Truth about Canola Oil and White Sugar
Hotep All,
I was listening to the Tom Joyner Morning Show this morning and heard a cook on there getting here new show that's taking the place of some soap opera named "All My Children." Well she mentioned using Canola Oil in place of other oils because of its taste benefits. Well everything that taste good for you isn't always good for you and in this case Canola Oil is actually dangerous to you.
Well...as always Corporate America uses those we respect to assist in keeping us uninformed and blind to our health. While you are looking at the video on Canola oil, I thought you might as well look at the videos on White Sugar as well and see how deadly this is to you and your health. I'm sure she'll be using plenty of this on her cooking show as well.
It's a shame because I love to cook and you can use the natural products the Creator gave us instead of the man made DRUGS distributed in the name of the green God called Money.
After watching .. please pass along so that maybe you could assist in saving someones life.

The program uses simple recordings and charts to teach sounds, blends, and other rules for decoding words. Thousands of schools and individuals have thrived using this program over the years. Reading is the one critical skill needed for every school subject. Reading proficiently will enable a student to learn more quickly and easily. Reading effectively makes a difference as a tool used for learning other information. Seventy to eighty-five percent of everything your child learns comes from reading. After successfully using the program with her sons Danny and Damien, in 1984 Ruth Qualls, the founder of "Let's Make It Difficult for Our Children to Fail," began using the program to teach other children how to read using phonics. Mrs. Qualls also began educating parents about the program. In 1988, as a high school senior Lisa Felton started assisting Mrs. Qualls at the center. She continued working with her while majoring in English at Longwood College in Farmville, Virginia. Even after graduation and during her career as a teacher Lisa continued to support Mrs. Qualls in her endeavor to educate parents and children. A New ChapterOn August 20, 2006 upon Mrs. Qualls' retirement, Lisa was joined by Christopher Bracey in carrying on her vision of providing affordable educational services to Hampton Roads' families. The objective of our Sound Way to Easy Reading Learning Center is to give students ages 4 to 17 a complete mastery reading and math skills.

Mr. Bracey's dedication to education has been evident in his students' levels of achievement. He has also served as a tutor and mentor to children in Hampton Roads for over 12 years. |
Proof: Drugs keep the banking system afloat
Hotep All,
Mexican drug cartels pulled their cash out
of US banks in 2007...and month later major
banks started buckling.
Coincidence?
Well for starters, all the major hanks have been convicted
(but barely punished) for laundering drug money...and
that's just the tip of the iceberg.

How much do oil companies really pay in taxes? - The Washington Pos
Exxon-Mobil paid $0 in federal taxes in 2009. That's a hell of a lot less than I paid! And they also received federal tax credits of $136 Million. Plus, the tax incentives that most of the oil companies get typically covers their cost to drill for the oil, AND they claim that they can't survive without those breaks. Bull-shit!
How come the price of gas is steadily going up since they get all of those breaks and further, oil production has increased since last year. What happened to all the oil that was produced with the increase in production? You would think that gas prices would be going DOWN, right? When the US gives oil companies permits to drill for oil off the coast of VA, in Alaska, or like last year when BP's oil well in the Gulf of Mexico blew up and caused environmental disaster in that area that will last for years, what happens to all of that oil that they produce?
The oil companies DO NOT give the US consumers a discount on the oil it produces domestically. Instead the oil companies SELL their crude oil produced, at great environmental risk to the US, on the world crude market to the highest bidder! They don't sell that domestically produced oil to the US at a discount; the US has to pay the much higher world crude market price that is set mainly by the demand of so-called emerging economies such as China, India, etc. The net result is that even though the US takes great environmental risk by allowing the companies to drill in its back yard, the oil companies keep the crude oil and sells it to the world at the highest price it can get. That is what is driving up the price of gas! GREED/BLOOD-SUCKING CAPITALISM!
And yet the Cons are screaming DRILL,BABY DRILL as a means of allegedly reducing the price of oil, when they ought to be passing laws that REQUIRE the oil companies to meet the domestic needs for oil first before they sell it on the world market. And better yet, the US has had the technology to produce efficient, non-gas vehicles for over 30 years! But, those vehicles will not see the light of day because, again, the greedy oil companies are padding the back pockets of the politicians to keep those vehicles off the market.
I gues you have figured out by now how I feel about tax breaks for big oil.

