About Me
IT WAS 1998, 15 ,FEBUARY.WHEN FOUR WRITERS GOT TOGETHER IN BIRMINGHAM ENGLAND,WE WERE ALL POETS OF AN OLD SCHOOL-FREEDOM FIGHTERS,WE WERE ALL SUPPORTERS OF THE BLACK PANTHA, ALSO VERY ACTIVE AMOUNGST OUR COMMOUNITY LEADERS. WITH THE INCREASE OF VIOLENT CRIMESTHE FOUR WRITERS PRAYED FOR AN ANSWER AND A WAY OUT FOR THEIR COMMUNITY, THAT WAS WHEN THE NAME UJIMA,GAVE LIGHT TO THE SUCCESS OF THE MISSION.I RAS JOSEPH BEEN A MUSICIAN TOOK THE CONCEPT TO ANOTHER LEVEL,DUB POETRY, AT THE SAME TIME, WRITING SHORT STORIES AND POETRY WHICH OF SOME ARE PUBLISHED IN BOOKS IN ALL GOOD BOOK SHOPS.HA HA. THE WRITERS CORNER I JOINED AND IS RESPONSILE FOR PULISHING UJIMA S WORK IS CALLED WRITERS WITHOUT BOARDERS.AGAIN UJIMA WENT UP ANOTHER LEVEL,STILL FUCUSED ON THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE STAGE THE WE HOLD AS ARTIST.MENY FELLOW ARTIST CAME AND WORK WITH UJIMA AND IT WAS GREAT TIMES TOO, THIS WAS JUST A PA. PRESNTATION, BUT WE MOVED HEADS IN BIRMINGHAM OR WHERE EVER WE PROFORMED.UJIMA MOVED UP AGAIN AND WE FORMED OUR OWN LIVE BAND.
UJIMA MEANS COLLECTIVE WORKS AND RESPONSIBILITY,AND AS CHILDREN OF THE EMPEROR WE TAKE OUR MUSIC SERIOUS.SO AS WE WORK TOWORDS WORLD PEACE WE WILL SING WITH OUR FELLOW ARTIST ONE LOVE.POEM.FORGIVENESS.WE HAVE TO PREPARE OURSEVES TO FORGIVE,IT WILL BE OUR ONLY PASSAGE THROUGH DIFFICULT DAYS AHEAD.WE HAVE TO PREPARE OURSELVES TO FORGIVE,BECAUSE BY MEANS OF SELF-DISIPLINE OUR CHILDREN MUST BE LEAD,AND TAUGHT THAT GOD WILL TAKE VENGEANCE OVER INJUSTICE HIMSELF.WE HAVE TO PREPARE OURSELVES TO FORGIVE,SO WE CAN BE FORGIVEN AND BE THERE FOR OUR CHILDREN TO TEACH THEM THE TRUE PASSAGE TO THE LIFE THAT HAS BEEN HIDEN,
BY RELIGIONS,POLITICS AND SOCIATES CHOICE TO KEEP THE DEVISSION.WE HAVE TO PREPARE OURSELVES TO FORGIVE, WHEN THE WAR IS ENDEDE-SO IN PEACE TIME IT SHOULD BE A PRIVRLEGE-THE HUMAN RACE
WE ARE DEFFENDING,SHOULDER TO SHOULDER AND SIDE BY SIDE EVEN WHEN IT BECOMES A ROUGH RIDE.WE HAVE TO PREPARE OURSELVES TO FORGIVE,ALOT OF OUR CHILDREN ARE BECOMING FUGITIVES,
IT IS THEIR BLOOD THAT IS IN THE STREETS, TO FORGIVE HUMBLE PIE WE MUST ALL BE PREPARED TO EAT, IT COULD BE YOUR CHILD NEXT WEEK.WE HAVE TO PREPARE OUR SELVES TO FORGIVE IT WILL BE OUR ONLY FUTURE PASSAGE THROUGH DIFFICULT DAYS AHEAD.BY RAS JOSEPH EMANUELL,R,A.
