One of the top two most £vi| men to ever exist: King Leopold II of Belgium.
He was responsible for the deaths of over 10 million Afr!cans, yet he is rarely included on lists of “evil men.”.
#Colonisation_barbare: Nous n’oublierons jamais ce que les Blancs nous ont fait subir depuis deux siècles. Ils étaient barbares, racistes, violeurs. Ils ont torturé nos ancêtres, les ont égorgés, coupé leurs mains, emprisonnés sans nourriture ni eau. Nous enseignerons cela à nos futurs enfants jusqu’à notre dernier souffle.

Patrice Lumumba, the first Prime Minister of the Congo 🇨🇩 who was executêd in a firing squad and his body was dissolved in sulfuric acid, by Belgium/USA allies because he tried to protect his country’s minerals.
They'll let this be in History books. 💔💔
The giraffe (CIC JSM) has warned us that shit was about to hit the fan, but we chose to be ignorant. Even SAPS is not spared, rena re bo mang? #Sisekakeni
Last night, our long-range sanctions once again reached the Moscow region – for the second time this week, the Moscow oil refinery was hit. Targets were also struck in the Rostov region and in temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. This is a fully justified response to Russian attacks on our cities and communities, and another important result of our warriors’ work against facilities that sustain Russia’s war machine. I thank our Defense and Security Forces of Ukraine for their coordinated efforts – the Security Service of Ukraine, the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Special Operations Forces, Defense Intelligence, and our missile brigade for their precision.
In recent days, all of our partners have noted the precision and effectiveness of our mid-range strikes and long-range sanctions. It is time the war ended, and Russia must take the necessary steps in diplomacy.
I'm busy cooking at this late hour because tomorrow I'm expecting a very important person. The lady who was a nanny to my child since she was 6 months old. When my daughter graduated at Vega University, she took centre stage as her Mother.
Ausi Modiehi was born in Burgersdorp, next to Aliwal North in the Eastern Cape. She got married to a man from Lesotho who was working in the mines in Welkom. Historically mines used to recruit workers from SADEC countries, including Namibia, Swaziland and further North, Malawi, Zambia etc. Her husband left the mines sick with tuberculosis, went back home and died.
After his death, she left the kids to come seek employment in Johannesburg, as a South African. She landed into our lives, my daughter and I. She has been part of our family to date, even though we live apart.
Her adult children, who are like my own children, are considered foreign nationals. Illegal ones, until they can get their naturalized identification. Currently we have done DNA tests to verify that she is their mother. They have to get police clearance from Lesotho to confirm that they have not committed any crimes. It is the law and the process that must be followed and we have to abide. I should mention that she had been trying for many years, Home Affairs failing her, until I had to step in. Maybe they wanted bribes, who knows.
I was just reflecting on the historical complexities of this country and migration issues, and how we have practical examples of cross border relations and inter-marriages, especially with neighboring countries, Botswana, Lesotho, Swaziland, Mozambique and Zimbabwe. No intention to open any debate pro or against migration. This is just a personal intimate reflection.
