Truth Searching

While it is the time of year where the majority of people are exchanging gifts let us not forget about the people that are less well to do as we might be.Holidays bring together families that might come together as often on a regular basis.However,it is important to understand the deeper meaming of these holidays that we choose to celebrate.Many times we engage in rituals and traditions ,but arent aware of the origins and history associated with them.It is important to get in the habit of questioning things and searching for the truth to understand things on a deeper level.Everything has a point of origin and a source.When you have true knowledge of a thing or a holiday,then you will no longer be lead blidly by the actions of others who are ignorant and you will know what you are truly celebrating.Free your mind,search for truth and everything will fall into place.

The Art of Thinking

It is important and essential that reshape the way we think on a day to day basis.Our thoughts define our reality and determine the outcome before we even translates our thoughts into actions.We live in a society thatoperates off of fearfulness.Having enough money,worry about aging,,getting a job,finishing school,looking too heavy ,looking to thin etc are all examples and there are countless more.However ,we often equate genuine happiness with that which is outside of ourselves when in fact,the true essence of our inner peace resides in us.Thats right! We are often in constant pursuit of pleasure as we search endlessly for material wealth,high status and many other things.In this lifestyle,you will never be content because you will always be looking for the next thing to satisfy ourelves for a temporary amount of time.We become slaves to our emotions and feelings.We must be happy with ourselves first .We must love ourselves first.We must excercise control over ourselves and master our wordly weak pleasures and desires.We all have a beastly nature and a Godly nature,but success is given to those who tame there inner beast for the good of themself and others.We must be happy with who we naturally are and not be scared to think for ourselves.Many of our thoughts and impressions are generated by the tell-lie-vision,media and negative people.As a result, we have a distorted perception of reality.It is a process and each of us are not perfect,but we must make it a top priority to to know who we are so that we wont be strangers on our own flesh.

Your Natural Purpose

As we live our lives day to day,it is very pivotal that we do not forget that we have a natural God-given purpose here on earth.Everything in nature has a purpose.It was Socrates who said,"A Life Not Examining is a Life Not Worth Living."In other words ,whats the point in going about living your daily life if you dont know your purpose.You purpose is what will guide you and what you are accountable for when you transition to the next lifetime.When being on your purpose,it is only fitting that you will recieve nature's greatest reward.As you continuously discover yourself on more of a spiritual level,being on your purpose will bring you closer to God.Knowledge of self through knowing your purpose is like life's instructions as to what you are supposed to be doing.Many of us get caught up chasing the all un-mighty dollar bill that we forego our purpose.It is due to lack of our knowledge of purpose that numerous people arent happy and at peace from within.Instead,they find themselves stressed out and being a slave to money.As a society,we have not been taught not to look inside ourselves for our answers .Instead we have been given a more exoteric approach which means to look for an outside entity to come and do for us.I am not calling you lazy,however,if you have a question,all we have to do is to speak it out into the universe and the answers will find a way to us.When you are on your purpose like you are supposed to be you will be at peice with your calling in relation to the rest of the world .Your purpose can be many things such as ,singing,dancing ,serving others,emceeing,being an educator,cooking etc.It is your passion.Many people dont believe that they can financially sustain themselves on their passion alone.However,we must exercise faith and steadfastness,All we have to do is plan and then diligently follow the blueprint that we have laid for ourselfs and we will forever be protected by the almighty and our ancestors.Till next time,Im out!!!!.

