In African schools, Africans are not being taught about the Berlin conference and the effect of Colonialism in Africa. Leopold II once said “I do not want to miss a chance of getting a slice of this magnificent African cake” After Leopold acquired Congo as a private property…
"We're in a moment of retrenchment, in which we're seeing hard won civil rights being undermined + rolled back. We're seeing an attempt to push back against a multiracial democracy and the show of solidarity demonstrated in the summer of 2020." - @JG4Justice #FreedomSummer2024

@darthhawk82 You sound foolish. A’ja Wilson is a two-time MVP with two championships and just became the highest paid player in the WNBA Caitlin Clark came out of the NCAA with zero championships and zero MVPs, accomplished less than each of these women.
Everyone is outraged that the WNBA’s 2024 number one draft pick, Caitlyn Clark, has a rookie contract that starts at $76,535. Where was this discussion and all this outrage when these Black women, all number one draft picks in the 5 years preceding Clark, were paid even less?…

So forgiving PPP loans is capitalism — but forgiving student loans is socialism?
My husband has dementia. He thinks I’m cheating on him. I go to work everyday and come home. I’m 67, I’ve had one man for 40 yrs I certainly don’t want another. The problem is he’s becoming violent. I don’t know what to do. He used to get better , not anymore.
