Brief History of the Black Panther Party Free Breakfast Program for Youth

Before the Head Start program and the US government provided breakfast at school, there was a program  initiated at St. Augustine’s Church in Oakland. By the year’s end it spread to cities nationwide, feeding over 10,000 children everyday before school. The reason was simple, children who have a nourishing breakfast every morning learn better.
  

In January, 1969, The Black Panther Party for Self-Defense launched the Free Breakfast for Children Program. Their motto was “Serve the People, Body and Soul.”




Panther Jerry Dunigan, known as “Odinka”, serves breakfast to children at Panther Free Breakfast Program


“…If you read the FBI files you will see that even Mr. J. Edgar Hoover himself had to say that it was not the guns that were the greatest threat to the internal security of the United States of America; it was not the guns, it was the Free Children’s Breakfast Program that was the greatest threat to the internal security of the United States of America. Grits. Now why was it the Free Children’s Breakfast Program?
It was the Free Children’s Breakfast Program because the Free Children’s Breakfast Program engendered a certain following on the Black community’s part, a certain respect on the Black community’s part. I mean, nobody can argue with free grits. So Hoover saw it as a kind of… infiltration.
That’s ridiculous isn't it? Infiltration? How are Black people, who are born and raised in the Black community, who live and work in the Black community, going to infiltrate their own Black community? If anybody’s infiltrating I think its J. Edgar Hoover.” -Roger Guenveur Smith, A Huey P. Newton Story

 One of the children they fed would grow up to be Public Enemy front-man, Chuck D.

It marked not only the first program of its kind in the US, but indicated a sharp shift in the political direction of the Black Panther Party. For its first few years the Party had been focused on Voting Rights, armed self defense, and Self patrolling our own neighborhoods, while patrolling the police. The shift toward survival programs was caused by multiple factors. The arrest and death of party militants, the inadequacy of community based services in their neighborhoods, and seeing the need to connect more deeply and practically with the community. Not without internal struggle, the Black Panther Party moved, in the words of scholar Alondra Nelson, "From Self Defense to Self Determination".

"The food component of the BPP was a big part of our organizing, this included our free breakfast program.. Because one thing you can guarantee in an oppressed community, is that you're going to find hunger. The fact the United States has more food than we need, and folks are still going hungry is a shame, it was a shame then, and it's a shame now."
Melvin Dickson –Organizer for free meals program for the Black Panther Party in East Oakland

The work became so effective, it drew the ire of the director of the FBI:
"The BCP (Breakfast for Children Program) promotes at least tacit support for the BPP (Black Panther Party) among naive individuals .. . And, what is more distressing, provides the BPP with a ready audience composed of highly impressionable youths.. . . Consequently, the BCP represents the best and most influential activity going for the BPP and, as such, is potentially the greatest threat to efforts by authorities to neutralize the BPP and destroy what it stands for. "
J Edgar Hoover, May 15, 1969

The mass potential of the Free Children’s Breakfast Program that was so empowering to these happy children. This was a big threat to the head of the FBI… deep. It’s also why J. Edgar Hoover was so obsessed with Dr. King and his ability to have a message and actions with mass appeal, that could unite the Black People. What is radical is to unite Black people in a mass way, empower grassroots people to have the hope to connect after the daily oppression has ground us down–and to keep coming back. Some original Black Panther Party members in NYC are still keeping on today, and organizing, and uniting, to just l-o-v-e being Black!







Tam Babies of the Black Panther Party's Free Breakfast Program
the same conditions of city and private harassment and infiltration that tore the Panthers apart, also prevented their social programs from being sustained. As their programs folded, some ideas, like the Breakfast program were taken up by the state and institutionalized, like Head Start.
The Black Panther concept of "revolutionary intercommunalism" involved the strategy of building community service programs or "survival programs", meant to develop Black autonomous, non religious, positive institutions within neighborhoods to help individuals meet their needs. The Panthers developed over 60 such community programs.
The Panthers focused their attention on the construction of institutions that provided for the communities needs. Because they knew the state and local religious institutions' response would be inadequate or non-existent, because it was an arena to politicize Black people, and because they were interested in the development of a new society.

