Dead Beat Men


If you look at the 1/1-10, “Who is the Original Man?”, you’ll notice how each characteristic mentioned within that Lesson is progressive. It’s starts off with “Maker” and evolves to the state of being “God of the Universe”. The last step before establishing one’s self as “God of the Universe”, a Man must first solidify himself as a “Father of Civilization”. In other words, it’s impossible to realize oneself as “God of the Universe” if we haven’t first realized the responsibility of “Fathering Civilization”…!

This is very important to understand because there are many males who believe that they can somehow manifest the ability of a True & Living God while simultaneously being neglectful of their own child(ren), AND indifferent towards children who lack a Father Figure in their life. It’s impossible to identify ourselves as Creator, if we haven’t successfully Fathered Creation. In street lingo: We ain’t never gon be shit if we ain’t takin care of our kids! When I say “takin care of”, I’m not talking about child support gettin garnished outcho check. I’m talking about being a Parent and playing an active role in our child(ren)s life! It amazes me how super intelligent many males try to come across, yet they aren’t intelligent enough to know it’s important to have a relationship with their own child(ren). -shakes head- Even if they don’t have a child, it’s still important for them to be available to children who lack a Father Figure in their life. A Father carries, gives, provides for, and protects the seed of ‘Life’. When a Man does not function in this capacity, he cannot be the Author of ‘Life’ itself; God of the Universe.

I was 20 when my first Queen was born. When I found out that my girlfriend was pregnant, I immediately told my Parents. Without batting any eye, my Ole Earth looked at me and simply said, “Well you know what you need to do.” Even though I had no clue what I needed to actually do, I did know I needed to be in my child’s life! Facing this unknown terrain, I felt scared, insecure and unprepared for Fatherhood, b.u.t. “in my own good time” (39/1-40) I began to find my way. I had no Manual. I had my Will, my Ole Dad, my Older Brother, and various other Men in my Life that served as a makeshift Reference Guide on what I should/shouldn’t do as a Father. Two years after the birth of my first Queen, I had my next Queen at the age of 22. Fast forward 15 years and I now cee the direct results of the time I’ve invested in my children. Keep in Mind that this Article is not a personal celebration of what a Man should already be doing as a Father. This Article is an appeal to those males who’ve yet to fulfill this natural role, for various “inexcusable” reasons.

I’ve known dudes who supposedly had Knowledge of Self who were given the opportunity to raise their own child(ren), yet they chose not to. Some of these dudes weren’t even capable of taking care of themselves let alone a child. They were grown ass irresponsible Adults who chose not to work, and had no place to stay. Some chose to neglect their child(ren) and pursue a relationship with some female, a female who’s not in the picture today! Some dudes were afraid of the responsibility, because deep down inside they think they’ll fail at being a Father. Other dudes were simply in and out of jail too much to be a stable Parent. Whatever their problem was and is, what they often strive to hide is the fact that their estranged relationship with their child(ren) is because of their own self imposed Parental Alienation. Even if there was/is a problem with their child(ren)’s Mother, they often don’t “give all they have and do everything within their power” to ensure they have a relationship with their child(ren) (40/1-40). Oftentimes they just rationalize sitting on their lazy ass by saying, “I’ll just wait til my child(ren) get older and come cee me.” -shakes head- You may hear these dudes talking about this Parental Alienation, b.u.t. it’s usually only for the purpose of soliciting for pity. You won’t hear these dudes honestly talking about how they chose to be a Dead Beat Man, and how they probably still aren’t being responsible for their child(ren). As I said, this is completely inexcusable and there is no way to justify abandoning our child(ren), ESPECIALLY if we call ourselves coming in the Name of the True & Living God! Personally speaking, I would never want something like that on my conscience, and I wouldn’t want to deal with the inevitable Justice of choosing “not to perform my duty” (19/1-40); a ‘primary’ duty because this responsibility starts “at home” with our family, and then must be shared “abroad” (14/1-14). So no matter how much Macho Math dudes try to spit, fast they can quote Lessons, or proficient they are in speaking other languages, all of that doesn’t mean shit if they can’t recite the last time they spent time with their own child(ren). And those of us who co-sign this behavior by willingly associating with these Dead Beat Men are equally responsible because we didn’t “speaketh to warn the wicked of their wicked ways TO SAVE HIS -and his child(ren)s- LIFE”! When it comes time for them to get served their Justice, we’re going to get served Justice right along with them! (19/1-40)

