HEALING POWER OF THE ARTS

Adenike's Arts and Amen Communivations are establishing Centers for Healing Arts, providing Natural, visual, performance, and communicative art to promote healing and encouragement to the spirit of all.

Our Healing Arts program incorporates visual, poetry, performance, and nature/environmental experiences, among other art forms, throughout the community as a means of learning, expression, memorializing, Health and healing for people, and those who may be suffering from trauma. The program strives to improve experiences and outcomes and to encourage a broader understanding of cultural diversity in health, trauma, and illness.

HEALING ARTS 

A variety of fine art forms makes up the Healing Arts. There are arts to stimulate all 5 senses and the Spirit. Art was first a tribute to our creator. Art was also created as a tribute to the ancestors. Art was a way of expressing a memory, a mark or tribute. So the stimulation of the 5 senses create a memory. The sights, sounds, aromas, tastes, and textures are enhanced stimulated and inspired. When Art is on display it is meant to provide an experiential, thoughtful or, pleasing atmosphere. The use of nature, Cultivating a shrine memorial garden, The act of creating, or the appreciation of art, relating to the senses- The experience, appearance, and smells of flowers, herbs, fruits, and plants are very healing for mind body and spirit. Food is medicine. Music, dance, poetry, sculpture, etc. can also be medicine. Even the presentation of certain plants attract specific and necessary insects, like Bees or Butterflies. Trees provide shelter and refuge for many insects and animals in a habitat. Trees also attract the songs of Birds. Ancient societies Practiced art for spiritual, memorial and healing

A BRIEF HISTORY OF ART IN HEALING

The use of art in western medical treatment was first implemented from eastern healing arts in Ancient African healing temples, which incorporated art for the mind body and spirit using empirical senses, of visual, hearing, smell, taste, texture, and environmental landscapes to create a holistic environment in which ailments were treated and the state of mind was uplifted.  The smells, taste and nutritive quality of herbs, roots, bark and fruit foods used as medicine were employed, along with touch, sounds, and dance. This knowledge began with melaninated people from the African diaspora, then was spread to the Asians, Greeks, then Romans which moved to be the Western world. In the 14th century, hospitals were operated by churches, which used paintings, frescoes, stained glass, music, sculpture, Architecture, and other mediums to communicate their teachings. Florence Nightingale’s Notes for Nursing, written in 1860, argues that patients require beauty and its effect is not only on the mind but also on the body. During the Depression, the Federal Art Project employed artists to paint murals in government hospitals. During the 1980s, hospitals began to use art as decorative elements with no particular attention to its therapeutic qualities. The early 1990s brought a newfound interest in the therapeutic qualities of art, resulting in a surge in evidence-based design, which studies the effect of the environment on healing.

According to The Center for Health Design, nearly 50 percent of all hospitals in the U.S. today have arts programs, and according to respondents of a 2003 survey, 96 percent of hospital arts programs are intended to “serve patients directly.” Fifty-five percent of the programs surveyed also present art to hospital staff as a way to reduce stress and improve patient care.

“Lifting the human spirit is one of the most important roles that art can play...”

- - Julián Zugazagoitia, Menefee D. and Mary Louise Blackwell Director & CEO, The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art

“on the vanguard of an important trend in holistic healing. I pray that the world will come to recognize that healing is not just limited to the time spent in a hospital, or on the operating table. Healing involves the entire environment and all of our senses.”

- - Christopher Radko, collector and donor  

EXPERIENCING THE ARTS DIRECTLY INFLUENCES HEALING

• A 1993 survey found that people viewing nature scenes after heart surgery reported less anxiety and stress and needed less pain medication than those in control groups.
• Research in 2001 revealed that trauma and orthopedics patients who were exposed to visual arts and live music had shorter stays and needed significantly less pain relief than patients in control groups.

Excerpted from Kathy Hathorn and Upali Nanda, “A Guide to Evidence-based Art,” © The Center for Health Design 2008

• Natural healing techniques, such as Sun glancing, Grounding, and caring for plants and Animals, have proven success in lowering blood pressure, relieving mental health challenges such as PTSD, Depression, and anxiety and other stress-related mental health illnesses, as well as.

LET'S BUY BACK BLACK AMERICA!

LET'S PUT OUR OWN BLACK DOLLARS INTO OUR OWN BLACK PEOPLE!

LET'S MAKE OUR OWN BLACK DOLLARS RECIRCULATE DOZENS OF TIMES BEFORE THEY EVER LEAVE OUR NEIGHBORHOODS!

WHY WOULD WE BUY OUR RBG FLAGS, AND BLACK POWER SYMBOLS, FOOD, CLOTHING, ETC., FROM BUSINESSES AND COMPANIES IN CHINA, JAPAN, KOREA, TAIWAN, INDIA, PAKISTAN, OR MEXICO ETC.!?

