Welcome to @Cornell's Arts quad, the most dangerous place on earth housing the most dangerous student protestors in the whole world. So much so the administration (keeper of peace has suspended four of the most dangerous. Jokes aside, happy to see this solidarity of conscience.
1982: Student leader Mwandawiro Mghanga being led from the courts after being charged for sedition “against the lawfully elected government” of President Daniel Arap Moi.
The arrest of students for calling for a ceasefire in Gaza and saying not in their name reminds me of how the Moi dictatorship in Kenya arrested, tortured and jailed 'protesting' students. Mwandawiro, a student leader (1985) looks so young, like our students being arrested today.
We mourn the loss of Benna Buluma 'Mama Victor'. Benna was a courageous and tireless fighter against extra -judicial executions by the Kenyan police, having lost two sons to police killings.Her work with mothers of victims was exceptional. Rest in Power Comrade!
Saddened to learn of the death of Comrade Zarina Patel. Zarina's activism and contribution to the struggle was immense. She edited the AwaaZ magazine and organized the SAMOOSA festival and authored many important books. Rest in Power Comrade!
The lowest moment for me in academia is when I was a PHD student at UW-Madison post the 9-11-2001 terror attacks in the US. Muslim students would get pulled out of the classroom for 'processing' in Milwaukee. And my professors would continue teaching as if nothing had happened.
Universities, these bastions of higher learning, should not punish students for speaking out and ruin their futures. Across ideologies the one thing we should not do is teach our students the fear of speaking. But this is where we are in US politics. nytimes.com/2024/04/20/nyr…
Things are getting stranger by the minute. Whoever hacked my WhatsApp number is sending all my contacts messages using Artuz Sheva Israel News as my profile pic. If you are getting messages from me via whataspp from 203 822 4642, it is not me, anymore : ) I now have a new number.
My WhatsApp has been hacked - I cannot even access it. I am not sure why. But no, I am not going around asking for money. Though you can of course send the money to the right account (DM me for the right account number :). A friend (real) of mine send me this.

I can see you are a very, very extra triple serious African Christian from your timeline. Ask yourself, what would Jesus Christ do? What would he tweet? But no, no, no- you, you young man, you want to keep peddling your wares in the den of thieves. Thanks for the morning laugh :)

Ah, the Achebe/Ngugi whisperer is back. You gave me the gift of laughter this morning. For my sake, can you kindly limit your jokes to one per day? "Lifting him with disrespect" quite frankly would have been funnier tomorrow. But hey, they are your jokes. Wield them as you will.

Sir, you like proverbs and as per your bio you work as a social justice advocate. Here is one for free- He who takes off his social justice hat at home also takes it off at work. Sir, do you prefer a riddle? What wears an expensive social justice blazer in public but not at home?

Since you are sounding all biblical, I sayeth this: Lo and Behold! May our good lord smite unto you at least one woe a day, and may he forgive you and give you rest and peace after the 7th woe :) Thanks for the morning laugh.

We, Africans and black people in general need an "extended awareness' about global blackness and how we have struggled back. In 2019 I gave a talk on Africans and Black Americans in my hometown, Limuru at St. Paul's University. It is a beautiful history. youtube.com/watch?v=ZU048W…
In April of 1994, the Rwandan genocide and 1 million dead. A month later Mandela became the first president of a somewhat free South Africa. For historical context best movie to watch re: Rwanda is Idris Elba's 2005 Sometimes in April not Hotel Rwanda. youtube.com/watch?v=icjvQ7…
