What people don't entirely grasp about oppression is that it doesn't simply dispossess you of land, labour and resources. It also dismantles your imagination. The ingenuity of your ancestors is suppressed, redirected or rendered irrelevant in service of the colonising power.

I grew up around the townships of Cape Town; Langa, Gugulethu, Nyanga and Khayelitsha. I knew hard-working black people. I watched them fill overcrowded trains in the mornings, sometimes literally hanging out of the doors, on their way to work. 2/

…you might not see race, they do.

in july, the public protector found that the DA deliberately prioritised white areas over black communities in terms of service delivery.

Women’s health is important and complicated. People deal with a lot in silence because the TL is quicker to shame instead of understanding them for taking care of their bodies.

And even though people have said to use it for their skin, we need to remember yeast infections are normal guys.

They aren’t beating the allegations about how they feel about black people sadly

Jail them all. Don’t tell me about them being kids. Kids don’t do this.

Do babies develop accents even before they can speak conventionally?

The short answer is yes… and these linguistic markers begin even sooner than you might think.

So many of you tagged me in this video yesterday featuring an infant that babbles with the same Scouse accent as his mother.

Other than “no” he doesn’t speak a single conventional word, but listen to how the rhythm and intonation of his vocalizations mirror those to which he is exposed daily.

As hearing becomes functional during the third trimester, infants are exposed to the distinct patterns of their mothers’ native language - with studies suggesting newborns can already distinguish (and prefer) what will become their native tongue only hours after birth.

Incredibly this learning doesn’t wait until the babbling stage to evidence itself.

Research suggests that even the cries of newborns reflect this preference.

That’s right: babies cry with an accent.

One major study on the topic showed that French babies cry with a rising intonation, while German infants favor a falling melody - both reflecting the patterns of their native languages.

We’re only just beginning to understand the deep learning that begins in utero. It’s just more evidence that the period from prenatal to three is the most critical window in all of human development.

Calls for equality sound like oppression to those that benefit from inequality…

[Ottilia Anna MaSibanda @MaS1banda]

120 years ago today ovaHerero launched a rebellion in Namibia.
7 months later the genocide of ovaHerero started.
German General Lothar von Trotha issued the annihilation order, calling it "a race war" against "non-humans"

It would last 4 years.

Never forget.

The same Banks Government rushed to rescue with R185bn of the R200bn covid relief grant in 2020 where only R3.75bn was given to Black SMEs are the same Banks who were busy defrauding SA Hundreds of Billions for over a decade. The Private Sector is extremely gifted in Corruption.

[Great Zulu👑 @SuperiorZulu]

South Africa saw a high rate of vehicle repossessions in Q1 2023 amounting to R4bn default payments due to high inflation. It's been proven that Banks were purposely manipulating the Rand causing inflation to spike so they benefit. A Classic Case of how Corrupt Private Sector is.
