I still remember...911

I will admit that after 11 years I'm still kinda salty about the whole 911 issue.

It was not just the loss of so much of My possessions that bother Me still, but more about the memory of the attitudes of so many people I knew and worked with and how I was treated right afterwards.

And maybe that is another reason why I don't go home as much as I used to too?

Because what I remembered the most about the whole 911 event was the attitude of everyone. (family included)

And how Americans turned on Americans like Myself.

So every time I see bigotry and racism I think of how Americans acted right afterwards towards each other. 

I think about how it felt to be homeless and being told there is nothing home for you to come back too.

I think about being one of the few people trusted enough to set up the set for the Presidents first speech in Atlanta and how the other Union guys acted while we was working that event. 

I think about how angry Americans was.

I think about how READY FOR WAR everyone was.

And I think about the countless amounts of people who died because American was so anxious for a war that so many later blamed so many others OTHER than themselves.

And as I now sit in at least a stable recovery that has taken almost 11 years to get to thus far...

I'm still ashamed of the Americans I remember back during and after 911.  And how they treated each other including Myself.

And I'm most silent in thought still on this day.

Because I remember.

2012... it's still not over yet.

This is a interesting time of year spiritually.

*wicked grin*

As metaphysical animals, we humans all go through natural instincts subconsciously as seasons change and the earth shifts and goes through it's phases with the other planets.

And seldom do we stop for a moment and really focus on our vibrations and the vibrations of others and how this year, this moment, this season has been the MOST t

alked about event in the history of mankind as we know it.

These moments this second, this day, this season has been prophesied by scholars and mystics for more centuries in our history than many of us have studied.

And yet, there is so much to distract us from a moment of reflection and maybe even to better focus on the possibilities this Earths shift can effect our realities.

No need for alarm or insecurity.

But this is the year 2012.

And we have less time until the deadline mentioned as the end of a era than we have shopping days till XMass...lol

And the planet and the stars around it is doing some unique things right now. And I don't know how, but as simple humans I know that lately our minds and our world around us has been changing more than normal.

So I guess what I'm saying is how do you feel?

The Matrix pays Black Female Author for theft of the concept and movie idea.

Author of the Matrix Sophia Stewart

I knew there was a deeper connection to the Matrix and it's story line than the "white washed" movie version we all know.

And here's the real scoop!

This little known story has met a just conclusion, as Sophia Stewart, African American author of The Matrix will finally receive her just due from the copyright infringement of her original work!!!

A six-year dispute has ended involving Sophia Stewart, the Wachowski Brothers, Joel Silver and Warner Brothers. Stewart’s allegations, involving copyright infringement and racketeering, were received and acknowledged by the Central District of California, Judge Margaret Morrow presiding.

Stewart, a New Yorker who has resided in Salt Lake City for the past five years, will recover damages from the films, The Matrix I, II and III, as well as The Terminator and its sequels. She will soon receive one of the biggest payoffs in the history of Hollywood, as the gross receipts of both films and their sequels total over 2.5 billion dollars.

Stewart filed her case in 1999, after viewing the Matrix, which she felt had been based on her manuscript, ‘The Third Eye,’ copyrighted in 1981. In the mid-eighties Stewart had submitted her manuscript to an ad placed by the Wachowski Brothers, requesting new sci-fi works.

According to court documentation, an FBI investigation discovered that more than thirty minutes had been edited from the original film, in an attempt to avoid penalties for copyright infringement. The investigation also stated that ‘credible witnesses employed at Warner Brothers came forward, claiming that the executives and lawyers had full knowledge that the work in question did not belong to the Wachowski Brothers.’ These witnesses claimed to have seen Stewart’s original work and that it had been ‘often used during preparation of the motion pictures.’ The defendants tried, on several occasions, to have Stewart’s case dismissed, without success.

Stewart has confronted skepticism on all sides, much of which comes from Matrix fans, who are strangely loyal to the Wachowski Brothers. One on-line forum, entitled Matrix Explained has an entire section devoted to Stewart. Some who have researched her history and writings are open to her story.

Others are suspicious and mocking. ‘It doesn’t bother me,’ said Stewart in a phone interview last week, ‘I always knew what was true.’

