This party which used to call itself the servent of the people, which used to claim that it worked for the full expression of the people's will, as soon as the colonial power puts the country into its control hastens to send the people back to their caves. - Frantz Fanon

Mexico abolished slavery in 1829. Enslaved people were escaping to Mexico. The U.S. tried to get Mexico to sign a fugitive slave treaty to return escapees but Mexico refused to sign such a treaty, insisting that enslaved people were free once they set foot on Mexican soil.

—Did you know that Juneteenth is also celebrated in a part of Mexico?
Nacimiento Mexico was once home to thousands who escaped slavery in the US. As many as 10,000 slaves followed a clandestine Southern Underground Railroad to Mexico.

—To date, many Black Mexicans from the Texas area retrace a portion of the same route their African American ancestors followed in 1850 when they escaped slavery.

—Descendants of slaves who escaped across the southern border observe Texas’s emancipation holiday with their own unique traditions in the village of Nacimiento.

—Slave hunters would patrol the southern border for escapees, led by the Texas Rangers but the Mexican army would be there waiting for them (the slave hunters) to turn them away.

“We were involved in several coups in Africa and also in the spread on HIV in Africa”. Africans need to know they have no friend but people who are only interested in their resources.

Imagine if every back yard had a food garden no matter how small it is? This is how to address hunger from family level. You can't grow everything but you will save and cut monthly costs.

Let's make Agriculture fashionable.

Last night, I had the privilege of attending an education fundraising Gala Dinner in Moletsi, hosted by Kgoši Kgabo Wa Boraro. It was my first time hearing the Premier of Limpopo, Phophi Ramathuba, speak, and I was truly impressed by her presence and eloquence. While I may not always agree with her views, I believe it's important to acknowledge her contributions and the positive strides she is making in leadership.

There's no true leader amongst you who would make you fight amongst each other along political lines and do nothing about it. You guys are just playing games, shem.

At this rate, we are going nowhere as a people if we fail to grow.

Your leaders would seek to work together for the same goal instead of delaying progress by acting like they fighting each other while you clap hands.

It is very wrong for black people to expect others to teach us our history, and give an accurate account of it.

We must at all time, be on the driving seat, we must fund our own education, and teach it to our people.

In the early 1st century, Strabo documented the native name of the Berber tribes of Mauretania as Mauri. This term was later translated as "Moors" in English and other European languages. Isidore, Plautus, Manilius and Procopius all provided accounts that support and align with Strabo's observations on the subject.

Another key to Faso's success, is the absence of tribalism within their political discourse.

Captain Traore originates from a minority Dyula Tribe. A group that derives from the Mande people in West Africa. This has not stopped the Mossi majority from working with him 100%.