Botanical Dieting

Whats up yall!!The topic of diet is sometimes a sensitive matter that alot of people do not want to be accountable for.At times ,many of us truly do not care and at times many of us truly would like to do better but dont have the PROPER information and guidance as to what strategies to take when it comes to a more botanical and natural diet.It is important that we educate ourselves on the proper way to take care of ourselves so we can prolong our our existence and feel better about ourselves from the inside out.First of all ,our "diet" consists of much more than just food.Our diet consists of everything that we digest and expose ourselves to.Our diet consists of what we eat,the music we listen to,what we watch on television,the people we hang around etc.Negativity from many sources can and will bog us down so it is good to detox at times and get rid of the negative influence to which hinders us from being able to elevate our well-bieng.What exactly is a botanical diet?A botanical diet is a diet that consists of plants ,greens and natural vegetation.Many of us are aware of the new phenomenon s nowadays with people turning to lifestyles of veganism and vegetarianism,many do not truly understand why these choices are so so beneficial to us.There is an old phrase that states,"You are What you Eat".If you consume animal flesh,then ,this heightens the possibility for you to become animalistic in your action.Animal flesh or meat is an enemy to the human body.How so?Well,many of us already are aware that animals are being cloned and injected with hormones,but there is more to it than that.Everyone can relate to Thanksgiving or anytime there is a family gathering and Moma cooks your favorite soul food dishes .Everybody enjoys the feast and you wish that you would never get full.Shortly after this enormous family meal,majority of those who were stuffing their face at the dinner table are now knocked out snoring taking a nap.This is not natural.The food that we consume is supposed to provide us with energy,not deprive us from it.The energy from the dead animal carcas if any is already gone by the time you end up cooking most of the ingrediants out of it.The truth is,whether we admit it or not,most of us are addicted to the taste of meat.However,we must remember that everything is mental and that if you free your mind,then your body shall follow. Your body replenishes its energy through live foods.Dont worry,you still can get All the protein you need in veggies ,nuts,beans and fruits.Meat eating is the primary reasing women have menstrual cycles .You would also need to make sure that you are taking the B-12 supplement on a daily basis as well.Studies have been shown that women who were on vegan diets experienced little or zero amounts of mentruation.In ancient tribes, women were prohibited from eating meat or anthing that bled.Meat also tends to cause inflammation of the mucous membrane of the uterus.ANYTHING that is natural is good for you.However it is a process and we have been consuming poisonous diet long periods of time.For many of us we have been consuming poisonous diets since we were a fetus in the womb.Change will not happen overnight but we must start from somewhere and plan properly if we are to be successful.Dont take my word for it, go just one week without consuming animal flesh and you will definitely be able to feel the difference.Symptoms you will feel are more energy and a sharper mental state.You will also be less lethargic with a natural euphoric feeling.Your spiritual essence will also be heightened and much much more!We eat so much more food that we truly need to.Many of us are programmed to just eat whenever we want to just because food is available to us.We should only eat when we are hungry and furthermore we are not hungry many times,but we are thirtsy instead.Many times,when we think we are hungry,it is really our body crying out for water due to us being dehydrated.So dont take my word for it,do your own research and you will see that natural vegetation through a botanical diet is the gateway to higher spiritual realms and a healthy body from the inside out.Take Care.Im out!!!

Energy

Have you ever met someone and they immediately went into the yes or no box???Your impression that you formulated about that person was based on the type of energy that they gave off.Energy cannot be created or destroyed and it is malleable.In other words,it takes on many forms.You can tell the "aura" of a person by the energy that their body gives off.We all have energy centers in our bodies from the base of our spine to the top of our heads.It is said that black people have 7 primary balls of energy that are aligned from the top of our head to the base of our spine.These energy centers are called chakras.The energy that one person gives off hits the other person in one of those 7 chakras.The lowest or "base" chakra is the chakra which triggers violence,sex and wordly desires.The top or "crown" chakra triggers your intellect and stimulates your spiritual essence.The chakras in between stimulate love and other emotions.So when you get into an argument or you listen to derogatory music etc,your lower chakras are being stimulated.The goal is to activate your higher chakras so you can tap into your supreme intellect and creativity.This science is known as tapping into your "higher self".People's auras or the energy people give off vibrate at a certain frequency.The higher the frequency,the higher the vibration,the higher the chakra that is stimulated.Dont surround yourself with negative people and negative things that give off negative energy because it is not healthy for the soul.Even if it does not feel bad,it isnt good for your mind ,soul and spirit and it can take a toll on you sub-consciously.So do positive deeds and stay close to positive energy and you will fare well.Peace and love until next time!!!!!!!!!

Death

The concept of death is one of the deepest concepts that people have bee continuosly attempting to make sense of for eons.Where do we go when we die?This is a question that religion attempts to answer and those without a religious preference have their own theories that govern their thought process.Death can be defined as no longer existing physically on earth .Many would agree with this simple premise,but how can a person who has never died be qualified to tell another person where they will go when they die?Life as we know it is a continual evolving ongoing process that is infinite and eternal.We are all energy sheilded by physical matter.Energy is something that can take on many forms,but it cannot be created or destroyed.It just always is.Our bodies contain energy which is electromagnetic which moves all throughout the body ,but begins at the core of our bodies.So the physical degenerates when we die,but our energy is ongoing and everlasting.In other words,our spirits are eternal.Is death the absence of life in the body?Who said we only live once?Life and death are a harmonious cycle and death is followed by rebirth.In order for something to be born,it must have first been dead.The best thing that we can do live life abundantly and we will have heavenly kingdoms in the afterlife no matter if you claim to be spiritual,religious or atheist.

