imo, ... in a nutshell for the ones in America at least.black is a mindset? do you mean behavior, traits, characteristics? what exactly is the mind set on in blackness?
For most yes.so that means it's a mind set for a trap.

it wasnt always a trap, but i do feel as tho it transformed into, or was made a trap in recent years.

I agree for the most part.... and I don't believe in the spaceship tales of Fard as God n all that... But, the black man is God... at the same time the Black man in America is lost and is dealing with social pressures and forces that most human beings aren't naturally built to deal with. This is why I f with some of the NOI people over my g n earths brothas because, for the most part they don't waiver or fall off. They are righteous and stick to that. They are (believe in the religious parts or not) good examples for black youth and don't have to use the "do as I say not as I do" methodology.
They have an economic plan and they don't embrace drug culture. I say the full understanding might not be there completely because 5% nation is unstructured and all over the place, plus there are cac as the main people putting the books out (like that Michael guy- so now we can change their nature??) . Gods are the best at speaking knowledge but you need to add wisdom.. 1+2 =. understanding. Most gods don't have anyone to complete that wisdom for them in their life and you can't get that shyt on your own unless ur on some Siddhārtha Gautama type shyt- which most nikkas are not.

my issue with the gods i come across is that they take the lessons on face value, they are very sexist(which leads to being way more dudes than there are females), and put more emphasis on memorizing the lessons than actually having an understanding of them.
They weren't taught right then...if at all. Anybody can look up supreme wisdom online and claim they're a part of the nation. I've never heard of a god or earth that's been taught right by an enlightner taking lessons on face value. Next time ask em who were they taught by and give some proof. As far as the sexism thing, I know you said based on the ones you've come across but we as a whole nation, we value the black woman. She's the feminine half of god. Reflecting the light of the sun(black man) as the moon and together bring the understanding(child). Since I've posted some videos, I might as well keep going to give you more insight on the queens in the nation.

i dont need insight, i'm very familiar with the nation. i 'knowledge' my lessons a long ass time ago. the men in the nation tend to be sexist, and they always out number the women. i dont blame it on the nation, but i blame the nation for not doing enough about it. i'm not gonna derail tho, i'm leave this thread and let it do what it do.
I'll check out the videos...We don't advocate drugs at all. Some may have fell victim to it but no group on this planet is holy including the NOI. I would look into Allah Jihad's book, the Immortal Birth. He was a member of the NOI at one point and sheds some light on the bs the NOI be on. I was surprised to say the least, but like all other religions I don't judge them based on ones who fell victim. Also most of the books on the nation are by our own people. Also the nation has been strong since 64. When Elijah passed, the NOI went into the dark ages. The gods and the earths know their lessons and haven been on point since the father came to our aid in 64. Remember bruh, this is about knowledge of self. There's no right or wrong way as long as you can prove what you're doing is good. I haven't gotten a chance to read that book by Mr. Knight but I hear it's cool. The truth is the truth regardless where it comes from. The 5% is not black exclusive and is open to anyone who wants to teach the truth regardless of color and religion/culture.

5% don't advocate drug use and crime... but it doesn't advocate against it... or really against anything.. I understand it's knowledge of self, but with all that we are up against we can't just randomly let nikkas go out like ODB.
And I understand the truth is for everyone... knowledge is universal. However, there's a reason y Malcolmx decided not to allow white people into his groups. It's nothing against them.. it's not a hostile action, it's just that you can't let put with certain inherit natures penetrate your cypher until you have no lost ones left and everyone is complete. Considering that we are black Americans - that basically means we can only deal w white people on the workplace and social levels. However, I'll admit, Knight Muhammad's book is damn near the best I've read and he's a white boy.
behaviors, characteristics etc is all based on how your mind is interpreting experiences. An original mind is a person who identifies themselves with the origin. I can use the mind to do anything I please as long as it's possible. What it comes down to when talking about an original mind is creativity, acting on truth, and doing what's best for the whole(righteousness). Doing otherwise means you are using a colored man's mind(colored man meaning white people). If you're not using creativity, always stealing other peoples ideas and claiming as your own, telling lies, don't want to connect with black people etc. Then you have a colored or painted picture of reality.
