Let's Do the Math


What looks like a simple equation: no trust = no unity; no unity = no strength; no strength = no power; no power = no protection, has been extremely difficult for the Black community to figure out.

Based on input from our first ‘Think Tank’, I’m asking the question, “why is it so tough to trust each other enough to unite around a common goal”?

Maybe its because we don’t know how to develop trust or know the answer to the question of how to attain unity.

So as food for thought I’m offering nine ideas to help figure out the answers; nine ideas, one a day starting 2-12 through 2-20, the date of our next ‘Think Tank’ at the Shrine of the Black Madonna bookstore. 
This is idea number two; just navigate to the previous day’s entry to pick up any you miss.

Excerpt from chapter six of: ‘Up From the Under, What We Should Do Next’

Unity centers on the accomplishment of a specified goal, the successful completion of a group objective or the desired outcome of a team effort. Unity forges power and affords protection by creating strength in numbers, resources and commitment. Unity is the mathematical equivalent of the squared principle, the construction industry’s hydraulic system or Nature’s very own colony of ants. The exponential force generated by combining individual power cells into a collective energy source, delivers a far greater impact than most objects or institutions can withstand or resist.
