THANK YOU FOR THIS GREAT ARTICLE PACKED WITH IMPORTANT AND VALUABLE INFORMATION ABOUT MANGOS. MANY TIMES MANGOS ARE SEEN ON THE STREETS OF BARBADOS UNWANTED AS IF SOME FORM OF GARBAGE, MOST RECENTLY. IT IS SAD THAT THE YOUTH HAVE NOT THIS INFORMATION, THEY SHOULD EAT THE MANGO AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE IT IS PART OF WHAT IS GOOD ABOUT BARBADOS. MANGOS IS AN EARTH DAY TOPIC AS EATING THEM WOULD BENEFIT THE ISLAND. WE LOVE MANGOS HERE IN THE STATES. SHOPPING FOR THE BEST ONE IS IMPORTANT. IT HAS A GROWING INTEREST IN THE USA. BARBADOS NEEDS TO LOOK AT THEIR TREASURES AND CAST NOT THEIR PEARLS AWAY. I HOPE YOUR ARTICLE WILL BE A COLUMN THAT BRINGS MORE OF THIS UPSCALE TYPE OF JOURNALISTIC HEALTH AND NUTRITION EDUCATION.

LEAVE THE CARS AT HOME DAY - NATION NEWS HOME
IT WOULD BE BEAUTIFUL FOR BARBADIANS TO HAVE A "LEAVE THE CARS AT HOME DAY" TO TACKLE THE CARBON DIOXIDE EMISSIONS. LEAVING ROADS OPEN FOR THE BARBADIANS TO ENJOY AN OLD FASHION WALK UP DE GULLY, RONG DE GAP, DONG DE HILL, AND ROUND-ABOUT. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL AND BENEFICIAL ACTIVITY FOR BOTH THE AIR QUALITY AND THE CARDIOVASCULAR EXERCISE; RESPIRATORY AND CIRCULATORY SYSTEMS. ALONG WITH THE PLANTING OF MORE TREES THE ISLAND WILL RETAIN IT'S TROPIC QUALITY AND CONTINUE TO DRAW THE ECOSYSTEMS THAT KEEP THE RAIN AND WATER COMING TO THE REGION TO CONTROL POSSIBLE DROUGHT. IN THE USA WE ARE TRYING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. BECAUSE OF THE USE OF ETHANOL GASOLINE THAT WE ARE MAKING FROM THE CORN, WE ARE NOW HAVING TO DEAL WITH WATER SHORTAGES, DUE TO THE USE OF THE WATER QUANTITY NEEDED TO PRODUCE ETHANOL. ONE HAND WASHES THE OTHER IN GREENING OUR GLOBAL NEEDS. TREES BECAUSE OF THEIR CONTENT OF CHLOROPHYLL. AT NIGHT THE HUMAN AND ANIMAL POPULATION IN PART FOR THIS REASON SLEEPS AT NIGHT. ANIMALS THAT SLEEP DURING THE DAY WILL ALSO SLEEP AT NIGHT, ALTHOUGH THEY WILL PROWL AROUND MORE WHICH GIVES THEM TERRITORIAL CONTROL OF THEIR HABITAT SHARED WITH THE ANIMALS THAT ROAM IN THE DAYTIME AND SLEEP AT NIGHT. THESE CREATURES THAT ROAM AT NIGHT ALSO NEED THE TREES TO KEEP THEM QUIET AS THEY ROAM. THE EFFECT TREE EMISSIONS OF NATURAL CARBON DIOXIDE PROCESSED THROUGH THE CHLOROPHYLL MAKES THEM PASSIVE WHILE THEY ARE ALERT AT NIGHT. WE BREATHE THROUGH OUR LUNGS WHICH STORES OXYGEN FROM BOTH THE AIR, WATER AND TREE EMISSIONS, WHICH GETS STORED EVERY TIME WE INHALE TO TAKE IN OUR OXYGEN SUPPLY. AND, WHEN WE EXHALE TO RELEASE OUR CARBON DIOXIDES WE GET AT NIGHT TIME. KEEPING OUR BODIES AS FREE AS POSSIBLE FROM THE BURNT CARBON DIOXIDES FROM GASES WE USE TO PRODUCE MACHINE POWER IS NECESSARY. IT MUST BE ADDRESSED WITH THESE MEASURES. IT'S TOO BAD THAT EARTH DAY IS ONLY ONE DAY OUT OF A YEAR, WHILE IN 365 DAYS WE POLLUTE THE AIR AS MUCH AS WE WANT. ZOOM, ZOOM, ZOOM. CAR POOLING, AT LEAST TO AND FROM WORK WOULD HELP ON A REGULAR BASIS. SO EVERYONE THAT HAS A CAR CAN HAVE IT BUT TAKE TURNS ON THE ROAD CAR POOLING. DON'T LET BARBADOS BECOME COLD AND UNFRIENDLY WITH TOO MUCH ALIENATION OF NEIGHBORS.

