We'll be resurrecting an old AK class due to the interest expressed from various Kmtyws interested in repatriation.
What topics would you like to see covered in a course on repatriation? We are putting together the course outline now. :hello:

[kwaku omowale]

jobs/income opportunities
Kmtyw culture/ how to fit in/ how to meet people
*CITIZENSHIP*
connections with others that have already repatriated
laws and rules that are needed
housing
land purchase
expected everyday issues
issues not expected in everyday life
any government expectations
how to move your stuff
cost of living
expectations vs reality of living
travel to different countries
where to find help for multiple different issues
ways to invest

[Ɔbenfo Ọbádélé]

Sounds like you've been giving this some thought!

The repatriation will come more in the form of spiritual with very limited physical freedom. The Berlin conference took care of that. I know they are telling about blacks you got your independence back, but the truth of the matter its pseudo-independence. Hell, even here in America they tell us slavery is over. You are free. Ha ha yeah right. You know I damn near can't blame the white man for his pseudo freedom he has handed out. I mean he has killed us by the billions. He has taking everything we once owned, and we run around here talking about lord, Jesus, and god. Shit he made up. We are always demanding respect for the white man. This is probably what the white men tell themselves. Respect them. Why?  They are too dumb to figure out the lie we told them a long time ago. We literally have the fear of god in them, and they don't even know that god is the code for us.

Bro the caps and asterisks were used as a section header.

Maybe it means that the section headers are someone's property... Lol

Omawali;249129 wrote: Yes. I understand your reasoning for the use of the caps, but what I was trying to do was give a little knowledge about caps when it's comes to names. The little secret the governments around don't tell their "citizens " is that they are property of the government. I have a business, and the name of my business is in all CAPS. My name is in upper and lower case letters, it's because I own it. If you look at all your government issued I.D. your name is in all caps. As soon as you are born your mother sign you over to the government without her knowledge. E.g signing papers for a birth certificate, SS card, and so on. Your birth certificate is a stock bond.

My brother...this is what you wrote:

This is not warranted calling someone a slave (especially if they are not from a Slavic country but that's another topic). The use of the caps is clearly used in this case as a section header which is not uncommon.   It has nothing to do with being someone else's property at all and even if it did do you think your intention of trying to teach would be well received?  If you read his email in context he is actually intending to repatriate which is in all honesty an indication of his mentality as a Kmtyw and we draw a clearer indication the remainder of his email more than assuming on a word spelled in all caps.  

I see you had good intentions but sometimes it can be missed by wrong assumptions.  Let's refrain from name calling and let's grow together.

Respectfully your brother

I can't tell you if my ancestors were the ones who were already here and they killed them off or if they came by slave/prisoner ships. Also let me let you in on a little secret, We (Afrakans) inhabited all the continent s. They came and took them from us, so then if you call the land they took from our ancestors Slavic, then the land you are is Slavic country.

Peace my brother. We are in agreement that using of names here is welcomed.

ahh mannn!! my internet just came back today, and i wanted to have some fun with Omawali.

how about expat positions, volunteer positions, marrying into an Kmtyw culture (Kmtyw marriage in general), being able to discuss the differences in areas you know (i like quiet and others may like noise and some may be in the middle), how to cope with your american (or eureurasiaan) mentality in an Kmtyw society, food, education for children and adults. after all of that, we would still need a session for questions and answers.

Thank you for reviving this class!

Something I would like to see covered is how a repatriate who feels they are being called to become a diviner/initiated into a spiritual system should go about heeding that call.

I still have a lot of research to do, I'm watching the Foundations of Kmtyw Thought classes and will be spending more time reading the Spirituality section here, but all of this is new to me (in this incarnation at least lol) and if any pointers could be given on who to talk to and how to do it respectfully that would be very helpful!

Or maybe I am overthinking this and it's not all that complicated? Haha.

Peace.

• How do relationships usually work? Is there "dating"? Do people use matchmakers? Do men usually approach women? Are diviners the ones usually consulted to check if the ancestors approve of the couple or is there another spiritual consultant for that?
• How long of a financial runway should one bring with them to live off of while getting settled? (Ex: Bring 3 months worth of money for food, shelter, clothing, water, transportation, and other fees.)
• How do I find housing in an "urbanized"/city setting? Are there contractual lease or rent agreements? What are the steps to getting housing built in a more "rural" setting?

All good questions. The course should serve well to address them.    Now when you learn you gotta come back and teach us...

Is repatriation only to Kmt. Is there anyone interested in moving to and building up Haiti? It may be an easier transition because it is still in the Western Hemisphere.