Beyonce Debuts Charity Single "God Bless The USA"
| Beyonce debuts charity single God Bless the USA Singer unveils patriotic power-ballad on Piers Morgan Tonight, with proceeds going to families of 9/11 victims Dan Martin Saturday May 7 2011 guardian.co.uk http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2011/may/06/beyonce-charity-single-god-bless-usa Beyonce [http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/beyonce" title="Beyonc] is releasing her second new single in as many weeks, following Run the World (Girls) [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syCPQH4UQRY" title="Run the World (Girls)] with new charity track God Bless the USA [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESHHJfNj7Cg" title="God Bless The USA]. Fans peturbed by the "challenging" nature of Run the World (Girls) will probably be reassured by the patriotic power-ballad, which she performed on Piers Morgan's CNN show last night (Thursday 5 May). The former Daily Mirror editor announced the performance via Twitter: "If you don't get teary at the end of @PiersTonight and the world premiere of Beyonc?'s God Bless the USA, you're probably not from here." God Bless the USA was written and originally released in 1984 [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qRCQypnVeXA" title="originally released in 1984] by country musician Lee Greenwood, and was played at this year's Republican party convention. Its popularity increased after 9/11, and it was re-released following the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Beyonc?'s version will raise funds for the New York Police and Fire Widows' and Children's Benefit. The singer originally recorded the track in 2008 for the Obama presidential campaign, but never released it. It seems likely the death of Osama bin Laden on Monday has been the spur for this release. God Bless the USA certainly stands in contrast to Beyonc?'s last intervention in national affairs, when she joined first lady Michelle Obama's anti-obesity campaign, Move Your Body [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYP4MgxDV2U" title="Move Your Body].

The Pernicious Nature of Racism/White Supremacy
No matter what your opinion about Pres. Obama may be, I hope everyone is paying attention to the deadly and pernicious nature of racists/white supremacist attacks upon a man who classifies himself as a Black man. The attacks are coming from not only the usual enemies, but also from so-called Black Cons, or Black wannbee Cons. Both phrases are in fact oxymoronic; contradiction in terms.
It was not enough that Obama was lambasted by these Cons for his alleged "foreign birth" by the so-called birthers. Now the state of Missouri has passed a "birthers law" requiring all future presidential candidates who want to be on the MO ballot, to produce valid birth certificates. Obama may have erred in stooping so low to validate himself by making his birth records public. Now the Cons are saying that those records are fake! Obama, being a trained lawyer, should have known that an accused person doesn't have to prove that he/she is innocent as much as the accusers have to prove that he/she is GUILTY!. The burden of proof lies with the accuser, not the accused.
If I were Obama, I would have told those jerks that allright you are questioning my legitimacy, now I am questioning yours, and call for all of those so-called pure, white Cons to produce independently certified DNA test results of ALL 23 chromosome pairs in each person, AND if any of those test results shows ONE DROP of Black, Brown, Red, Or Yellow blood , then Obama should out them as passing for white! And the likely result of those tests will show that, at this late stage of human development, practically NO ONE living is pure anything!. To us, we are more likely to live with the fact that our once pure Afrikan bloodlines have become tainted by the euros rape of our women. But to those so-called pure, white crackers, ONE drop of non-white blood is a reason for suicide!
Now the CONs are also saying that Bin Laden should have been given due process. Since when did a military operation require due process? Hell, those racist pales have gunned down our people by the thousands during police operations that do require due process, but where were the Cons screaming for due process then? Tell the relatives of former Black Panther Fred Hampton, who was killed by the FBI while he lay asleep in his bed about due process. Tell the thousands of Black prisoners unjustly jailed about due process.
I hope the message gets across to us that racism/white supremacy is local, regional, national and global in scope. And further it doesn't give a damn about your so-called class or social standing, as we can see in the Obama-jama these pale cons are working now. Dr. Clarke used to talk about how Mr. Johnson, the founder of Jet, Ebony and many other national publications was worth over $300 Million in his day and yet he, in his Black skin, couldn't even get a taxi in NYC! The euro don't care how much moolah you have or how fast you can run or how many home runs you can hit. All that matters to him is that you live in a Black house.

