3 R's

First off I'll like to start by saying Happy Kwanzaa. If you're reading this it's been a long ride to make it here. A lot of up's and downs but we're here. We are chosen to be here when we create our path and pursue our purpose we begin living. Staying in touch with your spiritual being. Remember we are spiritual beings having Human experiences. Kwanzaa =First Fruits and the Celebration of Kwanzaa was brought to us by one of our Afrikan brothers in the mid 60'. Reason being we were celebrating all of these white so called holidays and didn't and most of us still don't know the origin behind these holidays. We have to Re-think, Research and Read. Reading brings forward information, information is Knowledge and Knowledge is POWER.

Dont React -Reserch

Its been an interesting last couple of months, with the police killings. same thing took place last year and the year before starting around the same time. Now this has me pondering is there some secret code to destroy the Black man? Every week we are being murdered at the hands of the police. What is a police? One who Enforces the Laws and we must understand that the laws are meant to keep us (Non whites) at the feet of the Elite (White Supremacy).In order to fight back we must know how our enemy works.. As the elder Neely Fuller Jr. teaches us "If you do not understand Racism/white supremacy what it is how it works everything you think you understand will only confuse you" That's a blunt and up front statement that needs to be taken serious!

The Choice Is Yours!

With all of the tragedies happening all over the world today, we must gain a globe conscience. With all of the wrong that's going on in the Universe Nature will fight back on instinct. That's when you get frequent earthquakes, hurricanes, twisters, tornadoes etc. We rely on the T.V because we are so far from our natural self and or destroyed mentally. What does that mean? Logic comes with the Universe and being logical seems to easy because we have gotten use to everything being difficult. We cant control a natural disaster we have to be prepared and if "we fail to prepare we prepare to fail" We as Black people have to STOP being consumers. Another things we must acknowledge is that we have some control in all of the issue we find ourselves in as individuals or as a group. If most of the problems we face are man made who can solve them? Its imperative the we get ourselves together, that's the only way we can come together and have constructive results. It starts with the individual understanding and knowing he/she has a problem with SELF. Life is about solving problems and making choices, what choices are you making to solve these problems that we're facing every minute of the day with a known open enemy {White Supremacy}??

Lil Rock 9

As you may know White Supremacy /Racism is a global industry or as the scholar Mr.Neely Fuller jr says the only government. We must look at this as an on going attack on people of color especially those of us who are classified as (Black). Why do I say that because we are the continuous targets. We do not see black cop's killing white males or female. Why is that? For one white privilege would get that black cop's fired,no paid leave sentence to prison time just to make an example out of that black cop. Just like the black officers woman who made a Facebook post on how she felt about the two police officers murdering a innocent black male standing in front of a store sailing cd's.Suspended her who no pay for having an open opinion. The artist David Banner posed a good question last week. "WHO'S GOING TO STAND UP FOR THOSE WHO STOOD UP FOR US?? I read an article about couple of nights ago that made me reflect back to that question "who's going to stand up for those who stood for US?" It's was a group of teenagers most of them who were just entering high-school and took a stand for what they believed in and for Blacks to get an equal education.LIL ROCK NINE. They story touched me. If those children at the time took a stand why wouldn't i? "If you stand for nothing you'll fall for anything "

Another One!

"Reaching goals build Confidence." Another goal was reach during our back to school supplies give away. The goal was to supply at least 100 children and we supplied 108. There's a statement I love and believe in "Their's Strength in Unity!" SO I want to give thanks to All those who donated and the organization we connected with Kid's Glorified, The People's Collective and a few individuals. A special thanks to the members of UMSG.. ASANTE TEAM! !

B- August

This month is Known throughout the Afrikan communities as Black August. Black August is where we celebrate those who rose up for US (Afrikans in America). Who fought and Died for equality,Liberation and Justice. We (Afrikans in America )are the only group of non whites in Amerikkka that hasn't received any form of reparation. That's why Black August is important during those month and should be throughout the whole year but especially Black August we practice self-discipline AND self-mastery. We also promote education,Unity and structure that's Black Power. "Black August points to the ongoing failure to realize the promises of freedom and democracy that drove the civil rights activists of the 1960s." Through the works of those who seek equal opportunity and the passion to help rebuild the Afrikans not only in America but around the world. I pay homage and continue the work that was left undone. Jonathan Jackson, George Jackson, W.L. Nolan, James McClain, William Christmas and Khatari Gaulden were the founders of Black August..

Support The Youth!

Knowledge Is Kool

We Unconquered Minds promote knowledge. What is Knowledge? Knowledge is information and information is POWER. How do we gain knowledge, from reading and understanding. Thinking every situation through, we should become masters at thinking. Now here's the thing you should and need to know about thinking. It's a skill, you must practice and learn this just like in any sports. Logic comes with the Universe so through logical thinking we are at one with the Universe. Through nature you plant seeds and watch them grow. You keep the weeds and other things that would harm the plant from around the plant. Just like with your brain you have to help your brain GROW. LEARN the things that interest you even the things that don't interest you can be useful. Your Brain is like muscle help it GROW and become strong by exercising it.

Has anything Changed? ?

