Conscious people are not grounded…most
live inside their heads. Many of their ideology is based on aspiration and not
reality.
I
understand why they thing the way they do from my own experience with that same
belief. I too, have heard about all the conspiracy theories…like presidents are
selective not elected, that both parties are the slave masters and people who
vote are choosing the better master…Now, don’t get me wrong, with all the mess
that has taken place in the government, I do understand the “stand-off-ness”
when it comes to politics.
These enlighten people believe if they just
fix themselves then the problems
around you or us will be fixed. (7 Laws)
I believe that, that is only half the issue. There is also this saying “I am in
this world, not OF this world”…but you are IN this world tho. Most of us have
some sort of physical activities like: your job, and your daily life…if you are
trying to buy a home, or if you are seeking a new job or traveling to other
countries or states…some form of politics is involved.
Spirituality
or Spiritualism has turned into a religion
and damn near a cult…with this group think atmosphere. Many have used this “hidden
knowledge path” as a shield or tool to not be involved in their communities and
to flee those same communities, believing it’s some sort of “Jefferson’s”
success.
It
is easy to say “the government ain’t neva’ gonna do anything for you.” OR the “white
man” is this or that…my favorite is “you just are food for the establishment
and those energies are feeding off you”…
The
government is not your daddy! You have to demand inclusion…
Sitting
back complaining (key board warriors)), or lighting candles during the
full-moon is laziness…
Prayer without action is noise...
When
Social Security came out in the 1930’s African Americans, black folk, were not
included in the plan..
In the social security act of 1935 might never have passed without the support from the 141 Democrats from the southern states…many of the Democrats only supported the bill after it got tweaked in committee, so that it excluded farm workers and maids, which represented two-thirds of black workers in the south. ((source))
We fought to be included.
Almost three-fourths (72 percent) of
African American beneficiaries rely on Social Security for at least half their
income, compared to less than two-thirds (65 percent) of all beneficiaries.
Almost 50 percent of African American beneficiaries rely on Social Security for
90 percent or more of their income. ((source))
It
is important to advocate for self not only in the outer- worlds, with libations,
honoring the ancestors, and always in healing self…
However ;on this realm, you must also advocate for self, yet understand that there are
others who have that same understanding that “we” can come together and FOCUS on tangibles from our government, that we can demand reparations and redress and demand trans-formative policies to repair the
racial wealth gap that is destroying our communities…
And you can still...just be