Tune in to Ramona Africa on African Resistance Now this Wednesday!
This Week on African Resistance Now!!
InPDUM will interview Ramona Africa, a survivor of the MOVE bombing, about the current status of the struggle for justice for MOVE and the African community.
Even if you don't agree with what MOVE believes we must all agree that MOVE has a right to believe what they believe. The U.S. government is wrong for its attack on MOVE and the African community. On May 13, 1985 the City of Philadelphia dropped a bomb on the MOVE house on Osage Ave in West Philly. The fire department let the house and nearly the whole block burn down! This was all because the City didn't like what MOVE talked about.

Reclaim our children
Ancestral Path Youth Weekend Schule
I frequently get asked about child-rearing issues ranging from what to teach young Black kids to youth gangs to school work/dropouts, etc. While I am far from an expert in these fields, my personal experiences with independent Afrikan-centered schools such as our own former Kujichagulia Academy in Chesapeake, the celebrated Marcus Garvey Academy in LA, and the Watoto Schules in DC have shown me that those kinds of efforts have profound impacts on the kids in terms of improving their self-esteem, educational competence, behaviors and other benefits.
The school is intended to serve as a cultural awareness/life style resource for our young children, thus instilling in them a heightened sense of self worthiness/esteem that has been show to be essential for our children to hopefully survive the tremendous pressures of being a Black child in the US and to live a meaningful, purposeful, successful life.
Building upon those experiences, while not actually starting a daily school, I am proposing an alternative for your consideration. which is the Ancestral Path Youth Weekend Schule. The school will have Pre-teen (ages 7-12) and a Teen (ages 13-19) components for both girls and boys together. The classes will meet on Saturday and Sundays (parents choice) for 1.5 hours each session, and while the curriculum is not yet set, it will focus on such areas as Ancient Afrikan history; Black history in the western hemisphere including the documented history of the Afrikan presence in America over 40,000 years ago and a comprehensive treatment of the history of Afrikans in America up to current time; contributions of our people to the civilizations of the world including coverage of the thousands of significant inventions of Black people, past and present; self-esteem awareness; dealing with bullies and gangs; public speaking; table manners; respect for elders and authority figures; and many other areas. Parents may suggest any other areas that they would like to include in the curriculum.
The school will also include, on a voluntary basis with parental consent, confidence-building training through Black Martial Arts professionals in Norfolk and in Newport News who acknowledge the Afrikan origin of the martial arts. We will NOT teach religious/spiritual issues. However, for parents who wish to have their children introduced to traditional Afrika -based spiritual systems, we can facilitate that with trained Afrikan priests.
The school is not intended to be a substitute for regular academic schools, but is an adjunct to them. I do not propose to teach academic skills per se, such as reading, language, mathematics, composition, etc., unless we get qualified volunteers to do so. If we get qualified volunteers, we may consider adding a tutorial program. If at some point this effort takes root, it may well evolve into an academic school, but not at present. The school is not an Afrikan-based "Rites of Passage program, or Initiation program." The Imani Foundation, has, or had, such a Rites program for youth. Further, traditional Afrikan initiation programs for boys are typically very strenuous and dangerous. Traditional Afrikan initiation programs for girls are less onerous, but they also include sensitive training areas that we will not cover such as female menses issues, religious matters, housekeeping, etc.
The basic approach that we will use in this effort is one in which we build a healthy sense of self worth into the children that typically translates into them internalizing values that guide them in integrated settings in regular school and society and gives them a certain confidence about themselves as apart of the Black community that does not need to emulate other alien communities in order to live a meaningful and successful life.
The cost for each session will be held to a minimum, likely in the $10 per child/session range. Children from low-income homes will receive a discount. The instruction will be participatory so that each child gets many opportunities to grow and shine.
Following the tradition of the acclaimed Marcus Garvey Academy in Los Angeles, the school will shower each child with an outpouring of righteous love. Dr. Palmer of the Garvey Academy said that it is all about love and infusing in each child the belief that we EXPECT them to do well in life, coupled with our teaching skills. The Garvey Academy achieved fame a few years ago when their 3rd grade students totally outperformed the 6th grade students from a predominately white, wealthy private school, in academic tests. All of the Garvey kids came from the hood and were categorized by the LA school system as being “at-risk kids”. This pattern of success has been replicated in many other Afrikan-centered schools across the country. While our weekend school will not be a full-time one, I expect that we can accomplish our goals to rescue our kids from the current path of low self-esteem and consequent low academic performance and life styles flaws that seem to characterize many of our children today. All of the children will be greeted with hugs every session. Each child is precious and each child will be respected. Parents may overview our sessions, if desired. We would also like to include local and regional trips to such places as the National Great Blacks In Wax Museum in Baltimore, and local historical sites.
The likely venue is the House of Consciousness, but may also include local libraries. Parents who live on the Peninsula should contact me about a Peninsula location as well.
Thanks for your interest.

