE so that they are self-sufficient.

Sadly, many of our leaders at colonial independence LEFT THE CONTROL and SUPPRESSION infrastructure in place so and many even “strengthened” them belittling the people even more to make them totally subdued to near slavery. We need to REVERSE this trend and eliminate the legacy inherited MINDSET of seeing our own kind as “threats” to be controlled and subjugated and instead see them as ASSETS worth investing time, effort and resources into to get them up to a high standard of both thinking and DOING:

The business of Kings & Queens is SERVITUDE Africans do not want to go down the same path as their COLONIAL MASTERS that subjugated them let us learn form that past/history and actually CHANGE history for the better:

Sadly the way a person “Thinks” determines and influences their behavior:

Thus, “BELIEF” has nothing to do with right or wrong nor good or bad nor even Truth or Falsity yet so many people with under-developed brains are incapable of comprehending this reality!

A given “chair” may be colored blue but one can deeply believe that that chair is colored “red”. Thus, whether one “believes” that that chair is other than what it is, is actually irrelevant as the truth about that chair (in this case its color being blue) will always remain irrespective of the other persons “belief” that the chair is green.

Leave the domain of “Belief” for religions where there is a “NEED” to believe irrespective of truth and do not utilize “belief” in the domain of “TRUTH” where objectivity, methodology and verification is the arbiter.

Given that this platform is all about the uplift and development of those who have been labelled as “Black” it is our challenge to the community to figure out productive and meaningful ways to prevent in future the development of sub-optimal brains amongst our lot. Thus, the challenge is HOW then can we figure out a way to grow and nurture a new breed of African originated people globally who are devoid of such low-level thought patterns and thus help enhance their thinking capabilities so that they no longer become the very stumbling blocks to their own development.

This is one major stumbling block that both needs acknowledging and facing as it has been the bedrock of WHY so often we have found those who are labelled as “Black” sabotaging their own kind (and selling their souls for trinkets) in various ways contributing vastly to the under-development of their own nations and the fermentation of their own peoples thinking abilities.. Removing this sub-optimal way of thought is a much needed rescue to pave the way for positive and unified development of a people long over due for self-development.

Far too many times in my lifetime have I seen people seeking employment acting as if the one providing employment owes them an obligation to do so! This poor mindset is very annoying to experience as all and any job offer is merely a two-way contract. Some one wants something done and you on the other should have the SKILLS or capabilities to provide what the first person wants done that he/she is willing to go into an exchange with you for.

Unfortunately, more times than none the scales are tilted towards the employers favor as there are often thousands of applicants for every single job so the competition alone is heavy. When we as individuals fail to understand that we need to come with something tangible rather than merely “expectations” then we approach the two way interaction with the wrong mindset. Imagine an example of a person coming up to you to fill a carpentry role that you need done and that person when asked if he has any tools for the trade says NO and then expects YOU to supply them for him. This may be a simple example but it is an endless true story also.

NO ONE OWES YOU NOTHING AND IT IS WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND THIS REALITY WILL YOU THEN BE BETTER MENTALLY POSITIONED TO NOT LOSE ANY OPPORTUNITIES NOR ABUSE ANY FAVORS PASSED YOUR WAY. Each time you want the best for other that other often ends up abusing it simply because this simple fact here being explained has never occurred to them!

African Development can only happen when each and everyone of us understands and takes on, with dignity and pride, both personal and collective responsibilities rather than try to shelve them.

The Night or DARK that is tranquil and part of creation does no “EVIL” to no one as it is “HUMANS” who put EVIL into it: Historically the overwhelming atrocities and abuse of humanity has been done by European descendant people yet with nearly every statement you hear people of european descent use to “describe” these very evils always equates EVIL with DARK and GOOD with white….this is ludicrous and only goes to unmap the depth of the self-mental amputation of thought within european descendant people which was once pointed out by Brother Malcolm decades ago. (now do not misconstrue me I know there are a few European descendants who understand this reality and make an effort to avoid it so this is not putting everyone in one basket).

It is hard to listen to some one who seems to be saying something meaningful then suddenly spoils it all by such a callous looseness of tongue. Many people mean well but sadly they seem to be dominated by their own inherent senseless indoctrinated biases. Ask yourself what really doe sit take for a person to analyze their own thoughts remembering that they are not the only thing that constitutes humanity and thus should keep things real rather than sensationalizing them.. I personally do not have the answer to this particular question so I hope I can find pointers here.
