Zimbabwe – How do you feel about revolutions?

“You must be militant, you must be radical; you must be resolute in defence of your own organisation,” said Malema. [FULL ARTICLE]

But while they were still applauding, he changed the tune, and told them what they least expected to hear: denouncing violence.

“But militancy does not mean cutting people hands, militancy does not mean violent politics, militancy means you must be vigilant, you must be on the ground, you must be in each and every corner of Zimbabwe.”

The silence among the youths – who for all along had been applauding even the smallest of greetings – was enough evidence that they did not expect that from Malema.

And he didn’t stop there. He warned them that violence could attract an international invasion.”

“Once we engage in violent means of politics, we run the risk of giving imperialists the reason why they must invade Zimbabwe… If you fight people physically, you are giving them an opportunity to slaughter everybody, because theirs is to slaughter those who disagree with them,” added Malema.”

Do you all feel like Zimbabwe fears imperialists? or is not prepared?

See the hand that guides the strings in some instances:

“They are today burning liberation songs in South Africa because the untransformed judiciary is still controlled by the whites who are resistant to change… anything they do not like they decide to go to court and bury it,” he added.“It is a sad day that in our own country during democracy we can’t sing liberation songs, you will be arrested for undermining a judgement by the court. What is the difference between what they are doing now with what they did during apartheid?”

He said he was prepared to be jailed for singing the song.

“They must know we will never retreat. If it means singing this song in South Africa is a straight way into jail, we are prepared to go to jail and sing this song, we are prepared to be arrested, we are prepared to be exiled… they will never tell us which songs to sing, which leader to worship.”

So how is South Africa changed? Any SF on wordpress? Hello?

Kenya – Mothers take a stand against western ideologies

Finally – any stand is a good stand.

To those unfamiliar, strollers are viewed as cages and contraptions for containing children, when in fact children should be close to their mothers.

We are holding to our cultural roots by continuing with our traditions, though former and present colonialists are trying to force us to help feed their families by purchasing items that do not agree with our culture [- Full Article -]:

“Across Africa, women can be seen carrying sleeping or sometimes giggly babies on their backs, swathed in cloth. The babies move to the sway of their mothers’ hips, synchronized throughout the day, bending with them as they collect water or sweep the floor and rising again when the women stop to rest. They hang on as their mothers sell food in the market or pray at a church or mosque.

The introduction of strollers and baby carriages, both known here by the British word “pram,” horrifies traditionalists, even someone such as Wambui, who sells them.”

‘Irene Wambui can’t imagine why anyone would buy a baby stroller. She says she sees it as a cold cage filled with useless rattles, cup holders and mirrored headlights. Imagine children being stuffed into such a contraption and pushed around town like some kind of pet.’

Valuable Insight, Wisdom and Genius spoken by our sisters and brothers:

“The stroller has sparked debate among African pediatricians who think the device — first crafted as a labor-saving tool for the European middle class — may damage the relationship between a mother and a child.

“The pram is the ultimate in pushing the baby away from you,” said Frank Njenga, a child psychiatrist in Nairobi, Kenya’s bustling capital. “The baby on the back is actually following the mother in warmth and comfort. The baby feels safer, and safer people are happier people.”

So that being said unhappy europeans are unhappy because they do not feel safe.

Long ago culturally speaking , black was seen as the color of life (think about rich, black and fertile soil) and white was the color of death (when one dies, one grows pale and takes on a ashen white color).

Iran being bullied by guess who…

One of the colonial weaklings of the past..the europeans (us, british, germany,etc.)

\FULL ARTICLE – “US, Iran clash at UN nuclear meet  Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad blasted the United States at a UN conference here Monday for threatening to use atomic weapons, triggering a sharp American response and a walkout by several delegations.

“Regrettably, the government of the United States has not only used nuclear weapons but also continues to threaten to use such weapons against other countries, including Iran,” he said.

Why can we all just not focus on our respective territories and show a common understanding for love of life – would that not be easier?

“….in a new nuclear policy unveiled last month, it stated that atomic weapons were still part of its defense posture and that it reserved the right to use them against non-nuclear-weapons states, like Iran, which fail to comply with the NPT.

Ahmadinejad called for the United States to be suspended from the UN atomic watchdog’s executive board over its threats to use nuclear weapons.

Besides the United States, fellow nuclear powers Britain and France walked out. Non-nuclear states which also left included Germany, Finland, the Czech Republic and Morocco, according to a Western diplomat..”

You know what they say, when someone is usually right, the person either gets mad or leaves……well you see what happened! Is it not possible for everyone to just obtain nuclear weapons then maybe, just maybe people will treat one another with more respect? due to the impending death that could ensue if they did not.
