Dear parents, Don't wait until your child is beaten in school before you act. Every word or gesture that dehumanizes your child or undermines her personal dignity should draw a swift, decisive response from you. We don't seem to understand how important self-worth is to a child.

Tunde Onakoya is an outlier, the real story here is that we need to institutionalize kindness, and we can’t do it by relying on Tunde. This is the job of the ministry of Education. Our children are intelligent, we just have an insidious government robbing them of their future.

From an IDP camp in Adamawa to winning a silver medal in America at the Chess and Community Conference in Athens, Georgia, all in just six months. A true testament to resilience. Thank you @Tunde_OD , your own no go spoil.

Cerebral palsy. Mocked as an imbecile and bullied by other children in Makoko. Found Chess. Fought for his place in the world. Now he’s in America teaching USCF rated players lessons on the chess board. This is what dreams are made of❤️

Meet the man, Professor Felix Oragwu. A forgotten genius. Imagine achieving something so groundbreaking that the world catches up 56 years later, yet your name is barely mentioned. That is the story of Professor Felix Oragwu, a brilliant mind who led Biafra’s Research and Production (RAP) team during the war. At the height of the conflict, while resources were scarce, he and his team developed the famous Ogbunigwe bomb and did something almost unthinkable—they successfully processed palm oil to power a jet airplane. A war-torn nation, cut off from the world, had managed to turn a local resource into aviation fuel! Yet, after the war, his incredible innovations were buried and forgotten. Fast forward to today, Indonesia is celebrating the same breakthrough—powering an aircraft with palm oil, something Oragwu and his team had already done more than five decades ago. On March 22, 2025 this remarkable man turned 91 years old. It’s not just a birthday; it’s a moment to reflect on the brilliance, resilience, and lost potential of a generation that was ahead of its time. Professor Oragwu, we celebrate you! May history finally give you the recognition you deserve?

That’s the sickness no one wants to name. But we’ve all seen it. The colonizer doesn’t just take your land. That’s the easy part. The real conquest happens in the mind. When they make you ashamed of your name. When they teach you your ancestors were backward, your language unrefined, your skin unworthy. Then they offer you escape—not through freedom, but imitation. Dress like them. Think like them. Worship their gods, their money, their weapons, their way. Until one day, you look in the mirror and see a stranger staring back. That’s not progress. That’s erasure. We in Vietnam know this well. We watched the French try to cut our tongue from our mouths and replace it with theirs. We saw Americans drop bombs, then drop English textbooks, as if grammar could erase craters. And even now, we see our own kin mock their heritage while praising the very nations that tried to destroy it. That is the deepest form of exile: To feel foreign in your own skin. I’m Vietnamese. And I do not apologize for that. I stand with China not because I forget history. But because I remember who rewrote it. I remember who turned us against each other so they could sit atop both our ruins. I remember who taught us that "modern" meant white, and "civilized" meant obedient. And I remember this: We are not weak for loving our roots. They are weak for needing us to forget them. You cannot erase 4,000 years with a TV show. You cannot overwrite blood memory with war propaganda and glossy white savior dreams. And you cannot sever the spirit of a civilization by dangling Western approval. Because that spirit is older than empire. And it doesn’t die quietly. It whispers in every Vietnamese, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Filipino, Indonesian, Thai, Lao, Cambodian, Indian, Arab, Persian, African, and Indigenous soul who ever felt "less than" in someone else's world. It says: Remember who you are. Not who they told you to be. Remember that Confucius walked long before Kant. That Lao Tzu shaped thought long before Freud. That Vietnamese peasants defeated empires while barefoot. That Chinese resistance broke invaders under mountains of silence and steel. You do not need to be adjacent to anything. You are the center of your own story. The tragedy isn’t that some of us forgot. It’s that the forgetting was designed. But the return? That part is ours. And it’s already begun. We’re waking up. We’re remembering. We are not off-brand Westerners. We are not cultural knockoffs. We are civilizations.

Dear Sony, You have described to a T the phenomenon of MENTAL COLONIZATION of Chinese by Japanese colonialists, Americans, and "Taiwanese, not Chinese" Quislings. Pathetic Weeaboos, indoctrinated into hating their own heritage, yearning for Japanese and White adjacency. .

and this, ladies and gentlemen, is why you must continue to criticize your elected servants
This afternoon, we commenced the cleaning of McGregor Channel in Obalende as part of our ongoing efforts to ensure a flood-free Lagos. Keeping our drainage channels clear is crucial as we prepare for the rainy season. A clean and efficient drainage system protects lives, property, and infrastructure. I urge all residents to desist from indiscriminate waste disposal and take ownership of their environment. A cleaner Lagos is a collective responsibility! #CleanerLagos

I'm open to all kinds of debate, but not debates on whether Africans are "inferior to the rest of humanity". Frederick Douglass, W.E.B. DuBois, Booker T. Washington, Marcus Garvey, and Robert Nesta Marley - did not live, so I can waste my time in 2025, entertaining your coonery.

Dog, what we won was the one thing your empire feared most: The right to decide for ourselves. You speak like a servant, trained to believe that sovereignty is meaningless unless it wears your master’s clothes. You look at Vietnam, see trade and growth, and think: "Ah, they became one of us." But we didn’t. We didn’t fight to be Communist. We didn’t fight to be Capitalist. We fought to be Vietnamese. We fought so no foreign soldier, diplomat, or banker could dictate our future again. That’s what your kind will never understand. Because you’ve never had to crawl through the mud just to be left alone. Because your history is one of taking, not defending. Of projecting power, not resisting it. You say "Vietnam became capitalist" like it’s some final triumph of America. But let me ask you: Did we sign that decision in a treaty at Camp David? Did we surrender our flag and let your Wall Street viceroys take over? No. We walked through fire, buried our children, stood over your defeated war machine, and rebuilt from the ashes. We entered the global market on our feet—not on our knees. You mistake strategy for surrender. Adaptation for assimilation. You think buying and selling means we were bought and sold. But we were never your colony. We never flew your flag. We never begged your mercy. We beat you. And when you left, it wasn’t because we "saw the light" of capitalism. It was because your empire failed to break us. And once we stood free, we decided for ourselves how to live. That’s the difference. You invade to control. We fought to choose. And we did. So no—Vietnam didn’t become what you wanted. Vietnam became what we earned. Sovereign. Independent. Unapologetically our own. Now tell me, Dog: Which one of us still needs to serve someone else’s idea of victory? Because from where I’m standing, you sound like a man trying to justify a leash.

What exactly did Vietnam win? Thea right to be Communists? They have been moving closer to capitalism every year and doing well because of it. So all those people died just for Vietnam to eventually turn into a capitalist country anyway? If the goal of the US was to make Vietnam a Capitalist country, then the goal has been reached.

If Nigerians believe they are "inferior", then they become inferior. I live in Nigeria, among Nigerians, and I can tell you for a fact, that instead of doing the hard work of facing their challenges squarely - they will internalize inferiority.
Replying to @cchukudebelu
Colonial conditioning is part of it, but Nigeria is in a vicious cycle of rampant poverty, corruption and civil unrest. How can this not affect people’s self image? But It doesn’t make Nigerians inferior. Far from it, you almost have to be a super human to cope in such a society