Wake up! This is the month they shoot guns and pop fireworks to celebrate their independence ( Whites). Well we as Black people haven't seen independence as a whole yet. There has been over 10 police killings this month sofar. 5 of them I seen on camera. All of the killings have similarities either they so call resist arrest or they was reaching for a gun so the police say. Thanks to those who are out there protesting for justice and human rights. Yes let your voice be heard. But what do protesting resolve? Where does it get us? Think about those questions. Here we are in 2016 we are doing the same things most of our ancestors were doing. Malcom x,Marcus Garvey, Medgar Evers, Martin Luther King Jr, Fred Hampton and that's just to name a small percentage. So what has CHANGED???? Just last year it was over 160 black men and women killed/murder by the hands of the police. Unarmed some where shot down like dogs some were found hanging in there jail cells. Those who was found hanging was ruled a suicide now who commits suicide for going to jail on a traffic stop or a misdemeanor period? Let's Think About it!!!

FREDERICK DOUGLASSJuly 5,1852 Fellow-citizens, pardon me, allow me to ask, why am I called upon to speak here to-day? What have I, or those I represent, to do with your national independence? Are the great principles of political freedom and of natural justice, embodied in that Declaration of Independence, extended to us? And am I, therefore, called upon to bring our humble offering to the national altar, and to confess the benefits and express devout gratitude for the blessings resulting from your independence to us? I am not included within the pale of this glorious anniversary! Your high independence only reveals the immeasurable distance between us. The blessings in which you this day rejoice are not enjoyed in common. The rich inheritance of justice, liberty, prosperity, and independence bequeathed by your fathers is shared by you, not by me. The sunlight that brought life and healing to you has brought stripes and death to me. This Fourth of July is yours, not mine. You may rejoice, I must mourn. To drag a man in fetters into the grand illuminated temple of liberty, and call upon him to join you in joyous anthems, were inhuman mockery and sacrilegious irony. Do you mean, citizens, to mock me, by asking me to speak today? What, to the American slave, is your Fourth of July? I answer: a day that reveals to him, more than all other days of the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is a constant victim. To him, your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciation of tyrants, brass fronted impudence; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade and solemnity, are, to Him, mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy—a thin veil to cover up crimes that would disgrace a nation of savages. There is not a nation of the earth guilty of practices more shocking and bloody than are the people of these United States at this very hour. At a time like this, scorching irony, not convincing argument, is needed. O! had I the ability, and could reach the nation’s ear, I would, to-day, pour forth a stream, a fiery stream of biting ridicule, blasting reproach, withering sarcasm, and stern rebuke. For it is not light that is needed, but fire; it is not the gentle shower, but thunder. We need the storm, the whirlwind, the earthquake. The feeling of the nation must be quickened; the conscience of the nation must be roused; the propriety of the nation must be startled; the hypocrisy of the nation must be exposed; and the crimes against God and man must be proclaimed and denounced.

Self-Mastery the power to control one's actions, impulses, or emotions. We as people who's classified as Black must learn this technique. As blacks 99 percent of the time we move off/on emotions, and where does that get us?? We have to become masters when it comes to thinking in order to beat the system. What's the system White Supremacy and most people are scared or just blind when the topic of Racism comes up. We said “Black Lives Matter” then they said “All lives matter” not disagreeing with them but if the statement/phase “Black Lives Matter” didn't appear we wouldn't have heard “all lives matter”. Saying that to say when we bring up black issues it becomes well what about white, midgets gays all poor people? No one Wants to address the issues black people have all around the world. As blacks we have to clean up as individuals before we can come together as one. Self-Mastery is the Key as well as self-discipline. We bless ourselves by helping someone else. Everyone has a purpose “The purpose of life is to have a life full of purpose, so give your life meaning"

Black Wallstreet aka Lil Afrika

In the early 1900's Afrikan so Americans was provident and very successful right after slavery was uplifted. Knowing that they had to do for self and each other they build & build communities. They communities was very successful and strongly dependent on one another. History and facts have it that the black dollars circled in the black community's at least 50 to 75 times before it left. But not even 20 years of success these communities like Lil Afrika were bomb and burned down. Why that's the question, why when Blacks decide we don't want to beg you or go to you for food and we want to create our own businesses and employee our own people that's a problem? Every other so call RACE can create and build /own there own but us Black Afrikan so call americans.

K.I.P.

We must understand Knowledge is Power and Information is Knowledge. But in order to use that power you must understand what is power. People can have knowledge but don't understand how to use the power of knowledge. No one can take what you've learned & what you know that gives you the power and control over your life. We are CREATOR'S create your own life.

Keep Growing!

As we grow we must learn that it's on us as individuals to continue to grow. Some might think it comes with ageing but for Truths it don't. We must continue to ask questions as a child would do when he or she wants to know something. Ask questions not only to others ask yourself questions. How much have I grown in the past year? Am I living out my dreams? Am I even in pursuit of my dreams? Am I setting goals for myself? Continue to grow. There a saying I love it goes "(You can change but don't grow, but you can't Grow and do not change")

The Chains R Falling

Conquered = meaning overcome , taken control of by force (people, places or things)

We as a people (Blacks) people have been Conquered slaved, beaten and used. As the founder of Unconquered Minds Association. me & my crew members are on a mission to Empower our people. Our moto is B.O.E.(Building,Organizing & Educating). Building by restoring lives, families and communities. Bring back community programs Tutoring, mentoring, supporting, creating, vibrating & elevating our youth, because we know they're the future. Organizing by unifying our people coming together with Love and showing compassion to one another.

Also bringing out their Creativity teaching them we all have the power to create. We also should never stop growing no matter if you are 4 or 84 there's always room to GROW.

I came up with the name Unconquered Minds when I sat down and realize what our ancestor went through (Africans)force into slavery. Victims of White Supremacy still today but able to Educate and seek self- knowledge to help bring us (Blacks) out of mental bondage is the goal