On the flip side, just yesterday on Fox News Detroit, there was a NEWS STORY about some guy named Thomas Wright who didn’t bring his son “Ja’lon” back to his Mother Lakeisha Leak for over a Month! Although Lakeisha said she gave Ja’lon to Thomas for a few days, she said that Thomas, AKA: Righteous Allah, didn’t bring him back because he’s a Five Percenter, and she doesn’t believe “their God”. She also stated that Thomas said he needed to protect Ja’lon to know the truth that he is the true and living God. Fox News tried to have a field day with this and put out an initial Article claiming a lot of misinformation about “The Five Percenters” (The NGE; The Nation of Gods and Earths). Instead of focusing on the Domestic Issue between these two young Parents, Fox News incorrectly labeled The Five Percenters “a Religious Extremist Group that split from The NOI (The Nation of Islam) in the 1960’s”. After a flood of phone calls from Gods/Earths and other People associated with this Nation to Fox News’ Kevin Rosenburg, Fox continued to update the Story until they eventually added a Public Statement issued by The Gods/Earths in D-Mecca (Detroit) that included the sentences, “It’s Leaders say it’s a God-Centered Culture that split from The Nation of Islam back in the 1960’s.” and “Fox 2 spoke with Local Members of the ‘Five Percenters’ who say their Culture promotes Family and in no way do they condone what Thomas Wright has done with his child.” I myself contacted Kevin Rosenburg yet was only able to leave a VM. I also spoke with an Officer at the Central Headquarters of the Detroit Police. The Officer informed me that they were still investigating the Incident and aren’t releasing any information about the Story right now.

This Story is troubling on many levels. First and foremost, ANY TIME there’s a missing child regardless if they’re Black, Brown, Red, Yellow or White, it’s a tragedy!! I know I speak for many that I hope this child, who actually has a physical disability, is safe. Another thing that troubles me is ceeing the dysfunction of our Families where we’re struggling to “advocate for one common cause”; raising our child(ren)! (8/1-14) That is also a tragedy because that oftentimes serves as a death sentence for the future. Lastly, I definitely didn’t appreciate how Lakeisha Leak, who was obviously misinformed about What our Nation teaches, to allow herself to be used as cannon fodder for Fox News’ personal attack against our Culture! Now Gods/Earths around the Country had to go into damage control mode to help clean up our public image. When I built with the God Life about this he made a very important point. He said, “If a Man who happened to be Christian robbed a Bank, the News would just say ‘a Man robbed a Bank’. If a Man robbed a Bank who had an affiliation with any Culture or Religion other than Christianity, the News highlights their Culture or Religion as if that were the reason they committed that crime.” Those of you who watch the news can definitely vouch for that journalistic inequality. I built with some Gods/Earths in that Region where this incident took place and was informed that Thomas Wright AKA: Righteous Allah, was only loosely affiliated with the General Body of Gods/Earths in D-Mecca (Detroit), and his actions proves this to be absolutely true. Although I do not know the specifics of what Lakeisha and Thomas were going through in their relationship, or the specifics of their Custodial Order, as “Five Percenters” (Gods/Earths) WE DO NOT teach or advocate child endangerment, child abandonment, child delinquency, or child neglect. We do teach and advocate that the children are our link to the future and must be nurtured, respected, loved, protected, and educated. We also teach that Family Unity is the vital building block of a Nation. For anyone who’s read my Articles, read my Books, watched my DVD and Youtube Videos, listened to my Online Radio Program, or checked out my Youth Mentor Program and Community Initiatives, you can cee that our Culture is clearly about Positive Growth and Development. We don’t teach or advocate Crime, Criminology, Gang Activity, or Gangsterism! We do advocate Righteousness and “teach Civilization to ALL THE HUMAN FAMILIES of the Planet Earth” (2/1-14). As I stated earlier, we don’t teach or advocate not to take care of your child(ren)! We likewise don’t teach or advocate that infants should be taken away from a Parent -UNLESS of course there is documented medical, substance abuse, or psychological evidence to corroborate their inability to take care of that child. Ultimately, we as a Nation of People, consider ourselves “Civilized”. According to our Cultural Curriculum, Civilization means "one having Knowledge, Wisdom, Understanding, Culture, Refinement, and is not a savage in the pursuit of happiness." (17/1-40) The acquisition and application of these qualities improve our lives and those around us. In fact, after we learn the meaning of Civilization, the very next lesson we learn is, “What is the Duty of a Civilized Person?” which states, “The Duty of a Civilized Person is to teach he who is savage Civilization, Righteousness, the Knowledge of Himself, the Science of Everything in Life, Love, Peace and Happiness.” (18/1-40)