Ancestral Path Youth Weekend 'Schule' (School)
Ancestral Path Youth Weekend Schule I frequently get asked about child-rearing issues ranging from what to teach young Black kids to youth gangs to school work/dropouts, etc. While I am far from an expert in these fields, my personal experiences with independent Afrikan-centered schools such as our own former Kujichagulia Academy in Chesapeake, the celebrated Marcus Garvey Academy in LA, and the Watoto Schules in DC have shown me that those kinds of efforts have profound impacts on the kids in terms of improving their self-esteem, educational competence, behaviors and other benefits. Building upon those experiences, while not actually starting a daily school, I am proposing an alternative for your consideration. which is the Ancestral Path Youth Weekend Schule. The school will have Pre-teen (ages 7-12) and a Teen (ages 13-19) components for both girls and boys together. The classes will meet on Saturday and Sundays (parents choice) for 1.5 hours each session, and while the curriculum is not yet set, it will focus on such areas as Ancient Afrikan history; Black history in the western hemisphere including the documented history of the Afrikan presence in America over 40,000 years ago and a comprehensive treatment of the history of Afrikans in America up to current time; contributions of our people to the civilizations of the world including coverage of the thousands of significant inventions of Black people, past and present; self-esteem awareness; dealing with bullies and gangs; public speaking; table manners; respect for elders and authority figures; and many other areas. Parents may suggest any other areas that they would like to include in the curriculum. The basic approach that we will use in this effort is one in which we build a healthy sense of self worth into the children that typically translates into them internalizing values that guide them in integrated settings in regular school and society and gives them a certain confidence about themselves as apart of the Black community that does not need to emulate other alien communities in order to live a meaningful and successful life. Following the tradition of the acclaimed Marcus Garvey Academy in Los Angeles, the school will shower each child with an outpouring of righteous love. Dr. Palmer of the Garvey Academy said that it is all about love and infusing in each child the belief that we EXPECT them to do well in life, coupled with our teaching skills. The Garvey Academy achieved fame a few years ago when their 3rd grade students totally outperformed the 6th grade students from a predominately white, wealthy private school, in academic tests. All of the Garvey kids came from the hood and were categorized by the LA school system as being "at-risk kids".

While our weekend school will not be a full-time one, I expect that we can accomplish our goals to rescue our kids from the current path of low self-esteem and consequent low academic performance and life styles flaws that seem to characterize many of our children today. A ll of the children will be greeted with hugs every session. Each child is precious and each child will be respected. Parents may overview our sessions, if desired.

The AfRAkan Resurrection Story ... Wake Up Black People
Imhotep (Wisdom To You),
Part of the secular training of our AfRAkan ancestors enslaved in the US was to internalize their own "innate" sense of inferiority and to thank the euro god that the AfRAkan Captives had the "good fortune" to have been enslaved by the euro, thus saving them from "dark" AfRAkan cannibals. Our Ancestors were trained to believe that they did not have hair on their heads, but "wool." They were trained to believe that our dark skin was ugly and nasty; that our broad noses (not all indigenous AfRAkans have broad noses) were "deformed", and that we carried a natural animal-like offensive odor. And to this day, many of us STILL have those same biases against to our selves.

