UMOJA INTENTIONAL COMMUNITY
The House of Umoja's Planting Seeds campaign leverages wisdom statements as 11 x 14 posters that are placed on poles and hung throughout underserved, underhoused, and marginalized neighborhoods to lay foundations upon which healthier positive anti-violence thoughts and actions may grow.
Family, let's work to combat the negative and untruthful propaganda that is disseminated daily throughout conversation, in commercials, games, on the air waves, in music and more. It's simple, we each post these thought-provoking positive thoughts within our neighborhoods on a consistent basis. Humans learn through repetition. Let's choose life-giving thoughts and works that will eventually manifest life-giving actions. If we are consistent our efforts will be effective. These wisdom posters are just seeds to be watered by our consistent positive anti-violence loving actions. Planting Seeds is just a quiet support of the work each of us are doing.
HOW TO IMPLEMENT
Please, download the files that speak to you and post in your neighborhood on poles, and at point-of-sale or point-of-order in bodegas, pizza shops, restaurants, churches, community centers and any stores that will allow you to post. Focus on one (1) poster design per week and post 5-20 posters within a one to two mile radius. The next week post another design within another one to two mile radius.
