Transcending the Language of Kings
Manage episode 329040853 series 3351765
Dear Friends, Family, Revolutionaries, and the Uninitiated,
Please listen while we sit with the CEO and Publisher and, Founder and Editor of “Black SD Magazine'' to discuss the Transcendence of Language Beyond the Threshold and Limits of Royalty. With a mission to display Black excellence, luxury, & lifestyle, from the historical reference and anecdotes of what it means to be tied to the title of Monarchy, to the real life attributes of what it means to be royalty, and the active manifestations in how they affect real life. The implicit meaning behind what it means to say, hear, or apply such labels to others; intimately known or not. Why do we fight for a title that subjugates and oppresses those beneath them?
The intention behind placing these titles upon one another is for an investment, a tokenship of seeing and holding up the value in another. Empty titles are as abundant as hollow prayers. Without investing in the interpersonal value and depth of one another these titles are meaningless. Taught values from the heart of mother, in a home that welcomed self; we learn the truth in a mission and purpose in life are core to who we are; and the majesty of life.
We must ensure we are good with the basic philosophies and principles that root us in life. We need to cherish our true vibrating harmony, and express that in our life.
Taking the time to have not just true reflection of self, but also being open to the conflict of others' affairs in life; especially if it means we must evolve beyond the self centered nature of self.
Sold and fed a bill of health that is meant to complete us, instead perverts the righteous aspirations we carry. Moving on from “good” & “bad” and taking the education from lived experiences. Focusing on building tribes and communities, utilizing privilege to help others learn to be unapologetically free.
A walk through the offices of Black SD Magazine celebrating SD Melanin's Black Excellence, We had a dream that we would hold a conversation allowing us and others to learn how to transcend the barriers of titles and language. Taking power in voice and speaking into existence our identity in individual excellence, without bondage of faux labels.
