Continued……Malema (@julius.malema.sello on IG, @julius_s_malema on X), president of the Pan-African political party, Economic Freedom Fighters (@effsouthafrica), argued that the Trump administration’s outrage over alleged ‘racial discrimination’ against white settlers and the unfounded claim of ‘white g*nocide’ in South Africa has little to do with the land expropriation law. He said these claims obscure that the US has been lobbying and threatening on behalf of its ally, Israel, over South Africa’s case claiming Israel violated the UN G*nocide Convention in Gaza.

The US has bankrolled $22.7 billion for Israel’s onslaught of Palestinians since 7 October 2023. According to the Lancet medical journal, Israel had k*lled as many as 186,000 people by early July 2024.

RACIAL DISCRIMINATION AT KENYA’S COASTAL RESORTS

Kenyan beach resorts are accused of turning away locals while rolling out the red carpet for White tourists.

Stories of Kenyans being denied access - whether to beachfronts, hotel premises or even certain services - have fuelled debates about racism, neocolonialism and economic discrimination in the very country they call home.

While tourism remains a vital pillar of Kenya’s economy, this exclusion raises uncomfortable questions about whose pleasure and presence truly matters. Shouldn’t Kenyans have the same right to enjoy their own coastline and amenities as the foreigners whose dollars are so eagerly welcomed?

Collaboration and unity can defeat even those considered more dominant. In today’s world, the West, through exploitative and predatory means, has created the illusion that it’s stronger than the rest of the world: that it’s a ‘lion.’ Yet the reality is that the West’s strength only derives from those it relentlessly exploits

This week’s proverb (from Ethiopia) is a reminder of Africa’s might when its nations work together, especially in the face of imperialism. Even if imperialism were a lion - but we know better - a web made by ‘mere spiders’ could still stop it in its tracks.

That’s a truth that has been demonstrated by Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso. The trio expelled French troops and tore up exploitative mining contracts with the West, joined forces and created the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) - a defence and economic bloc aimed at creating a single pan-African federation.

Continued……Western attempts to occupy Sahelian countries to provide ‘security’ did not help as t*rrorism-related deaths have only soared since 2011. Further, a lack of trust in France, which formerly colonised much of West Africa, and statements by former French officials and an intelligence officer hint at France trying to return to the Sahel in some form, whether through official military occupations or destabilisation.

Take a look at this carousel and let us know what you think of the t*rrorism crisis in Africa’s Sahel region, where the people overthrew Western-aligned leaders in recent years in response to t*rror threats and colonial-imposed poverty.