Do these people or countries spend or invest their money with American Indigo People, to build OUR Prosperity, Wealth and neighborhoods, to create a pan African/ Pan American cultural exchange? Or are they participating in our demise, by adding to the outside communities that build their businesses in our neighborhoods, then drain and siphon BLACK DOLLARS into building economic wealth for another community? We can't make wealth by working jobs for businesses outside of our economic community, only to consume and buy the products of outsiders and pay rent on their houses. Practicing fiscal fitness is in understanding the difference between appreciation and depreciation. 

WE MUST OWN OUR OWN BUSINESSES AND OWN OUR OWN LAND, APPRECIATING ASSETS, HOMES, AND RESOURCES! 

"ECONOMICS IS A FAMILY BASED SYSTEM!"

AMEN ANKH ENTERPRISES MAKES HANDMADE CUSTOM FLAGS, EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS, GROWS FOODS, MAKES PRODUCTS and ACCESSORIES!

Don't allow businesses outside of our own African American markets to capitalize on our culture and way of life. As consumers in the Kkorpratakrazy of U.S. (Uncle Sam/United States), we are taking our Black dollars to business, that put their money into banks, that invest in the prison industrial complex, and factory slave markets in Europe, China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, India, Iran or Mexico, etc. instead of small Black businesses that recirculate their dollars back into their own economic communities to create Gnome economic societies and Pan-African marketing networks! 
We must practice the Nguzo Saba (Seven Principles) EVERY DAY! 
1. Umoja (Unity) 
2. Kugichagulia (self-determination)  
3. Ujima (collective work) and 
4. Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics)
5. Nia (Purpose)
6. Kuumba (creativity) and,
7. Imani (faith)

Amen Ankh Enterprising develops industries to create our own STEAM Economy (Science, Technology, Engineering, Industrial Arts and Mathematics) using all of our multiple intelligences cultural ways.

WE MUST RETURN TO OUR OWN PRODUCTION, AND MANUFACTURING BUSINESSES, TO CREATE OUR OWN INDUSTRIES AGAIN.

We are outsourcing and wholesaling our economic revolution to everyone else but ourselves! We are wholesaling from the markets of outside wholesale food franchises, Network Marketing Providers, Asian owned Dollar Stores, and Arab owned convenient Stores, as well as articles and appliances manufactured by Italian, Mexicans, Koreans, Caucasians etc., then turn around and sell with a retail mark-up back to our Black people. This does not promote true dollar circulation. What are the Arabs, Chinese, Japanese etc. buying from (African Americans)? What do we manufacture, provide or produce from our Industries or institutions? Do they even listen to our music or put money in our church offering plates? Many Religious organizations have a dress code, yet even if we make our own clothes, Where do we get the fabric, Threads and Sewing machines from?

So We as people of color, are being used as consumer cash cows to pay taxes and usage bills to city water, gas and electric utility companies.

Mama Harriet on a Deucey

Mama Harriet on a Deucey

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew announced Wednesday, April 20th 2016, that Harriet Tubman will replace former President Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill.  Alexander Hamilton will remain on the front of the $10, but leaders of the women’s suffrage movement will be on the back of a $20 bill.

Lew’s decision comes after he announced last summer that he was considering replacing Hamilton on the $10 bill with a woman. The announcement drew swift rebukes from fans of Hamilton, who helped create the Treasury Department and the modern American financial system. Critics immediately suggested Hamilton take Jackson off the $20 bill given the former president’s role in moving native Americans off their land. Jackson may remain on the $20 bill in some capacity.

Lew told POLITICO last July that Treasury was exploring ways to respond to critics. “There are a number of options of how we can resolve this,” Lew said. “We’re not taking Alexander Hamilton off our currency.”

There will also be changes to the $5 bill to depict civil rights era leaders.

The new $10 bills are set to enter circulation in 2020, while we won’t see the $20 until 2030. Of Course, Caucasians are moving to stall this effort for as long as possible...

Harriet Tubman (born Araminta Ross; c. 1822^[1] – March 10, 1913) was an American abolitionist, humanitarian, and an armed scout and spy for the United States Army during the American Civil War. Tubman escaped Capture and Enslavement to subsequently make some thirteen missions to rescue approximately seventy enslaved families and friends,^[2] using the network of antislavery activists and safe houses known as the Underground Railroad. She later helped abolitionist John Brown recruit men for his raid on Harpers Ferry, and in the post-war era was an active participant in the struggle for women's suffrage.

Mama Harriet on a Deucey 

By: QueenMa Nuta Adenike AmenRa El (C) 2016 

Mama Harriet Tubman on a Deucey? 

I have some issues with this...  

Queen Mother Harriet Tubman was an abolitionist.  

To place Mama Tubman's face on this Cotton and Linen debt note, 

remembering that she had a cash bounty on her head  

alive or dead! 

Queen Mother was an Underground Railroad Engineer and Conductor  

She stole herself from treacherous human traffickers 

She risked her life for my Indigo Melanin Ancestors. 

She was a general against the Global War on Afrikans  

By the tri-lateral commission  

of the Vatican, the US, and Great Britain,  

She said that she "could have freed 1000 more  

if they had only known that they were slaves..." 