Word Power

As we communicate verbally on a daily basis ,we must be mindful that words have power.The words that we use have signature on them of negativity or positivity depending on the intent and the words that we speak in the universe will come back to us.This is a law of reciprocity which is one of the universal laws of nature.Look at politicians,preachers,coaches etc.They are able to expire move people with nothing more but words.Letters are formed to create words.This art is called spelling and words can put spells on people.Whatever is spoken out will come back to you.So,remember to guard your words because eventually,they will come back to you because nit is the point of origin and the only source it kows.So take care and speak positive.

Benefits of a Diet

When it comes to dieting ,many people equate this common term with deviating from your normal eating pattern to take on a more disciplined approach to increase your physical health.Many people take a break from eating their favorite foods to take on a more healthy approach to food for a short interim of time.Many people decide to go on diets for numerous reasonssuch as to shed some pounds to fit in that perfect outfit and to cleanse the body of its toxins to name a few.However,we must remain mindful that dieting doesn't have to involve a change in your food eating pattern.Mental diets are also vital to sustain proper health too.A mental diet may involve ridding yourself of distractions and negative people that can stagnate your progress.A mental diet can mean not watching television and listening to the radio for a few days to concentrate on your own thoughts.It is sad to say,but many people cannot tolerate absolute silence.Every second of the day people are constantly bombarded with artificial information and noise which takes up space in your head so it will be more difficult for you to generate and reflect on your own thoughts.Many people let the media,radio,people and other external things define their reality and even though alot of times we do expose ourselves to factual information ,we often do not spend enough time alone with our self to get to know our self better.Afterall,you are around yourself more that you are around anything else.There is no proper substitute for knowledge of self.It is beneficial to free and liberate our minds on a daialy basis.This will actually strengthen our minds as we learn to use it more effectively.If we dont use our brain to its full potential ,then we are basically letting other people rent space inside of our head.As been said on numerous occasiions,a mind is a terrible thing to waste and if we dont use it,then someone else will.Take head and you will fare well.Peace and love to all!!!!!!

College Graduation

College presents numerous experinces where you gain wisdom from the many lessomns that are taught in and out of the classroom.We live in a society that stresses the importance of an institutionalized education.Many students and families are struggling with the the insurmountable problem of debt owing superfluous amounts of debt through student loans.Many students have discovered that that they owe more money in loans than the salary they earn on their job.After graduatiing,obtaining a job is not guaranteed.Shouldnt it be though?At the end of the day,what is "secure".Unemployment rates are constantly increasing and many students are getting a rude awakening once they experience how the "real" world operates totally different than how school prepared them.Many minorities often go through the process of school unaware of their natural history and are taught to embrace all cultures .This is a good concept,however you must first start with yourself and understand hwo you are before others.Getting a degree means that you have met the requirements that have been set in that particular major concentration.Graduation on the other hand exemplifies hard work,diligence,patience and commitment.It says alot about ones character and the relationships that have been aquiredalong the way should be cherished because good friends are better than riches.

Currency vs. Money

Whats up yall.I figured that in this capitalistic society where money is the name of the game,it would be good to take a deeper look to truly understand what money and currency actually are.Most people would consider them to be the same,however,those that think this are sadly mistaken.The difference between money and currency is that money is a true asset such as gold,precious metals,real estate(land) and anything else that is natural.The commodities were used in the past through a bartering system.Currency is what most people are familiar with which is cash.Now,cash is made out of paper and if you look on your dollar bill it will clearly state that it isn"t redeemable and that is nothing more than a note of debt .Even though you can go to any store and purchase items with cash.keep in mind that cash is or fiat money is nothing more than paper.This paper money that the federal reserve prints for the United States and charges the US interest on is not backed by anything.Whenever there is currency(paper money),it is not but so long until the value of it will depreciate.The value of currency is in its ability to be circulated.That's It.The value of the currency that we have now has depreciated because there inst that much in circulation.So next time you wear gold silver or a precious metal,remember that what you are wearing is real money and those federal reserve notes in your pocket or in your rubberband is nothing more but a note of debt.Peace.Im out!!!

