Speaker 1 (00:02):
Peace, Peace, Welcome back to no frills, no thrills, And
of course you know it's nothing but further had them.
But we got a little bit of music, music playing
right now. But I need to talk with you today
about something that drives me a little crazy every December.
Let's get this music up off of here, all right.
(00:24):
We got the music out, all right. You know how
people cheat holiday ornaments. You pull them out with the box,
dust them off, hang them up for a few weeks,
then pack them right back away until next year. A
lot of folks are doing the exact same thing within
Guzasaba seven principles, all right. But here at Jiami Journey,
(00:47):
we don't do Kwanza, we live it. They was supposed
to be faster. You know, I'm trying. I'm trying to
get my chops back. But we need to strip away
this illusion that the Gregorian calendar owns our time. I'm
telling you right now, Monday isn't just Monday, it's emolja
(01:11):
to us. Thursday isn't just Thursday, it's ujamah. We have
scraped off those standard labels and replaced them with our
own cultural ideology. So I'm issuing a challenge I want
you to drop the camouflage, stop blending in. It's time
(01:32):
to rep your principles. We are in quans a season,
and we are asking you to come out and rep
yo principle real quick before we get into the dates.
If you feel in this vibe, if you're tired of
(01:53):
the fluff, want the real culture, hit the subscription button
like the show, share with somebody who needs to hear it.
And if you really want to help us, keep the
lights on and keep things popping off and keep this
mic hot, click that support link in the description. All right, now,
let's get back to business. This one is a season.
(02:21):
I'm challenging you to uplift our cultural ideology. I want
you to see which principal shows out the most. We're
hosting the celebration at the Millennial Community School on two
specific dates. First on December I don't know why I
say first on December twenty seventh, which is cool you
(02:43):
try to leave self determination. Then on the twenty ninth,
which is oujama right now. If you're a vendor, comes
set up shot on the twenty seventh with Vinnie from
twelve pm to six. On the twenty ninth, vendu from
three pm to six The ceremony for the for the
(03:04):
Culture to Rock Out is from six pm to eight
pm both nights. Now, vendors, you can stay open wide
the ceremony is going on. So that's to ask some
extra time for you. Now, I want to see which
crew runs deepest, right and listen, this isn't about buying
(03:25):
a T shirt to wear it once cut that habit
of disposable culture. Don't rock the shirt just for kwansa
rocket year round. Rock the colors on the days, right
as you see, brother, How how tim often do we've
got the cold? Monday is purple and it's Emoja. Tuesdays
(03:46):
indigold or dark blue, and that's Coolie Chaga Lia, which
is gonna turn out. I just want y'all to know
we're gonna turn out and turn up. So if y'all
want Coolie Chaga Lia to win, that's that's why y'all.
Wednesday is or is like blue, and it's for Ujima.
Thursday is green for Ujama, Friday is yellow for Nia's
(04:07):
Saturday orange for Kazumba, Sunday red for MONI. Now I
know that the twenty seventh is Coolie Chagaala, But I
want you to still rep your principle. You understand what
I'm saying. I understand that the twenty ninth is ujama,
but I still want you to rock your principle. You understand.
(04:29):
Come in the house and we gonna see which principle
is holding up the culture. All right, Stop playing, start living,
stop waiting for permission to be who you are. Now
we gotta do a call to inaction. So y'all know
I'm big on in action. I'm saying, he who tries
(04:50):
to shine for shine everywhere lights up nothing. He who
tries to shine everywhere lights up nothing. We're always he's
told to do more, more, noise, more commitments. But your
power comes from what you refuse to do. So what
holiday obligation can you delete this year? What draining habit
(05:14):
can you cut? Don't do more? Just stop one thing
that distracts you from your purpose. The ancestors will meet
you in that silence peace. This is brother hot Tim,
and I am out
