designed to represent universal principles and themes reflected in the symbols
and culture of Afrikan people from ancient times to the present, that serve to
counteract the ongoing negative attack on the Afrikan mind, body and soul.
We Are The Ones Weve Been Waiting Forconsciousness raising
images and messages are designed to educate, uplift, inspire and remind us the
importance of celebrating our great history and heritage.
We Are The Ones Weve Been Waiting Forgraphic tee shirt
designs tells a story of a people of great intellect, knowledge, wisdom, strength,
beauty, majesty, soul and spirit. Moreover the consciousness raising images and
messages on each shirt are designed to help de-activate the Willie Lynch Chip.
The Willie Lynch Chip is part of the anti-African, programmed self-hatred that
has served to divide and conquer people of African descent that has made it
difficult to unify to advance our cultural, economic and political interest.
We Are The Ones Weve Been Waiting For is the central theme
connecting each design. It means that that in the heart and soul of people of
African descent lives the seed of African genius and greatness that can be found
in the cellular memory of our very being. It suggests that we have all that we
need to confront and transform the programmed self-hatred and cultural
alienation instilled by the former colonizers and en-slavers. We need not wait
for someone or something to save us from the grips of the system known as
global white supremacy. Weve got the power, divinely downloaded. We need
to re-member it, access it, and apply the knowledge and skills to restore our
rightful place on the world stage.
The consciousness raising messages and positive images are designed to ignite
the flame of self-love, self-worth and self-acceptance as we explode the Willie
Lynch Chip (the divide and conquer chip), which has kept people of African
descent from uniting to advance the collective interest of the group.

Because our ancestors understood the value of art, We Are The Ones
Weve Been Waiting Fortee shirts are great examples of wearable art
designed to reflect our culture in a positive way. Art plays a very fundamental
role both spiritually and politically. Art was created to sustain the culture. Art
represents a symbol of our spirituality, and if humanity ever loses its ability to
create then it will lose its soul. Art represents the essence of our cultural and
spiritual unity which is reflected in art and written messages on each shirt.
As an Artist you must be a visionary, archeologist, and historian. You must
invoke Sankofa, which means you must look back to move forward. We move
forward with the power of the cultural glue that enabled our ancient ancestors
to build the worlds first great civilization that thrived for thousands of years as
a beacon of light for all to see. We Are The Ones Weve Been
Waiting For tee shirt designs is a reminder of who we were, who we are
and what we can be.
The beauty of African Art is found in the symbols. A reflection of what isThe
mathematics and complexities, signs, symbols, and images are the keys to
African art. Seeing the unseen in the seen, using, and the medium of tee shirts
to portray Afrikan art.
We Are The Ones Weve Been Waiting Fordesigns challenges us
to see the unseen within us as we are being called to re-member who we truly
are as descendants of African Greatness still capable of extraordinary
achievements for ourselves and the world the world at large.
Erriel Kofi Addae, in the book To Heal A People tells us that African scholars,
activists and concerned community soldiers must begin to acquire the critical
understanding of how to win the minds and transform the consciousness of
millions within the African Global Community. We have to begin strategizing to
win the war for our spirits and minds, first and foremost through impacting
consciousness. There are more powerful ways to impact and transform African
consciousness, on a mass or national level, than through books and lectures.
Symbols, images and icons move people on deeper levels, levels which the
written and spoken words are often unable to touch. This war for consciousness
is a one way assault currently in which we are being attacked and are not
retaliating on a large scale. Our retaliation will be the expert use of symbols,
images, icons and cultural memory to win the minds, hearts and spirits of our
people.
We Are The Ones Weve Been Waiting For consciousness raising
graphic tee shirts represents one more way to retaliate against the war against
Afrikan people by helping to counter balance the negative and destructive
images and messages that plague our community.
At present, the European world reality floods the consciousness of the African
with images, icons, European cultural memory and distorted African cultural
memory through mass media, movies, billboard, comics, music, flags,
monuments, statues, memorials, tee shirts and a plethora of other means.
It is my hope that the symbols, images, words, concepts and ideas will serve to
raise our consciousness to vibrate on a higher frequency as we revisit the
greatness, strength and beauty that we are and have always been since the
beginning of time. We need to be ever mindful that we are the BLESSING and
the continuation of a long line power, beauty, excellence and greatness.
Finally, it is my hope that concepts and ideas contained in these graphic tee
shirt designs will serve to heal, inspire and motivate us to see a higher vision of
ourselves and apply that vision to creating a better world for ourselves, our
family, our neighborhood, our community, our city, state and nation.
