Kamitic Magic. The Sequel to Annu Publishing's best seller The book of Knowing the Manifestations of Ra Again
Viewing this from the sun, our course is plain. We must find the way to the peace within us from which we can move as we should. We must defeat the handkerchief head within. We must overcome the negative imaging within. We must overcome the enslaved within. We must overcome the aggressive and undirected within.We must overcome the self destructive within. Mentally, physically, spiritually. Each one of us individually. Then all of us collectively. There is no new answer, nothing new under the sun. But for that we need to know who we truly are, within.I know. It sounds impossible. But I am hopeful. I have faith. It must be possible, for if it is not, then our children's children are doomed to life as niggas, hoes, and negros. Whether you believe it or not. And the world is destined for murder at the hands of the self hating, self destructive minority ruling as if it was the majority because of the apathy and fear which grips those who could change it all....

I have been thinking about this for a minute. You don't know how difficult this is for me. I love Another View from The Sun. The title describes exactly what it is that I do to decide my topics, the manner and presentation of of the presentation of truth. It is the meditation I do to maintain my spiritual work in life.
That said it is time for something new, some thing different for me and for you if you follow me. Though this has been a highly successful blog by any measure, all things must die in the cycle of life.
Let me say again, I know this has been a highly successful blog. People all over the world have read it. High People, low people and every body in between. Famous and not so famous people have graced this pages. I've been there with with my blog getting picked up by msnbc feeds, political sites, financial sites, and critical race sites. I've averaged thousands of clicks a month. Today is a far, far cry from the beginning when I saw only three clicks for the entire month just two years ago. It's a far cry form the few readers I saw in Jan. and Feb of 2007.
I guess what I'm saying is that while every body talks about readers, Another View grew them by discussing some of a lot of things under the sun. And I let you see the results, I didn't just say it. Remember the days when I had a counter at the bottom of the page? And now I've got the feed at the side so that you can see how world wide this blog is. And the hits are much more. I could put more feedits and get more different servers...
So why am I doing this? Because it is time. My goals with this blog have been achieved I wanted a following. Got it. I wanted to say things people listened to argued with. Got it.
I've other goals. It's time to achieve them...And for that I need a new platform... What are they?
That's all? sho it ain't mo? And 30 a day represents a 400% increase over George Bush Jr, lovingly referred to as Shrub by those of us who wish him well in the retirement that has bought and brought us so much joy. (Purchased with all our pain experienced while he and The Dick tried to create the Republican Oligarchy)
I guess that's really just 30 a day the Black Suits and ear wires consider legit. There's gotta be more. Or maybe that's just the they'll admit to. They don't want to admit to more and that it's taxing their resources...
If this ain't proof of the lack of a post racial life in America after Obama. I mean the market's at 9,000 plus. This country and arguably the entire world was pulled back from the financial brink of disaster or world wide socialism at the very least and they still want his head more than any other president in the history of the united states...
Hi my name is Bubba, my company was saved by Obama's financial meltdown recovery plan , and I'm here to say he's a racist fool who was not born in the united states, is a socialist, and will lead America to ruination. We need him out or we need to kill him. I'd like that UZI right there. And how do you send an email to the president again?
Mark it down. Cause that's how the fools are seen when viewed
Rush you know about. And those other fools(whomever they may be). But this cat here. He's looking for the cake, ya mama's drawers, your wife's, your girls'(both while ya daddy or your are in them), your husbands' life, time and energy.
He wants it all. I get so much in the box...Got this Color of Change.org's attempt to remove Mr. Beck.
I'd say it's about time. Especially when it is so far removed from reality. Has Mr. Beck heard that the Gangsta President stopped 48 million in MANDATORY funds to HBCUs? Probably. Like most of us have. But lets have a listen to Mr. Beck and Color of Change's response right after...
FOX's Glenn Beck: "This president has exposed himself as a guy over and over and over again who has a deep-seated hatred for white people ... this guy is, I believe, a racist." Beck is on a campaign to convince the American public that President Obama's agenda is about serving the needs of Black communities at White people's expense. It's repulsive, divisive and shouldn't be on the air.
I mean have you heard about all the government money white folks been gettin' because of the Gangsta President? Bail outs and the like? How the black unemployment rate is twice white folks? How we been hit so much harder by this recession?
Huh? Of course you have Mr. Beck and didn't care. Wouldn't serve your racist agenda.