In conclusion, I want to encourage those of you who take this Culture to heart to keep Positively Representing, and doing what you do!!! Keep doing the work "at home" with your Family, and reaching out to your Community Family "abroad" (14/1-14)!!! This is the rent we pay for our stay on Earth, and investment in a future!!!

Popa Wu; A 5% Story


If I could choose one word to describe this Documentary I would use “BANANAS”!!! From the time I put it into my DVD Player, until the final credits rolled, I was hooked!!! The God Khalik has been working on this Project for quite some time and I can cee why. He did a masterful job and in my opinion, ‘Popa Wu; A 5% Story’ is his greatest work to date!!! Independently released on his ‘Five Percent Stories’ Company, Cinematographer ‘Khalik Allah’ takes you on a captivating journey into the Mind of Wu-Tang Patriarch ‘Freedom Allah’ AKA Popa Wu. Painted over a musical canvass of Wu-Tang Production Specialist ‘4th Disciple’, Khalik uses his visual artistry to tell Freedom’s Story, “undiluted, mixed, or tampered with in any form” (9/1-14)! With Appearances from the Wu-Tang Clan, various other Wu-Tang Affiliates, Physical Family, and etc.., ‘Popa Wu; A 5% Story’ gives you an all access pass into the Chamber of Freedom Allah; a Chamber that only a few have had the privilege to cee. For all those who’ve always wanted to really know and understand the role and relationship Popa Wu has within the Wu-Tang Dynasty, this Documentary gives it up! In addition to this, it gives People an opportunity to explore the “Wu-Tang” Worldview in a way never before ceen on Film! For example, there’s a segment that explains the science behind Popa Wu’s Guest Appearances on a few of Wu-Tang’s Albums. Appearances that usually went completely “undetected” by the public’s naked eye! (8/1-40) Another example is a superb breakdown of How ‘The Nation of Gods and Earths’ (The NGE/Five Percenters) came to be; What is our Mission; and Who is the 5%, the 85%, and the 10%! For those who are in the know, one of the illest parts is a segment where RZA and Freedom are building about the science of the 33/1-40!

One of the things I immediately saw in this Documentary its seamless transition from one Surah in Popa Wu’s Life to the next -beginning as a man-child and growing to this present date. Sometimes when you watch a Story about someone, the Documentary tends to compartmentalize different segments of their Life. This definitely doesn’t compartmentalize nothing! It’s unapologetically about Freedom Allah and how the World came to know him as Popa Wu. Now I’ve had an opportunity to build with Freedom a couple times, and have ceen him in action on quite a few occasions. He’s from the Streets; a Brooklyn Baby, who was drinking wine at the age of nine. Prior to me ceeing this Documentary, if I were to describe Freedom as an element, I’d strictly call him “fire”! LOL Yes ‘Popa Wu; A 5% Story’ definitely captures this “fire”, FROM THE VERY BEGINNING I might add, b.u.t. it also shows the other elements that make him who he is. For all those who don’t know Freedom (Popa Wu), this Documentary is an excellent Introduction to who he is, and for all of you “Wu” Heads, you’ll definitely gain a better appreciation for Who, What, When, Where, and Why there even is a Wu-Tang Clan! ‘Popa Wu; A 5% Story’ is Entertaining, Educational, Raw, and of course Witty Unpredictable!!

For all those who’re interested in getting a copy, you can order it directly from the ‘Five Percent Stories LLC’ by emailing the God “Khalik Allah” at: khalikone@yahoo.com.


