First of all I would like to say that I rarely watch television but now that broadcast like current are hitting the scene, I am so relieved! Media that in some ways have works against us and has suppressed creativity for so long is now taking a turn for the better. I think not only in myself but in many it has revived that small amount of faith that "we fight and refused" to give up!!! As I sit here I do what I can every day to help my brothers and sisters. This is a fight that is long from over but now we are starting to get even. We have to gain back the balance, there is no other alternative. I am a Mother of a beautiful three year old daughter and there is NOTHING I will not do for her and our world, the same goes for ALL of my family, because we are "ALL ONE TRIBE". Every form I have ever had to fill out for something when I get to the section that says RACE:, although the list has gotten a little longer over the years, is still lacking the word HUMAN for RACE!!!! It insults me, this system that has gone corrupt, insults me, my family. This world that we have been given and all the beautiful beings in it "WILL NOT" succomb to the "new world order" or whatever name you may prefer to call it, and our creativity cannot be meassured by your money! Commander and cheif...you could not afford an ounce of Saul Williams or many other profound artist creativity. True visionaries starve, but the see the truth. They may at times suffer, but they believe in what they are suffering for and know that putting so much of themselves into something, it will open a door for someone else, and they another, and they another, and they yet another. That is why we are here today. The piece that I have submitted titled "Horseman" is a depiction as I see, the Horseman shall not pass. Our collective conciousness "WILL NOT" let them pass. This is our world. God gave us free will and it is our choice, no matter how they try to silence us, we are always heard. And now they are trembling. REVOLUTION!!!!!!! Free your mind, love your brother. Yes since the dawn of time people have always had to protect themselves and watch your back, and get my back, but you know what, their (government) paranoia has gotten WAY out of hand. And they think money is power!!!! Well they loosen they power cuz the $ ain't worth much no mo!!!
HAHA!!! Sorry, but it's the truth. And my name ain't Judas.
Thanks so much for your time and at least I hope I made someone smile, and please,
let me open a door for you.
Have a wonderful and productive day,
Blessings always,
NAMASTE'
