Until we stop FRAMING many of what FUNDAMENTALLY ail us locally, nationally, and internationally in terms of THE OPPRESSED and THE OPPRESSORS, we will hardly ever amount anything DEVELOPMENTALLY or ECONOMICALLY. We may forever play defense or victimhood (a self-piteous route that yields nothing fundamentally constructive). Up our political games: we live in the times of technology-based high stake politics — no more just checkers, ONLY mama and papa CHESS uniquely and SIMULTANEOUSLY grounded in our local, national, and international cultures can save us now— NOT GLOBALISM. 

Note that a culture can be international without being globalistic. GLOBALISM AIN’T = being INTERNATIONAL. My “aburos” and “sisters” of the known world, you have nothing to lose but your chronic dependency complex (aka inferiority complex). Turn the so-called “impostor syndrome” upside down. I await your arrows ….

Just a thought or two:

Pope Francis is ill , the whole world is praying for him and it seems like it’s now gone beyond wishing him a speedy recovery; with all the recent blitz about Black Jesus , maybe the time will soon be ripe  and and the next time the conclave have their summit, when the white smoke curls out of the chimney at the Vatican, it will be a Black Pope…


A Black Pope? Yes, Dr Oohay must admit that would be something  👍


Another Maybe:


Maybe Trump is making certain concessions to Putin with the tacit understanding that when he moves to seize the mineral resources in Greenland, the Russian part of  the China-Russia  Alliance won’t oppose his own little military operation…
