THE SAGA OF THE JUST
IN TIME PEOPLE
Black Literary Weekend
Getting An Influx
By The Newport Newservice
May 16, 2007
SOUTHAMPTON COUNTY, VA
-That black people have not completely detached from
our roots can be proved in many varying ways. The
least of the ways is not our concept of time: “Zamani”
and “Sasa” is alive and well in North America.
According to Dr. Mbiti, the author of “African
Religions and Philosophy” when Africans on the
continent make an appointment for a specific time,
they do not mean, i.e. 8 A.M. perse. It is more like
about 8 am. Dr. Mbiti goes on to give a great,
general consensus of how continental Africans live.
Every word verifies that The Honorable Elijah
Muhammud was right to teach that time is the master
illusion.
The above was written in order to make a point
regarding the 2007 Black Literary Weekend, June 1, 2
& 3 in Southampton County, Virginia. A part of North
America that Nat Turner and the Black Liberation
Army of 1831 liberated. Liberating the land also
meant the Captive Africans at the time was also
liberated. A Revisit to the route they marched to
achieve such a stupendous feat, is retraced on the
third day of the gathering of Independent Black
Writers.
Brother Keidi Awardi,
Sister Dr
. A.
Kambon, Dr. Laila O. Afrika, Sister Shahrazad Ali,
Dr. Henry N. Anderson, Dr. Kamau Kambon, Sister
Amuntyt Khalifah (Judy Carter), Dr. Frederick
Newsome, Allah Jihad, Larry Thomas and many, many
others will gather at the Khalifah Holistic Retreat
to celebrate the most important black writers in the
World: Independent Black Writers.
BLACK BOOK LOVERS COMING
TO VIRGINIA
Confirmed attendees have swelled over the last three
weeks leading to the BLW. And as per Afrikan concept
of “just in time.” And we know that the last two
weeks will bring an abundance of confirmations. At
the least, “we are planning, food and other wise,
for a last minute influx of 25% in attendance.” So
stated Emanuel L. Knight, the overall coordinator of
the event. The Holist Health Retreat is on pristine
land that Nat Turner actually was born on, slaved
on, and planned the revolt on.
It is not too late for writers, families, friends of
Black books and vendors to come to the only
gathering of its kind South of Washington, D.C. to
Atlanta, Ga. Writers will speak about, sign and sell their books. There will be a
Holistic Health Workshop; a Workshop on Using
Technology to Promote Our Business, including the
business of Liberating Black people.
And the person largely credited with the success of
independently (from mainstream publishers) published
books, Sister Shahrazad Ali, whose “Blackman’s Guide
to Undrstanding the Black Woman”, created a ground
swell of dialogue about Black Male Black Female
relationships; and earned millions dollars for many
small black business.
For the 16th
year, UBUS Communications Systems & Your Black Books
Guide will present Black Book Awards to Black
Writers, Black Booksellers at an awards Banquet,
June 2, 2007 at 7 P. m.
Hopefully, all intending to be there will be there
long before this years winner of the Carter G.
Woodson Awards is called to received the 2007 Black
Book Award for the person who impacted the most on
the Re-education of the Negro.
