Yes!!!
This is a powerful 52-second video. All truth we should follow!
Say That!
Yes! Brother Delxino just reiterated the importance of this powerful truth to us — the same truth that Marcus Garvey expressed to us all those years ago— and that is WE MUST DO FOR SELF!!
Did brother Delxino speak truth or what? We must do for self!!!
Love it! So true!!!!
It’s Got to be real!
Powerful words that stir your heart and mind. I am up and woke.
Do for self! This is our wealth, our greatest opportunity is each other. We have the power to create who we are. To be highly successful, great and to called ourselves Africans Blacks whatever it takes. To get the attention of our people by any means necessary.
You are on point Brother Delxino. Take care of your own responsibilities. Grow up. Stop being someone else’s burden. Create your own economic security.
The first thing that pops out to me is that we are still calling ourselves African… this is the white man’s description… so first before we can do anything we must know who we are outside of the narrative they have always pitched to us! Africa is a name given to the continent by colonizers. And it was called the Dark continent to imply that all melanated people only came from this continent… when the fact is.. We are indigenous to every landmass on this earth and they are not… that is why they go around stealing, killing and destroying (aka colonizing) everywhere they go. We must take back everything they stole from us, by first taking back our Knowing… which they replaced with miseducation and our belief in that miseducation. Our Knowing is Within Us!
Yes, Sister Sharon Barnes, I agree with you. That level of responsibility must be engrained into our brothers and sisters.
Delxino is speaking the truth with love. Grow the hell up. Do for yourself what you have always done for others. U.G.U.L.Y. The ugly truth.
"There is no economic security for the race when it has to always depend on the white man's employment." ~Marcus Garvey
Fear not if we are depending on the white man's employment. We have always depended on ourselves. Others have depended on us as. it's our time to depend on ourselves and watch the beauty thereof, the growth of the race, and more importantly the creation of our own employment.
Powerful!
For real! Powerful!
That's right!
Count me in
No one is coming to save us, we must decide to not depend on any other group of people, grow up, and do for self.
Self-reliance should be the goal of every people. The real question should be, is their any possibility of independence for African Americans in the USA?
"When you go to the cinema and you see the glorification of others in the pictures, don't accept it... organize your propaganda to that effect.... show your own motion pictures."
We must get up and do it for ourselves don’t expect nobody else to do it for us. Trust and Believe this is The Truth ❤️🩹