Some fans, are unaware of the case or they question its legitimacy, due to the fact that it has received little to no media coverage. Though the case was not made public until October of 2003, Stewart has her own explanation, as quoted at aghettotymz.com:

‘The reason you have not seen any of this in the media is because Warner Brothers parent company is AOL-Time Warner…. this GIANT owns 95 percent of the media… let me give you a clue as to what they own in the media business… New York Times papers/magazines, LA Times papers/magazines, People Magazine, CNN news, Extra, Celebrity Justice, Entertainment Tonight, HBO, New Line Cinema, DreamWorks, Newsweek, Village Roadshow and many, many more! They are not going to report on themselves. They have been suppressing my case for years.’

Fans who have taken Stewart’s allegations seriously, have found eerie mythological parallels, which seem significant in a case that revolves around the highly metaphorical and symbolic Matrix series. Sophia, the Greek goddess of wisdom has been referenced many times in speculation about Stewart. In one book about the Goddess Sophia, it reads, ‘The black goddess is the mistress of web creation spun in her divine matrix.’

Although there have been outside implications as to racial injustice (Stewart is African American), she does not feel that this is the case. ‘This is all about the Benjamins,’ said Stewart. ‘It’s not about money with me. It’s about justice.’

Stewart’s future plans involve a record label, entitled Popsilk Records, and a motion picture production company, All Eyez On Me, in reference to God. ‘I wrote The Third Eye to wake people up, to remind them why God put them here. There’s more to life than money,’ said Stewart. ‘My whole to the world is about God and good and about choice, about spirituality over ‘technocracy’.’
If Stewart represents spirituality, then she truly has prevailed over the ‘technocracy’ represented in both the Terminator and the Matrix, and now, ironically, by their supposed creators.

Stewart is currently having discussions with CBS about a possible exclusive story and has several media engagements in the near future to nationally publicize her victory. June 13th 2004. Sophia Stewart’s press release read: ‘The Matrix & Terminator movie franchises have made world history and have ultimately changed the way people view movies and how Hollywood does business, yet the real truth about the creator and creation of these films continue to elude the masses because the hidden secret of the matter is that these films were created and written by a Black woman…a Black woman named Sophia Stewart. But Hollywood does not want you to know this fact simply because it would change history. Also it would encourage our Black children to realize a dream and that is…nothing is impossible for them to achieve!’

Now does this change the image of the Matrix theory for you now?

And she is sexy too!

Have we come too far to forget where we came from today as a people?

This year has been more than just a image of extreme change.

For many of us in America.

We have witnessed a change in what this country has been fighting to become.

More equal for all people to feel we all belong too, in the title of an image of "We the People" that is stated in our constitution that our fore fathers proclaimed as all that is fair and holy as a country united.

And in the past 70 years our history has been reformed from a image of racial divide to the true melting pot that this country has become respectfully.

While many of us have varied views of the memory and the struggle and politics of the past 70 years of changes and the dedication and sacrifice of so many for a common goal that has only as of late shown some form of positive results or not depending on the individual.

The proof is in the reality we all are now living closer together as a country.

I am not saying that we have become a more perfect union of sorts as a country.

But we have grown to become more perfect than we all were more than 70 years ago as a nation united and not as divided as before.

And in the past 70 years or so many people have fought and died for a dream that has become more of a reality today than ever before.

But I wonder...

Have we forgotten about so many who sacrificed so much to get us thus far?

Have we forgotten how far we have come in so little time?

Have we lost hope in our own growth today by forgetting how long it has taken for us to have the amount of change we now live with as a people?

Have we lost respect for the consideration that so many generations before us wished we did much more with so much we have now that we seem to still feel powerless as to what we still need to be fighting for?

Have we lost the ability to feel like we belong to a struggle that is just as needed today as it was 70 years ago?

Have we become ungrateful and unthankful for what we have thus far that so many have struggled and died for us to continue a fight that now has become uninteresting?

Have we become inconsiderate of the sacrifices so many others have made for us to be who we have become today?

Have we considered there is no debt to be repaid to our fore fathers who gave and lost so much for a freedom we now share with others who are just as inconsiderate?

I wonder about these questions and so many more like them while I watch and read so many opinions from so many others whom would not have such a voice or freedom of choice that now seem to have become more complaints as to why they feel they should have more than what they have as of late.

Many of you who now spew political views as if your views are being ignored by many others who all had less of the ability to be considered important enough to be allowed to vote less than 70 years ago.

Many of you who scream foul at the sight of racism and bigotry that was once common place and more extreme.

Yet, you do very little other than complain as a mass of people who have yet taken a torch passed on from pass generations of people who gave more for a struggle that many of you are ungrateful in your actions and deeds thus far.