"All these programs satisfy the deep needs of the community but they are not solutions to our problems. That is why we call them survival programs, meaning survival pending revolution. We say that the survival program of the Black Panther Party is like the survival kit of a sailor stranded on a raft. It helps him to sustain himself until he can get completely out of that situation. So the survival programs are not answers or solutions, but they will help us to organize the community around a true analysis and understanding of their situation. When consciousness and understanding is raised to a high level then the community will seize the time and deliver themselves from the boot of their oppressors. If they have a need we will serve their needs and attempt to get them to understand the true reasons why they are in need in such an incredibly rich land."
To Die for the People (Book of essays) – Huey Newton

This concept centered on Black Autonomy and self-determination, Black people getting themselves organized together so that they could survive outside the religious, education, and Negro institutions that are tied to municipal, state or federal systems, which are already under-servicing the Black people. It was not a new idea: minority communities across America had done this in previous decades to support new immigrants through communal associations and political machines.

I’m reminded of Angela Davis’ words about meeting the people’s needs where they are otherwise they will never listen to you. This program made a real difference in people’s lives and few things are more noble than making sure children are healthy and fed. I agree, this serves as a real lesson about what is radical and threatening to the system that oppresses us all.

Black Matrix by Franklin Jones

When seeing is believing those that controls the programming we see also controls what we believe. Because it is the white elites that control almost exclusively all media programming this allows them to therefore covertly form and or influence the perceptions of Black people. This in fact allows them to inaccurately tell Black people who they are.

Presently Black people are seeing themselves through lenses that have been deliberately assigned to them by white mass manipulation social engineering experts. Because the past, blatant methods used for ensuring the continuance of White dominance from the reconstruction period through the 1960's had become morally and socially unacceptable this required that America’s White ruling elites develop a more sophisticated and stealthy system—a method better suited for changing times.

As a means of protecting the established position of white dominance
Black people are being constantly and deliberately bombarded with fraudulent derogatory misinformation about themselves that are intended to instill the myth of white superiority (and black inferiority) into the collective black conscious. It also turns (socially engineers) many Black people into acting and dressing as caricatures that reinforces resentment and anti black prejudicial perceptions. Black people become those caricatures of the stereotypes they accept.

This is not a frivolous attempt to absolve our race of our own responsibilities by peddling victim-hood and wrongly blaming the white man. This is a profound truth. The thoughts, opinions and collective self images of Black people are being greatly influenced and covertly formed by white media social engineering experts. Through their media driven programs developed by social scientist and propaganda experts it is the white ruling elites that are telling Black people everything about themselves on a national level.

Most of us believe that the national media reflects are reality, but it is in fact rarely ever the case the media most often forms our reality. The national media shapes our values and influence our perception of the world and of our collective selves. Media social engineering is a fact and practice that the ruling white elites have well researched and used for many years. During the 1950's through 60's as the popularity of the television grew this social engineering program really took off as more Americans became glued to their television shows .

Social norms promoted by media can influence the way of thinking and the “cognitive map” of the populated audience. People are like a computers, all you have to do is keep giving them certain information every so often and you can persuade an entire country or nation towards an implied objective. Because perceptions created by the media leads to non-deliberate thoughtful decision-making or decision below the level of consciousness. It has been called "thinking without thinking", and it ultimately leads to unconscious similar behaviors.

It doesn't matter if the information is true or not most will agree because they too have been given the same information. This mean that they that control the national media also controls the collective brainstem of our society. It also means that the media can be used to create cultural and social norms, form values, and perceptions within targeted populations.

As means of protecting the United States position of white dominance a media driven psychological warfare program has been implemented targeting its entire Black population. The U.S. media’s constant racially devaluing depictions and distorted portrayal of its Black population, that amplifies the negative to the point that it distorts reality is more than just biased media reports. They function as part of a carefully crafted, deliberately designed Black debasing ideological subversion psychological warfare program.

