Most of us have been in a relationship where we've loved something or someone based on false information or misunderstanding. Then when we begin to receive information that the basis of our love is faulty, That in fact, our relationship with that person, place or thing, is unhealthy.
Yet, many of us refuse to believe it, or believe it, but refuse to get out of the relationship.
Either way, love is blind, but blind love is blinding.
If we have a quiet conversation with self, truth be told from spirit-soul, most of us are still in this type of relationship. Not just one, but multiple forms of unhealthy relationships with people, places and things.
I'm only going to mention a few of these relationships.
You have to be Oedipus-like blind and traumatized to be white or any other racist group, if you still choose to stay married to racism, knowing that racism is bad for your mortal health and eternal health.
Black people are blindly in love with their mis-educated identity to the point that it prevents their awareness of the Africaness that can heal and solve many things we face.
As long as you can control the institutions, you can control the [thinking and] behavior of people. - Dr. Bobby E. Wright
If you do not understand racism (white supremacy) and how it works, everything else you understand will only confuse you. - Neely Fuller
We need something to clarify everything for us, because we get confused...but if we use the concept of Asili, we will understand that whatever it is they are doing, whatever terms they use, however they come at you, you need to be thinking about what? How is this going to facilitate their power and help them to dominate me? -Marimba Ani