WISE TO GOOD IGNORANT TO EVIL - NATION NEWS HOME
NEVER KNEW THIS IS POSSIBLE IN ALL OF THE MORE THAN HALF A CENTURY I AM NEARING. IT GOES TO SHOW HOW WE CAN BE SAVVY WITH TECHNOLOGY, SURF THE INTERNET, READ PRINT MATTER, WATCH TELEVISION, GO TO THE MOVIES, GO TO THE DISCO, THE DANCEHALL, GO TO COLLEGE, MARRY TWICE, HAVE CHILDREN, GO BACK TO COLLEGE, GET THREE COLLEGE DEGREES TOTAL, HAVE GRAND CHILDREN, TEACH FROM NURSERY SCHOOL TO COLLEGE LEVEL AND IN ALL OF THAT TIME STILL NEVER KNEW IT WAS POSSIBLE TO BREAK OR FRACTURE AN ORGAN OR PART OF THE BODY THAT HAS NO BONE IN IT, AND IN FACT IS MADE FROM TISSUE CELLS. MEDICAL TERMS WOULD NOT REFER TO AN ORGAN AS BREAKING. THE TERM RUPTURE IS THE TERM USED FOR APPENDIX OR VESSELS. STILL NEVER HEARD ANYONE SAY IT EVER HAPPENED TO THEM. THERE IS HOPE FOR THE YOUTH OF TODAY. MAYBE THIS IS HAPPENING TODAY BECAUSE THOSE INDULGING IN BAD BEHAVIOR ARE EDUCATED TO EVIL RATHER THAN GOOD, SO THEY CAN ONLY DO WHAT THEY KNOW. EDUCATION IS NOT WISDOM, IT IS NOT INTELLIGENCE. EDUCATION DOES NOT CREATE INTELLIGENCE. THOSE BELIEVING THEMSELVES INTELLIGENT CREATE EDUCATION. AND THAT CAN INCLUDE MIS-EDUCATION. THE WORSE KIND OF ALL.

India is a child of Ethiopia, China is a child of Egypt. Egypt is the name of a person for whom the land Egypt was named. This person then had a child whom they named China for whom the land that is called China is named. In the bible God states that they name lands by their names. Most people who research could add to each other what they have found to delve into deeper converse. The Land Ethiopia is the only land that was named by God apart from the word Earth. Words that began with E symbolized names relevant to God's names for himself. Egypt was a name given to a child, as a child from God in the place then called Egypt by the parents. The Garden of Eden was bordered all around by the lands called Ethiopia. The ball God called the Earth which consisted of water, air and then land which God called Ethiopia. This is the beginning home of humanity. Apart from the lands named after a child or ruler, All other names for lands were relevant to people naming them after a deed done by God to them in the early beginnings of humanity. So these names told a story to them about God had done in that place either of his love, mercy, salvation or wrath and anger. The term Europe has to do with the idea of them being separated and roped off in a colony lands where the people who had been turned white by God stripping them of their color were separated from others in the wilderness days of Moses. These colonies included the people who were called lepers. There are bible statements that Aaron and Miriam was turned white by God. These descendants of Aaron brother of Moses and Miriam represent these people that we know as the Chinese and the Europeans that by nomadic travels came back out of these areas in an effect to return to true civilization in Ethiopia as they knew it. Europe for that reason believes in what they did in dividing up What we know as Africa into so many different Countries and European rulership. Europe always depended on Ethiopia and especially Egypt for food and knowledge. The attempts to rejoin themselves back to Africa is and has been their goal from the point of separation to this present day. The native Americans that could explain this would tell you that man cannot own land and possess land as they wish because every form of life, human kind and animal kind dies an leaves the lands behind. The Earth is before man and is made to out live mankind. The situation is similar to if you wanted to go back to sao tome and possess the land that is called the City of Neves as your own personal property and then dominate every one there and make them speak English and live by your rules. What would happen. One of two things or both. They would be divided loyalty among the inhabitants firstly. Secondly, subjugation and rebellion. If the descendants their no longer recognize you and thrived in your absence, they would not want your rulership if it is unkind. If it is kind they wouldn't understand that you are taking what is there's in their mind, unless they mind is as the Native Americans wisdom of non ownership by reason of man cannot own land as mankind dies and leaves it. We and or generations can only lease this earth or rent it we really can't own it. We can just convince each other that we own anything because of a document says so and we can exchange that for our future generations to lease or rent. Every structure in this earth was lived in or on by someone before us who lived and died there or some other place. (FIYBNY - Itha)

That´s true, ultimately speaking. We are all one race, with the same origin, and this goes back to Adam and Eve. And there are scientists that argue that the original man was from what is now the continent of Asia!
But we all know what we mean when we speak about Africans, Europeans, Asians, Americans, and Australians. We are talking about the generations descended from children of Noah who migrated from the Babel tower region after the Big Flood to different parts of Asia and Africa. The children of Shem occupied basically what is now the Middle East region and parts of northeast Africa. The children of Ham occupied the Land of the Ethiopians, now called Africa (Incidentally, Ethiopian means{people of burnt face}). Asia was occupied by descendants of Jase phat (I may have misspelled this name) and some of them migrated to Europe from India. I studied this in the Bible for a couple of months some nine years ago with the help of a map.
My studies in linguistics (TESOL, among other things, takes a big bite at linguistics, both theoretical and applied) also backs up what is in the scriptures. All European languages come from one single language, the Sanskrit's, a language still spoken by certain religious scholars in India. African languages have roughly three roots, and most of them are Bantu based. Most slaves came to the Americas originally from the Kongo Empire which spoke Bantu languages. Bantu languages are still spoken among black people in Cuba and in northern Brazil. The accent of Bantu languages are prominent among black folks in the Americas and the Caribbean even when they speak European languages, never mind among blacks in Africa even among those who speak Portuguese, French, English. Their identity speaks loud for people to hear. We all belong to the human race, we come with different baggage, shapes and hues. ''Vive la diference!,'' Long live the difference, the French say, but in recent centuries, starting with chattel slavery of blacks in the early 1500's, the difference that characterizes Africans, whether at Africa or in the diaspora, have been belittled and exploited by non-Africans, and I think Africans everywhere must do something to bring back the balance needed as we progress towards the beginning of a new world order.