Presently the reality among African Americans are not entirely their own making; it is a false reality and the daily, weekly monthly and yearly reinforcements of that false reality is being carefully covertly crafted and applied by white media social engineering experts. This psychological warfare program is deplored like a massive domestic marketing campaign that marginalizes the Black brand while exemplifying the white brand. This program disseminates false Black racially devaluing propaganda (from trusted white media sources) that are intentionally designed to adversely manipulate and shape the collective minds and
consciousness of its targeted Black population. Its Black demeaning propagandizing TV documentaries and fake news reports are designed to frame the myth of Whites’ racial, moral, and intellectual superiority over its Black population.

The daily assault of this conditioning upon the Black psyche is purposefully designed creates internalized feelings of self-contemptuous responses within its Black population that hinders their (Black) unity, upward mobility. Furthermore, it breaks down African Americans’ sense of racial unity and allegiance, mold the character of self-hatred, engender self-doubt, self-loathing, and distrust among their group. Its deplorable black depictions also instills the myth of white superiority into the minds of Black people. And implies that Black people should respect and trust only whites. It in fact conditions Black people to not only accept white dominance over their lives, but to in fact prefer it.

This psychological warfare program also socially engineers many Black people into acting and dressing as caricatures that reinforces resentment and anti black prejudicial perceptions.

The white controlled media tells our Black youths what is cool and trendy and our youths then imitate it as being their own create style. It rarely ever is. When doing so they deliberately create or find those images and style of dress that reinforces many negative and racist stereotype about Black America. They then perpetuate it in the media (magazines, rap videos, movies, TV shows, ads etc..) as being a cool cultural norm. Because these racially devaluing images are being made to appear cool our impressionable Black youths then imitates it becoming clones of the behavior and style of dress. They become those caricatures of the stereotypes they accept.

Those that controls the programming we see also controls even how we dress. One such example that makes this point is the ridiculous sagging pants style of dress that became the stupid phenomena that is. Although the style of dress was originally used by homosexual inmates to solicit their sexual services to other inmates. The media was very instrumental in creating this phenomenon. Most of our Black youths that are wearing their pants in this manner are not aware of this homosexual prison origin. Most became introduced to the ridiculous style of dress by way of the white controlled media. The media glorified the buffoonery of the sagging pants as being something cool and trendy. The image was perpetuated in rap videos, movies and billboard ads. Many of our Black youths then imitated the style of dress once it was made to appear trendy.

The Nigger Campaign:

A crowning achievement of the white media social engineering experts is that they took the word of nigger (a words once deemed offensive and reviled by millions of Black people) and yet convinced millions to favorably refer to themselves as being niggers.

This word was reviled by African Americans for more than 400 years. Understandably because this derogatory word was often the sole justification for the rapping's, lynchings, castrations and enslavement of millions of our ancestors.

However, in spite of this brutal history to the contrary the word is now favorably used by millions of Black people . The reason for such a phenomenal contradiction is due to media social engineering. Up until the late 1950's through early 1960's the words was viewed unfavorably by most African Americans. Its usage was in fact often forbidden with in many African American homes.

However many of our Black youths, being young and impressionable, began using the word once it was made to appear trendy and cool within the black exploitation films of the 60's and 70's.

By using black naïve actors to recite the words from scripts written by whites and films made by white companies. It was that era's Black exploitation films that first taught African Americans on a national level to refer to themselves as niggers.

Presently the types of Black people that refers to themselves as Niggers are the types that have bought into the falsehood-intentionally perpetuated through the white controlled media--that it is now "our own" word.
Moreover, that the word is now an empowering form of privilege that only we can say. It is not!

Under the disguise of being cool and empowering--followed by a cool upbeat musical track, and the exploitation of naïve Black rap artists the white ruling class have socially engineered many Blacks to believe that we are niggers/nigga's

To the detriment of many Black people, this applied psychological conditioning has been an extremely effective. It has successfully conditioned many African Americans to not only refer to themselves as being niggers but to also perceive it as being cool, trendy and empowering. It is in fact non of these things.

Given how hard that Black people have fought to burry that ugly word and to be treated with respect and dignity, it's amazing how hard some Black people will now argue with a person for telling them why the word is offensive . This is a testament to the immense power of social engineering.

