☥ You have the choice ☥ the power to change your life ☥
☥ You have the wisdom ☥ ability to achieve ☥ maintain Radiant Health ☥
☥ There is no "bad" part of you; only parts of you yearning for love ☥ acceptance ☥ transmutation ☥
I have wrestled with how to connect with all that is US in an authentic and meaningful way that does not offend anyone. When faced with such challenges, I allow SPIRIT ☥ TRUTH (what we consider to be God ☥ our higher power) to make the final decision.
It is uncomfortable to say out loud that colonizers could not destroy Indigenous People, so they hid them inside this term that we call “Brown.” Using the term “Brown” renders Indigenous People invisible. Invisibility is what this website endeavors to reverse. It is not my place to label anyone - in fact my life’s work encourages us to drop these titles over time. However, I feel compelled by SPIRIT to specifically name and honor Indigenous People so that we can Heal ☥ Nourish ☥ Rise ☥ Master ☥ Our ☥ Lives. For many reasons, I have decided to officially drop the term “Brown” and will now refer to US as Black ☥ Indigenous ☥ Immigrant People (BIIP).

Imagine a world that could transcend nationalism and embrace cultural competency. Imagine a people so grounded in love that we didn’t need nationalism as the anchor for our identity. People of the African diaspora ☥ Indigenous People have been torn apart through colonization and then socialized to embrace nationalism - not for the holistic celebration of one’s nation, but for the purposes of separating ourselves from/competing with each other. It is quite possible that our ancestral families were torn apart and sent to different countries to facilitate the process of psychologically breaking us in order to enslave/oppress us.
There is something wrong when nationalism prevents us from wanting to☥ getting to know each other, causes us to see ourselves as superior and fosters a constant environment of competition. Are we sacrificing our humanity for the sake of nationalism? We can have both, but a self-correction is needed that allows us to anchor our identity in the truest part of ourselves so that we do not ever sacrifice our humanity for nationalism. Would increasing our level of understanding about each other take anything away from our ‘nationality?’ Let’s begin the process of self-correction by taking the time to see ourselves ☥ each other.
