Conscious!

Hey Y'all,
I hope that everyone had a nice Thanksgiving and that you were able to spend time with your Family.

"We Don't Celebrate Thanksgiving Mista Jaycee!"

Oh, Sorry, Y'all Jehovah's Witnesses?

"No! We don't celebrate the wholesale slaughter of the Native American Population!

????????? WTH?????!!!!!!!!

Mutha----! No one commerates the Wholesale Slaughter of a whole group of People! NO ONE! Thanksgiving, like Christmas, Labor Day, and Presidents Day is a DAY OFF OF WORK WITH PAY!
So, of course you DONATE all your earnings from those days right?

"Huh?"

Huh? I am asking you Do you donate your earnings from those days to charities that benefit Native Americans, for example?

......

I'll wait! So, let me get this correct. You will accept the day off. You will take the money that's offered to you, if you recieve a paid holiday. You will accept a gift certificate for a Turkey or THE TURKEY from your job on Thanksgiving or insert Holiday here right? Isn't that hypocritical? Of course it is.

On Thanksgiving, you can spend the days off with your Family.  Thanksgiving and Christmas are two days that Your whole Family can get together at once. People travel across states to get together.  You don't do that???? You don't spend the day watching football right?  You fast longer than the time to cook the bird right?

So you fast and pray and of course you go out and visit Native American Reservations right on the so called Thankgiving Holiday right?

"Does a Casino count?"

Let me check....NO!

So, now we both see that while your intent is admirable it's misguided and therefore BULLSHIT!

"Why Mista Jaycee?"

It's great that Black Folks and Euro-American Folks have gotten conscious of what happened to the Native Americans! Great! It's a good thing that we no longer subscribe to the WHOLE PILGRIM STORY with all the NOBLE Intentions cause we know what Really happened.  We all know that Columbus was one of the first in a long line of evil genocidal maniacs.

But BEING Conscious is a waste if it does not spur you to ACTION!   It just makes you SELF RIGHTEOUS and an A**Hole!

I talked with several people that considered themselves to BE CONSCIOUS that I wished good tidings to only to be rebuffed, scolded, counseled and rebuked. Tired and fed up with the posturing I issued a challenge to the SO Called Conscious Community that I will now extend to this medium as well.

PUT UP OR SHUT KNUCKKAS!

Here is the challenge: Donate $25 or more to a Historically Black College or University, Divine Nine Plus 1 Organization, Prince Hall, Order of Eastern Star Organization or NAACP for Youth Scholarships.

Don't just read all the CONSCIOUS BOOKS, Wear Afrikan Garb, Change Your Diet, Change Your Hair and adopt all the POLITICALLY CORRECT CONSCIOUS OPINIONS and then put NO ACTION Behind it!

We do not need another rally of ANGRY PROTESTING Knuckas! We need Conscious Black Folks to BE Motivated to donate  their TIME, ENERGY, KNOWLEDGE and MONEY to REAL LIBERATION EFFORTS! Without effort, time and money your CONSCIOUSNESS is just a fad!

Yeah, a fad just like those Afrikan, Red, Green, and Yellow Leather Medallions from the 90's and it will go away like the Hightop fade!

We do not need another rally of ANGRY PROTESTING Knuckas!

Forget Marching! Forget Speeches! Don't call Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton!  What's needed is more ELIJAH MUHAMMED, MARCUS GARVEY, FATHER DIVINE, ECONOMIC DO FOR SELF EFFORTS! Money Brothers and Sisters! MONEY, TIME, KNOWLEDGE!

Put Up or Shut UP!

BE Prayerful! BE Mindful! BE Careful!
Jaycee

Thank you for speaking these truths. I have a spiritual response to Father Divine and believe he is a great Wayshower--whatever folks think about Father, there is still much for all to learn from Him.

C'mon Jaycee - you know most people are more about affect than effect.
People only wish to be seen by others as being good without having to do the work to actually be good.

(But yeah... great post.)
