- It’s called Christofascism.Why are we such a weird country?
- this is how you do a protest that works. they have to actually be afraid. if they’re not, your protest will be ignored. you can be 100% sure of that.Members of Parliament escaping yesterday in Nairobi, Kenya. This comes after protesting Kenyans stormed Parliament building.
00:00 - Colonialism really did a number on us. There’s almost no continuity between our traditional architecture & the type of concrete blocks we live in today. I’m saddened when I consider what our communities would’ve looked like today if colonisation didn’t disrupt our development.
- They tear-gassed me more times than I can remember. My only regret is I only threw back one. I’ll be back tomorrow with water, more face masks, and so much more anger and hope in my heart. Day 1 was a fantastic success, despite all their machinations. We go again tomorrow.
- Slaves revolting and killing their enslavers is a good thing that you should never try to sanitise or apologize for. It’s a glorious part of our liberation history.
- a 38 year old man doing “what do you bring to the table?” with a 21 year old. i thought we said we were bringing back shame and self-awareness in 2024?The doctor really cooked 👀 He’s 38 and she’s 21. I won’t lie, this is how most young women behave and then they end up losing a good man. Your thoughts guys?
00:00 - this diamond was mined in south africa in 1877, then stolen from them. it is a symbol of apartheid but stan culture has you people bragging that your fave wore it to advertise the business of a french billionaire who makes his money exploiting textile workers in the global south.
- the way it’s so in vogue now on this app for men to just hate women for clicks. you could see a post of four girls sitting outside and sharing a meal and the caption and comments and qts will filled with scenarios of hypothetical crimes they must surely commit on other days.
- We all know who to blame.
The spelling of “bourgeoisie” was intended as yet another means of oppression - “Ever since I was a little boy, I always wanted to be like the people destroying my country. And now I am as rich as them ☺️”‘I’m now richer than politicians, oil moguls I looked up to’ – Burna Boy dailypost.ng/2024/10/26/im-…
- We must start thinking of how to be in solidarity with the Congolese people. Cancel everything with Rwanda. Everything. Their news is very controlled. So many of them think their govt is acting in self defence. You do not invade a country and massacre civilians in self defence.
- Leveraging western earning power to buy up land in Africa and build your private farm, is not how you connect to any African culture.I don’t fuck with Kelis at all but yall are hypocrites. Folks constantly telling Black Americans we don’t have a culture or any connection to Africa then when someone moves to Africa to reconnect then they’re Neo colonizers. You can’t win for losing.