If you good readers of this blog are into campaigns to stop the racist diatribe, hit the link
If not, just don't watch his idiot self. Like me. He ain't down with the color of change. Obviously, especially when his words are heard from up here next to the sun.
You remember the first time you saw something that was truly courageous? You might have even thought it was fool hardy.
What if somebody told you that you might be able to live the dream you've had since a child, if you could run full speed at a brick wall with the possiblity that you might injure yourself in doing so?
Would you? Could you?
Broderick Brick Johnson did. 6'2" 275lbs at weigh in of the European Football Combine held at Aim Fitness in Charlotte NC. After measurement, he jumped over the tape markings twice for 38 in vert. (yes incredible.)
Organizer said good job-great. I believe he may have said outstanding. You've got to realize this man looks like a tank. I believe the words on the street go exactly like the cat at the gas station out side Charlotte said as we walked out the door... That's a big Motherfucka.
He then broad jumped 9.5 couldn't stick the landing and then did 9 feet for valid mark sticking landing.
Again good job said the organizer.
He then did a 7.7 and 7.8 three cone or L. (which we haven't done in 4 months) And then he did a 4.8 short shuttle.(Brick has been slightly nicked up and we decided to protect the knee and not put too much torque on it which slowed him a little.(7.2 and 4.53 are his PRs in those with me.-some you see on his highlight reel)Besides which he had the wrong shoes and did the drills in track spikes with out the spikes which provide NO LATERAL MOVEMENT SUPPORT. If he had gone as fast as he could have, then he could have broken his ankles.
Great agility said the organizer.
Then it was time to run at the brick wall. The track was rubberized surface with only 7-10 yards of stopping distance. Yes for all you sprinters out there only 7-10 yards. Run 40 as fast as you can into a brick cinder block wall to live your dreams.
Now that's a game a chicken with greatness. Brick didn't blink. But I on the other hand. I was afraid.
If you don't sprint then you don't understand speeds involved in gettin' this big BI moving and stopping. He could pull something. He could have hurt himself just hitting the wall and bouncing off if he couldn't turn. Look there's a reason sprinters take at least a third of the distance they sprint to stop. (100M-30M, 60-20M) You've seen them on t.v. run have way around the curve after 100M dash. Up under the stands in to huge pads after the 60M)
Here? Nothing but Bricks for Brick.
I told him the only way he could do this was to shut it down at 30, hell I wanted to say 20 yards, but I knew he'd never do that. He had to get this.
Let me say that I thoroughly enjoyed the organizers and humbly accepted their gracious hospitality. I no way mean to belittle or talk about them. They ain't nobody and Brick ain't either.
Yet.
And we all got to do what we got to do to get it. Period. I hope they expand into a world class facility. They do a great job of providing truthful reporting of scores. Honesty and integrity in the scout game is hard to find I'm finding.
Yes Brick is would be an elite DE in the league with incredible hand movements and an endless assortment of moves and incredible speed and agility. Yes he wowed them as he would anybody who knew what they were looking at. And that's before he threw down any Hawk intensity and ferociousness. But no one knows this. And this Brick wall was just an obstacle.
He flew at the wall cut it off after 30 yards and glided to a 4.9. (TT: Their Time and MT:My Time).
I could see it in his face, feel it in his spirit. Second run, more intensity. I watched my mark at 26 yards and yelled CUT IT OFF! He glided. 4.9 TT, 4.75 MT.
He then benched 26x225 with FULL EXTENSION. Not the 3/4 extension you see on NFL Network. The organizer was beaming smiling hugging him. What are you a DT? a cat who 6'6 had been to camp and trains there asked as Brick got up from the Bench.
Naw DE Brick said.
That was really good, the guy said.
Brick wasn't satisfied. We didn't say any thing but Brick was merely summoning energy using martial art scream and bringing 27 down to his chest to bounce it and keep going when the organizer took it from him. The organizer did right as he understood it. I have no problem with it. I was very happy with 26.
They then asked me to warm him up again to run a 20. I rubbed him down, reinvigorated his legs with accupressure and he ran...
2.68 MT first time. 2.8 TT
2.77 TT and 2.75 MT
Amazing for a man who had just been released from Doctors care that very day and who had not worked(out) in two weeks.
This man is a Beast!!!!!
He deserves an NFL camp. He will not disappoint. There will be a happy team one day. His get off is rare. Period. Power, explosion, intensity, desire, martial art hand movement-punch power, balance, incredible agility on every snap.
