Accurate knowledge is therefore...

Accurate knowledge is therefore the stuff that rebirth and renewal are made of. In order to
gather, process, and, digest accurate knowledge on a mass level, Africans must systematically develop study-action cooperatives
in all of our neighborhoods, homes, community centers, and wherever we are. It is an ancient African Kmt resurrection
of the foundations of life through mastery of the fundamentals of one's life based on self knowledge. Self-knowledge
is the first step in the ending of deception and the beginning of truth. Truth, toughness, technique, and technology
will be the foundation of our freedom.
Education is freedom.
The disciplined, honorable, morally pure, and scientific actions of our ancestors must be mastered so as to reestablish a
"just foundation in life" to guide our thoughts and actions. Start small; split in half when you become large;
stay small and managerable. Work more, talk less. Stay away from large forums; teaching is best done in small classrooms.
Seeds grow best under the soil, in the dark, in the quiet of life. In no time, the day that makes 30 years will end
the 30 years of fast-talking that hadn't even made a day. You will successfully build research teams that have
not been built because others wasted time showing off, entertaining, and ego-tripping.
First, our collective memory must be restored so that we will understand what has happen to us and what must
be done not only to improve but to independently raise ourselves out of this systematic muck and mire. African inner
values, ethics, morals, and virtue must be restored by studying, improving, and implementing traditional African codes of
behavior. The context for study cooperatives is essentially the same, and can be summarized as follows: - Serious
social, economic, political, cultural crisis occurs.
- People begin to discuss it, seek answers, grasp what must be
done.
- Grouping of serious people began to form. Meetings of women and men are scheduled to discuss problem and
what they should do.
- Dedicated people meet systematically once per week, two-three times per month, etc---whatever
is necessary to organize systematic methods of understanding what they should do and doing it.
- Study handbooks, templates,
books, handouts, etc., are introduced; uncommitted will drop out, original core will become smaller code of moral, mental,
and material behavior is established; the undisciplined and morally unsure will drop out; the core will become even smaller.
- Everybody wants to talk, many in a radical or cultured way, but words alone will not solve our problems: Move from
discussion to objective study of the problem statement.
- Rigorous code of study and work is introduced.
The core becomes even smaller, but more refined, more committed, more clear.
- Establish gender equality with
the woman (with seniority) having the final vote in ties. If her direction does not work, try the opposite position then
the middle. Maintain a system of equality, voted decisions, hard work carrying them out, check up, adjustments
when necessary, flexibility, balance and motion forward in every thing done. This is Maat.
Decide
how to start study cooperatives in your area. Review Kmt Guiding Principles, 9, 13, 21, 36, 42 if you need ancient structure.
Form founding committees (perankh) "houses of life" committees. The three member pyramids (triangular committee)
consisting of the (1) Librarian, (2) Recorder, and (3) Male-Female Chairpersons, where possible, should have been elected
on a rotating basis to steer each meeting. The election of the pyramid committee occurs at the meetings of the
core membership---the founding members of the study action team. After the study action team has been developed
in your community, all pyramid committees are voted on after every six months. All important decisions are discussed
first, then voted upon. Make sure that the study cooperatives are small (3-5 persons are families), doers, equal
and balanced. Make sure that they are built, step by step, over a protracted period. Africans have been
in this miserable condition for over 2700 years. Therefore, any person that says that they are committed and are not
willing to study and sacrifice over an extended period of time is not worthy of working with. Make this task of
building study cooperatives in the African community into a moral quest, a genuine and honorable mission, and a grand
purpose. In the process we will be able to change moral, and mental thoughts into actualized results. Complete
your study, planning and training stages within 33 days, if possible. Meet systematically, at least 2 times per month.
Establish Agenda. Divide it into Heart (moral correction, Head (mental correction), and Hands (correct practical
action). Your future publishing collective will reflect this study cooperative division of labor. Discuss and
plan for establishing your own moral code based on Kmt Maat.
Discuss the comprehensive outline of African
historical study (21,000,000,000 years ago to present). Plan practical actions in the African community toward bringing
in new members, living African culture, spreading African history, and independently providing (food, clothing, shelter,
education, transportation, moral guidance, martial arts/self defense, construction, manufacturing, and health care).
When the total reaches 6 members or families, split in half and start the second study cooperative with one member with long
seniority. Accept women and men only of exceptional character, selfless, honest, hard working, finishers.
Quality is better than quantity. Build a core of equal African female and male leadership by making self worthy for
leadership through works and self correction. Quietly organize teaching materials in home libraries, and home cultural
centers in your neighborhoods. Establish standard meeting schedule and activities. Identify, convince,
and prepare membership for Pan African study action teams following the standard guidelines for recruitment of new members.
Plant seeds of the African renewal in fertile soil. Protect those seeds. Nurture those seeds. Harvest
those seeds; clear away weeds by working only with people who want to work. Stay away from talkers. Work with
workers. Stay away from people with low morals. The most dedicated, far-sighted, honest, and determined will stick around.