Reality Show Madness

I dont know about yall,but I am so tired of seeing people degrade themselves on the tell-lie-vision as they expose their flaws to the world.From flava flave to New York,it is clearly evident to see the lack of guidance and ingorance displayed by the casts which are constantly amplified constantly on the tv.There is nothing real about having your life featured on a camera and disrespecting yourself for the world to see.It is sad,but I guess some people take this route to access an easy road to fame ,fortune and glory.However,there are too many ways to make money out here nowadys without selling your soul for temporary material possessions.

Black Black Women,The Goddess and Mothers of the Universe!!!

In ancient African cultures ,the royal blood was passed from Mother to child.This makes perfect sense being that humans get their mitochondrial d.n.a from their mother.What is even more interesting is the fact that in early Christianity the Black Madonna was held in higher esteem than Jesus.Speaking from my own experience .Gods miraculous power is evident everytime a women births another human bieng into existance.Many people often disregard that fact that women risk potential death when in the process of giving labor to children. Our children seem to over come the most savage situations and naturally maintain high "spirit energy" the same way their parents have and our parents before us.Nowadays,the female womb is constantly degraded and attacked.Ancient Africans had sex based on the movement of the stars because they were cosmically in tune with nature.They just didnt do it to just "because".Back then,everything was with divine purpose.We also must understand that the black woman's womb symbolizes darkness and everything that is created derives from blackness.Therefore it is safe to say that Black Women are some sort of vessel or gate way to the higher realms spiritually as they bring souls from the black spiritual realm into a new existence into the physical realm. That may be why they posses the highest mental, spiritual and sexual abilities compared to non Black Women. (No disrespect to non-black women)In ancient Kemet(Land of the Blacks and Kush (Nubia) our Women were thought to be the original heroes because of the chance of death during the Birthing process.Yet it was a necessary chance to take in order to allow God.As they say,ging birth is the energy that is closect to God.So black Women,always remember,you hold the KEY to the universe.Peace and Love!!!!

Will Congress Abolish Black History Month with the Help of President Obama??

Congress to Abolish Black History Month

WASHINGTON DC (NWSF News) -In a surprising bipartisan move, last week, Congress passed legislation to abolish Black History Month. If the bill is not vetoed by the newly elected president, Black History Month could soon be history.
The reason for the legislation is that after the election of this country's first black president, many Americans no longer believe the celebration of black history is necessary. Some even have gone so far as calling for a ban on the teaching of black history because they say it is divisive.
Although many white Americans, especially the Right Wing, have questioned the validity of a month set aside to honor one racial group, there are many blacks, as well, who would like to bid Black History Month a adieu. For some African Americans black history has been seen as a stumbling block; just another barrier that has kept them from enjoying their piece of the American pie. Many black people strive their whole lives to detach the word "African" from "African American."
"Ain't no need to be talking all that black stuff. That's just another way to divide us," says Carletta "CJ" Walker, owner of New City Beauty Salon in Atlanta. "We need to stop living in the past."
The problem of having to be African and American, simultaneously, has plagued African Americans since the Emancipation Proclamation. It is a paradox that WEB Dubois described as "a double consciousness" that black folks had to have in order to survive in a white dominated society.During the early 20th century, the issue was bitterly debated by those who wanted inclusion into American society like Dubois and his Talented 10th and those who wanted separation like Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association.
Later, during the 60's and early 70's there was a constant ideological war between the Civil Rights activists and the Black Power activists that personified itself in the forms of Dr. Martin Luther King and Malcolm X. Dr. King believed in a dream where all Americans would be treated as equals but Malcolm X envisioned a nightmare where African Americans would forever be treated as second class citizens.
For many young African Americans, black history has been replaced by a Hip Hop pseudo culture that has long abandoned any connection to black culture. Instead it has embraced a false ideology that music and fashion could end 400 years of oppression. Some of the rappers are even claiming that they are no longer black but they are "Hip Hop."
"I don't care what color a dude is. As long as he keeps it gangsta, he's cool with me," says New York City aspiring rapper Tyrone "T-Boogie" Johnson. "How is learning about black history gonna get me signed to a contract ?"
The disconnection of the youth can partially be blamed on an educational system that has helped to promote institutionalized white supremacy under the guise of preparing African American children to be able to make it in the real world. Any attempt to add Afrocentric studies to a curriculum by black teachers is often met with dire consequences.
CG Woods, an 8th grade social studies teacher in Jackson, Mississippi, recently was suspended without pay for instructing his students to read "How Europe Underdeveloped Africa" by Walter Rodney.
Some say that the lack of appreciation for black history is due to the fact that what is usually celebrated every February is not black history at all but the relatively brief history of black people in this country; a history of emancipated slaves. Few have paid attention to the rich history that African people had prior to 1619. This is mostly because the white corporations that have become the major sponsors of black history events have confined any discussion of black history to the boundaries of America.
Perhaps the people most affected by the end of Black History Month will be African American businesses, especially black book stores. Shaka Nzinga, owner of Black History, Inc, the world's largest distribuor of Afrocentric material has already announced that he will close his doors at the end of February unless business picks up.
Although, some African Americans have decided to allow black history to fade into obscurity, there are a few activists across the country who are not going out without a fight. They have started the Black History Bailout Campaign. The group is asking the black community to come up with their own socio-economic stimulus package as a last ditch effort to save black history.
Although the activists hope that the movement gains momentum over the next few weeks, as of yesterday the only people protesting in front of the Capitol were an elderly man with a Marcus Garvey sweatshirt and his young grandson holding up signs that said,"
"A people without knowledge of their history is like a tree without roots."

