BBC! Explain yourself!!

2009-01-25T22:25:57+00:00

The BBC, throughout the years, have managed to maintain high quality and impartiality and as a result has world wide recognitions as a worthy news source. However, the conflict in Gaza has seemed to show to people a side of the BBC that many didn't think they had...

Well, she ain't Imani Coppola any more. She goes by Little Jackie now, and back in September she did a gig in Hollywood...

Ghanaian Elections

"What was that? Elections happened in Africa? No fighting? No commotion? Democratic you say? In Africa? When?"

Yes, indeed. The changeover was last week, and there was hardly any coverage in Western mainstream media...

Winter in Japan

2009-01-14T18:22:02+00:00

"How many seasons does your country have?" was a question I would often be asked by the Japanese people I would meet, while I was in Japan. "Well...em...four, like every other damn country in the world!" I would answer. I would never say the last part, but I would always think it. And now I've lived in a few more countries, I have come to realise that it was extremely ignorant of me to do so. Spring, summer, autumn (Fall for you Americans out there) and winter had their very distinct climates and winter turned out to be one of my favourites...

Black Boy - Richard Wright

2009-01-12T00:27:04+00:00

"At the age of twelve, before I had had one full year of formal schooling, I had a conception of life that no experience would ever erase, a predilection for what was real that no argument could ever gainsay, a sense of the world that was mine and mine alone, a notion as to what life meant that no education could ever alter, a conviction that the meaning of living came only when one was struggling to wring a meaning out of meaningless suffering." - Richard Wright, Black Boy

Mr Angry Black Man

2009-01-11T19:54:31+00:00

I was at an after church service pot luck. I had just dished my food and was looking for a place to sit. There weren't many seats left, and I didn't want to look like the poor helpless visitor waiting for someone to seat me, so I chose the most inviting seat I could find near the front of the hall. The table seemed to sit a group of very inviting people of various ages, so I thought it was a good choice. So I thought...until I sat down to find out that the gentleman to my right - who actually wasn't very gentle - had an agenda, an issue, a bone to pick, a chip on his shoulder, all of the above and much much more, and to the discomfort of the two white ladies sitting by him, and indeed the rest of the table, he had chosen this very day, this very moment at the lunch table, to express himself. His topic was race, and he didn't see fit to sugar coat his words...

The Stoning of Soraya M.

On Tuesday 9th, I went to see the preview of this movie. Although the title of the movie gave an idea of the gist of the movie, there was no warning whatsoever, how much focus it would indeed take...