WE ARE ALL THE OFFSPRING OF THE FATHERLAND AFRICA. WE HAVE BEEN PRODUCTS OF A NOMADIC EXISTENCE THAT LED PEOPLE BY FOOT INTO THESE OTHER REGIONS. THE JOURNEY BACK TO AFRICA THE FATHERLAND IS WHAT LED EUROPEANS AND ASIANS TO RETURN TO AFRICA SEEKING SUSTENANCE FOR SURVIVAL AS CLIMATE CONDITIONS FORCED THEM OUT INTO SEEK THESE NEW WORLD. WE ARE ALL THE ROOT OF AFRICA. THE FACES OF DIFFERENCE ARE JUST ADAPTATIONS TO EACH DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENT AND ITS FOOD SUPPLY AND CLIMATES. (FIYBNY - Itha)

The distortion about Africa began in the 1500's when black slavery began. Slave masters had to hide African reality from slaves born in the plantations, they had to say Africans did not have history, that they spoke ''dialects'' (a misused linguistic term), not languages, had to change their names, and so on. They had to erase everything positive about Africa and leave only negative things.That´s how it all began, and the media have been acting on the stereotypes depicted ever since.
Most of what I said in the article are not my discoveries. They can be easily found on the Internet, bookstores, and African and Black Studies in universities. I intend to use this knowledge as foundation for my literary work and other bocks, and in fact, have already been doing so. There are two kinds of communicators, speakers and writers, and I fall in the category of writers. I definitely write better than I speak, and I know my contribution to Sao Tomé and Principe, to Africa and to the world will be through writing. Others, those who are orators, would take the baton and comment on it in media.
Though you never seemed to understand, you are African, all blacks are, whether they are in Africa or in the diaspora! Except Australians. I don´t have time to repeat the argument, but you are an African woman with an American citizenship, just like I´m an African man with a Santomean citizenship. Citizenship, which black folks in the Americas tend to misunderstand, has nothing to do with being African. Africans are spread all over the planet with all kinds of citizenship, and being African is above citizenship! It´s the job of all Africans to use whatever means their gifts best allow them, to inform the world out there about Africans and the continent that belongs to them. I do this fairly well through writing, the channel I know God has provided me.

