Fela was way ahead of his time. He was a seasoned artist who understood that music is political and used it to speak the truth of Pan-Africanism. Today's retards of artists who only care about lining their pockets with dollars could never lace his shoes.

Over the years, the UN General Assembly has delivered no shortage of unforgettable moments, from dramatic gestures and controversial remarks to fiery speeches and walkouts.

Here’s a look back at some of the most memorable highlights.

[Merriam-Webster @MerriamWebster]

'Alarm’ was originally a call to arms.

The Italian phrase ‘all’arme!’ means literally “to arms” or “to your weapons.”

We'd still probably hit 'snooze.'

Tried to save her with “your battery died” and ol’ gal said “no, it’s fine” 😂😂😂😂😂😂 let the spokesperson SPEAK!!!

The mass psychosis of colonialists at the time was such that even a central african kingdom like Buganda was thought to have been founded by ancient white people

Where there were no paintings of those mythical founders, they simply invented them

Chinese contractors are flexible and meet their African clients at their level.

Want world class infrastructure and disciplined execution? You’ll get it. Want to play usual games of stealing huge chunks of project finances and delivering shoddy work? You’ll get it.

There are 196 tribes on Earth that still refuse all contact with outsiders. Brazil has 115 of them, more than any country, and its government flies planes over their villages on purpose.

The flyovers exist because of a brutal catch in how Brazil protects land. Forest only gets shielded as Indigenous territory if FUNAI, the Indigenous affairs agency, can prove isolated people actually live there. No proof, and loggers and miners move in. So agents photograph longhouses and gardens from the air, confirm the tribe exists, and never land.

The word "uncontacted" hides the real history. Most of these groups descend from people who met the outside world during the rubber boom a century ago, when enslavement and disease killed roughly 90% of western Amazonia's Indigenous population. Their ancestors ran deeper into the forest and never came back out.

The ones who did come out show why.

The Nahua in Peru were contacted in 1984 after oil exploration opened their land. Half of them were dead within a few years, mostly from colds and flu. The Matis in Brazil were contacted in 1978. Five years later, 87 of them were left. The Panará lost 80% of their people in the eight years after a highway was bulldozed through their forest.

A respiratory bug that costs you three days on the couch can erase half a village with no immunity to it.

So Brazil settled on the strangest conservation policy on Earth. Prove they exist. Guard the borders. Never say hello.

Like clockwork!

The most consistent freestyle platform in the country and I dare to say, in the continent. In fact, I challenge you to find another platform that is as consistent with freestyle rap, anywhere else in the world.

This lady, an American living in Kenya was wondering why our kitchens have doors…

She was told we've evolved - the kitchen used to be a separate building a few metres away from the main house 😂

Pick a side.

Tommy & Israel or Macklemore & Palestine.

There is no middle ground.

[The Tennis Letter @TheTennisLetter]

Elena Rybakina was asked about the stadium clearing out quickly after her win over Coco Gauff at the US Open

“Taking on a fan favorite… we all know, even the fans know tennis is not a picnic. It’s all about winning or losing. Anything can happen. But to be honest I’ve never seen a stadium clear out so quickly like this one. How do you feel in that role being that kind of party crasher?”

Elena: “I don’t know to be honest. I feel like it was a great match. Of course a lot of people today wanted Coco to win. It’s normal. In the beginning I felt like it was a very nice atmosphere. Only in the end when I was up in the third set the crowd really supported a lot Coco. But I tried to focus on myself. Tried to not listen. I feel like for me it was also first match on Ashe at night. I enjoyed the atmosphere even if the crowd was mostly for Coco.” ❤️
