A Series on Africa - Libya and Gaddafi - The Colonel of Controversy and Contradication
Просмотров 9День назад
This is a short account of Libya, mainly after the arrival of Colonel Gaddafi in 1969, its history post Ottoman Empire, post-Italian rule and post-war. In 1945 when the world was finally putting away its weapons and picking up instead debris to clean away the ruins of communities the pride of ignorant men had brought about, other movements were beginning to take shape. There was an opportunity ...

Просмотров 314 дней назад
This is an episode borne of a social media thread which Esheru led and I supported. This chat developed in an impromptu fashion where we were actually going to talk about something completely different. Funnily enough though this was exactly how we met. Esheru leading the fight against racism. That fight is a fight of all conscientious, understanding and awake people. Racism is a path to self-d...
Poetry - My Native Land by Shoshee Chunder Dutt
21 день назад
This poem by Shoshee Chunder Dutt is a wonderful collection of thoughts from the Bengali essayist, writer and poet. It is hard to find information on Shoshee, but a search for him produces a number of educational materials and documents. It is perhaps a compliment that he should be so fixedly remembered in this way, as a teacher and a guide. I would love for people to write to me of Shoshee Chu...

Просмотров 5Месяц назад
In this concluding part of our discussion on Burkina Faso, Esheru and I delve into the horrific loss and significance of the murder of Thomas Sankara by his best friend Blaise Compaore. As if by means of deciding to exemplify exactly what Burkina Faso lost, Ibrahim Traore is blazing a trail of leadership that every people of every nation would wish to find in their government. When left alone t...

Special Episode - The US Election 2024
Просмотров 1Месяц назад
In this the most spontaneous of my recent episodes, Esheru, the gallant, the informed and the flexible, joins me, from a cafe in Sweden no less, to analyse as quickly as his cappuccino would allow, the result of the US Election 2024. We talk about some of the race dynamics, gender breakdown and why things turned out the way they did. Is there any solace to be found from our discussion? We have ...
A Series on Africa - Burkina Faso - Part 2 - The Story of Thomas Sankara
Просмотров 4Месяц назад
This episode delves deeper into the human wonder that was Thomas Sankara in part two of our podcast on Burkina Faso. Sankara was a visionary, a dedicated Burkinabe and someone who genuinely wanted to make the world a better place. Even when in following the letter of the law, some people who failed in a coup against him were executed, he was dismayed. He did not want them to be executed. Yet he...
A Series on Africa - Burkina Faso - Part 1
Просмотров 7Месяц назад
This episode begins the multi-part journey that is the story of post-war Burkina Faso. It is so full of characters, twisting plots, love and deceit, violence and intrigue, it would have been a bestseller, had it ever been reported properly. Always remember the name Thomas Sankara! That is the way unfortunately. Once-colonial powers will cling on any way they can and on this occasion, the clingi...
Feminism through Art with Lulu
Просмотров 112 месяца назад
We don’t always seek alternative perspectives to our own when we are engaged in heated debate. We don’t reflect how our words may strike others. We don’t always focus on what is happening around us when we have something to say ourselves. With Lulu we discuss on the topic of feminism and how through incorporating feminist ideals into how we live, we can achieve elevated levels of understanding ...
A Series on Africa - The Democratic Republic of Congo
Просмотров 272 месяца назад
In this episode I am joined once again by Esheru to continue our journey through the continent of Africa and to combine our thoughts on the political, social and economic factors that plague and influence the fortunes of the nation. In this episode we look at the Democratic Republic of Congo and glance occasionally across its borders and sometimes further afield when attempting to gage how far ...
A Series on Africa - the continent that has given the world so much!
Просмотров 72 месяца назад
Activism knows many faces. As does racism, prejudice and discrimination. We live in societies where colour is political, social and economic. It is family and it is enmity. It is a call to arms. It is a fight for justice. It is a struggle against oppression. It has long since been the latter. In this new series, I am joined by the activist who inspired it. Esheru is an activist who is indefatig...
Poetry - The Refugees by Randall Jarrell
Просмотров 92 месяца назад
Randall Jarrell was a poet who died far too young at the age of 51. There are far too many who have died at the tender age of far-too-young. Today that list grows and grows anew. This poem, entitled The Refugees and published in 1942 resonates loudly in the world that we have created or that we have allowed to be created in our name. We have not become a society overtaken by spreading apathy, w...
Why does the Right dislike…Foreigners!
Просмотров 33 месяца назад
In continuing the “Why the Right dislikes…” series, I take a look at a few topics in one go. The main emphasis is on the xenophobic slant of most right-wing rhetoric these days, but there is also a fair chuck of attention paid to where that xenophobia comes from, why, and what the purpose is. I don’t believe my thoughts here can be applied to every right-wing extremist; I doubt that such a gene...
Blockaded for 9 months and the UN did nothing - A story of the Armenians
Просмотров 43 месяца назад
The genocide that Azerbaijan committed against the Armenians of Artsakh is not a question of debate. Armenians lived in their ancestral homes of thousands of years until one day they did not. They were not politely asked to leave, they did not sell their homes, they did not leave because they wanted a change. They were attacked by an aggressive dictatorship and forced to leave or die after a 9-...

    Slavery in Africa began before any record of history in Africa. The same applies everywhere. I'ts just like gluttony or lust, a potential vice of the human psyche and society.

    Every race I've ever encountered has in group preferences for their own & have some sort of apprehensions about the traits of races other than their own. Using the dreaded and divisive word "racism" to try to abolish or make someone ashamed of a natural instinct is wrong.