The AfRAkan Resurrection Story They Don’t Want You to Know
This is the very first “Creation” and “Resurrection” on record produced by man/woman, with regards to paying honor and divine respect to a “Creator of all mankind,” (the Supreme Being … Neter(GOD) was that of the AfRAkan people of the Nile Valley and Great Lakes region of Central, East and Northeast AfRAka. Since the original ‘Sacred Writings’ were produced by the AfRAkans approximately 3,400 years before The Old Testament, and more than 4,200 years before The New Testament, countless plagiarized versions of it have been written and published.
After reading this summarization of the AfRAkan Resurrection story, hopefully you’ll be inspired to do more research and learn more about OUR-STORY. Hopefully my AfRAkan Brothers and Sisters, you ask yourself why haven’t I heard this story before. I’ll tell you why, because somebody knows something about you that they don’t want you to know. (The Truth Will Set You Free…and they can’t have that).
The following story has been translated from the “Book of Coming Forth By Day and By Night”, ~ 5000 A.E. (AfRAkan Era) misconstrued by European scholars to be called (The Book of the Dead). To see even older evidence from between 10,000 – 5500 A.E., come back to AfRAka with me Summer 2011 or 2012 on the KemetNU / G&G Travel trip to Kemet (Egypt) where you’ll see the evidence on the walls, live in color…carved “3” inches in stone where the invaders from the North couldn’t erase the truth. But, if you never go see it for your own eyes, you’ll only be recalling 2nd and 3rd hand information ... so “blind that you can not see.”
Ausar, Auset, and Heru
It all starts with the first human representation on earth – Ausar and Auset (Not Adam and Eve). Ausar and Auset dedicated themselves to the welfare of humanity and sought to spread civilization throughout the earth, even as far as India and China.
During the absence of Ausar from his kingdom, his brother Set (Setan/Satan) had no opportunity to make innovations in the state because Auset was extremely vigilant in governing the country, and always upon her guard and watchful eye for any irregularity or unrighteousness.
Upon Ausars return from touring the world and carrying the teachings of wisdom abroad and rejoicing throughout the land, one day after his return, through his lack of vigilance, he became intoxicated and slept with Set’s wife, Nebthet, as a result of the union with Ausar, begot Anpu.
Set, who represents the personification of evil forces, plotted in jealousy and anger (the blinding passion that prevents forgiveness) to usurp the throne and conspired to kill Ausar. Set secretly got the measurements of Ausar and constructed a coffin. Through trickery Set was able to get Ausar to “try on” the coffin for size. While Ausar was resting in the coffin, Set and his assistants locked it and then dumped it into the Nile River.
The coffin made its way down the Nile where it became embedded in the earth and from it grew a tree with the most pleasant aroma in the form of a DJED or TET. The TET is the symbol of Ausars BACK. It has four horizontal lines in relation to a firmly established, straight column.
This King was out walking and as he passed by the tree, he immediately fell in love with the pleasant aroma, so he had the tree cut down and brought to his palace. Auset, Ausars wife, the personification of the life giving, ‘Mother’ force in creation and in all humans, went in search of Ausar. Her search led her to the palace of the King where she took a job as the nurse of the King’s son. Every evening Auset would put the boy into the “fire” to consume his mortal parts, thereby transforming him to immortality. Fire is symbolic of both physical and mental purification. Most importantly, fire implies wisdom, the light of truth, illumination and energy.
Auset, by virtue of her qualities, has the power to bestow immortality through the transformative power of her symbolic essence. Auset then told the King that Ausar, her husband, is inside the pillar he made from the tree. He graciously gave her the pillar (DJED) and she returned with it to Kemet (Kmt, Egypt).
“The Resurrection”
Upon her return to Kemet, Auset went to the papyrus swamps where she lay over Ausars dead body and fanned him with her wings, infusing him “WITH NEW LIFE.” In this manner Auset revived Ausar through her power of love and wisdom, and then they united once more. {‘Black woman know the power bestowed upon you’…you’ll never see this power in a Eurasian translation because of how they viewed women…let alone a Black woman}. From their union was conceived a son, Heru, with the assistance of the (g)ods (Djehuti) and Amen. {Have you ever wondered why you say Amen at the end of your prayers?}
