They will tell you that Africans lived in huts, but won’t tell you that the rest of the world also lived in huts. Everyone lived in housing favorable to their climate and environment, not what you see today.
I said it once and I'll say it again: by the time this regime is done with us this country will be a desert. This is rabid cutting down of trees and is ecocide. This destruction is abnormal.
Affordable Protein should be a key topic at the Agriculture Summit. We are letting Kenyan children down and setting them up for life long being behind on many markets including brain development and height. Many especially urban poor are surviving on carbs like chips mwitu.
Indimuli is right.
Lulu Hassan,Trevor Ombija & Steven Letoo choosing to vie with UDA is the biggest fuck you to the people & to humanity.
Enough reason to deny them your votes btw.
Keeping everyone (including Africans) completely ignorant about Africa and the central role it plays in the economic and natural world is a core feature of Europeanised education, not a bug.
You're not supposed to know that the DRC is the most resource-rich country in the world, with an estimated $24 trillion sitting under its soil. You're not supposed to know that the rise of "western civilisation" from the 15th century on was entirely made possible by European contact with Africa, and that the resources and labour extracted from coastal West Africa from 1492 onwards are the entire reason why both American continents exist in their current form.
You're not supposed to know that both WW1 and WW2 were essentially wars fought over the right to African colonial domination and expansion, and that even the uranium that was used in "Little Boy" and "Fat Man" dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki came from Shinkolobwe uranium mine in eastern DRC. You're not supposed to know that the reason the country of France exists in its current form is because tens of thousands of conscripted West African soldiers fought and won against the Nazis in Europe, and the French thereafter shipped them back to West Africa and massacred them at Camp Thiaroye in Senegal to avoid paying them their due wages.
You're not supposed to know that there was nothing cold about the so-called Cold War, because the vast majority of the hot theaters it was physically fought in were on the continent of Africa. (Zimbabwe, DRC, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Angola, Eritrea, Zambia etc). You're not supposed to know that the ongoing Ukraine war and the war in the Sahel are in fact the same conflict being fought by the same 2 sides, and that the reason France is desperately pushing funding and arms to Ukraine even as it falls into internal crisis is that Ukraine is acting as its proxy army in West Africa, as it tries to regain its lost colonial territories there, especially Niger where the cheap yellowcake uranium for its famously cheap nuclear energy used to come from before the 2023 revolution.
You're definitely not supposed to know that the entire global economy and system of trade as you know it is built on ruthless extraction from Africa and ensuring that Africa does not control anything it exports. You're not supposed to know that "Italian leather" doesn't come from Italy - it comes from Kano, Nigeria. You're not supposed to know that "Swiss chocolate" does not exist because cocoa does not grow anywhere in Switzerland or Europe - it comes from Ghana, Cote d'Ivoire and Nigeria. You're not supposed to know that Israel and the UAE control the global diamond and gold markets even though Israel has no diamond mine and the UAE has zero gold mines, because both resources are literally being stolen from the DRC and Sudan on an industrial basis.
You're basically not supposed to understand that the entire geopolitical world as you know it, rests entirely on extraction from Africa, poverty of Africans, and your own ignorance about where everything you use comes from.
Completely deliberate 500+ year-old feature, not accidental bug.

Children can't even attend school peacefully due to militia attacks and tensions. Imagine a child being deprived of education simply because the land they live on is rich in minerals that some greedy companies want to exploit.
Milk 500ml at 80 bob, if you can even get it
An egg at 17 bob
Beef racing towards 1000 bob a kilo
The average family has 2-3 kids. How often are they getting their recommended daily protein intake at that price?
Our food conversations must go beyond the price of unga
I was reading up on the slave trade and specifically the trans Saharan slave trade . The Arabs unlike the Europeans were very afraid of Africans having children with their women. They knew that at some point some of their women would stray , their solution wasn't stopping the trade no. They made eunuchs . They cut of the whole penise and testicles leaving a hole . The procedure was rarely successful only 1 in ten survived . This way the slaves would serve even bathing their women . Some even suspect that the Arab men known for their homosexuality would defile this half men .
The problem was unlike the Americans who could breed their slaves to have more slaves ,the Arabs needed fresh slaves to replace them . This proves why there are no descendants of slaves in all Arab nations.
While all this was happening they never forgot to pray and fast . Wherever there is too much religion evil is a foot . Just look at statehouse right now .
Girls girl is a thing only available on social media, allegedly this lady went to report a defilement case to her 14 year old sister by a 50 Year old man and the lady who was at the OB requested 10k for them to arrest the suspect, she was later told to go away ama awekwe ndani.
i feel like in all the time I’ve been writing about rape and rape culture—which is what, over 15 years now—I’m continuously astounded that the concept that rapists LIE always never seems occur to people
