“Located at 6° 17′ 57″ N, 10° 47′ 41″ W, on the Atlantic coast near Cape Mesurado, The city and outlying districts are administered by the Monrovia City Corporation. Monrovia is Liberia’s capitol city and has a population of over a million people. According to the 2008 census Monrovia had a population of 1,010,970. A total of 29% of the total population of Liberia lives in Monrovia, making it the country's most populous city. In mid-1950, when President Tubman’s administration governed the country, it had 250,000 people or an estimated quarter of that number. At that earlier time the minority group of Afro-Americans controlled Liberia but the indigenous tribes having the he majority of the population had very little say in the running of the country. More recently, because of interracial marriages between ethnic Liberians and Lebanese nationals a significant mixed-race population has developed. Because most of these people are merchants they primarily lived in Monrovia. During the civil wars and the ensuing unrest, most American Liberians fled to the United States and other countries. After the restructuring of the Liberian government very few returned to Liberia creating an educational deficit or brain-drain. More recently some are returning to Liberia but not without problems. The primary fear is that they will bring back money earned overseas and will be in a position to recapture economic power and eventually the government.”

“Lock-n-Key (The Sonnet)
I am the lock,
You are the key.
Sight of your smile,
showers me with glee.
I got no need for church-n-mosque,
Got no need for God or Jehovah.
These are for those seeking security,
Upon love's face unfolds my Mecca.
Yesterday I was a sensible infant,
I studied scripture seeking holiness.
Today I am a grownass nutter,
Only godly gift is love's holy mess.
Bibles are expendable,
Altars are expendable.
Till love takes preference,
God itself is expendable.”

the sake of politeness. I start coughing immediately. At that moment,

she slides her hand beneath the hem of his silly, ruffly shirt.”

“Locke had illegitimately selected those parts of man he needed for his social contract and suppressed all the rest, a theoretically unsatisfactory procedure and a practically costly one. The bourgeois is the measure of the price paid, he who most of all cannot afford to look to his real self, who denies the existence of the thinly boarded-over basement in him, who is most made over for the purposes of a society that does not even promise him perfection or salvation but merely buys him off.”
Source: Closing of the American Mind
“Locke’s distinction between primary qualities of the thing, which he described as solidity, extension, figure, motion or rest, and number, are not primary qualities of the essence of the Ultimate Being as it is but, at best, can only be, conditionally speaking, primary qualities of the manifestation of the Being in things, in plurality. As such, the distinction between the primary and secondary qualities is not between the essence and appearance (reality and appearance) but between the different modes (levels, properties) of appearances.”