This same psychosocial program is being done to Black women in regards to the word bitch. The words is being turned into a cool word of empowerment as "I'm a Bad Bitch". Now we're seeing young teenage girls listening and dancing to music favorably using the term of bad bitch. By making it appear cool and putting it in our music it makes our impressionable daughters insensitive to the term then they eventually start using it to describe themselves.

Our thoughts are important part of our inner wisdom and they are powerful. A thought held long enough and repeated often enough becomes a belief. A belief becomes your biology."
--Dr. Christians Northrupt

Throughout western history empires that maintain power have done so by manipulating the people that they are trying to conquer. They go out of their way to make sure that the people that they’re attempting to conquer are perpetually misled and manipulated. Therefore the conquered group’s perception of reality is not their own. It is a perception shrewdly imposed upon them without them even knowing it. This is precisely what is being done to black people. Because whites control all media programming this allows them to covertly influencing the thinking of we Black people.

Lil' Bobby Hutton Strong Black Brother Sun

In 1968, two days after Dr. Martin Luther King was murdered, Little (Lil’) Bobby Hutton was shot and killed while in the custody of the Oakland police. He was shot more than ten times.

Lil’ Bobby Hutton became one of the first members of the Black Panther Party, after writing and finalizing the Ten Point Program. In fact Bobby Hutton was a part time afterschool assistant at the North Oakland Neighborhood Service Center, for the Department of Human Resources for the City Government of Oakland, California. Hired as a youth assistant, he studied the introduction of the Autobiography of Malcolm X to improve his reading skills.

Lil’ Bobby Hutton was 1 of 30 Panthers who traveled to the California state capitol in Sacramento, on May 2, 1967, to demonstrate against the Mulford Act, a bill that would prohibit carrying loaded firearms in public. The group walked into the state assembly armed, as a protest to the Mulford Act. Lil’ Bobby Hutton Hutton, Bobby Seale and several of the Panthers were then arrested.

Lil’ Bobby Hutton was the first Black Panther Party member murdered (while in the custody of the Oakland police). During the inquest on Lil’ Bobby Hutton, one police person surprised the inquest by testifying that the other cops had literally "murdered Bobby Hutton" after Lil’ Bobby Hutton had surrendered. Lil’ Bobby Hutton walked out with his hands up and in between several policemen. One cop used his foot to shoved Bobby Hutton in the back saying "run nigger." Lil’ Bobby Hutton, put his hands up, stumbled forward a few steps and some five policemen all open fire, shooting and murdering Lil’ Bobby Hutton. Lil’ Bobby Hutton's death at the hands of the Oakland police was yet another example of police brutality committed against the Oakland community and the Black Panther Party.

Hutton's funeral was held on April 12 at the Ephesians Church of God in Berkeley, California. About 1,500 people attended the funeral. A rally held afterwards in West Oakland was attended by over 2,000 people.

DeFremery Park in West Oakland, California was unofficially named after Lil’ Bobby Hutton not long after his death. "Lil' Bobby Hutton Day" has been held annually at the park since April 1998. Organized by family members and former and former Black Panther Party members, the memorial event features speakers, performers, and art works commemorating Hutton's dedication to the party.

Yes, we need to remember and honor Panthers like Lil’ Bobby Hutton , who lost there lives working for the Black Panther Party, one of the first organizations in U.S. history to militantly struggle for ethnic minority and working class emancipation - a party whose political electoral agenda was the revolutionary establishment of real economic, social, and political equality across gender and color lines. We also need continue to work that the original Black Panther Party began. We must continue build and maintain strong, vibrant progressive movements through local, state and national progressive political representation & activism which will continue the work for greater people empowerment

Bobby Seale

Power To The All The People!

Frederick Douglass on the 4th of July

Entire Frederick Douglass Speech on the Fourth of July, delivered July 5, 1852 in Rochester New York

(Note particularly the last paragraph)

"Fellow citizens, pardon me, and allow me to ask, why am I called upon to speak here today? 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?