What again is sad is that Africa again has media attention and web play on the Internet with scams that are robbing people from little computer offices in Nigeria and places like Ghana this is what now is news. In South Africa they show the teens using the HIV drug atz to get high like heroin and the abuses of it. We have seen how young girls and boys are sold in vans living in the urban towns. It looks like to earlier ghetto pictures and tv film movies about black Americans. THE WORLD THAT IS SEEING THIS UNDERSTAND IT AS THE RESULT OF THE INVASION OF AFRICA. THEY SENSE THAT IT IS CAPTIVITY IN ITS UGLINESS. THE U.S. HAS AREA ALSO WHERE THE DEPRESSION OF THIS LIFESTYLE IS SUFFERED BY WHITES. IT IS NOW BETTER UNDERSTOOD. IF IT HAD NOT BEEN SO MANY OF THESE WHITE DEPRESSED TOWNS WOULD BE KNOWN. THIS SIDE OF WHITE AMERICA IS MORE KNOWN THAN BEFORE BECAUSE THEY NOW KNOW THAT THE POVERTY IS NOT NORMAL THEY ARE GROWING MORE AWARE OF THE REALITY OF HUMAN SUFFERING HAVING LESS AND LESS TO DO WITH REALITY AND MORE TO DO WITH DECEPTIONS GIVEN ABOUT THEMSELVES AND OTHERS. TRUTH ALWAYS RISES OUT OF DESPAIR AND GOD'S LOVE TIES ALL THINGS TOGETHER THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR REDEEMER OUR STRENGTH OUR GUIDE OUR PROTECTOR. GO TO: www.realamericanstories.com
ALL THAT YOU HAVE SAID IS TRUE, IT WILL TAKE AFRICANS SUCH AS YOURSELF TO DO THIS. YOU SHOULDN'T EXPECT THAT IT WILL BE DONE OTHERWISE. THE EGYPTOLOGIST THAT DIED THAT FREQUENTLY APPEARED ON GIL NOBLE'S SHOW LIKE IT IS WAS DEDICATED TO THIS ENDEAVOR, BECAUSE OF HIM WE THAT WERE IN COLLEGE AND IN THE POSITION TO TALK ABOUT IT SHARED THE MESSAGE WITH OTHERS. BECAUSE OF HIS BOLD ATTEMPTS MUCH OF THE VIEWS OF AFRICA CHANGED AND BLACK AMERICANS AND BLACKS ALL OVER THE WORLD EMBRACED THE KNOWLEDGE AND HUNGERED FOR IT. MAKING A DEMAND FOR IT. WHAT HAS HAPPENED IS THAT PEOPLE LIKE YOURSELF HAVE NOT SEEN THE AVENUE YOU COULD HAVE TAKEN TO UTILIZE YOUR VOICE AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONTACT PEOPLE LIKE GIL NOBLE, BLACK ENTERPRISE AND OTHER SHOWS. THEN YOU HAVE TO WRITE THE BOOKS AND RAISE THE MONEY FOR THE RESEARCH. THESE THINGS DON'T HAPPEN BY THEMSELVES THEY TAKE AMBITIOUS DEDICATION AND YOU HAVE THAT ENOUGH TO GET THIS OUT THERE AND YOU STIMULATE READERS ENOUGH THAT THEY HAVE RESPONDED. KEEP WRITING AND RESEARCHING IT WILL PAY OFF WITH THE INTERNET YOU CAN DO THIS. SEND THIS ARTICLE TO GIL NOBLE HE WOULD WELCOME THIS. HE WILL TAKE YOUR CALL AND TALK WITH YOU. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH HIM BY PHONE IN 1999 ABOUT HIS SHOW. WE TALKED ABOUT HIM HAVING HIS SHOW CATALOGED BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T WANT TO KEEP IT ON THE AIR AND THEY DID NOT KEEP HIS TAPED SHOWS, AS IMPORTANT AS IT IS TO OUR AMERICAN HISTORY. THEY DID NOT WANT HIM TO HAVE ANY COPYRIGHT PRIVILEGES. HE IS NOW HAVING MORE PRIVILEGES BECAUSE HE FOUGHT FOR THEM AND HIS SUPPORTERS HAVE MADE THEIR VOICES HEARD. YOU HAVE TO SEE THAT YOU HAVE A LABOUR OF LOVE ON YOUR HANDS AND HAVE BIRTHED THIS KNOWLEDGE THAT YOU SHOULD SHARE. JUST DO IT. (FIYBNY - Itha)

I had seen those comments. They are from other Portuguese speakers, mostly Brazilians, who read my article with great interest and spoke of them in their group discussions. Many of them are discovering their African roots through this article, though I intended it for Santomeans.
Family problems are everywhere in the world, and especially among immigrants, and this seems to have been the case in history from back during the biblical times. They are not only among Africans.
Unfortunately, most views held outside of Africa are tinted with media propaganda and do not match the reality of each country in Africa. The media find one small detail somewhere and magnify and generalize it as an African problem as a whole, while hiding positive things about Africa.
I'd like to see films on African cities (pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial) and not just villages. Village life is important in Africa, but so is urban life, which has always co-existed with the villages. I`m sick and tired of hearing about villages, wild life, drought and war. These things do exist in Africa in certain spots and pockets, but they are not what Africa and Africans are or have been about.
I´d like them to tell the world that the man who invented heart transplant was an African that looked like me, Hamilton Naki, and not a white South African by the name of Christian Barnard. I´d like them to print Banard´s confessions. I´d like them to talk about what African universities are researching on. I´d like them to tell the world that Africans founded the concept of university, and that when London was still a village, students from all over the world went to the cities of Timbuctu, Gao and Jenne to study at our universities, including Sankore University which still exists, with collections of manuscripts talking about things modern science have not yet discovered. I´d like to see the modern city of Abuja, a city built by the government of Nigeria in recent years, which now serve as the capital. I´d to see our factories and their skilled workers and not just some women working the fields in a village. I´d like them to talk about the prosperity of Botswana, the strides Angola is taking now after the end of the 30 year war. I´d like the schools to teach the curriculum I suggested to you.

