G.o.r.i.l.l.a Circle Street Wear – Real
G.o.r.i.l.l.a Brand came to life out of dissatisfaction in September 1993. Dissatisfied
because there is a control of our celebration but it’s not by us. And, since dissatisfaction
brings about change the Circle has come to G.o.r.i.l.l.a the reigns back. The word
G.o.r.i.l.l.a is an acronym for Gaining On Realities Inna Land Lost Already and it
clearly states what needs to be done. Our realities must be brought to our attention before
we can celebrate them. We call it G.o.r.i.l.l.a Circle Street Wear for three reasons.
Reason one, to G.o.r.i.l.l.a is the action of gaining on the realities of ourselves, which
we will do in a massive fashion like the Gorilla’s size. The minds and the speaking of our
Nation of people will be tight like the Gorilla's troop from the action of G.o.r.i.l.l.a'n.
Reason two, the Circle represents our Black and Brown World, living our Black and Brown lives and experiencing
our Black and Brown experiences. Reason three, the Street represents the unapologetic realness of
life which is parallel to the written realness of being – born – Black or Brown!
For instance the
reality of the magnificent Blackwoman and Brownwoman we have been blessed with she is the second self
of the GOD. She was chosen specifically to work with the GOD to create and recreate Life. She is the mineral rich Black and Brown Earth who loves their men enough to take his seed and
reproduce him over and repeatedly and that is just one of the Supreme attributes of these
two extraordinary women. And we all know seven days without a True Blackwoman or Brownwoman makes 1 weak. Now, how
can we not step back re-think what we thought then bear witness these women are the
truth and then celebrate their nature! Then we have this Blackman and this Brownman, Gomar Oz Dubar, the possessor
of wisdom, strength and beauty. He also is the possessor of the force and the power to
get things done. How can we not celebrate their nature? Then we have these Black and Brown babies the
best of both worlds, enough said!
It is very necessary that we gain on the realities that
Blackfolks and Brownfolks are worth much more than what we see and hear on a daily. Therefore, it is time
for us to do us unshaken and unstirred. The story that the Real G.o.r.i.l.l.a is telling
is not the story being told by the other people. Beloved, what other people do is they
hide our real celebration behind their back and then they concoct a whole new celebration
to give to the masses of our folks and that’s what we are celebrating. A wise Blackman once
said that until the lion tells his own story the tale of the hunt will always glorify the
hunter. Meaning, until we stand up and take back the control of our celebration we will
keep glorifying the other people with all of our good Black and Brown energy. Now seeing how our
glorification of self had and has gotten sidetracked the Circle is here to get us back on
it.
So, fear not family since word is bond and bond is life we are about to get G.o.r.i.l.l.a
with it. For that reason the Circle is giving us back our value and our meaning. Make sure
you overstand this, when something is aesthetically beautiful people naturally react to it.
Then when you can assign a meaning and a value to that something and then summarize or
capture them both instantly, people gravitate towards whatever that something is. Now let
us tell our own story.
The Circle is Blackfolk and Brownfolk conceived, Blackfolk and Brownfolk owned and
Blackfolk and Brownfolk controlled. It presents a very governed point of view, this is a place where we
can tell our-story and tell it the way we want it to be told to pave a different way for
us to look at ourselves. We are creating something to be held to the highest standards giving
news to the universe and giving it to universe unvarnished. Because, when we get power of
our own we will get a mind of our own. Then we will start seeing with our own eyes listening
with our own ears and speaking with our own mouths. And last but certainly not least we will
come into definitions from our own brains.
The more we know about ourselves the more
we will fall in love with us, the effect will be a sustainable celebration that's so Real.
Celebrating Blackfolks and Brownfolks is a privilege and a responsibility and we know we can do it in the
right manner. Because, we live in a world that has walls and our walls have to be guarded
by our folks with real knowledge, real muscle and an untainted unconditional love. With respect
to our Nation of Blackfolks and Brownfolks we know it is our responsibility to strictly police the dignity,
integrity, image, pride and respect of our folks. We have learned that the respect of a people
is heavier than the fear of a people. With that, the Circle has a greater duty
that most of you could not possibly fathom. G.o.r.i.l.l.a Circle Street Wear - Real
G.o.r.i.l.l.a Brand is at home in this celebration the other people are just visiting.