The Spiritual Connection of Women and Hair

Hair symbolizes much more than we think.For women,a good new hair do and a nice nail job can take a brand new outfit to a whole new level.However, women must be cognizant and mindful of the hazardous effects that can occur when applying toxic and poisonous chemicals to your scalp.Believe it or not,many of these detrimental chemicals enter through the scalp by way of the pores and control the way you think.The less ingredients a hair product has,the more healthy and beneficial the product will be for you.This is because the product is closest to its natural state and it hasn't been nuked or taited.Due to the fact that black women acquire spiritual strength from their hair ,to perm it and take it out of its natural state is detrimental to the scalp and the women's spiritual well bieng.When the hair is at its natural state it is at its strongest.When the hair is natural,it is coarse and circular.Many of us have been taught that natural means "nappy",however,the majority of natural black hair spirals in a circle.Spiral is the root word in the word,"spiritual".It is through the hair that blacks can recieve messages from the past that our ancient ancestors are trying to convey to us.A circle is 360 degrees and 360 degrees is the concept of infinite "Knowledge.In other words,you can never stop learning,but your ability to be able to learn is stunted from constantly overloading your scalp with toxic chemicals and blocking the communication with yourself and nature.It is also in the hair where their are high amounts of melanin and you already know what melanin does.If your unaware of the importance of melanin and what it does,then check out my first blog post entitled,"Sub-Hue man yet Super-Hue man".Peace Kings and Queens!!!!!

Agricultural Warfare

Industrialized agriculture has mutated and modified many so called “foods” today. Much of what we think is food, really isn’t food.Companies, factories and corporations have been able to capitalize off of patenting seeds and are producing genetically modified foods as opposed to food closer to its natural state. Many fast food chains and medical facilities are connected to the corporations who produce the food from industrialized agriculture .So, as more citizens become dis-eased from industrialized factory produced food ,it is the medical facilities of the very people who produce the food that they end up in.
As traditional farming was live and prospering, the government had to come up with a way to take the food into its own hands and control the way in which it was made and distributed. Many farmers are losing money and are struggling because in many instances the government is basically taking their seeds that the farmers have been so long trying to grow and patenting them. As a result, many different chemicals have been combined in labs to create new seeds all together, which ultimately produces newer more tainted food .The industrial revolution has not created more food.Instead,toxic chemicals, fossil fuels and other toxins permeate much of our food supply today Since seed saving is a traditional practice for many farmers in both developing and developed countries, GMO seeds legally bind farmers to change their seed saving practices to buying new seed every year. Farming, pesticides, nutrient runoff, excessive water usage, and other problems all play an important factor in the overall scheme of things. This is why it is important to take control of your destiny, and grow your own so you don’t have to be dependent on an outside entity to produce and manufacture your food. This way, you can control regulation and the nutritional content of your food too. With the rise in industrial farming, animal cruelty has been on the rise as many animals are being cloned, injected with needles and treated inhumanely .Out of this scenario, organic farming has surfaced which gives the consumer the most possible healthiest solution as an alternative to this environmental revolution. In the past, agricultural farming was a common everyday practice, but as society as a whole has become technologically driven, we have turned away from cultivation of our food and crops. It’s definitely time to turn back to the way of gardening and farming to continue to strive in the direction of good health and to be self-sufficient.