Would to God, both for your sakes and ours, that an affirmative answer could be truthfully returned to these questions. Then would my task be light, and my burden easy and delightful. For who is there so cold that a nation's sympathy could not warm him? Who so obdurate and dead to the claims of gratitude, that would not thankfully acknowledge such priceless benefits? Who so stolid and selfish that would not give his voice to swell the hallelujahs of a nation's jubilee, when the chains of servitude had been torn from his limbs? I am not that man. In a case like that, the dumb might eloquently speak, and the "lame man leap as an hart."

But such is not the state of the case. I say it with a sad sense of disparity between 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? If so, there is a parallel to your conduct. And let me warn you, that it is dangerous to copy the example of a nation (Babylon) whose crimes, towering up to heaven, were thrown down by the breath of the Almighty, burying that nation in irrecoverable ruin.

Fellow citizens, above your national, tumultuous joy, I hear the mournful wail of millions, whose chains, heavy and grievous yesterday, are today rendered more intolerable by the jubilant shouts that reach them. If I do forget, if I do not remember those bleeding children of sorrow this day, "may my right hand forget her cunning, and may my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth!"

To forget them, to pass lightly over their wrongs and to chime in with the popular theme would be treason most scandalous and shocking, and would make me a reproach before God and the world.
My subject, then, fellow citizens, is "American Slavery." I shall see this day and its popular characteristics from the slave's point of view. Standing here, identified with the American bondman, making his wrongs mine, I do not hesitate to declare, with all my soul, that the character and conduct of this nation never looked blacker to me than on this Fourth of July.

Whether we turn to the declarations of the past, or to the professions of the present, the conduct of the nation seems equally hideous and revolting. America is false to the past, false to the present, and solemnly binds herself to be false to the future. Standing with God and the crushed and bleeding slave on this occasion, I will, in the name of humanity, which is outraged, in the name of liberty, which is fettered, in the name of the Constitution and the Bible, which are disregarded and trampled upon, dare to call in question and to denounce, with all the emphasis I can command, everything that serves to perpetuate slavery -- the great sin and shame of America! "I will not equivocate - I will not excuse." I will use the severest language I can command, and yet not one word shall escape me that any man, whose judgment is not blinded by prejudice, or who is not at heart a slave-holder, shall not confess to be right and just.

But I fancy I hear some of my audience say it is just in this circumstance that you and your brother Abolitionists fail to make a favorable impression on the public mind. Would you argue more and denounce less, would you persuade more and rebuke less, your cause would be much more likely to succeed. But, I submit, where all is plain there is nothing to be argued. What point in the anti-slavery creed would you have me argue? On what branch of the subject do the people of this country need light? Must I undertake to prove that the slave is a man? That point is conceded already. Nobody doubts it. The slave-holders themselves acknowledge it in the enactment of laws for their government. They acknowledge it when they punish disobedience on the part of the slave. There are seventy-two crimes in the State of Virginia, which, if committed by a black man (no matter how ignorant he be), subject him to the punishment of death; while only two of these same crimes will subject a white man to like punishment.

What is this but the acknowledgment that the slave is a moral, intellectual, and responsible being? The manhood of the slave is conceded. It is admitted in the fact that Southern statute books are covered with enactments, forbidding, under severe fines and penalties, the teaching of the slave to read and write. When you can point to any such laws in reference to the beasts of the field, then I may consent to argue the manhood of the slave. When the dogs in your streets, when the fowls of the air, when the cattle on your hills, when the fish of the sea, and the reptiles that crawl, shall be unable to distinguish the slave from a brute, then I will argue with you that the slave is a man!

For the present, it is enough to affirm the equal manhood of the Negro race. Is it not astonishing that, while we are plowing, planting, and reaping, using all kinds of mechanical tools, erecting houses, constructing bridges, building ships, working in metals of brass, iron, copper, silver, and gold; that while we are reading, writing, and ciphering, acting as clerks, merchants, and secretaries, having among us lawyers, doctors, ministers, poets, authors, editors, orators, and teachers; that we are engaged in all the enterprises common to other men -- digging gold in California, capturing the whale in the Pacific, feeding sheep and cattle on the hillside, living, moving, acting, thinking, planning, living in families as husbands, wives, and children, and above all, confessing and worshipping the Christian God, and looking hopefully for life and immortality beyond the grave -- we are called upon to prove that we are men?

