There are many different definitions of "Art". Some would say it is a thing of expression, created by one person,
in any of a multitudes of different mediums,and experienced by another .
However The time of the Seventh Fire is a time of learning the "art of living life" as an artform. Our own lives
are the canvases upon which we lay the paint and direct the strokes, and create the patterns of our futures.

"The words of a poet can strip the truth
bare...like a bird plucked of its' feathers
naked, exposed to the world.
Or, they can embellish, creating a romantic
fantasy to dive into....letting imaginations
runs wildly."

August Wilson's Sacred Book The shattering of a culture, a sense
of separation, a loss of identity -- all too-constant patterns in black American history -- emerge
in questions of self worth, images of severed ties, things broken, a fractured reality, in the
works of playwright August Wilson. In language is identity, and in speech the tool to tell one's
history, to name and define the world in order to make it one's own; his characters' struggle
against the alienation of immersion into the language of a world which denies them their own is a
common element of Wilson's plays. August Wilson looks to the rhythms and patterns of the music and
sound of the blues to provide a link for disparate words and world views. In this portrait of the
playwright, August Wilson shows how the rhythms and patterns from the 'sacred book of blues' are
transformed into words and movement in his plays. Produced by Stephen Smith of Minnesota Public
Radio. Listen to August Wilson's Sacred Book with Real Player
This is a crazy world. What can be done? Amazingly, we have been mislead. We have been taught that
we can control government by voting. The founder of the Rothschild dynasty, Mayer Amschel Bauer,
told the secret of controlling the government of a nation over 200 years ago. He said, "Permit me
to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes its laws." Get the picture?
Your freedom hinges first on the nation's banks and money system. Freedom is connected with Debt Elimination for each individual. Not only does
this end personal debt, it places the people first in line as creditors to the National Debt ahead
of the banks. They don't wish for you to know this. It has to do with recognizing WHO you really
