DAY 25/60 • UNDLELA ZIMHLOPHE • 
[ Language - Xhosa, South Africa. Meaning - the African Dream Root, literally “the way/path of white things/symbols” is an herb native to the eastern cape of South Africa long used to treat fever and delirium and stimulate vivid or lucid dreams, which they believed helped them communicate with their ancestors. ]

"We have to realize our black heritage in order to give us strength to move on and progress. But as far as returning to the old African culture, it's unnecessary and it's not advantageous in many respects. We believe that culture itself will not liberate us. We're going to need some stronger stuff." — Huey Newton

God promised in his book the Bible that he would save the world and all the nations and tribes." — excerpt from The Maasai Creed.