The Black Goddess...The Original Ruler

A few weeks ago ,I decided to visit the Walters Museum located in downtown Baltimore Maryland.I think museums are truly some of the most under used vehicles used to enhance your knowledge base .I try to absorb so much information whenever I go.Out of the many things that I learned and rediscovered was actually how beautiful the black woman actually is from the inside out.If many black women knew what great power and potential they really possesed,a whole lot of things in todays culture would be different.In ancient African times ,the woman was adorned and held in high esteem as a goddess even above the king .These are principles concepts that we have got away from in moden day times.It is dissapointing to see many women unaware of who they really are and what their natural role is.In ancient times,women ruled and governed the community affairs through a matriarchal system.I truly believed that if women governed the political arena there would be less wars.With society dominated by predomintely males ,the women have been suppressed, oppressed and excluded from their natural role as the rulers over society.

Sub-HUEman yet Super-HUEman!!!!!

Peace and Blessings to all out there reading this article.This is Sankofa from the Black Genius educational outreach program and I humbly greet you all.It is of utmost importance that we learn more about ourself because the education system does not emower us and there is an abundance of information and lessons that go untaught.For example,how many of yall out knew that black people had special superpowers??Thats right !!!Black people have special powers that take us beyond just what we can physically concieve with our senses.The key to this science is in the color pigmentation of our skin.What gives people their skin color is "melanin".Melanin is the key factor which determines your skin complexion.In the not so distant past,blacks were referred to as bieng "Colored".An example of this was in the 60's when segregation and Jim Crow codes were in full effect.Blacks were considered to be "colored" and people considered to be absent of color were considerd to be "white".Many blacks thought they were inferior because they were darker than the common standard of beauty which was to be white-skinned.Actually expressing that Black people are colored couldn't be any farther from the truth.In chattel slavery, the oversear and the slave master treated the slaves as less than a human through dehumanizing slave breaking and cultural conditioning .Blacks actually are sub-hueman,however this isn't because black people are inferior to whites,but its due to the fact that "black" isnt a color. The term "Hue" means color .Hue is somehting that black people can not be limited to .Black is the essence or source from which all other colors derive from.From black,every other color is formed.Nothing in the universe ia more powerful than blackness .What does this have to do with melanin??Well,the higher the amount of melanin you have in your body and DNA,the darker you will end up bieng.Melanin is the concentration of carbon in your body and can be found in the pineal gland which is located in the lower-mid section of the forehead and the head of the penis on the male.It was melanin that enabled Aficans to persevere through the hot temperatures of the equator in Africa and the extremely hot regions of other climates also.With the indigenous people bieng strongly connected to the sun and nature,spending large amounts of time in the sun was a form of nourishment for blacks as the the rays from the sun revitalized the energy of those whose skin it touched.The presence of melanin is what naturally makes you more in tune with nature.This was the essential reason why Africans were enslaved at such a higher rate than any other race of people .Africans were proficiently and diligently studied prior to bieng captured ,tortured and enslaved. It wasn't hard for the social scientists to see the wonderful agrarian ,agricultural and horticultural principles that were incorporated in everyday life.Europeans were not genetically apt to deal with the harsh conditionds of the sun due to lower level of melanin .Since melanin made blacks more in connected to nature,blacks could interpret messages from the past that the ancestors left to be past down from generation to generation.These messages were in various forms such as ,hieroglyphics,food ,stories ,songs,ceremonial rituals and much more.This connected those who were still living in the physical to those who transitioned to the spiritual phase of existence.In other words,this connected the past ,present and future.Melanin is the reason why blacks dance so eloquently and rhythmically as we absorb the sound waves in the atmosphere.Melanin alows blacks to taste full range of food differently too.Blacks could even make it rain when they danced.It was by this process that they were able to better cultivate thier land for harvesting and nurturing porposes.We can still tap into this special power if we properly activate the science that go along with the concept.So due to the absense of color,blacks actually arent colored since black is not truly a color or a "hue".Nevertheless, we are scientifically above and beyond being just reduced and contained just to words like "race","human" or even "color".There is a natural order to everthing ever created.Blacks are naturally more spiritual than non-blacks.This is not because all non-blacks are inferior,but its due to the fact that what makes you "spiritual" is your inner connection to nature or the source which is where all living organisms come from.Melanin biengs have the highest innermost connection to nature.So when we die,our soul returns back to the source from which we originated from.So next time,your watching a freestyling ,listening to your favorite music artist, or are dancing,remember that it was the super-hueman people that created these humanities.Peace....Im Out!!!!!!!!