Many of you think that we have grown more worthy of a freedom we have yet to build into something worth being free for. As if it has become your right to complain more than continue to fight for equality for all of us as Americans and not just for your own personal comfort and concerns.

What can you point too as repayment for what so many others gave you thus far?

Have you given enough to earn as much of a rest that many seem to be taking as not your fight anymore?

Have you forgotten or even shun the power that has been given you for the fear of not being able to do anymore than what you have done thus far?

Have YOU come this far to forget why YOU are here now?


So what's your next move?

As I was reading a very interesting book about the struggle of My people. And how they organized and formed tactics and connections to combine forces for the greater goal of getting us this far in our history.

I started to wonder why are we now doing so little to improve on what we have thus far and why we seem to not be concerned as to why the need for us all to continue to struggle together for a greater good seems to not be as important.

Maybe some of you will better understand what I'm talking about if you too choose to read this book as well.

We Will Return In The Whirlwind: Black Radical Organizations 1960-1975

http://www.akpress.org/2007/items/wewillreturncloth


I seldom read anything from many of the people who post on a regular about so many of todays issues anything about the importance of us picking up the torch left by so many great people who gave their lives in the struggle for more of the freedoms we indulge in now.

So what's your excuse?


Why do you not question yourself and offer more of yourself to a greater good than what we still suffer from today together?


We all have the power and the duty to do more than what we have thus far.

What do you fear?

Are you free enough as you are today?

If Sigmund Freud lived today? I wonder what he would say?

