Looking into the face of a Black woman fully coiffed extends the legendary proportions of the mythical edge Black women hold amongst women of the world, who stood and still stand in awe of the entrance Black women make into the worlds of women the world wide. Terror, or fear is not associated with African women, nor follows them like terror has followed white women around the globe.
The stories white men created to disassemble the integrity and the enormous energies and influential histories of Africans has long proceeded our entrance into the work place, people's lives, and the countries they live in, but the depth of the spiritual powers of African peoples throughout our Diaspora is obvious, active, and cannot be contained, or truly suppressed; not even by African people themselves. Such mysterious wisdom, capabilities in the realms of talent, access to Realms of Ancestral powers, potential and the old powers of our spiritual teachings, knowledge, and spells alive within our DNA, the marrow of our bones, musics, and our tribal bloodlines creating substance in the worlds spun from the Word.
When Bob Marley sang, "... there is a natural mystic flowing through the air..." he was talking to the collective African spirit about the African spirit echoing the sound of the Gathering of Ancestors from all the people upon the Earth, our Mother! - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 11.7.13 |
