TO MANY PEOPLE TELL US WHAT’S WRONG BUT HAVE NO SOLUTIONS
We hope that you will take note that the process below we, Oakland Elders, have designed “No Negative Speak” (NNS) to bring Black people together in a positive way, it’s different because we not only tell you we need to become positive with each other and we actually give you a plan, guiding steps, (directions). We firmly believe if anyone is giving us advice, they should also provide the working details. Too many people tell us what’s wrong but no solutions. We believe the simpler solutions provide, the more brilliant the results.
Cosmic Consciousness
The point of this post is to let the world know that Black Oakland Elders of West Oakland Stories Positive Feeling Movement (WOSPFM) have been guiding you into your Positive Cosmic Consciousness when you say the words “No Negative Speak” with each other. Continue using the words and you will see the positive manifestation of a people that the Slave System made negative.
What is Cosmic Consciousness?
We want you to understand Cosmic Consciousness (CC) to be a state of mind where you actively filter your thoughts through positive emotional currents “NNS” before you engage with other people. This is a technique to provide a greater context for who you are.
How Do I Practice Cosmic Consciousness?
Instead of giving a person or situation the power to make you react from a place of uncertainty, fear, or anger, we want you to use your Cosmic Consciousness. “NNS” and “CC” are interchangeable. Don’t try to explain “NNS” – using the words are simply the path way to your “CC”. We made a film about the West Oakland community to prove our point.

1. You carry a lifetime of positivity in you – you are just not aware of it.
2. Remember the big picture – we’re all tasked with being better versions of ourselves over time. Be patient with yourself and others. Don’t get it twisted always watch your surroundings.