Psychotherapy has been known to have a fine "divide in theory" between the others after his time who challenged his studies and the times that were not as exposed to a dark side that until the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's have never been considered as saturated with a certain cultural extremity of a substance that has come and gone in our recent history. But had Sigmonud Freud been reincarnated or at least had the chance to further his studies during a time that most of the world had become exposed more personally to the substance in question. Maybe his theories would have been more understood as to how many of todays dysfunctions that are now being considered more gender, sexual, energetically manipulated and polaric in nature as we now define many who now have been effected by direct or indirect contact with a reality of a substance that now is being noted as being genetically involved in the evolution of many of todays dysfunctional young adults and children. ADDHD and many other energetically altered states of enhanced evolutions have cause many in the psychological field to question if Sigmund Freud had continued his studies in our recent past of social manipulations of psycho and Biological substances and their effects on not just the consumer by the survivors of such a mass amount of indulgences that have been questioned by many other scholars who disclaimed Sigmund Freud's work due to the actual substance and the sexual connection that seemed at that time and era to be hysterical dew to the lack of coverage of different cultural genetic beings. While NOW in todays reflection of the past few years of our history have found many of the substances in question to now be a shameful reality for many inner city inhabitants and their decendants, relations and offspring that are today being diagnosed with many mental and bio polaric dysfunctions that had Sigmund Freud been alive in the past 50 years while many of these substances that have been in question as to why Sigmund Freud considered many of these Just as connected to his theories as his sexual connection to a darker almost more clinical kinkiness and gender based correlation to the spiritual and even upper metaphysical effect that many of these substances caused many of his subjects and theories in his studies to have been worth a deeper look into. Meaning? What if it was possible to revisit many of the theories that Sigmund Freud and his colleagues were studying in their day and time, and was able to compare them if not even allow them to further their studies in the times we have now grown to respect in our recent past that has been overly saturated by many of these questionable substances that we KNOW became introduced to mass proportions of many of the worlds inner cities to the degree that they became epidemic abuses and a world wide concern as to how that era would effect a much larger population of the general public. And for defense sake of this theory we all have to respect the reality of a certain time frame in the worlds history where these questionable substances were being consumed in epidemic proportions to masses of active adults and even children that have now grown to the age of at least young adult age today. From "Crack Babies" to Mass amounts of drug induced abuse and social manipulations that have even been recorded as shifting the moral structure of mass populations of inner city inhabitants of much of the worlds cultural realities. From prohibition to Reefer Madness to the free Love sexual revolution and feminism to Hippies and the Psychedelic Experience to the 70's explosion into the Birth of the Disco Club scene and the era of Excess and then the evolution into the darker image of the Pop and Hip Hop as well as the Hard Rock evolution that soon became the even darker era of The drug scene and the crime and crack became a shameful reality though out the 90's and the awakening of the millenium and then the shock of the S&L Scandal and the Enron financial break down into what we now face as a health care dilemma of today that also includes the deeper reality of the Mental Health field being in need of re-evaluation so that it can better support the ability to reconstruct a more productive educational system. But while everything that has been mentioned thus far about how the image of the indulgence and manipulation of these substances becoming more of a possibility of mutating massive amounts of "New Generations" of individuals who have survived or become created from the residue of a tainted past of substances that had been considered in the era and time of Sigmund Freud's studies and research. But this is the point of this post where this theory rather makes sense enough to entertain this fantasy or consider the invitation senseless. If Sigmund Freud was able to further complete his study and research with all of the NEW Information that has NOW become available from the basic statistics of the REALITIES of the past 60 years of evolutions of social populations of the inner cities of the worlds major cities. Including the proof of an excessive amount of indulgences of controlled substances by more than a average amount of general populations of not just the area of Sigmund Freud's Life and times of the past but also a recreation of his continued study in THIS day and age if it is or could be possible. If Sigmund Freud was alive today. I wonder what he would say about the evolution of todays populations of recently altered and mentally manipulated dysfunctional people who have been effected to a greater degree by many of the questionable substances that had become a deterrent from considering many of Freud's observations and theories to be honorable enough to consider as important TODAY than the day that He existed in conflict of being able to define as sane by his peers. Because at least today we know that it is possible for today's populations to have been subjected to many of the darker indulgences that may in the past questioned as respectfully possible. Sex, drugs and rock and roll has become a true reality more so within today's reality than back in the days when Sigmund Freud first became inquisitive in deeply studying the human psyche and it's connection to our sexuality and dysfunctional mentalities due to outside manipulative substances and unstable biochemical alterations of the genetic structure of a new version of evolution of human kind in a more exposed reality. And that reality has become more real for more people on earth in masses who have now become more introduced to a theory that was only entertained as well as investigated by someone who was before his time. And out of everything that I would consider was a waste of gray matter and idle chatter from Sigmund Freud was his mind and all the time he tried to find some deeper understanding of a deeper psychotic trait that now have become a part of a greater possible mental state of too many people around the world that have found the substances that became questionable as to his own fate. What if Sigmund Freud was before his time? And why are so many people who today find the study of psychology and the effects of many of today's influences of the same substances that were also interesting enough for Freud to further investigate still entertaining the same manner of denial as his colleagues ridiculed him and his theories to be. But for some reason, if you were to study psychology as it is respected today. You would have to also learn of the journey that Freud took in discovering a deeper darker possibility of a reality that many today can only shamefully deny has no effect on the human mentality. The same substances that called Sigmund Freud into question for his theory and study has become lately a reality for too many who have had to deal with it's reality. This is your brain on drugs and sexuality. And I wonder why so many still find his theory more of a comedy than a possible reality. And I don't think many of you can consider that possibility. And that mentality is starting to feed a greater tragedy. Sigmund Freud may have been more on to a theory that today has become too shameful of a reality.
What is causing such a massive degree of dysfunctional mentalities if Freud was considered to be just a sex crazed kinky addict who made up such a theory of possibilities of how a mass amount of humans could end up not having any mental stability? Denial or dope? What do you think?

And speaking of energy

And what gets Me about this whole theory is how far back they were consuming the SAME substances that have now become genetically part of some many peoples bio chemistry that NOBODY knows what kind of effect anything has on anyone.

But we do know that many people who are Bi Polar have triggers that happen from casual introductions of energy emitted from others who may not know they are effecting others by smell, taste, touch, feel, or transmission of energy from distances.

DENIAL is the perfect word.

Because there are more recovering addicts as well as mentally dysfunctional people who all have been overly exposed to the substances that Freud was explaining in his studies to have deeper effects on their mental and sexual nature.

And DENIAL has been the problem because todays people are still suffering from the shame of being able to admit that they have been effected and exposed to the substances that many in the Medical and Mental Health field consider not important.

And now many of the Medicines that are now being administered to masses of people include the ingredients of them same substances from Tylonol to Viagra as well as many of the Psycho stablizing drugs like Prozac, Zoloff and many others.

And here is something many people have not considered to be just as important in the mental Health field...

Energy!

Like the Chakras.

Now in todays science it is respected to believe that we have Chakras.

We believe that there is energy that we absorb and emit or transmit that travel the same paths as the effects of pheromones.

