IzzyFerd: Moor Know Thy Self

These are the matters which intrigue the Nate at this current moment… Vocabulary words constitute the bulk of the content; I encountered these words reading the introduction to Hayy Ibn Yaqzan.

1) Abbasid rule(750-850) was the golden age of Islam. During this time, many Greek works were translated into Arabic.

They are conclusions to be formed, and formed by each individual in the sacred and free citadel of the mind, and there enshrined beyond the arm of law to reach, or force to shake; ay! and beyond the right of impertinent curiosity to violate, or presumptuous arrogance to threaten.”

-Frances Wright

Right as of this moment I am reading the introduction to the book, Hayy ibn Yaqdhan, by Ibn Tufail. Tufail was a philosopher during the Moorish occupation the Iberian Peninsula in the 12th century AD. From the 7th-14th century, the Moors ruled Al Andulus and Magrheb. The full Islamic state was sectionalized by the time of his birth between the west and the east and the West; the west, which was ruled by the Emir Abu Yaqub Yusuf, was considered High class and knew nothing of the dark ages which modern historians allude to. The pale people who bestow their hegemony upon the world deceive us by reporting that all of the world fail victim to the Dark Ages. This is not true. To know more A

What WIKI says:

Being that yesterday was Nate’s last day burning Cannabus, he felt it necessary to inform the peoples of Tumblr; Nate is no longer a Chiefing Indian, albiet Cannabus is still the nigga’s passion. Following in the steps of Kid Cudi, a mulatto who recently ceased the inhalation of this miracle plant into his body indefinitely, Nate set out to catalyze the emergence of his inner chief.. Nate feels as though THC does no harm and references the Cannabiniod receptors all humans have in their brains.

As opposed to other chemicals, or what some erroneously consider to be relative to THC, THC does not inhibit the functionalities of the body, rather, it has a function and there is a set process in which the body performs in which to best use the chemical.

This is from WIKI…

-On October 7, 2003, a U.S. patent number 6630507 entitled “Cannabinoids as Antioxidants and Neuroprotectants” was awarded to the United States Department of Health and Human Services, based on research done at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), and the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS). This patent claims that cannabinoids are “useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases such as ischemia, age-related, inflammatory, and autoimmune diseases. The cannabinoids are found to have particular application as neuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and HIV dementia.”

Hail Mary

I am here again voicing my self, or better yet, the happenstances which I witnessed today and the unresolved problems and issues which are currently present is Nate’s physical mind. Nate is a deeply melanated individual but he never supported Obama. Deeply Melanated people of Obama’s socio-economic status take up marginalized issues as opposed to spearheading the issues which hinder and negativly effect all individual who share the same amount of Melanin. But, we too are to blame for not holding them accountable.To hear that Obama supports the homos is more valid reason for Nate to retain and reaffirm his stance on this politician; I qua Nate feel as though the NDAA(National Defense Authority Act) is what will shut me up. I am done talking about and publicly supporting matters which the general public consider to be of a terrorist nature. Do I compromise? No, I merely rescind my Nate from looming persecution.
I type this while sippin’ cheap wine and listening to St. Vincent’s song Grot; it is on repeat. In the song, power is the premise and is said repeadiatly: the motif. It makes my Nate wonder…

Grot by St. Vincent

Power doesn’t care what you want
Power just wants to watch
Power doesn’t care what you need
As long as you’re on your knees

Power pigs
Power pigs
Power kills
Power wills

Power doesn’t care what you think
Power just wants a little piece
And power doesn’t care how you feel
As long as you learn how to kneel

…It’s way to many cameras spying all over this Earth and I can’t hide. To end up like Nat Turner: not the goal. And with the NDAA signed into law by Obama, the U.S.A. can detain an individual indefinitely, international or DOMESTIC, w/o the burden of proof, if: the Govt feels as though the individual is a potential terrorist., or poses a threat. What is a terrorist? The USC does not define this term. Only similar terms, therefor anyone can be a terrorist!