I plan to do that because we need to have a better view of what Africa and African cultures are about other than dusty looking muddy area, wild animals and voodoo medicine men as shown on most TV even the educational shows tend to show this while the people of Europe and Asia that have money go there and enjoy all of it's diversity. I know it is to keep the black American and other black nationals from going there or feeling connected to them like they do their home lands. If we all went there like we have family there we would spend money there we too would be able to contribute to it directly black folks to black folks, When whites go there they spend money but to their own white owned areas so money is not going to the locals. Some articles I read talk about the prostitution of young African males selling themselves to older white women and men for shirts and outfits and meals. Nothing that can better their long term futures, Then they show how the African chiefs sell off the young girls to any man they feel like and more than one female as many as he can buy. These problem keep Africa with villages full f women and children that may have been sold to tourist and then abandon. Women are not free Men are not free in Africa as long this goes on. Also like President Obama's father having left Kenya to study leaving his wife and children behind then marrying here and leaving his mother to go on and do the same. African has to establish a pro family policy that brings these men and their wife and children with them so that the whole family can be uplifted together as others that travel as a family do in the white race, President Obama never knew his father from age 2 then once at age 10. Many African American children are a product of these student situations.
Pro family foreign policy is necessary to help the children of Africa. Some have fathers abroad that eat and live well with American women while these children and their moms are hungry in Africa. when white men travel they take their wife and children once it is for more than a short week or two. HOW CAN THEY THINK TO TAKE A HUSBAND FROM HIS WIFE AND CHILDREN FOR 4 -8 YEARS WHEN HE IS AFRICAN. WHY, HOW RIGHT. THEN HE CAN STILL MARRY HERE AND HAVE KIDS AND DIVORCE AND NOT HAVE THE BENEFITS THE WHITE MALE HAS TO BE PART OF ANY FAMILY HERE OR ANYWHERE . CHANGE MUST BE MADE. EQUALITY FOR FAMILIES WILL CHANGE THIS IF AFRICANS ARE STOPPED FROM BEING TRICKED INTO GETTING AMERICAN EDUCATIONS THAT DOES NOTHING FOR THEM IN AFRICA. THE FAMILIES OF THE CARIBBEAN PEOPLE HAD TO ENDURE THIS FOR GOD KNOWS ITS BEGINNING AND STILL TODAY, HOWEVER, WE SEND BACK AND ACTUALLY GO BACK AND LIVE THERE AS WELL SO WE HAVE KEPT FAMILY TIES ON SOME LEVEL. IT HURT WHEN I WAS A CHILD NOT HAVING PROPER CONTACT WITH ANY OF MY FAMILY ABROAD UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO GO BACK IN 1969. I MADE ME HAPPY MADE ME LOVE MYSELF AND MY NEW COUNTRY UNITED STATES. I KNEW THAT WE WERE REALLY ALL A FAMILY IN THE UNITED STATES AS WELL AS THE PEOPLE IN THE CARIBBEAN AND AFRICA AND EUROPE.

I wrote it in htt:pp//www.JournalVitrina.com (Petter´s newspaper with Santomean audience in mind, trying to goad my fellow compatriots toward awareness of our great heritage, as some seem to forget. As an expose on Africa, it falls short big time.
For school stuff, I can give you ideas on topics your students can find on the Internet. After reading just some of them your students will be truly educated. Here you go, for starters, they must go to a search machine and enter the following topics:
1. UNIVERSITY OF SANKORE
2. EMPIRE OF CUSH
3. EMPIRE OF NUBIA
4. KINGDOM OF EGYPT
5. KINGDOM OF AXUM (AKSUM)
6. THE GREAT ZIMBABWE AND MONOMOTAPA EMPIRE
7. EMPIRE OF GHANA
8. EMPIRE OF MALI
9. EMPIRE OF SHONGHAI
10. THE KONGO EMPIRE
12. GABAL AL TARIK
13. EMPEROR MANSA MUSA
14. THE CITY OF TIMBUCKTU
15. THE CITY OF ZIMBABWE
16. THE CITY OF MBANZA
17. THE DOGON TRIBE ( they know more aboout stars than NASA)
IF this is taught in schools, racism will disappear. Please give this list to J. I think he´ll have a ball.

The accent of Bantu languages are prominent among black folks in the Americas and the Caribbean even when they speak European languages, never mind among blacks in Africa even among those who speak Portuguese, French, English. Their identity speaks loud for people to hear. We all belong to the human race, we come with different baggage, shapes and hues. ''Vive la diference!,'' Long live the difference, the French say, but in recent centuries, starting with chattel slavery of blacks in the early 1500's, the difference that characterizes Africans, whether at Africa or in the diaspora, have been belittled and exploited by non-Africans, and I think Africans everywhere must do something to bring back the balance needed as we progress towards the beginning of a new world order.

WHAT IS SAD IS THAT MOST PEOPLE HAVE THE RENDITION THAT ONLY BLACK MODERN DAY PEOPLE ARE AFRICANS. MY BELIEF IS THAT WE ARE ALL CHILDREN OF AFRICA, THAT INCLUDES THE PEOPLES OF ASIA AND EUROPE. WE ARE ALL THE OFFSPRING OF THE FATHERLAND AFRICA. WE HAVE BEEN PRODUCTS OF A NOMADIC EXISTENCE THAT LED PEOPLE BY FOOT INTO THESE OTHER REGIONS. THE JOURNEY BACK TO AFRICA THE FATHERLAND IS WHAT LED EUROPEANS AND ASIANS TO RETURN TO AFRICA SEEKING SUSTENANCE FOR SURVIVAL AS CLIMATE CONDITIONS FORCED THEM OUT INTO SEEK THESE NEW WORLD. WE ARE ALL THE ROOT OF AFRICA. THE FACES OF DIFFERENCE ARE JUST ADAPTATIONS TO EACH DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENT AND ITS FOOD SUPPLY AND CLIMATES. (FIYBNY - Itha)

The distortion about Africa began in the 1500's when black slavery began. Slave masters had to hide African reality from slaves born in the plantations, they had to say Africans did not have history, that they spoke ''dialects'' (a misused linguistic term), not languages, had to change their names, and so on. They had to erase everything positive about Africa and leave only negative things.That´s how it all began, and the media have been acting on the stereotypes depicted ever since.
Most of what I said in the article are not my discoveries. They can be easily found on the Internet, bookstores, and African and Black Studies in universities. I intend to use this knowledge as foundation for my literary work and other bocks, and in fact, have already been doing so. There are two kinds of communicators, speakers and writers, and I fall in the category of writers. I definitely write better than I speak, and I know my contribution to Sao Tomé and Principe, to Africa and to the world will be through writing. Others, those who are orators, would take the baton and comment on it in media.
Though you never seemed to understand, you are African, all blacks are, whether they are in Africa or in the diaspora! Except Australians. I don´t have time to repeat the argument, but you are an African woman with an American citizenship, just like I´m an African man with a Santomean citizenship. Citizenship, which black folks in the Americas tend to misunderstand, has nothing to do with being African. Africans are spread all over the planet with all kinds of citizenship, and being African is above citizenship! It´s the job of all Africans to use whatever means their gifts best allow them, to inform the world out there about Africans and the continent that belongs to them. I do this fairly well through writing, the channel I know God has provided me.

What again is sad is that Africa again has media attention and web play on the Internet with scams that are robbing people from little computer offices in Nigeria and places like Ghana this is what now is news. In South Africa they show the teens using the HIV drug atz to get high like heroin and the abuses of it. We have seen how young girls and boys are sold in vans living in the urban towns. It looks like to earlier ghetto pictures and tv film movies about black Americans. THE WORLD THAT IS SEEING THIS UNDERSTAND IT AS THE RESULT OF THE INVASION OF AFRICA. THEY SENSE THAT IT IS CAPTIVITY IN ITS UGLINESS. THE U.S. HAS AREA ALSO WHERE THE DEPRESSION OF THIS LIFESTYLE IS SUFFERED BY WHITES. IT IS NOW BETTER UNDERSTOOD. IF IT HAD NOT BEEN SO MANY OF THESE WHITE DEPRESSED TOWNS WOULD BE KNOWN. THIS SIDE OF WHITE AMERICA IS MORE KNOWN THAN BEFORE BECAUSE THEY NOW KNOW THAT THE POVERTY IS NOT NORMAL THEY ARE GROWING MORE AWARE OF THE REALITY OF HUMAN SUFFERING HAVING LESS AND LESS TO DO WITH REALITY AND MORE TO DO WITH DECEPTIONS GIVEN ABOUT THEMSELVES AND OTHERS. TRUTH ALWAYS RISES OUT OF DESPAIR AND GOD'S LOVE TIES ALL THINGS TOGETHER THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR REDEEMER OUR STRENGTH OUR GUIDE OUR PROTECTOR. GO TO: www.realamericanstories.com
ALL THAT YOU HAVE SAID IS TRUE, IT WILL TAKE AFRICANS SUCH AS YOURSELF TO DO THIS. YOU SHOULDN'T EXPECT THAT IT WILL BE DONE OTHERWISE. THE EGYPTOLOGIST THAT DIED THAT FREQUENTLY APPEARED ON GIL NOBLE'S SHOW LIKE IT IS WAS DEDICATED TO THIS ENDEAVOR, BECAUSE OF HIM WE THAT WERE IN COLLEGE AND IN THE POSITION TO TALK ABOUT IT SHARED THE MESSAGE WITH OTHERS. BECAUSE OF HIS BOLD ATTEMPTS MUCH OF THE VIEWS OF AFRICA CHANGED AND BLACK AMERICANS AND BLACKS ALL OVER THE WORLD EMBRACED THE KNOWLEDGE AND HUNGERED FOR IT. MAKING A DEMAND FOR IT. WHAT HAS HAPPENED IS THAT PEOPLE LIKE YOURSELF HAVE NOT SEEN THE AVENUE YOU COULD HAVE TAKEN TO UTILIZE YOUR VOICE AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONTACT PEOPLE LIKE GIL NOBLE, BLACK ENTERPRISE AND OTHER SHOWS. THEN YOU HAVE TO WRITE THE BOOKS AND RAISE THE MONEY FOR THE RESEARCH. THESE THINGS DON'T HAPPEN BY THEMSELVES THEY TAKE AMBITIOUS DEDICATION AND YOU HAVE THAT ENOUGH TO GET THIS OUT THERE AND YOU STIMULATE READERS ENOUGH THAT THEY HAVE RESPONDED. KEEP WRITING AND RESEARCHING IT WILL PAY OFF WITH THE INTERNET YOU CAN DO THIS. SEND THIS ARTICLE TO GIL NOBLE HE WOULD WELCOME THIS. HE WILL TAKE YOUR CALL AND TALK WITH YOU. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH HIM BY PHONE IN 1999 ABOUT HIS SHOW. WE TALKED ABOUT HIM HAVING HIS SHOW CATALOGED BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T WANT TO KEEP IT ON THE AIR AND THEY DID NOT KEEP HIS TAPED SHOWS, AS IMPORTANT AS IT IS TO OUR AMERICAN HISTORY. THEY DID NOT WANT HIM TO HAVE ANY COPYRIGHT PRIVILEGES. HE IS NOW HAVING MORE PRIVILEGES BECAUSE HE FOUGHT FOR THEM AND HIS SUPPORTERS HAVE MADE THEIR VOICES HEARD. YOU HAVE TO SEE THAT YOU HAVE A LABOUR OF LOVE ON YOUR HANDS AND HAVE BIRTHED THIS KNOWLEDGE THAT YOU SHOULD SHARE. JUST DO IT. (FIYBNY - Itha)

I had seen those comments. They are from other Portuguese speakers, mostly Brazilians, who read my article with great interest and spoke of them in their group discussions. Many of them are discovering their African roots through this article, though I intended it for Santomeans.
Family problems are everywhere in the world, and especially among immigrants, and this seems to have been the case in history from back during the biblical times. They are not only among Africans.
Unfortunately, most views held outside of Africa are tinted with media propaganda and do not match the reality of each country in Africa. The media find one small detail somewhere and magnify and generalize it as an African problem as a whole, while hiding positive things about Africa.
I'd like to see films on African cities (pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial) and not just villages. Village life is important in Africa, but so is urban life, which has always co-existed with the villages. I`m sick and tired of hearing about villages, wild life, drought and war. These things do exist in Africa in certain spots and pockets, but they are not what Africa and Africans are or have been about.
I´d like them to tell the world that the man who invented heart transplant was an African that looked like me, Hamilton Naki, and not a white South African by the name of Christian Barnard. I´d like them to print Banard´s confessions. I´d like them to talk about what African universities are researching on. I´d like them to tell the world that Africans founded the concept of university, and that when London was still a village, students from all over the world went to the cities of Timbuctu, Gao and Jenne to study at our universities, including Sankore University which still exists, with collections of manuscripts talking about things modern science have not yet discovered. I´d like to see the modern city of Abuja, a city built by the government of Nigeria in recent years, which now serve as the capital. I´d to see our factories and their skilled workers and not just some women working the fields in a village. I´d like them to talk about the prosperity of Botswana, the strides Angola is taking now after the end of the 30 year war. I´d like the schools to teach the curriculum I suggested to you.

I plan to do that because we need to have a better view of what Africa and African cultures are about other than dusty looking muddy area, wild animals and voodoo medicine men as shown on most TV even the educational shows tend to show this while the people of Europe and Asia that have money go there and enjoy all of it's diversity. I know it is to keep the black American and other black nationals from going there or feeling connected to them like they do their home lands. If we all went there like we have family there we would spend money there we too would be able to contribute to it directly black folks to black folks, When whites go there they spend money but to their own white owned areas so money is not going to the locals. Some articles I read talk about the prostitution of young African males selling themselves to older white women and men for shirts and outfits and meals. Nothing that can better their long term futures, Then they show how the African chiefs sell off the young girls to any man they feel like and more than one female as many as he can buy. These problem keep Africa with villages full f women and children that may have been sold to tourist and then abandon. Women are not free Men are not free in Africa as long this goes on. Also like President Obama's father having left Kenya to study leaving his wife and children behind then marrying here and leaving his mother to go on and do the same. African has to establish a pro family policy that brings these men and their wife and children with them so that the whole family can be uplifted together as others that travel as a family do in the white race, President Obama never knew his father from age 2 then once at age 10. Many African American children are a product of these student situations.
Pro family foreign policy is necessary to help the children of Africa. Some have fathers abroad that eat and live well with American women while these children and their moms are hungry in Africa. when white men travel they take their wife and children once it is for more than a short week or two. HOW CAN THEY THINK TO TAKE A HUSBAND FROM HIS WIFE AND CHILDREN FOR 4 -8 YEARS WHEN HE IS AFRICAN. WHY, HOW RIGHT. THEN HE CAN STILL MARRY HERE AND HAVE KIDS AND DIVORCE AND NOT HAVE THE BENEFITS THE WHITE MALE HAS TO BE PART OF ANY FAMILY HERE OR ANYWHERE . CHANGE MUST BE MADE. EQUALITY FOR FAMILIES WILL CHANGE THIS IF AFRICANS ARE STOPPED FROM BEING TRICKED INTO GETTING AMERICAN EDUCATIONS THAT DOES NOTHING FOR THEM IN AFRICA. THE FAMILIES OF THE CARIBBEAN PEOPLE HAD TO ENDURE THIS FOR GOD KNOWS ITS BEGINNING AND STILL TODAY, HOWEVER, WE SEND BACK AND ACTUALLY GO BACK AND LIVE THERE AS WELL SO WE HAVE KEPT FAMILY TIES ON SOME LEVEL. IT HURT WHEN I WAS A CHILD NOT HAVING PROPER CONTACT WITH ANY OF MY FAMILY ABROAD UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO GO BACK IN 1969. I MADE ME HAPPY MADE ME LOVE MYSELF AND MY NEW COUNTRY UNITED STATES. I KNEW THAT WE WERE REALLY ALL A FAMILY IN THE UNITED STATES AS WELL AS THE PEOPLE IN THE CARIBBEAN AND AFRICA AND EUROPE.

I wrote it in htt:pp//www.JournalVitrina.com (Petter´s newspaper with Santomean audience in mind, trying to goad my fellow compatriots toward awareness of our great heritage, as some seem to forget. As an expose on Africa, it falls short big time.
For school stuff, I can give you ideas on topics your students can find on the Internet. After reading just some of them your students will be truly educated. Here you go, for starters, they must go to a search machine and enter the following topics:
1. UNIVERSITY OF SANKORE
2. EMPIRE OF CUSH
3. EMPIRE OF NUBIA
4. KINGDOM OF EGYPT
5. KINGDOM OF AXUM (AKSUM)
6. THE GREAT ZIMBABWE AND MONOMOTAPA EMPIRE
7. EMPIRE OF GHANA
8. EMPIRE OF MALI
9. EMPIRE OF SHONGHAI
10. THE KONGO EMPIRE
12. GABAL AL TARIK
13. EMPEROR MANSA MUSA
14. THE CITY OF TIMBUCKTU
15. THE CITY OF ZIMBABWE
16. THE CITY OF MBANZA
17. THE DOGON TRIBE ( they know more aboout stars than NASA)
IF this is taught in schools, racism will disappear. Please give this list to J. I think he´ll have a ball.

I sent you the copy I made for myself, but if you can't open it then you have to go to the orignial site you wrote it on http://www.brazzilbrief.com as I found it on and then order the english translation to get it as I tried to send it. The site is blocked for some reason I can't understand, so try the site you wrote it on. It sounds like a good expose on Africa so I would add it to the homeschool courses for social studies I am trying to put together to view on the internet.

BODILY HARM MISUSE AND ABUSE OF SELF
NEVER HEARD OF ANY SUCH THING AS THIS HAPPENING TO MALES. EVEN WHEN THEY ARE INJURED BY A KICK TO THE GROIN. MANY DECADES AGO THE TERM DAGGER WAS USED TO REPRESENT MALE TO MALE ACTS. MEN THAT WERE CALLED "A BULL DAGGER" MEANT THE MALE GIVING TO THE OTHER MALE: THEM DOING BOTTOMOLOGY, BUT NEVER ASSOCIATED WITH BREAKING THEIR Ps. This article lacks substance as to other possibilities that could have to do with attempted unlawful force upon an unwilling partner. This must be frightening for young males that have not yet experienced a female, the way everyone here is writing as though they know what the true scenario of how these people broke their Ps. THE MISUSE OF DRUGS LIKE STERIODS OR VIAGRA MAY BE INVOLVED,NO PERSON CAN KNOW WHAT DOCTORS ARE NOT TOLD BY PATIENTS. THIS ARTICLE IS DISTURBING IF IT DOES DAMAGE TO THE MINDS OF THE YOUNG MALE AND FEMALE PURE OF SEXUAL EXPERIENCE. MORE REPONSIBLE JOURNALISM WITH LESS INNUENDO AND JESTURING THAT IS INCONVENIENT WOULD BE HELPFUL. MISUSE OR ABUSE OF ONE'S BODY OR PARTNERS BODY HAS ALWAYS BEEN BAD. THE ORGANS ARE NOT TO BE USED A WEAPON, IF USED AS IT IS INTENDED IT BRINGS PLEASURE. YOUNG MINDS NEED TO BE SHAPED WITH SEEKING KNOWLEDGE AND GETTING UNDERSTANDING BIBLICALLY AS WELL AS THE WORLDLY KIND THRUST UPON ALL. www.nationnews.com response to article

RE: BEEN THERE. Your statement is creative, however the fallacy in all such situations. The road called WHITNEY and the Blvd called TINA actually are the same. TINA AND IKE like WHITNEY AND B.B(Brown). both had years of marital blum/bliss, way before the divorce Avenue. NEITHER WHITNEY OR TINA PATHS, RIHANNA NEED TAKE. Don't believe ALL press. There is no proof or pictures to show RIHANNA and CHRIS reconciled. Publicist write things to get public opinion. To direct damage control. The fifth Amendment of the U.S. allow people to plead the 5th which is "REFUSE TO COMMENT.... Sound legal advice for CHRIS BROWN. VICTIMS AND WITNESSES, NOT TO GIVE STATEMENTS, OBSTRUCT FAIR TRIAL PROCESS, WAGE BATTLE. THE STATE BRINGS THE CASE. VICTIMS DO NOT. CHRIS BROWN GAVE STATEMENT THROUGH HIS PUBLICIST. BACK UP OFF OF RIHANNA WHILE SHE IS IN BARBADOS. SHE DOESN'T HAVE TO MAKE ANYBODY LOOK GOOD. WE ARE ALL RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT WE DO THAT MAKES US LOOK GOOD. BAJANS, AMERICANS OR OTHERWISE.

LIME IS GOOD
It is a refreshing skin astringent, if feels good on the face with a tingling sensation that helps bring healing to acne. It has a natural oil base that works with the acidity of its nutrient vitamin C. It can also work like an antiseptic. It is also a big seller in soda drinks such as SPRITE by Coke and 7UP by Pepsi. These are good for the people who can't drink coke or Pepsi when it affects their acne. I love lime it is a medicinal healthy fruit it belongs on your grocery shopping list. BE BEAUTIFUL BE IN THE LIME LIGHT.