One evening, as Set was hunting in the papyrus swamps, he came upon Auset and Ausar. In a rage of passion, he dismembered the body of Ausar into 14 pieces and scattered them throughout the land. In this way it is Set, the brute force of our bodily impulses and desires, that ‘dismembers’ our higher intellect. Instead of oneness and unity, we see multiplicity and separateness which give rise to egoistic (selfish) and violent behavior. The Great Mother, Auset, once again sets out in search, now for the pieces of Osiris, with the help of Anpu and Nebthet.
After searching all over the world they found all the pieces of Ausars’ body, except for the phallus (penis) which was eaten by a fish. In Ancient Egyptian mythology, this loss represents seminal retention in order to channel the sexual energy to the higher spiritual centers, thereby transforming into spiritual energy. Ausar, Anpu and Nebthet remembered the pieces, all except the phallus which was eaten by the fish. Ausar thus regained (resurrected) life in the realm of the dead.
“Immaculate Conception”
Heru, therefore, was born from the union of the spirit of Ausar and the life giving power of Auset. Thus, Heru, the Savior who was bought to birth, as the light in heaven and sustenance on earth (Hmm…does this sound familiar). Heru represents the union of spirit and matter and the renewed life of Ausar, his rebirth. When Heru became a young man, Ausar returned from the realm of the dead and encouraged him to take up arms (vitality, wisdom, courage, strength of will) and establish truth, justice and righteousness in the world by challenging Set, its current ruler.
“The Battle of Heru and Set”
The battle between Heru and Set took many twists, sometimes one seeming to get the upper hand and sometimes the other, yet neither one gaining a clear advantage in order to decisively win. At one point Auset tried to help Heru by catching Set, but due to the pity and compassion she felt towards him she set him free. In a passionate rage, Heru cut off her head and went off by himself in a frustrated state. Even Heru is susceptible to passion which leads to performing deeds that one later regrets.
Set found Heru and gouged out his eyes. During this time Heru was overpowered by the evil of Set. He became blinded to truth (as signified by the loss of his eyes) {Hmm…”I was once blind, but now I can see”} and thus, was unable to do battle (act with MAAT) with Set. His power of sight was later restored by Hathor, (g)oddess of passionate love, desire and fierce power, who also represents the left Eye of Ra. She is the fire spitting, destructive power of light which dispels the darkness (blindness) of ignorance.
When the conflict resumed, the two contendants went before the court of the Ennead (g)ods {Company of the nine (g)ods who ruled over creation, headed by Ra}. Set, promising to end the fight and restore Heru to the throne, invited Heru to spend the night at his house, but Heru soon found out the Set had evil intentions when he tried to have intercourse with him. The uncontrolled Set also symbolizes unrestricted sexual activity.
Through more treachery and deceit Set attempted to destroy Heru with the help of the Ennead, by tricking them into believing that Heru was not worthy of the throne. Ausar sent a letter pleading with the Ennead to do what was correct. Heru, as the son of Ausar, should be the rightful heir to the throne. All but two of them (the Ennead) agreed because Heru, they said, was too young to rule.
Ausar sent them a second letter (scroll of papyrus with a message) reminding them that even they cannot escape judgment for their deeds; they too will be judged in the end when they have to finally go to the West (abode of the dead).
This signifies that even the (g)ods cannot escape judgment for their deeds. Since all exists is only a manifestation of the absolute reality which goes beyond time and space, that which is in the realm of time and space (humans, spirits, gods, angels, neters) are all bound by its laws. Following the receipt of Ausars’ scroll (letter), Heru was crowned King of Kemet (Egypt). Set accepted the decision and made peace with Heru. All the gods rejoiced. Thus ends the legend of Ausar, Auset and Heru (The Trinity…”The Holy Father-Mother-and Child”) not some (God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit) wiping out the woman from the picture. Remember, the Europeans had no respect for the woman, so to see AfRAkan civilizations being led by women and to see women treated with respect and honor was disgrace to the Barbarians from the north.
Conclusion:
The Resurrection of Ausar and his reincarnation in the form of Heru is a symbol for the spiritual resurrection which must occur in the life of every human being. In this manner, the story of the Ausarian Trinity of Ausar, Auset and Heru and the Kemetian Ennead holds hidden teachings, which when understood and properly practiced, will lead to spiritual enlightenment (Shetaut Neter).
To see these stories live in color for your very own eyes, join us on the KemetNu Summer 2011 or 2012 Kemet (Egypt) tour. You can’t dispute the evidence etched in stone which dates back to over 10,000 years ago.