His slogan? Any body, Anywhere, Any time...Can get the business. It was on his shirt he wore after the work out. As he walked out at the end of his day the organizer read it aloud and said....
See, here it is. Right here. And I've been saying for a while it was coming. Do you believe me now?!!!
Oh and Oil was down 2 bucks today. And still going down. They blamed it on consumer index numbers.
Riiiiiiiight.
How bout it went like this.
Rich bitch picks up phone: Party's Over. Unwind the position.
Trader, who knows there's no fighting the truth, says It was a good run.
They both hang up slowly and look out the window. The scene's repeated over and over all across America. And the more it does the more the price of oil drops...And here's the secret. Do it slowly(thus the unwinding so that alot of money is not lost--a run of oil exiting would drive the price down suddenly. Every body does it slowly like good conspirators.)
Still that was them...
And me?
I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING.
Can you dumb muthafuckas hear me now?(Yes and Big Oil is filled with muthafuckas for what they do to your mothers)
Even from up here next to the sun? And AM I LOUD AND CLEAR?!!!!
You see, you really think I was joking. Price of Gas is creeping up again. Big Oil's getting greedy. Only a few dollars from that 2.50 a gallon gas pressure point in this economy. Perhaps Big Oil's approach is going to be erratic short swings in to dangerous plus $70 a barrel territory.
Not.
Regulation will come long before this is the established Modus Operandi. Probably the worst thing that could have happened for Big Oil(OPEC, EXXON and every other multinational Oil company in America, The Speculators, and the Refiners) was the delay of the Health Care Vote because now the Gangsta President can focus upon them.
And if you think regulation is far off, then you don't know the Gangsta President...
He already done tole you. I mean his people done told you that he's concerned about the role of speculators in the high price of oil and therefore energy in America..
And here right in an article about the board looking into the Oil Scam, from the The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission in a report due out in about a week...They're going to expose the supply and demand lie.
A 2008 report by the main U.S. futures-market regulator that attributed oil-price swings primarily on supply and demand was based on "deeply flawed data," Bart Chilton, one of four CFTC commissioners, told the paper in an interview on Monday.
It is only a matter of time before the refinery game is exposed. (Oh oil down, cut back refining in to gas and heating oil so the price of both goes or stays up. Oh oil up? Produce as much as we need to make loot. See it would be different if the American Multinationals did own the overwhelming majority of refineries but it does.)
So different administration more aggressive approach. Bush's people would have never dug up that rock. These are watershed moments you're about to witness. Oil goes over 70 and stays there, look for a waterfall as the dam of regulation is busted and truth and righteousness, and regulation flows over the people.
Free the regulators, Free the people. Wash the Oil from the hands of the Refiners and Speculators.
I guess that's why they call you Skip. See you drop charges on cops who come to your house and treat you like they out their minds...
Presumably cause white folks, I mean cause Harvard, tole you to. And if they didn't, it's cause your name is already Skippy, I mean Skip.
Look Skip or is it really Skippy? I guess it doesn't matter, Skippy. Let me just say what I was going to. Look, Skip, I ain't got a damn thing in this world. The only thing I own in my own name is a 12 year old ford contour. I make less money per week than you spend on a good meal with friends. Ain't but one person in the whole world who calls me back right back and that's usually because she wants to know if I'm coming straight home or going to train after work. I got maybe three other people who call me on a regular and that's so I could train them. You get me?
I'm a nobody. If white folks cuffed and or beat me,as an aside, I tell you now they've done both, then white and black folks would say the little nigga probably deserved it. And wouldn't nobody but 4 black people truly give a flying duck onna pound for my big split head.
But you? You a somebody. And you got arrested in your home on classic profiling circumstances. Filed charges against the police force then dropped them.
Skippy. I mean Skip.
Look the power and truth of righteousness is not always for another to bear. Sometimes we become the ones who must so that others may.
Understand? And do you understand with all the power and strength your melanin created memories can give you?
Because I do. And let me tell you, if this fool had come in my house and acted as he did, and my lawyer was Charles Ogletree, and I was today's W.E.B. Dubois, then there would have been no confluence of stars in the sky that could have stopped me from carrying a lawsuit through.
As an aside, and as a last word, please white folk on the news and in the other media stop telling me this man worked teaching correct profiling, or how to not profile, or he taught against racial profiling or however else you want to put it.