Would you have me argue that man is entitled to liberty? That he is the rightful owner of his own body? You have already declared it. Must I argue the wrongfulness of slavery? Is that a question for republicans? Is it to be settled by the rules of logic and argumentation, as a matter beset with great difficulty, involving a doubtful application of the principle of justice, hard to understand? How should I look today in the presence of Americans, dividing and subdividing a discourse, to show that men have a natural right to freedom, speaking of it relatively and positively, negatively and affirmatively? To do so would be to make myself ridiculous, and to offer an insult to your understanding. There is not a man beneath the canopy of heaven who does not know that slavery is wrong for him.

What! Am I to argue that it is wrong to make men brutes, to rob them of their liberty, to work them without wages, to keep them ignorant of their relations to their fellow men, to beat them with sticks, to flay their flesh with the lash, to load their limbs with irons, to hunt them with dogs, to sell them at auction, to sunder their families, to knock out their teeth, to burn their flesh, to starve them into obedience and submission to their masters? Must I argue that a system thus marked with blood and stained with pollution is wrong? No - I will not. I have better employment for my time and strength than such arguments would imply.

What, then, remains to be argued? Is it that slavery is not divine; that God did not establish it; that our doctors of divinity are mistaken? There is blasphemy in the thought. That which is inhuman cannot be divine. Who can reason on such a proposition? They that can, may - I cannot. The time for such argument is past.

At a time like this, scorching irony, not convincing argument, is needed. Oh! had I the ability, and could I reach the nation's ear, I would today pour out 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, and 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 its crimes against God and man must be denounced.

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 the 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 shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mock; 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 which 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.

Go search where you will, roam through all the monarchies and despotisms of the Old World, travel through South America, search out every abuse and when you have found the last, lay your facts by the side of the everyday practices of this nation, and you will say with me that, for revolting barbarity and shameless hypocrisy, America reigns without a rival.

Afrikan Awake To Teach The Youth

African Awake! Teach the Youth

What are we doing as Afrikan Awake conscious people to engage our youth? Are we raising and encouraging our Heru KRSTs, like Auset and Tehuti did, for Heru- to model and memorize after our own strong Goddess Queen Mothers and God Kings in spiritual Ki -Chakra Kundalini of our own Afrikan Culture? Our youth are our Indigo Golden Seeds- Their Spirits need a conscious outlet of expression unclouded by invader mentality and the Matrix of invader corporatakrazy- to grow up unplugged. Fail to plan- plan to fail.
Living consciously is not only about knowing the Glory of Our-Story (history) of our Ancient Ancestors. We must breathe new life back into our Ancestors by cultivating a living creative spiritual lifestyles!
How many of our families are naming their infants and newly born conscious souls, after a spiritual name that aligns with their destiny?
How many even know their Destiny and their Health, Career and Relationships from a spiritual Elder?
How many conscious families Meditate, Pray together or practice Breathing, Martial arts, Massage, Listen to music together, or even, play, sing, dance, draw or paint together?
Do you read to your children? What choices of books do you share?
Do you have vision boards in common to envision a place together in your future?
How many of our families EAT and drink together? What are we feeding our youth? Are we growing our own foods and healing herbs? Know that the Mind Soul and Body are connected.
There are now an abundance of Alternative healing resources available for people to live prosperously.
Do we celebrate the seasons of life- The Equinoxes and Solstices?
Do we take nature walks and commune with the universe like Stargazing, Sun watching, Moongazing visiting spiritual centers like mounds or caves?
Do we bless our homes and new businesses with a Spiritual Elder who can cleanse and bring good spirits to your environments? We should employ and seek the counsel of our elders in all new matters and concerns...




took my Grand Prince- who I named Heru to the Nelson Atkins Museum and Showed him the sculptures of his namesake- Heru, Auset and Ausar. I named them right in front of everyone and debunked the "Isis" "Osiris" "Horus" Titles.

My Prince Heru is a Grower at the Amen Ankh Urban Farm Cooperative and is learning, meditating, creating and reading at the AMEN PAR ANKH Sacred Temple of Life. He is a Naturalist, a talented Artist and Recycler.