The 39th Annual Show & Prove Review
This years Annual Show & Prove was the first one I attended in about the last five years, and I was very happy and impressed with what I saw in our Nation. I traveled from Power Hill (Philly) to Mecca (Harlem) with three other Gods from my Family Tree; Life Justice, Unikue Thorough Allah, and I-Born Understanding. I-Born Understanding, a Compton California native who now resides in Las Vegas, traveled across the Country to be there and it was a pleasure to finally build with my Brother in the physical. in addition to having a chance to build with Life, it was also Peace to spend some time with my A-Alike 'Unikue'. We also met up with one of Life’s Educators ‘I-Freedom Born’, so I had a wonderful time with my Brothers. “There is nothing in comparison to the mental and physical power of” TRUE Brotherhood! (32/1-40)

Another thing that I really appreciated was getting a chance to meet various Gods, Earths, and Civilized People who I’ve directly/indirectly connected with through the Internet. I think it was equally important for them to cee/meet me because I’m definitely not a “Mystery God” (10/1-40). Although I’ve consistently used my A.S.I.A. Literary/Audiovisual Networks to Show & Prove how I actually apply Living Mathematics in my Family/Community, one of the downsides to using the Internet and these Social Networks is the high propensity for “Trick-Knowledge” (4/1-14) and Disinformation. For example, I can write about how I have a Prison Correspondence Project, b.u.t. when I did a video displaying hundreds of Correspondences from People in Correctional Facilities all of the Country, it Shows & Proves that I do. Being transparent and insuring that People can clearly identify the integrity of my work has always been of the upmost importance to me! So in regards to me, and anybody for that matter, if there’s ever a question of integrity, ALWAYS consider the source; “Who is questioning coming from, and what they actually doing?”

Using Social Networking mediums, People can remain anonymous and graft a whole new identity. So although you cee the image they project in this Cyber World, you don’t know what they really look like, where they really live, what they really do, how their family relations really are, or who really even knows them! Although NOT ALL PEOPLE who strive to remain somewhat anonymous are doing devilishment, there are a lot of People who are. With those who are, by staying anonymous (hiding), it’s easier for them to “steal, tell lies, and try to master” People (4/1-14). So it was good to cee People in person and build with them on the spot! For those who haven’t really ceen me in Mecca like that, KEEP IN MIND that I do travel up to visit our School. I personally like going on the humble, like on a Tuesday afternoon or something. On days like that I really get a chance to cee what kinds of Programs/Events are going on at the School and who’s actually there. This way I also have a better assessment of what we really need, what I can do, etc..!

In addition to the Science Fair and Educational Activities going on for the Youth, the Socioeconomic Aspect of the Show & Prove was indeed the Best Part to me! I loved ceeing the Entrepreneurialism going on and Gods/Earths supporting eachother and especially our Youth in our Educational and Business endeavors. Coming together for this "common cause" (8/1-14) is what it's all about!!

The ‘Goddesses Syndrome’ Review
I cee the whole “Goddess” Idea is gaining a lot of headlines within the Conscious Community once again. In observing this, one thing I’ve heard is the phrase “Goddess Principle” being tossed around. Now for those who don’t understand what “A Principle” is, a Principle is the Functional Law of a thing, it’s the rule or set of rules that governs how something operates. When it’s said that, “These are my Principles”, this means there are specific Laws/Rules that determines what you will or won’t do. A Principle ultimately defines what something is or is not. What distinguishes Hydrogen from Iron is not just atomic number/mass, it’s the rules that govern how these atomic numbers operate. When People loosely use the word ‘Principle’, they often don’t understand that they’re claiming to identify a rule that governs how something specifically operates. So it’s not about simply a Word. A Word (Name) denotes dominion (governance) over a specific “function”. So the question is really about Function, Operation, and Role in relationship to other people, places and things.

In “Principle”, a ‘Goddess’ must specifically function in a way that no other person, place, or thing including a Female, Woman, Mother, and God operates! As a Female, she must ask herself the functional question, “What does a Goddess do that ‘I’, as a Female, Woman, and Mother don’t already do?” She can’t name anything Maternal because quite naturally, Moms is already holding down that Principle. She can’t say anything about Fertility because that’s the natural role of a Female Principle. Another question that needs to be asked is, “What does a Goddess do that God isn’t already doing?” Anyone is gonna be hard pressed to answer that because the functions of Omniscience, Omnipresence, and Omnipotence are already covered... So I would simply ask a person who advocates a Goddess ‘Principle’ to “Explain something a Goddess does that NO OTHER person, place or thing, INCLUDING a Female, Woman, Mother, AND God doesn’t do?” You’ll learn a lot about them from how they answer that…

Peace
