Revolution

Peace and blessings to all!
On this journey of mine, I have seen, heard, and experienced much but what is now becoming more and more apparent, is the fact that the revolution has not come to fruition yet because the people have not revolutionized their minds. When one begins to speak about revolution, people in to think of guns, blood, and death and that is partly true. I will not sit here and say that any revolution that has occurred, such as the Haitian revolution , occurred without bloodshed. It most certainly did and it is necessary for people to attain the freedom they so desire. But, before that part of the revolution occurs, the people must have a total change of mind. The mind is a powerful thing. It has the ability to create our universe. But, until we can actually "see" ourselves free, we will not have it. Our people are slave to the ideals of our slave ancestors. They have lost all knowledge of self and any inkling of desire to be self sufficient. They are fearful of change and do not see any value in nation building or even having cultural pride unless it is Black History Month.
I am pleased over some of my brothers and sistars awakening and sharing knowledge but we must continue to push for more to awaken. We have to make every effort that we can to unify the people as well as unity is necessary for revolution. The task is arduous but it is a matter of life and death. Our children, their children, and all of our descendents deserve more . They deserve to be free and we should not look to the next generation to fight this fight. We are more than capable!

One last thought, in the words of Fred Hampton, "Why don't you live for the people? Why don't you struggle for the people? Why don't you die for the people?
