Let me tell you why you're here. You're here because you know something. What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire life; that there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it's there like a splinter in your mind...driving you mad. It is this feeling that has brought you to me. Do you know what I'm talking about? The Matrix. Do you want to know what it is?Now, read the quote again, but replace "The Matrix" with racism or white supremacy. This blog is meant to be the Black pill to help equip you with the knowledge (mental medicine) to critically examine the system in which you live...a path on the road to an Afrikan-centered consciousness. This is not about putting other people down. It's about elevating Afrikans all over the world, acknowledging our history, and taking steps to achieve self-awareness, self-respect, self-determination.
The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us, even now in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work; when you go to church; when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth...that you are a slave. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Born into a prison that you cannot smell or taste or touch. A prison for your mind. Unfortunately no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself.
This is your last chance. After this there is no turning back. You take the [white] pill, the story ends; you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the [Black] pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.
Remember, all I'm offering is the truth...nothing more.

Welcome
I think Morpheus from The Matrix can help me explain what this blog is about:
