Realism
Read more books. Read to escape reality. Read to understand reality. Read to challenge what you believe. Read to think better. Read to write better. Read to argue better. Read to know yourself. Read to build something. A single book can completely rewire your brain.

PLEASE let us raise children who believe that painting, poetry, dancing, storytelling and dreaming are essential parts of being human.

In 1968, CBS aired a documentary called Black History: Lost, Stolen or Strayed. One segment showed something uncomfortable: side-by-side comparisons of famous European artists and the African sculptures they copied. Paul Klee. Picasso. Modigliani. One after another. The African artists? Unnamed. Uncredited. Called "primitive." The European copies? Displayed in museums. Taught in schools. Called genius. Bill Cosby said it plainly: "When you look at this copying, you gotta give us a little more than rhythm. You gotta give us style."

Moshabi is not alone. He feels the solidarity and love of his people. In the end, he will have the last laugh on his conviction & sentence. No matter how long & turbulent the journey will be, he will have the last word on this case. Strength to him and the mighty fighters!

Dating nowadays is a joke. You have to act like you don't care, wait hours to reply, pretend you're not too interested just so they don't think you're too available. God forbid you actually like someone and show it. It's not love anymore, it's all mind game.

“Money is like water in the sea. People work for money, den dem don’t want to split it. It’s that kind of attitude. So much guys have so much – too much – while so many have nothing at all. We don’t feel like that is right, because it don’t take a guy a hundred million dollars to keep him satisfied. Everybody haffi live.” #bobmarley 📷 by Johnnie Black ©️ Fifty-Six Hope Road Music Ltd.
