It's Time

Alaafia All Who Read this.

This is a call, a call for every Hue-Man in the world. Especially us who live in the diaspora. It is a call as well for our families in the continent of Africa. I address us a Hue-Man, a term I have others use, we people of color, us descendants of Africans. To us in the diaspora, I call upon you, to build. We must build ourselves as a family, no longer divided, by isms and schisms. I am calling upon al those, who are teachers of our great story. teachers of academics. I am calling on all students young and old. I am calling on our elders, our children. Our politicians and statesmen. Our Doctors, lawyers, patients etc all. It's time for us to build ourselves as a people a nation. I am not calling to build an organization. I am calling for the building of our nation. It is time, as we approach this age
the changing of the guard if you will. It is time that again we rise to who we are chosen to be. I call upon our spiritual leaders, who we need desperately. Our priest and priestesses. It's time that we stop just talking, it's time we action. Build our nation, our people our brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, aunts, uncles, and cousins. Every organizer, web site owner, radio and television person. Singer, musician, every person who can't carry a note with a bucket. What I am saying is all of us. We  are like a wooden figure that is one held by a cord, but thrown down, seemingly broken in pieces. The cord however is still there. Only needing to be pulled and tightened up. It's time to pull that cord. I'm calling on the poets, the writers, the artist, and those who cannot draw a straight line. We are all one Hue-Mans. Let's sit let's meet let's plan and then action. No more just talking especially on the internet. You live in texas let's go to texas and build. You live in new york let's go to new yourk and build etc. let us be a family a nation. No more individualism, but communalism, family nation Hue-Mans. We can and we must. Those who are ready will come, those who are not will as well this is our destiny. We in the diaspora, were brought here for a reason, we have learned a lot. At this time I will not say all that we have learned, but we came for a reason, and now it is time to put that reason into action, the lessons we have learned. We are no longer interested in building our own enterprises and kingdoms, it is now about us as a people a nation. We call upon our sisters, and our mothers to inspire us and also lead us without you we are nothing. We call upon our brothers to inspire and lead us without you we are nothing. It's Time
