I was born December 19, 1967 to Henderson Ford and Lenora. I was born into a population of Niggas, blind to the knowledge of self, culture, and environment, deaf to Wisdom and the Law and Word of God." I never knew my mind and environment were one and the same, nor did I know that my mind was being clay shaped through space and time, TV and radio, words and images. Looking for answers, I traveled and experienced many situations and problems from bullies in the school to trying to avoid my mother's violent behavior. These experiences led me to the streets, to gangs, drugs, murder, prison, and, ultimately, to enlightenment. Prison is where I discovered my mind, discovered who I was, who I am, and what I am naturally created to be! On September 18, 2001, seven days after the September 11th bombings, I was freed from prison, freed back into a population of niggas. Most people think that a Nigga is a black person, but in reality, it's a behavior that's being promoted in every society crossing over in every ethnic group. Knowing and understanding that I am made in the image of God, now I strive from thought to thought to be God, not just in thought, but in mind, body, and spirit. This is my story, From a Nigga to a God. Antonio FordJuly 2012
