EQUALITY - The hidden SPICE in #numbers

Crack your Brain and spread the equality spice now

Life is amazing and spiced by numbers in ways we can not comprehend unless we pause and critically take a look at each other. In a world where we each single day witness gender discrimination just baffles me as some people try to come up with excuses that only serve their selfish interests. No matter what we do to justify why we are not equal is only but just a circle that brings us back to the starting point and even remind us more that we are still equal anyway. Equality is the hidden spice in numbers too.
 
We are surrounded by numbers. They inform us of our age, define the day, determine how much we are passionate about something and we even use them to equate stunning figures. But how often do you sit back and become creative and critically look at numbers. Lets talk equality now. Did you know that the sum to all the multiples of the number 9(nine) equal 9 (nine)? I will illustrate this.
9 x 1 = 9
9 x 2 = 18 (1 + 8) = 9
9 x 3 = 27 (2 + 7) = 9
9 x 4 = 36 (3 + 6) = 9
9 x 5 = 45 (4 + 5) = 9
9 x 6 = 54 (5 + 4) = 9
9 x 7 = 63 (6 + 3) = 9
9 x 8 = 72 (7 + 2) = 9
9 x 9 = 81 (8 + 1) = 9

This is the reason we just have to achieve equality in all spheres of life for no matter how we go round in circles we still arrive at the same starting point.

Still don’t believe? Try this out that the sum of the digits that make the answer of every sum is the same whether you count vertically or horizontally. For example;

22 + 40 = 62
(Take 62) 6 + 2 = 8, (2 + 2) + (4 + 0) = 8

Or still crack out this

54 + 98 + 20 = 172
(Take 172 now) 1 + 7 + 2 = 10, (1 + 0) = 1

Better still

(5 + 4) + (9 + 8) + (2 + 0) = 28
(Take 28 now) (2 + 8) = 10, 1 + 0 = 1

It doesn’t matter your justification for inequalities. We are one and equal. You may use my age, my gender, my orientation, my abilities or my colour to pass a point that we are not equal but those are just reasons for discrimination for bottom-line we are equal but with different characteristics creative in our own way. That’s the real spice that humanity is all about.

Lets spread the spice and make a difference for the world can only get better if we all see each other as equal human beings.

Rebel Now!, Dont Just Sit There

We have seen protests, uprisings, calls for change.

We have seen people in the streets, standing up for what they believe in.

That got us thinking at Spice Chungu about our own rebelling, our personal rebellions, our private uprisings, our deep, center of our soul screams for change.

We got to wondering if we had stopped rebelling, as a woman, when was the last time that you stood up the man and said, Yes I am able too

Its time for creativism, rebel against authority, parental impositions, religious manipulations, rules that silence your voice, hypocrisy, the establishment, the system, the man, injustices - both real and perceived.

Its time to rebel against  against society and its norms, challenge the status quo and make a difference today.

After all these years…

You must have grown tired of being beaten down

You must be tired of being violated

You must be tired of being denied of your rights

You must have had enough of the old reality of your life.

The uprising is here, the creativity is here.

We have to make our voice heard.

No matter the circumstances that we find ourselves in, rejection, abuse,

You have to take it to the inner streets of your life

For the soul is screaming and crying for change.

This creative rebellion is the only way to survive.

You must have seen clearly that your biggest, strongest, loudest, most defiant rebellion has been against yourself.

When people see what they believe is an unjust system, they rebel, they get tired and decide to rise, to rebel, to speak for change.

There is a sound in #HeForShe but the voice is much stronger in She, make it heard.

Catalyze social change through #creativism and make a difference.

Lets build a society where being woman or man doesn't have to matter anymore.

We can together at www.spicechungu.org catalyze social change, make a difference through creativism.

Yes! the fight is over and yet it has just begun.

We will not run away from our pain, we will walk towards it and make real change.

Rebel Now! Don't just sit there.

2014 kanthari Dream Speech Erick Matsanza

Erick Matsanza from Kenya participated in the 2014 kanthari leadership program. Erick's vision is that of an open-minded society transformed by the creative and critical voice of women where gender doesn't play a role anymore.

"kanthari is a place where you are limited only by your vision and your passion. I came to kanthari because I was extremely frustrated by the lack of equal educational and professional opportunities for women in western Kenya. I desperately wanted to be able to improve the unfair circumstances of women in my country by creating an organization that will offer them technical and critical thinking skills. But I felt paralyzed and overwhelmed by the magnitude of this task. By forcing me to look at the world and myself through a very different lens, kanthari has taught me how to embrace challenges, trust my passions and have confidence in my abilities. At kanthari I have learned how to take a goal that might seem broad and abstract and break it down into realistic and achievable steps. The kanthari approach is holistic and highly individualized. And being surrounded by such inspirational and unique individuals makes kanthari such a special and transformative experience. My vision and passion will never limit me – they will work in my favor and help me to achieve all of my goals"
