Brothers Workin' It Out!

By



On May 29-31st,  the world will change. Brother-facilitators of AYA (Wekesa, & Osofo) will host a select brothers-only version of our powerful Warriors-Healers-Builders retreat.

 [REGISTER TODAY.  Payment Plans Available

No saber rattling. No grand speeches. You are already aware and motivated. Let's get to work:


    Wekesa Madzimoyo
  • Warriors:  To become better warriors - challenging the People  | Policies | Practices  that oppress and aggress upon us, our sisters, our youth, our families, our people and our community. **Choose your weapons.**




  • Healers: Our people have and continue to be wounded by European domination and other forms of oppression creating conflicts that damage family, personal, organizational and business relationships. Brothers, **We must heal ourselves** and drinking from the River of Touches, we must fashion every caring relationship into a healing one - for us and them.
    Osofo Kwesi Atta
  • Builders: While we fight and heal, we are also obligated to build. We must build: Families | Schools | Organizations | Businesses | Institutions. Beyond the technical know-how for each area, more than anything TRUST is required. Our enemies seed distrust. Neither running from it, naming it, explaining it, nor cursing it will turn it. We have tried too often only to play right into the hands of those who profit from our misery. **Come, learn to turn distrust into trust.**

Special brother's tribute to Our-Storian and Scholar-Warrior - Dr. Yosef A.A. Ben-Jochannan.
Doc Ben:

  • “Dipped in chocolate, bronzed in elegance, enameled with grace, toasted with beauty. My lord, she's a black woman."

  • “Without you, African mother, there would have been no us--African fathers, sons and daughters. Do we need to say any more African mothers, our own true goddesses! Let us praise you to the highest, telling the world about your righteousness. Let us tell the entire universe about your sacredness African woman.”
  • “Truth is a continuous examination, and Fact... always supersedes belief.”

White Images in the Black Mind - The Color of Christ and White Supremacy

By
Wekesa O. Madzimoyo Take a look at Roland Martin's take on the white Jesus issue. Here "To whom much is given....” This one is for my Christian family and friends who may have slipped back into the "color of Christ doesn't matter" thinking. I don't have this discussion much anymore. Dr. Yosef Ben Jochannan settled it for me 40 + years ago, and I've not looked back since. (Dr. Ben's link at the end of this post.) In fact, I've moved forward. But this post isn't about me or religion, per se, and it's certainly not about getting you to change your faith. It's more about "racial scripting" than scripture. It's about religion as a tool for white supremacy and the domination of our people - African people. It's about our believing that God's loves for us (and God's presence in us) is not dependent on us bowing to or ignoring images of white Jesus/God/angels. It's about us caring about the psycholo
