Who will Succeed Mandela?

Mandela is a lion of Africa. Who are the lions now? Mugabe, Kagame, Kikwete? Who? Leave your thoughts in the common box.

Goodbye Mandela

It is coincidental that this blog started with a post related to Mandela. Who knew that he would be gone today? He had an amazing spirit that sacrificed everything even when hope was bleak. A lot of work still remains to be done in South Africa and other African countries. Mandela has paved the way. Who will follow?

Tribute to Nyerere

Not as many people may know Nyerere as those who know Mandela or Iddi Amin. Nevertheless, although his fame outside Tanzania or Africa is not big and a movie hasn't been made about him yet...there is no denying that he was the epitome of local and global leader. The seeds of love and peace that he planted in Tanzania and across the world will forever spread and grow.

In Memory of Nyerere's 14th Death Anniversary on 14th October 1999.

Welcome everybody!

Welcome!!!Hello everyone, I would like to welcome you to this new blog which will be sharing quotes, lyrics, jokes, and much more!

Nelson Mandela once said, "For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others." What does this quote make you think about? It makes me realize that a lot of things in life are so interconnected whether they are bad or good. If Mandela realized his personal freedom was not everything it means he realized that he was just a part of the bigger picture of freedom. So in whatever you do today whether you are a college student, writer, waitress or chef remember you are just a part of a larger goal. Basically let us be less selfish today.That’s all for today…next time!
