The highest level of intelligence is creativity and ingenuity...Both traits are also characteristics of those whom society considers strange, weird, or eccentric.
Yet those who develop the habit of generating new ideas to solve current problems, these are the masters the world remembers. I consider myself an intelligent person, not because I know a lot of knowledge, but because I understand how to apply that knowledge to manifest creative ideas that others are too afraid to mention. For me, every good and perfect idea comes from the Holy Spirit. While many people refer to such inspiration as the "Universe," I call Him by name and I teach my online members to do the same. Developing unique ideas and solutions to the problems we encounter is essential to our growth and civilization. Yet too few people actually tap into their creative genius to discover how they can impact the world in which they live. This lesson applies especially to the modern Black Conservative Movement and the individuals who comprise it. In this empowering post, I want to teach about the power of presenting unique resolutions to the problems some Americans encounter in this country. More specifically, I want to discuss reparations and how Conservatives can develop more effective solutions based on the values we embrace. If we learn to do things differently while presenting answers based on conservative values, we will revolutionize the Republican Party and see a dramatic increase in Black Americans voting Red.

The Moral High Ground in ConservatismSince 2016, I have been on the front lines of the Black Conservative social media movement. Before that, I had always been a Republican voter. Conservatism is all I know; and over the years, I have watched as my value system empowered me to conquer the insurmountable.
Conservatism is built upon the idea of the individual. We seek to preserve the individual rights above the collective; and at times, this individualism translates into individual thinking. Among the most prominent talking points within the Black Conservative Movement is the idea that Black Conservatives are the true "free thinkers." The other 90% are locked in mental bondage simply because they vote Democrat. In this space, this is the moral high ground. And any Black Conservative who ascribes to conservative politics is seemingly superior in intellect than other Black Americans. Now, perhaps it's because I've spent so many years in the public space, but I have never ascribed to such beliefs. In fact, such thinking would have prevented me from helping hundreds of scholars graduate from high school. If I believed Black people were intellectually inferior to me because of our political differences, my scholars would not have loved me as they did. So, at times, when I see the Blexit babies use their platforms to suggest certain Black people are "less than," I worry that their words will come back to haunt them. This leads me into the recent discourse that took place on Twitter. |