"We must teach our youth true knowledge of self to empower them with a legacy of wealth." Adenike Amen-Ra

Along with Meditating, Eating Org-Ankh foods, living within a Maafia- (the original East Afrikan word for "a Healthy Place to Live" he is learning about his destiny and purpose, in cultivating his talents!

WE ARE ALL CONNECTED TO THE UNIVERSE!

Indigo Youth Arising







Our Indigo Youth are arising from the ashes 
Of the Age of Pisces

Every Age provides the ONE
They are the KRST child
12/12/12 launched the rising of the New Age

We must prepare the way for the Aquarian KRST 
The KRST Child is in all of our Indigo Children



KRST is Ka Ra Sa Ta

*the Spirit Enlightened Protector of Eartha

Leadership of every age

Have always sent their emissaries

To slaughter the KRST


Our Youth are marchin in their sufferin

From the Post-Traumatic Stress

Of the neo slavery -Prison Industrial Complex
Yes our youth are showing their @$$es 
To expose the underground economy... 
Our youth have been the walking wounded,

Sagging IS NOT JUST A FASHION STATEMENT!
Our Youth have been lowering their flags at half-mast for the past 30 years
As an SOS on Police corruption, injustice, homicides,

Slaughter, mass incarcerations and Genocides
Of their families and friends

Yes Saggin- Spelled backwards = Niggas 
To those youth who have lost their way
Following a crowd who are caught up in
The normalizing of criminal actions


Caught up in the World Wide Web of
The CoIntelPro criminal "In-Just U.S." system,
From the Preschool to Prison pipeline to be child soldiers
To Super Predator Police and the military industrial complex.
I'm not saying that I condone this behavior-
But I also cannot condemn our young men (Or Women) either

We must embrace and Breathe life into our youth
And use each teachable moment to engage and connect with them.
I am a homeschool Resource Teacher,
I live within my students neighborhoods.
I tutor, read, feed and teach STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Industrial Arts and Mathematics) through urban agriculture at Amen Ankh Akademy. 






As nature, has a cure for every illness, Our Black Youth have gone feral,
From the Mis-Education, and mundane delusions of
Patriotism, integration-ism, assimilation-ism, and Capitalism,
From the Corporatakrazy Racism-system
Following the white rabbit middle class values
Of a society of non-colored sheeple
Who try to control and exploit our Indigo people. 

Our Youth think our elders have failed them and left them for “def”-in da Hood,
In the aftermath of a decade of civil rights movement
To economic integration, by the Corporate Prison invasion and perpetual wars




Of  the G.O.D. of Guns Oil and Drugs and the penalty disparities between Cocaine and Crack. 
Religion is like putting a finger band aid on a leg amputation
Although prayer is positive,
Our youth need more than hope, 
While their Economic bloodlines are gushing down the blood red streets full of dope.

Our Indigo Youth are generating their own freedom structures
Transforming within the background of the underground economy, despite of the odds against them.


Government officials implemented the destruction of the Indigo Americans after the many economic gains, through the Civil Rights movement in the 1970s. Co-Intel-Pro (Counter Intelligence Programming)
was implemented by the Korporatakrazy of the US.
They financed Gangster Rap
To become the Pied Piper human trap;
Luring our youth to a Pinocchio Piccadilly Circus.
To be mauled by Killer Klown Kops- who are worthless tools, used to
fill the Mass Incarceration/Prison industrial complex or Lynching and publicly executing our youth as martyred sacrificial lambs, with impunity. They are involved with Gun running Drugs, Prostitution, gambling, Organs harvesting, Abortions, Poisoned Food and Water, Man made STDs and plagues, human trafficking, drug mules, and sacrificing our young women into showing their @$$es, as sex slaves.


Now conscious Hip Hop Culture has become that Nu-cypher,
Our KRSTs are moving to a green environmental movement
That Thang,
That lantern, pathway 
That talking drum,
That light in the tunnel, for all youth around Mama Eartha.
Taking on the accountability to the ecosystem
And their role in the sustainability of the Planet.
Ha Le Lu Yah

Their Truth is Marching on!
