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

Widespread Kwanzaa Quandary Still Exists After Waters Test and Temperature Check
Unity Consciousness #2860

(9azzzzzzzzzzzzzu of 11)

On one of the Kwanzaa messages on this web log, I posted most of the update below. This was one of many checkups that must be regularly performed. As an additional sample, it indicates there is still a lackadaisical approach to basic resources for self-improvement. This is likely due to a greater focus on a few areas money motivated.
I am dismayed and astonished at how many people obviously don't like to be admonished or ignore reminders to help them remove more of their blinders and binders. Since posting the following message, many people have visited the original page and only one has shown themselves willing to avoid the false positives of the directions being followed, and allow themselves to benefit from the expanding freedom of going beyond the temporary surface interaction with Kwanzaa.

Weakness of knowledge still exists despite decades long pushing towards acknowledging Black History is 365/24/7 and permeates all locations of human habitation and the history of all people because Black History is in all foundations, and is in fact, the entire construction, except for the portion that is current staging of history.

Update 12.13.22:

And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another. (Romans 15:14) Bring more fullness to your understandings. Just as the spirit of Christmas does not sprout after Turkey Day and wither after Christmas Day, neither does Kwanzaa begin on December 26th or end on January 1st. It is these minimizations of holy days that has us in many quandaries that we can feel in our bones but can't figure out what's wrong.

Better is a poor and a wise child than an old and foolish king, who will no more be admonished. (Ecclesiastes 4:13)

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink. Are we a fly by night learner who routinely has no breadth or depth of understanding, or are we an Initiate of Learning? In the 7 years since posting this message in poem, I'm still wondering why, despite over 1200 views, almost 100% of the people who visit this page in search of Kwanzaa inspiration, do not, as a matter of practical habit, search this blog for additional references to Kwanzaa to expand their learning experience. This web log is over 15 years old and contains almost 3,300 messages. This could be easily ascertained by looking at the list of posts on the right. We must remember to use more of the plant than what we are told to use and understand that each plant contains more benefit than what we are told and each plant connects us to the broader base of truths.

Bottom Lines

It's not primarily about human to human admonishment, chastisement, punishment. The Supreme always does these things. Thus you can shun but you can't slide.
