Newbeing, pronounced with a silent ‘g’ in the speech of many African American vernacular English speakers, echoes the ancient glory of the Nubians. This term signifies a revived consciousness. It is a call to heal from Transgenerational Enslavement Trauma and personal woes. A Newbeing is more than an idea—it is a testament to the transformation of an Endoginous American who has faced and healed deep historical wounds and personal traumas. It stands for ethics, community, prosperity and thriving health. Thus, it is urgent for every Endoginous American to adopt this identity for a better existence.
Decolonizing Our Minds
Understand that to decolonize one’s mind is both thrilling and hard. There is joy in reclaiming our identities, questioning old narratives and transforming into our highest and most noble selves. It is an exploration to retrieve hidden histories and reshape norms. This journey brings a deeper understanding of shared humanity, ignored histories and future prosperity.
Hardship, however, shadows this excitement. Confronting painful truths, breaking entrenched beliefs, and facing a world that oppose our collective evolution demands courage. This path may result in moments of isolation or a sense of being adrift in communities and families stuck to dominant stories. Yet, the rewards—a profound self-awareness, genuine connection, and collective strength and prosperity—make this struggle worthy.
Therapeutic Steps for Decolonization
Take up these and other healthy tasks for personal and communal renewal:
1. Storytelling and Listening Circles: Create places for sharing tales, ancestral and personal, uplifting visions of the future. This nurtures respect and belonging.
2. Critical Reflection: Examine your beliefs and biases regularly. Journal or talk guided by purpose. Expose and challenge deep-seated norms.
3. Cultural Immersion: Engage with decolonized practices, languages, and arts. Reclaim roots and foster prosperity.
4. Education and Awareness: Delve into literature, films, and workshops that critique colonial histories and celebrate triumphs. Arm yourself with knowledge for deeper talks and decisive actions.
5. Activism for Social Justice: Join local movements against systemic injustice. Volunteer, advocate, and support Newbeing-led causes.
6. Mindfulness and Healing Practices: Embrace meditation or traditional healing. Ground yourself while navigating the complexities of decolonization and its people.
7. Create New Therapies and Practices: Unleash our innate creativity. Develop new ways to heal rapidly and precisely.
The journey to decolonize is twisting and tough, but it leads to an authentic, reconciled, shared humanity. This ardent labor is love for ourselves and our community.
Healing from Transgenerational Enslavement Trauma and Personal Trauma
Healing from Transgenerational Enslavement Trauma and personal traumas is not just a personal duty but a community necessity. In mending our spirits and reclaiming our legacy, we forge a stronger future for ourselves and the coming generations, turning pain into a testament of resilience. Love triumphs. Our reality shines.
Healing is key to embracing the Newbeing identity. It means addressing both personal and generational traumas. The scars of enslavement have created cycles of fear and pain allowing us to be consistently manipulated. Healing demands self-reflection, community support, and sometimes professional help. Martin Luther King Jr. said, “Those who love peace must learn to organize as effectively as those who love war.” We must mend wounds to trust, love, unite and prosper.
Prioritizing Health and Ethical Living
Holistic health is harmony of body, mind, and spirit. Choose nourishing food, embrace life-giving movement, rest and mental health. By nurturing well-being, we commit to ourselves and the ethical fabric of our world, affirming health as a right for all.
The Power of Unity in Diversity: Not being a monolith is a good thing
Strength lies in our diverse existence. As Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Rationalists; as Conservatives, Independents, Liberals; as Gullah, Creole, Geechee, Affrilachian—our diversity enriches us. Embrace your beliefs with love and respect for those with differing views. Our unity in diversity fortifies us, enabling collaborative progress and community power.
Teckethix: Ethics in Technology
In a world driven by rapid technological progress, we must be stewards of this new age, adopting innovations without forsaking values. Use technology for enlightenment and liberation. Evolve mind, body, and spirit while upholding ethics to ensure our progress protects humanity. Mastering technology and upholding our beliefs secures our future as empowered creators of a just world.