And in the study of the Chakras it is a fact that the first 3 basic points of the Chakras are all sexually manipulated and driven but sexual knowledge and contact. Like how some state that you have to watch who you share your energy with and how someone can transmit certain energies that may be unhealthy for some others.

And THAT is what has been happening as of late, while the medical field has only been able to experiment with Pharmaceutical drugs to alter the brains mechanical triggers without knowing what or who is causing these triggers to exist.

So yeah...

Anyone I find who says they major in Psychology and thinks that Sigmund Freud was a Coked out sex freak?

I tend to consider them more of the problem that we are facing in trying to find the source of these dysfunctions and how to better control them without destroying the natural evolution of brain functions of todays overly evolved masses of people.

It seems that everyone knows how to spot a crack head today.

But nobody wants to know how and why they exist.

And they do too.

And Sigmund Freud was NOT a crack head!

Race and the left coast. Respecting Wattstax...

The Staple Singers was a group and not just Pops and the two chicks singing...lol

But this song, when performed, was unbelievable...



["Respect Yourself" The Stax Live version]


What I loved about the presentation of this song and it's images that accompanied the performance was the TIME and the memories....

So may have the CD or the DVD but NOTHING compared to the feeling of being in a theater as this Move and this scene played in a smoke filled theater...watching the concert of a lifetime.

Respect Yourself...


If you disrespect anybody that you run in to
How in the world do you think anybody's s'posed to respect you
If you don't give a heck 'bout the man with the bible in his hand
Just get out the way, and let the gentleman do his thing
You the kind of gentleman that want everything your way
Take the sheet off your face, boy, it's a brand new day

Respect yourself, respect yourself
If you don't respect yourself
Ain't nobody gonna give a good cahoot, na na na na
Respect yourself, respect yourself

If you're walking 'round think'n that the world owes you something cause
You're here you goin' out the world backwards like you did when you
Put your hand on your mouth when you cough, that'll help the solution
Oh, you cuss around women and you don't even know their names and you
Dumb enough to think that'll make you a big ol man


...


Yall aint ready...lol

Because many of us in that movie theater on the East coast wasn't ready to see black folks do this either...




[THIS IS HOW IT GOT STARTED] and then a party started. And then a riot almost broke out. And this was Watts Stax... The Black folks Woodstock!

And who said that black folks didn't like funky chicken?

The miseducation of our own mentality. Taking back our humaity.

I was chatting with a old friend of Mine.

We were talking about the current issues.
Mostly our people and our children.
And what needs to be done.

And he said:
I Just look at our babies and our homes, and thats the bottom line.
and with that said i also feel we as brother's have to fine more time being king's, treating, and reminding our women that they are Queens and not so called Diva's

And I replied;

Yeah...

But being Kings and Queens in theory is great.

I think the problem with that theory is the conduct of many Kings and Queens are not very impressive too. It gives off a Elitist midset that most can't handle humbly.

Ladies and Gents is better. Because you can teach the difference between what they are and what they should do.

The ROYAL mentality is KILLING our people.

*blank stare*

We have to get back to Humanity.

Being better humans to each other.

Being better partners to our mates.
Being better friends to each other.

And being better at not just knowing our selves, but knowing our deeper selves and striving for a deeper knowledge of our greater selves to be.

I think we are teaching with the wrong images and causing our people to compete and not relate.

That's what we have competitions and not relationships.

They don't KNOW any better.

If it takes a village? Then we have to find a better reason to respect the need of community and get back to being better people to other people.

We as a people have lost sight of what's right for what we have been learning right now.

And our children are mutants and not little animals. We have to learn how to help them learn how to better MASTER their mutations and not try to mimmic(sp) our inferior images of the past.

I was a prodigy child. Gifted.
But nothing as gifted as many of todays children are becoming.

We have to stop trying to make robots.

And make better humans who are trained to respect all of humanity

We as a people have been mis-educated.

We have been taught to be elitist and not humble humans.
We have been taught to be Diva's and not Ladies.
We have been taught to be Players and not Gentlemen.
We have been taught to be Royals without responsibility to whom you serve.
We have been taught it's Us against Them and not that we all are communal people in need of building better bridges and support and not barriers and enemies.

We have been taught a warped sense of reality.

And it's less important to mention who and why more than what we should be NOW and HOW.

Because we as a world of people are becoming a new world of new people who are in need of learning from each other and not trying to dominate over each other.

We need to take back our humanity.

And learn to become better humans with each other.

Because that's all we have left.

Each other.
