Q&A With Michelle Diane

WHY IS THE SKY BLUE?
"When the sky is blue, it isn't always, it is because our atmosphere filters out the majority of the infrared light from the sun. However, at sunrise and sunset the sun is closer to the earth and as atmospheric filtering is rendered less efficient by proximity, we are then, therefore, able to see the reds and oranges of the infrared spectrum."

Are you a Nu-Afrikan
"Nope; been African all my life. :-)"

Interviewed by james harris 11/16/10

Do you find it scary that Black people don't even care about being African anymore?
"Scary? No, heartbreaking, and I don't think it's so much that they/we don't care as it it that so many of us have simply forgotten. We've been so long inundated with misinformation, so mired in the insanity of Stockholm syndrome that we don't remember who we are or that your blood runs in my veins. "

Interviewed by Christine Govenor 11/14/10

Are you considered a leader or a follower? Please explain...
"I'm certainly not a follower, but you'd have to ask the folks around me if I'm a leader. I am an example and I strive to walk in the love and excellence I call for from all of us."

Interviewed by Cynthia Merrill Artis 11/14/10

Do you think elementary school children of color could benefit from being taught about the historical of achievements of people who look like them? If
"I believe all children benefit from accurate knowledge of their history, both achievements and missteps. I think African American children, particularly post-integration, are increasingly denied such knowledge. The ramifications of the failure to ground our children in the truths of both history and current realities are manifest in the exorbitant/disproportionate murder, incarceration and suicide (HIV) rates ravaging our communities. I believe it is equally important to have an accurate historical knowledge of the folks who don't look like them. Key word: accurate. The old folks used to say, "keep your friends close and your enemies closer;" take it as you will. Though, in 2009, I see little reason to defend against or even attack either the lies or the liars; I think it imperative we stay alert, awake and above the deception. We are empowered to wield Truth, to the extent we've learned to recognize and reject the lies. "

What book have you read that changed your life?

About   (request update)
I am enigma. I'm a well educated thug minister of God's word. I've got a big mouth, a "black coffee" way with words and a heart that, though shattered several times, is overflowing with love.

I tend to be a homebody. I like quiet times, good books and great films. I'm fascinated and talented with words; reading and writing bring me much joy and peace.

I own and operate:
Not Ur Momma's News, NUMN Publications and All Things NUMN

My Interview Question
Is truth absolute or subjective?
Current Whereabouts:

Equipping an army to take the kingdom of Heaven.

Empowering, educating and activating African America to walk in Divine authority; and let he that would be greatest among you be servant to all.

Supporting, facilitating and creating cyber opportunities for African America to weld and strengthen our collective economic, sociopolitical and spiritual bonds.

Giving glory to God for the metamorphic growth I/NUMN has experienced in the past year and being thankful for your love, support and prayers. They have brought me/us this far; they strengthen and motivate me/us to go forward and I am so grateful.

Publishing Not Ur Momma’s News

Working with online entrepreneurs and becoming entrepreneurs to fortify their confidence, focus their vision and identify and engage their target market.

Life & Professional Aspirations:

My everyday prayer is-God when they look at me, let them see you.

My vision is to share the love of God and bring the knowledge of the Goddess (Wisdom) to the nations.

My vehicle is words.

Activities & Accomplishments:
Facilitated the first panel gathering of African American professionals in a Denver High School

I survived. I was one of less than 20 AA kids in the school and with a white dad and Black mom I pretty much didn't fit anywhere. Half-breed and oreo were painful and hard to swallow.
Experience

Truth is absolute only as a universal law. With people it is subjective because we choose not to be absolute, just as one mans meat is another mans God. We had created in ancient times the symbol of Ma'at holding the scale, weighing the feather of truth and justice against the human heart. This was a reminder to live our lives in balance and to always be conscious of the fact of natural order. Peace