WHATEVER ELSE THIS COP DID FOR A LIVING DOES NOT MEAN THAT HE WASN'T RACIST AND OR PROFILING AT THE MOMENT. NOR DOES IT LESSEN THE LIKELIHOOD THAT WAS BEING RACIST.
People act all the time in ways they shouldn't. This is America and that's probably the general rule rather than the exception. His job don't mean a damn thing.
Right Skip? Or was that Skippy? I forget.
You see cause my name is Kamau. And well since you here in my house, I think my already printed words all around you speak more than I ever can about me. And how my name would never be Skip.
That done. Let us turn to the man with the incredible name. Don Obama, Gangsta President Emeritus. I've seen the way Limbaugh and the foolish far right,( as an aside I guess I'm far left to them, but let me inform them I would just wish they continue to think of me as a nigga, as they already do, no doubt and call me one openly. I mean why hide? We're all American's after all.)Now I've seen how the far right is trying to say you attacked this cop for being stupid and tried to paint you as racist.
Huh? and I mean do mean WTF?!!! If this isn't a case of the Honkey calling the monkey a nigga, or the brother being called a nigger by the white man, or a brother acting like a man and being treated as a boy, I mean nigger boy.
Let's look at this for a moment. You questioned the cops actions as stupid and then made a statement about unquestionable and recognizable truth, racial profiling, which even the Supreme Court has said exists and even numerous studies have stated that Black and Latino males experience the highest rate.
And this was an attack? Bordering on the attack on the Novelty, token, Fire Men from NJ at the Sotomayor hearings? Let me ask you this, if the cop wasn't acting stupidly with the little old black man, Then what was he doing, I mean what in the world does it take for white folk to say something was racist, let alone stupid?!!!!! What tell me? Cause I sure as hell don't know. I'm still tryin' to figure that one out.
Wow and I do mean wow. In America, you can't even tell the truth if you're the President and you black.
see it's this thing. That walk. He did it right after the hour long press conference on health care. Didja see it when he was walking alone down the hallway after the questions? They showed it on BET in silence. Or was that One. I can't keep them straight. Whatever. Whoever. I just know the director knows black culture. The man walked that walk. He had just iced his detractors for a whole hour.
And for the record, the games people play almost had me. I thought there was a lotta money keeping America's universal health care from happening. When Don Obama said they only lacked a third of the budget to get this done. I said to my self, wow. They almost got me. So I know if they almost got me, then they almost got a whole helluva lotta people.
Only 300 billion? Shiii tax the wealthy until they got personal tax agents like so many of the broke and poor people who suffered under general George Shrub Bush's tax cuts had.
Please do and do it tomorrow.
Hell didn't one of the banks get a bigger bail out? And you wonder about the people who won't back this for themselves--for the American people.
But by the time he had said, this isn't about me, it isn't about breaking me. It's about the American people and properly placed the derisive juvenile pissing contest politics and in fighting in its very small place, I could feel the energy in America changed.
Universal Health care this session is a done deal.
And that walk... See you don't learn that in school. Relaxed, easy, calm, in control, ultimately powerful, beneficent to the powerless, magnanimity incarnate. You can't learn that from watching. You can't learn that from reading.
You only walk that way when you smite evil. When you help to heal all that you touch. You only walk that way when... you've seen Shaft... you've crafted your art on a ball court or two.. when you know your voice is a weapon and a tool for any loot you gettin' in your loot needed life. When you've loved and been loved by the woman of your dream when you are the father you've always wanted
And you ain't gotta be president to walk it. But lord when you are, then white people don't even understand it, though they feel it.
But I see ya black!!!! and I ain't gotta even be up here next to the sun... But I am.
And I believe they see you too.
Gangsta President Don Obama, keep stickin' that hand in yo' pocket and put that slight lean on as you point them toes up and stride, brah. Cause when you do, we feel the sun come out.

Heat of the Street, Spirit of the Ancestors. I unapologetically confront racism with my work and live as a black man in my life. Have no doubt no matter what you may feel as a result of reading my work that I love all people regardless of race or color. I must; for my divinity is at stake in every act of love uncomitted and no human pain is worth that. But that being said, I have no fear of dealing harshly with harsh realities and as such some things may be said which offend those of us who have not dealt with truth. When I discuss white folk, I am discussing those who view themselves as white before me, complete with all of their arrogance and priviledge and exercised power against my world. When I say black folks or some variation thereof I am discussing the mass of humanity which is the collective ancestor of slaves in this country. The interaction of those two masses walking through this race driven life is always the topic usually never discussed every where but here.
