Quote by Alexandra Ripley

“And she understood. She would have done the same. She understood, too, why she'd been wrong to offer Ballyhara as a substitute for land he'd farmed all his life. It made all his work meaningless, and the work of his sons, his brothers, his father, his father's father.”

“If we can stop undermining ourselves as Africans and start valuing who are and what we have. We must stop it ,with the mental of thinking that people who speaks their native tongue. Who following their tradition, practices their culture and value their heritage . Don’t know things, are lame, boring, retards, not interesting, not modern, not clued up and not Important enough. Thinking that they are behind, slow, old fashion and school, because they don’t know western or they don’t know the things we know or following up with trends ,fashion and western as we do. Invest In yourself by embracing who you are.”

“Our biggest oppressor is our mind. There results of it are seen on black on black hate . Look how black people treat other black people when they have power or in higher positions . Look at how poor black look at those successful black people. They wish and pray for their downfall. They want to destroy everything good they have. We are a jealousy nation. The jealousy we have for each other is what started witchcraft in the olden days. Today we still using witchcraft in a modern way by using technology , internet and Social media instead of using traditional herbs. We use technology , internet and Social media to kill each other and to destroy one another. To bully and humiliate one another. Until we change our mentality. We will forever be slaved by poverty. We will forever be slaved by our mind and thinking even thou constitutionally we are free.”
