Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy. Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality. Wake Up and Live! -Bob Marley

The magnitude of information I learned from Dr. Llaila Afrika's course was so intense and broad til to this day I'm beginning to understand more and more of what he taught and how he taught it. Dr. Afrika was angry at how as a collective we are so naive, gullible, and unwilling to learn outside of societal norms.
