  • Ep 107: Community and Ritual

    When people gather together for a common cause, in the ancient African custom it was considered a ritual. The community would come together to ask for help from Spirit. Many voices would unite together, invoking Spirit , the Ancestors. There would be an answer, a solution, a healing. Today, although we don't see it as such, it is the same thing when we come together as a community to bring about change because a ritual, in its essence is a call for change, a call for there to be action on our plea, a call for justice to be served.

      Our bodies are biochemically made to digest certain kinds of food from our Earth Mother. We are destroying our bodies with foods consisting of chemicals that shorten our life spans. Society has told Black Americans for generations that "soul food" was a cultural trait. Instead of honoring our ancestors by taking back our health, our lives, our culture and promoting what we KNOW is good for us, we are falling into an pit laden with colon cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol , hypertension and infant mortality, to name a few.
