“The students who cannot read a 20-page article today are the voters who will not be able to read a bill, or the jurors who cannot follow a closing argument, tomorrow.”
“People get used to anything. The less you think about your oppression, the more your tolerance for it grows. After a while, people just think oppression is the normal state of things. But to become free, you have to be acutely aware of being a slave.” -Assata Shakur
My heart bleeds for Kenyans because we really think we are the exception to Iran , DRC , Sudan , Afghanistan, Nigeria. The pattern is visible and no one is the exception to bad leadership , greed and corruption.
Trump paused USAID when he came to power and said, “Africans should handle African problems.” I wonder why the US wants Kenya, an African country, to handle their Ebola problem.
Tafakari
DRC has been battling repeated ebola outbreaks since 1976. Sometimes it spreads to Uganda which has experience of dealing with it. Suddenly, Kenya that has never had an Ebola case, says it has set up 23 centres, a country whose public healthcare has crumpled?
"Why do Americans think that their lives are more important than the lives of Kenyans?"
My CNN report on the public opposition to an Ebola isolation facility for Americans in Kenya
I think the questions that we are not asking loudly enough are:
If Ebola is mainly in the DRC why is America crying the loudest about it?
How are Americans getting Ebola?
What are Americans doing in DRC?
Shuts down USAID because American Money is for Americans and not Africans
Dumps sick deadly Americans in a third world African country with a failed healthcare system
"The number one priority of our foreign policy is to protect the American people. We can not and will not allow any cases of Ebola to enter the United States" ~ Marco Rubio, US Secretary of State
EBOLA is the most lethal contagious disease in the world. It has no treatment or vaccination.
Bringing Americans who are exposed to EBOLA to Kenya for whatever reasons is an act of HIGH TREASON as it exposes EVERYONE to extinction.
It must be opposed, resisted and overturned. No Ifs or Buts.
