This is not really an update as its a rant.
I live in a country where racism was law, I spent 4 years fighting in the Angolan war for that very government, brainwashed into believing that we were fighting for the protection of our families, and not the truth, which was a morally bereft government, that had negated 80% of the population.
That being said, South Africa underwent a miraculous change, and even though we are still working through this new nation.
Now to what really pisses me off.
I had the misfortune of turning on the TV, and was subjected to a Kanye West music video about the illegal diamond trade through Africa. We see poor black children working to near death in mines, desperate and destitute with no future as they are held there by brutal warlords. We then cut to a young white couple as her would be fianc asks for her hand in marriage by placing a diamond ring on her hand, it begins to bleed, enveloping her whole arm.
We see white women in jeweler stores converting diamond necklaces, white men in suits looking ominous as though they are wholly responsible for the blood diamond trade.
What gets to me is, where are all his fellow black rappers with all there huge diamond encrusted belt buckles and pendants, with rings so diamond encrusted that they cost more than Liberias annual GDP.
He then goes on to destroy a vintage Gull Wing Mercedes Benz very rare and expensive and the sale of that vehicle could probable have fed an orphanage in Somalia for the next ten years.
One has to begin to wonder what racism is. Is it about any race being discriminated against, or is it what seems to be politically correct at the time. Ive heard a term used Reverse Racism what the fuck is reverse racism? Its racism or its not. Reverse racism is an excuse to be racist, and how long will it be expectable before we realize that the color of your skin is actually the color in your mind, and that you alone determine how you use it.
Well thats my rant.
Kudos to Lillith, its been a long time coming but worth the wait. I love this girl, besides being super hot, shes highly creative and an awesome person.
Thats me all vented out
Till later.