To think that we are at war with invading colonizers  

Who were once put to sleep for thousands of years by the spells of Bes,  

Bes taught them the flat earth that sent them into the trance of dark ages.  

Yet, the Moors under-minded Bes, and reversed the spell of Tawroette.  

For 1000 years they brought soap to cleanse these men from their Caucus caves style

Trapped in their nets of ultimate death, by plagues from their own unhealthy habits. 

For 1000 years the Moors brought civilization 

They built trade ships and navigated the Aryans to new trade route destinations  

Yet After the Caucus mountain men 

saw heaven on the other side of the world They brought their defecations  

They made Idolatry their GOD- of Gold, Oil and Diamonds/Drugs in modification 

They corrupted our Ma-Sun Sciences- to perverted Masonic rites then human sacrifice  

to enslaved the Moors and all Indigo Children  

Mama Harriet fought the military-industrial complex 

she worked to undermine and destroy  

The US Illuminati Race supremacy system. 

She worked in punishing Aryan men for the sins 

of enslaving people of Melanin 

and pirating GOD's land and resources to extinction in the end.   

Even she knew that peaceful resistance was ineffective.   

In those days, the value of the Dollar was passing away 

Now one US Dollar only buys a dime's worth. 

Twenty Dollars can barely benefit an hour of minimum wage 

still, our reparations have never been paid  

For our Melanin people, who were hung like strange fruit on their own farmland

Even now our youth are strung-up on the Coca Leaf trees, and Poppy fields like scarecrows.   

Drugs and guns are clandestinely placed into the hands of our boyz-in-da-hoods,  

They are Child Soldiers marching, 

they wear their uniforms- Hoodies, White tee-shirts, Saggin Dickies, and Jordans

All outsource slave manufacturing

While political reps of the Kkorpratakrazy call them Thugs and Super Predators  

How do drugs come from Afghanistan and end up in a US city drug dealers' hands? 

Even though we know that the biggest dope dealers on the corner are Walgreens and CVS 

Melanin men are set up for def in da hood by Neo-Natzi-Kopper Klansmen,  

who fear for their lives and inevitable extinction, 

Dred Scott's decision still stalks us- "whether owned or free,  

we cannot be US citizens and therefore have no standing  

to sue in federal court of Maritime law."

  

Integration only opened the gateway for Global mass incarceration,  

With Outsourcing and Wage Slavery, our Melanin peoples 

Are still designated as 3/5ths human in the constitution,  

US Political leaders STILL ratify the rights for Melanin people to vote.  

Our tax dollars are not used to benefit our own neighborhoods,  

Our water is poisoned, Our air is filled with Chemtrails,  

Our foods are made from Henrietta Lacks' Cervical Cancer Stem Cells  

and Frankenstein GMO virus Clones 

Mama Harriet rolls in her grave remains

Plessy vs Ferguson- Supported Separate and not equal  

The Black neighborhoods are food and economic deserts 

and Indigo people still target market prey for exploitation

while our dollars run right through their fingers. 

while in Ferguson Missouri, Mike Brown was shot down  

and left to die on the ground.  

His own mother had no rights to touch, resuscitate or hold 

her innocent son's body one last time.  

Corporate prisons dollars pay Corrupt KKKiller Kopps 

(Originally slave catching bounty hunters)-

Kkorporations found a way to reverse affirmative actions  

and hide their kopps behind their badges of good o'l boys in blue - 

Masonic systems and fraternal orders, for the benefits of No indictment-  

and paid leave for the rest of their lives-  

or to move from state to state- station to station  

on a psychopathic rampage of paid domestic terrorism,  

brutality, murder, and molestations. 

Our families have been broken by the un-just-US medi-sin system. 

Our Children are miss-educated and sedated from the womb to the tomb-  

by the Daycare- to School to Prison Pipeline of kkorporatokrazy  

Indigo Men have been imprisoned, effeminated,  

used to artificially inseminate, decaffeinated, and decapitated.  

Their only outlets are to chase balls, sing, rap, or front in Jiggaboo movies. 

Our youth are corralled to minimum  

wage dollars, enslaved by college loans, 

like payday debt- garnished from paycheck to paycheck  

only to be hired to be the concierge, maids, and child pets 

black Athletes flash as commercial Corporate T.V. ad celebrities 

living in their big house and flying in their private Jets... 

Their dollars go right back into the Illuminati system,

Reparations dollars for Trans-Atlantic Maafa, have been ignored 

With a history of Enslavement, Reconstruction

Jim Crow and desegregation

To teach our children corporate Holiday lies, 

they are hard-pressed to even apologize  

for the Willie Lynch to Jim Crow aftermath of Civil war  

Our Black Wall-streets dollars were cremated 

Our Black Panther Party was decimated 

Yet the duplicity and complicity for the Tea Party  

and the Confederate flag revivals were perpetrated 

So... Put Harriet Tubman's head on a $20 bill?.... 

I'm no longer chasing the plantation- race supremacy  

Like Mama Harriet, I'm moving to higher ground
