Greetings,

I want to ask a question. Is this forum name Africa Speaks? Why the BACKSIDE is any one other than African decendants speaking?  Maybe the forum should be name "Anybody speak and dash dirt". I'm sure this is not the impression that unno would have visitors to get upon browsing.  One poster stated that this was an opinion board, but who draws the line when opinions have become offensive? There is a lot that I could say, all I will say is this, who benefits from the constant slander? That is what I see here. A whole heap of comparing and rae tae and blae blae.  I have an idea, compare ourself to the better person we aspire to be, and nothing and no one else. My sisters and brothers, when we compare ourselves to anything or anyone, WE imply that we feel inferior. To bumbahclaat who? It really make me vex the way unno ah gwaan so in the name of Africa speaking. Once we reach a certain stage in spiritual development, we should be teaching and changing lives, not just chatting a whole heap of chat. CHANGING LIVES. Look pon many of your scholars and spiritual teachers, although they had fire and passion, they also had love and humility. Who can judge, eeh?

What does a next person opinion matter as long as YOU as an individual know the truth? A real scholar does not spend his/her time trying to disprove others, rather gathering more knowledge and information to substantiate the claim. The truth WILL ALWAYS DISPROVE a lie. Truth don't need any of our help with that. Let the trurth speak for itself and let us spend more time changing the lives of the world's youth. I would like to see some of this aggression being channeled in a way that will teach children. Can anybody tell me where I can find a site that my youths can go on and learn these things? Specifically geared toward children in an age appropriate format? Please send me the link to that, so that I can better prepare my young men and women for the world. Left up to us alone, they might perish never fully overstanding the true meaning of life.

It is not ENOUGH to know about black History, it is not ENOUGH to no about White History, why we don't spend our time studying the ways of the universe, how things work in relation to each other? Why we can't bring up a nation of scientists that will continue the works of our foremothers and fathers? I am a mom, I notice in raising my youths that when I yell, scream, or FORCE my opinion or thoughts on them THEY REJECT IT. But when I come in love, peace, and humility...and be an example of LIVING FIRE, life sustaining fire, they respect it. They will either REJECT or RESPECT it, bottom line.

It is only the children now that matter, but whoa be unto them if the only exaples they have to learn from stem from hatred, resentment and ignorance.

His Imperial Majesty and Empress Menen left behind a MULTITUDE of schools, because they realized one thing...The youth ARE our future, and what we feed them today, must go through a process of elimination, it has to come out one way or another.

I'm just tired. I didn't want to say that much, but it just begin to flow. You don't have to worry about me posting here again.

I agree, and appreciate your sentiments, Sister Fiyah. I honesty regret making you feel so and I apologize. I for my part, agree dutifully to these terms. They are in the best interests of us all.

i apologize, mother.

i'm sure i speak for many when i say we all came here to learn; but were deceived into squabbling by the little knowledge we had.

may your voice remind us of our true aspirations.

Wow...Clapping

I couldn't agree more. Too often, opinions turn to debates rather than to reasonings. Right now, I am studying to become a teacher. Chemistry, none the less. So, I can completely understand how the children are our future. I only hope that I can inspire at least one student to think and reason and that will hopefully lead them to trod the path of righteousness. Jah bless.
