“Dear Black Families… Just imagine how POWERFUL your family would be if you put forth the effort to break generational curses that have done nothing but bring about hurt, pain, suffering, struggles, and resentments in your family. You can’t afford to keep passing on foul behaviors to your children, grandchildren, nephews, nieces, little cousins, Godchildren, etc. It’s time to change the narrative! Trade in the dysfunction for love, unity, encouragement, and support. If you’re knowledgeable of something that could help get them ahead and do better for themselves, share it with your family members, too. You shouldn’t be the ONLY one winning… Educate, empower, and inspire them as well! Black Power and Black Unity breeds Black Excellence for generations to come. It’s time to build black generational wealth… It’s OUR time.”

“Black women have always been at the bottom of the human race. In that bottom of a pit, they were abused, misjudged, neglected, and unseen. In the end, there were two options left for them; to diminish and die, or to be strong and rise like a phoenix from the ashes. Today, black women are using their strength to make an imprint of their existence. They are here to conquer the brutal neglect, injustice, hatred, mistreatment, and inequality. Black women are saying: here we are in all our beauty, glory, strength, and assertiveness. See us. Know us. Recognise us. Give us what we're worth. Above all else, respect us.”

“Dear Young Black Males… I encourage you to NOT spend your money frivolously. It’s imperative that you save and invest, too! Don’t be so easily flattered by materiel things that hold no value. It’s time to think and plan long-term! Be inspired about building wealth by reading, taking classes, attending seminars, watching YouTube videos, following reputable people online that specialize in investing and finances, getting a mentor, etc. I cannot stress it enough… Utilize your mind, and educate yourself about money! Upgrade your thinking, young Kings! Shoes, clothes, jewelry, cars, and the latest gadgets are of no real value to you. Focus on building assets!”

“Africans, you have the permission to celebrate your roots and your heritage again. Go on and heal your bodies with your traditional herbs. And teach your children the secrets of your ancestors. Your ancestors lived well — with little to nothing. They were self-sufficient. Yet, they were the happiest. Embrace the secrets of your traditions again. You're safe and free.”

“My fellow African, when you look at another African, what do you see? Do you not see the reflection of yourself? Do you not see someone who was once a victim of the past but who has emerged as a survivor — as your forefathers did? Do you not see the same colour of your skin? Do you not see the same texture of your hair? Alright. Since you are looking at your reflection, how would you like to treat yourself?”

“How can you not appreciate the beauty in your black skin? Why do you misjudge its value? Your skin neither cracks nor burns underneath the sun. Your skin compliments its rays; and in its heat, you stun. It is in your skin that the sun gets to reflect the strength of its rays. Have you noticed how your black skin glows in the sunny days? You ought to glorify the uniqueness of your black skin; because black skin neither cracks nor wrinkles at the touch of the soil. With a kiss of dust, your skin amplifies. In fact, your skin is the original seed in the gods' eyes. Even the day adorns your black skin as its beautiful lace; while the night wears it as its face. Maybe the air is mesmirised by your scent; because your black skin represents nature in its essence.”
