Because of proclaiming my status as a Creditor, I have learned the importance of our culture, loyalty to my Indigoes people, and self-educating. At 23 years old, I received my introduction to the power of knowledge that I have inherited from my Creator. Ear hustle bit and pieces from my elder has start my own path.

Culture itself keeps me in tune with the Universe, My Ancestors in the spiritual realm and my true essences. Living by truth, peace, balance, order, law, harmony, justice, and morality are all concepts from MA’AT, which my ancestors laid out for us to achieve everlasting life. MA’AT, which is a deity in Egyptian MDW NTR, which is our native tongue and writings. If you ever seen the Egyptian Ankh you know it represent enteral life one side being the feminine side and the other being masculine side, along with the oval shape at the top resembling the females womb and the bottom half meaning the man’s shaft.

As the old saying goes, knowledge is power but knowing something is only half the battle. No one ever told how or when to apply the information to benefit in daily life. This is why self-education must start from home first, through the family, through the community, until it spreads like a wild fire. Anything that you learn after are just branches off the foundation that is already established at home. Without the foundation of education and knowledge, you are falling in the old saying categories again, "WHAT YOU DO NOT KNOW CAN KILL YOU", and "IF YOU DO NOT STAND FOR SOMETHING YOU WILL FALL FOR ANYTHING". I said all of that to say I had found my rock to stand on before I could venture out into the understanding of others. At home is where it start first so then anything that you learn after are just branches off the foundation that is already

    My family has a saying that we all use religiously “FITFO” it stands for Figure it the F*** Out. You don’t, or at least shouldn’t, have to be told how to do everything. Be responsible for your own skills and abilities. It’s like they say about learning a language, “you learn it best by submission”. You pick up all the slang and different accents by hearing the language spoken, not in the classroom. Same in many aspects of life. You may learn generalizations about some things from being taught, but the best wat to really learn all of the small things and specific details is by going out and doing

  • An Analysis Of Barre Toelken's Seeing With A Native Eye

    949 Words  | 2 Pages

    In Barre Toelken’s essay “Seeing with a Native Eye: How Many Sheep Will It Hold?”, the ways in which one culture perceives another and the criteria used to make judgements are explored. Toelken states “I think I can say something about how differently we see things, envision things, look at things, how dissimilarly different cultures try to process the world of reality” (10-11). In essence, Toelken is alluding to how different cultures will interpret their experiences and rituals according to their own set of beliefs and practices. This complicates situations in which the experiences or rituals are not comparable across cultural lines; someone will always be missing an aspect or a significant purpose if they do not try to “see it as much as possible with the ‘native eye’” (12). In other words, one must immerse themselves in the culture they are analyzing, while not comparing it to their own cultural experiences. One must consider all the cultural implications of that specific culture when wondering why things are done a certain way. Toelken provides

    Twentieth century America has become a time for attacking and destroying the most malignant of our social diseases. At the forefront of these attacks has been racism. Although nationalistic and bigoted sentiments existed in America prior to the founding of Jamestown, it was not until the civil rights movement of the 1960's that racial equality became more of a reality than a dream. But as African-Americans, Hispanics, Asians and other people of color struggled to regain their cultural identity, the rest of the population was assimilated into an all inclusive racial category known as "white."

  • It's Time to Get Rid of Standardized Tests

    1416 Words  | 3 Pages

    Education has always been in existence in one form or another. As each child is born into this world regardless of who or where they are born, life lessons immediately begin. He/she will learn to crawl, walk, and talk by the example and encouragement of others. Although these lessons are basic in the beginning they evolve as the child grows. However, the core learning method of a child does not change. Learning from others, they will watch, listen, and then act for themselves. Thomas Jefferson believed that an education would lead men and women to the ability to be self-governed and become positive contributors to society (Mondale & Patton, 2001). Today, we can see how true this is by the examples of others. Those that are given the opportunity for education are more likely to find jobs and develop skills that not only improve a community, but influence the economic growth of their nation (Ravitch, Cortese, West, Carmichael, Andere, & Munson, 2009, p. 13). On the other hand, if an education is not provided to individuals, they can become a hindrance to that nation’s growth.

    Culture often means an appreciation of the finer things in life; however, culture brings members of a society together. We have a sense of belonging because we share similar beliefs, values, and attitudes about what’s right and wrong. As a result, culture changes as people adapt to their surroundings. According to Bishop Donald, “let it begin with me and my children and grandchildren” (211). Among other things, culture influences what you eat; how you were raised and will raise your own children? If, when, and whom you will marry; how you make and spend money. Truth is culture is adaptive and always changing over time because

Culture as define by Shiraev and Levy (2013), “Is a set of attitudes, behaviors, and symbols shared by a large group of people and usually communicated from one generation to the next” (p. ). In other words, we are a product of what has been handed down to us from the generations before. However, culture is evolving and it changes all the time. Hence the reason, no one group has a unique culture, since we are all influenced by each other’s way of life. As a result of this influence, we form relationships with people we know little about and share our values and beliefs with each other. Thereby creating a cross-cultural mix.
