Lessons In Lyric

When Asked To Edit This Great Literary Work Of Poet Jahne Jahmal Westmoreland-El I Did Not Take It Lightly. I Graciously Accepted And Found It To Be Exactly As I Had Thought It Would Be; The Work Of A Great Artist. I Have Known Jahmal For More That Twelve Years And Have Discovered That He Is Wise Beyond His Years Highly Intelligent And Deeply Concerned About People. I Did Not Hesitate When I Was Asked To Edit This Project Because It Gave Me The Rare An Unusual Opportunity To Be The Second Person To Read This Mind Soul And Body Stirring Poetry Before Other People In The World Got Their Hands On It... Sincerely Gigi Tinsley M. Theo M. Psych. Editor Publisher And Writer This Book Was Written To Educate Build Character Spiritually Enrich Its' Readers And In A Nutshell Provide Pertinent Information To Assist Others In Preparation For The New Age Which Is To Commence On 2012. Also This Book Was Written To Raise The Awareness Of Men And Women Of The African Diaspora Of The Age Old African Matriarchal/Matrilineal Custom. For Such Was The Basis Of Ancient African Society. A Greater Reception Of The African Woman Wherever She Might Be On The Earth'S Stage Is Imperative That We Have If We Are To Ever Move Forward As A People. In African Traditional Society When We Speak Of Matriarchal Rule We Are Speaking Of A Reality Whereby The Woman Was The Landowner The Elector Of Officials Keeper Of The Royalty And Guardian Of The Purity Of The Lineage She As A Woman Had Synonymity With Wisdom. This Is The Kind Of Reception Of African Women That Needs To Return I'M Saying If We Are To Forward As A People.
