Black Jesus Nativity Scene Angers 'White Christmas' Party

This gets the Christmas/Kwanzaa discussion of to a rousing start. Oh, we are going to have much Cultural Health fun this holiday season.

Black Jesus Nativity Scene
Not the scene from the actual story, Click Here for full story

This is a comment I read regarding this story:

That is what happens when Caucasian,Anglo and Europeans paint their version of Christ in "their" image!..not the image of a Jesus born in a dark skinned region.

This is my Cultural Commentary on the story.

Interesting point, the doublespeak concept of a "Middle East" had not been invented yet and all of Ethiopia, including far North Africa, as the Greeks called it, had a majority population of traditional Africans, not the multi-ethnic Arab invaders of today.

I is remarkable that here in "A Merry Ca" many of my fellow Americans run around fat, dumb and happy oblivious to historicity.

We see pictures from Iraq in that region and the broadcasters tell us that it is 110 degrees in the shade, yet we still put nativity scenes in our houses of worship with snow falling on Jesus. Come on folks, we don't need history here a little geography would serve the thinking persons reality check very well.

I won't even bring up Jesus's description in the Bible, or the coin in the British museum with a picture of Justinian on one side and Jesus on the other. Jesus's ethnicity historically is less of a mystery then many would have us believe.

However, this is the holiday season and we must get ready once again for the onslaught of Culturally Poisened holiday movies, like Moses and the 10 commandments that will misrepresent the majority population and spiritual traditions of Classical African Civilization, Kemet (Ancient Egypt).

How should you think about this? You should start by asking yourself, what do I really know about this time in recorded history? Then ask some questions.

Golfweek had a noose on its cover

In 2008 Golfweek had a noose on its cover which, represented a reality of Tiger Wood's sport. Now in 2009 Tiger has created another layer of problem on top of the original one.

Cultural Poisoning still plays a roll in most things American, including sports, relationships and marriage.

President Obama Nobel Peace Prize Speech - Video

The people of the world did not give the Peace prize to our President, they gave it to us the American people, for choosing war over peace in our election. If you want to understand the American Cultural Humanist's point of view on war and peace this is a must see video.


Part 1 of 4 - Watch the whole speech if you have time, if not, watch part 1 and part 4 to get a good understanding of what was said. See Parts 2 to 4 at the end of this video -bottom of screen.



Obama did America proud in shedding light on what most thinking Americans think and feel about war and peace. We have no wish to go around the world killing people and stealing their resources. What an ending, our President gave the world hope as he tried to reactivate its moral compass. Listen to the applause at the speech's conclusion, there is much to be heard in the world's applause.

Tiger Woods Cultural Progress or Cultural Poisoning

"Take your name off your phone" the video remix, has gone viral. Tiger is now as well known as O.J. Simpson was, are there any parallels? (Video)




Now that you have had a good laugh, you know Golf is not exactly a Hip Hop Subject. This is an example of the fact that even people who know nothing about Golf will be telling Tiger Woods jokes for years. All sports Hero's are not necessary good cultural charterer models. In this unfortunate circumstance there is a Cultural Health opportunity. What is the state of relationships in America in general and in the African American community in particular.

Before you answer, as a matter of modern Cultural Literacy, you should understand that while Tiger and O.J. Simpson have something in common, they are not the only ones. Hit this link and tell me what you think.

Good Picasa Web Album Demo

I don't like the 250 mb limit and the idea that they will charge for 6 gig. I must now take a closer look at Photobucket which, does this for free with links and embedding, if I am not mistaken. Now, if google were to add Picasa web to YouTube with the same UT link/embed and monetize capability, Now we're talking mucho new customers on the grid.

What is Organic Food? - What is Whole Food Market

Image via Wikipedia

My physical health is important to me. So what I put in my mouth is important to me. To my shock, a member of my family demonstrated that the term organic and what it means to ones health is still new to many people. So I put this quick physical health reference.

Cultural Literacy and Physical Literacy (Food Literacy in this case) go hand in hand.

Organic is still confusing to most people. The way you "know" that a food you buy is organic is by the Green and White symbol that leads this article. Right now, the USDA symbol means, IMHO, that the producer is at least trying to appear healthier then their competition. If I have a choice between an Organic apple and a Frankenstein (GMO) Nerve gas (pesticide) apple, I choose organic. Organic apples can be 400% heather then a chemical apple.

I now shop at a store called Whole Food Market they are a National chain supermarket like Shop Wrong (Rite). They differ from the shop wrongs of the world in one important way, most of their food is organic. Most of the food in a shop wrong supermarket is chemical food. I did not even know this Grocery Store War was going on. See Video below



Join the war, vote organic when you are in a store
