It's our duty as youths to carry forward our ancestors' baton.

Not vote, but land. Not request, but restitution.
Sio kura, ni ardhi. Sio ombi, ni urejesho.

En Brasil, incautaron una gran de cantidad de armas a bandas criminales dedicadas al narcotráfico y a la trata de personas... y, sorpresa, todas las armas incautadas a las bandas eran de EEUU.

EEUU usa a América del Sur para hacer negocio con el narcotráfico y la venta de armas, junto a la trata de personas, son los mayores negocios del mundo capitalista y con lo que financian sus guerras imperialistas, con dinero negro, sin pasar por el congreso y sin rastros.

Al igual que ocurre en África, el imperialismo te crea la enfermedad (terrorismo, narcotráfico... ) para luego venderte la medicina (ayudarte a combatirlo) a cambio de explotar tus recursos petroleros o mineros... a EEUU y al imperio occidental no le interesa que los países prosperen, quieren una desestabilización perpetua para que siempre seas dependiente de su "ayuda".

Israel is a Western colony. There is no way around this material fact. Its weapons, people, and the support it receives are all Western. The corporations and interests it serves are Western. Zionism itself is built on the template of European colonialism.

African nations are taking charge of their own decisions because "Western countries failed to bring about Africa's economic emancipation," Godfrey Mchungu told Sputnik Africa.

Africa needs to exit the so called Pelindaba treat as a matter of civilisational survival.

After sabotaging an education system for decades, muzungus at the UN have suddenly discovered that the issue primarily lies in classroom language.
If you've not picked it up yet, this is insulting & racist: the reason you're poor is bc you don't quite grasp muzunguman's language.

Mind you that same day the Israeli Ambassador was only 1 of 8 ambassadors to present their letters of credence to him.

He also met with the Ambassador of Bangladesh 🇧🇩, Tanzania 🇹🇿, Indonesia 🇮🇩, Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦, Somalia 🇸🇴, Angola 🇦🇴, & Malta 🇲🇹 .

But okay. What can you say? Screw information. They prefer headlines, even fake ones.

@DavidHundeyin The algerian osint guy trying to frame it as though israel is trying to encircle Alg via BF and The AES when infact, Algeria is in bed with france(its former coloniser) + mauritania to break up Mali & create the azawad rep.

[Queen Afrika @Dear_Afrika]

Africa has everything needed to prosper. The missing ingredient isn't potential. It's unity, accountability, and the courage to build institutions that serve Africans before foreign interests.

🇨🇱 | Did you know that FIFA once forced a World Cup match to be played inside a concentration camp?

The Soviet Union refused to play in Pinochet's Estadio Nacional, where thousands were tortured.

So Chile took the field against no one and scored into an empty net. Read on.

Elon: USAID money was used to push for the violent overthrow of African governments.

In a bid to defend himself, the truth is coming out. Interesting.

A good day for Pan-African conspiracy theorists. 🕺🕺🕺

[Farida Bemba Nabourema @Farida_N]

The diaspora is not treating investment like charity. It is literally replacing the state. That $100 billion is not going to consumption out of a lack of financial vision. It is keeping families alive because African governments have abdicated every responsibility they were supposed to carry. School fees, hospital bills, housing, food: the diaspora is subsidising what governance failed to provide, mostly while barely surviving themselves in expensive cities abroad.

[Rakesh Kumar @Rakeshhkumaar]

“I don’t believe in charity. I believe in solidarity. Charity is vertical, so it’s humiliating. It goes from the top to the bottom. Solidarity is horizontal. It respects the other and learns from the other. I have a lot to learn from other people.”

-Eduardo Galeano

[Sony Thăng @nxt888]

Here is the most important thing to understand about the argument you are making.

It is not new.

Every generation of people who have benefited from the extraction of African wealth has produced a version of your argument to explain why the extraction is not the explanation.

In the 18th century it was: they are heathens, without Christian civilization they are nothing.

In the 19th century it was: they are savages, the white man's burden is to civilize them.

In the early 20th century it was: they are childlike, they need colonial administration to function.

In the mid 20th century it was: they are not ready for self-governance, independence is premature.

In the late 20th century it was: their cultures are incompatible with development, corruption is intrinsic.

In the 21st century it is: they choose not to educate themselves, they are savage toward the volunteers who try to help, look at the IQ map.

The conclusion is always the same: the people being extracted from are the explanation for their own condition.

The mechanism changes every generation.

The conclusion does not.

Because the conclusion is not the result of the analysis.

The conclusion is what the analysis is constructed to protect.

You are not making an observation about Africa.

You are participating in a long, self-serving, continuously updated tradition of providing intellectual cover for an arrangement that has worked very well for some people and very badly for others.

An arrangement that requires, in every generation, a new vocabulary for the same old story.

The story is old.

The vocabulary is yours.

But the function is identical.

🇧🇫🤝🇹🇿 Burkina Faso and Tanzania are deepening their diplomatic partnership, opening new opportunities for cooperation, trade, and African unity. Stronger African collaboration can help drive sustainable growth across the continent.

I hope this partnership succeeds🌍

@jnyairo @JesseKenya Kenya shows off about the protests when they go abroad. They say Kenya is a vibrant democracy with a strong constitution. Imagine that. Oppressing people then showing off to the west that we're resisting. I still can't wrap my mind around that.
