I’m not going to generalize this to all Africans. I’m going to speak about my nation. Inferiority complex is implanted in every Sudanese. We constantly bring ourselvesdown. We dislike ourselves. We are always trying to be something we are not. We view ourselves as inferior and others as superior. We need to emancipate ourselves from [...]

When this particular thing called “AfroSpear” was created, we didn’t have a three, six, nine, twelve or thirty-six month plan. We, the six of us, knew a couple of things: we wanted to do more for Afrikan people in the diasopora. And, we wanted to connect with people in the Afrikan diaspora to [...]

I’ve been reading your blog for only two days. And I’ve been reading blogs like it for only two days. I’m sending this your way because I want you to know the effect your blog has had on me, and because I’d like to hear your thoughts on it, if you have the time. Either [...]

Justice in Jena:
Something beyond petitions and phone calls to corrupt, poli-tricksters is necessary to prevent the racists in Lu’siana from doing what they are in fact, DOING, to our people right now in Jena. Maybe its time for the AfroSpear to be raised in defense of our people and levelled at our enemy. [...]

The article challenges the silence of the United States over the 5 million+ people killed in the Congo, compared to the various voices lifted for the deaths in Darfur. It also discusses imperial and corporate interests guiding ethical concern. Here’s an excerpt. [...]

Religious discourse can be very controversial. Although I am open to share and listen to the religious beliefs of others (or lack thereof), I have never been interested in debating the issue. How can one debate the issue of faith? I find it pointless. I have nothing to prove nor do I want to convert someone to my way of [...]

AFRO STYLIN’
Cruising along cinema’s chitlin’ circuit

I was never a proponent of “Truth and Reconciliation Commissions” in adjudicating crimes, especially crimes involving human rights abuses and atrocities during armed conflicts, such as torture, rape, kidnappings, murder, etc. The idea that a perpetrator of these crimes could just come forward and receive amnesty for telling the truth of their participation in these reprehensible acts [...]

Beginning on Sunday 01 July 2007, the African Union is holding a 3-day summit in Accra, Ghana, where the primary issues of discussion will be the genocide in Darfur (notably absent is the Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir) and African unity. Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has called for a United States of Africa, underscored by the warning that “Africa must [...]
