I realized sometimes the people who make the most jokes, and make other people laugh is because they are hurting so much inside.

Forever! Everything I ever did was to inspire my younger brother. He has surpassed my expectations, I don’t think you can wish for anything better. ❤️

It is so strange to hear EFF spokesperson Sinawo Thambo characterizing the IFP as apartheid collaborators with a bloody history. Not too long ago we were told that only self-hating blacks reject Buthelezi and what he stands for.

Democracia.

⚠️ BRAZIL’S DEMOCRACY IS UNDER ATTACK ⚠️

The police and the armed forces are, at this moment, carrying out a coup d'état against our democracy.

There are roadblocks placed in several states where Lula has won at the first round to prevent citizens from voting.

I met an older man who told me his SRC at Wits Uni fought for the use of student numbers rather than names on scripts when writing exams. He says before that, it was near impossible to get a degree with a black name. Some things we benefit from and don't know who gave us.

This is more dystopian than anything Hollywood could dream up.

A very costly mistake people make is to view humility, kindness and a quiet demeanor as a sign of weakness.

One of the oldest Mosques in the world, from the 7th century is in China. Chinese Mosques are often built in a pagoda style with a combination of both Chinese & Islamic aesthetics, unlike the familiar architecture of Mosques with domes & minarets.

In 1807, Omar ibn Said, a Muslim scholar, was stolen from Senegal & sold into slavery in America. He left behind an autobiography written in Arabic.
