Insight Into The Occupy Movement

by Young Che on December 10, 2011

This video as well as the facts it makes easily digestible to the masses remain timely and offer insights into the root problem here in America and globally. The problem will not resolve itself and the more people willing to wake up to the truth and refuse to be lulled back to sleep the closer we get to pushing through this troubled time in our collective journey through this “so-called” life. The American Dream. Well worth your time watching – Parts 1 and 2 are below:

via: DisInfo

The official description of the film:

The AMERICAN DREAM is a 30 minute animated film that shows you how you’ve been scammed by the most basic elements of our government system. All of us Americans strive for the American Dream, and this film shows you why your dream is getting farther and farther away. Do you know how your money is created? Or how banking works? Why did housing prices skyrocket and then plunge? Do you really know what the Federal Reserve System is and how it affects you every single day? THE AMERICAN DREAM takes an entertaining but hard hitting look at how the problems we have today are nothing new, and why leaders throughout our history have warned us and fought against the current type of financial system we have in America today. You will be challenged to investigate some very entrenched and powerful institutions in this nation, and hopefully encouraged to help get our nation back on track.

I’m Going IN!!!!!

GENROSITY

God made me for this moment. I LOVE GIVING. Time. Money. Art.

FEAR

I fight this monster everyday. The fear of what others think about us is debilitating.

FACTS

I love this. “Just the facts ma’am.” If that’s the case then we’ve lost humanity.

DIGNITY

I spend a lot of time in the projects of the City That Care Forgot, but what I’ve learned is that the people didn’t Forget To Care.

ROOM TO READ

Reading has to be pushed everywhere. It can’t be the forgotten art.

MEANING

Do it for Yourself. I’m back on my MeShit.

EASE

I can’t remember what anything smells like, let alone roses. My nephew was speeding through life until he fell into my life. Both of us were forced to take a step back from our individual lives. It looks different from the outside. Thank you Elizabeth, for encouraging me to look within.

CONNECTED

After being “forced” to take a step back from my life the phone didn’t ring as much (except for bill collectors) and I realized how disconnected I was from the people in my life.

RE-CAPITALISM

With the economy in shambles, everyone has to rethink our approach to business. Consumers have no money to spare. How do you justify your rates?

VISION

I know the Way. TRUST ME. I just need to figure out how to illustrate it better.

ENRICHMENT

Every time you speak, we get better as a result.

1%

This is why our children matter. They are the Tribe within the Tribe.

SPEAKING

You can’t overestimate passion.

ATOMS

Talk is cheap.

EXCELLENCE

Should we strive for anything less?

MOST

Mos Def

STRENGTHS

Know Thyself

RIPPLE

Start In Your Pond. Then jump into mine.

Attracting Power 4.1

November 12, 2009

Every human being is like a magnet constantly attracting things and other beings into their lives. The other day I stopped by the New Orleans Public Library in order to return a couple of books and check out some more. As usual I started out in the Sci-Fi section. I can’t seem to shake this [...]

Our Journey

November 11, 2009

The real journey that we all must make is the journey within. We must all travel deep within our own selves in order to learn all there is to know about the universe that we are a part of. We all are products of the universe in which we were created. If you hope for [...]
