What is it about the last Url that makes my locs rize?
I am featuring Ghana today because the country is closet to my roots and as stable as most?
To all from DC? What does this remind u of? LOL
Ghana Is In Search Of Banks With Excellent Records
President John Evans Atta Mills on Tuesday invited banks with excellent track records and experience to assist in the development of Ghana's oil industry.
WHAT! gridlock?
Classes end next week , and my sons and i have decided about a year ago to launch upon a business trip to Africa..There are lots of OPS and we all want to go to Ithiopia because one of my daughters in laws is from the country and i have yet to visit. Plus the fact that before its over every knee shall bend and every head will bow to Ithiopia
My son , her husband has been there done that, lived there yet admittedly is not a fan .Although he admits that there are quite a few possibilities..We shall see.
My second oldest is a also making plans and he wants to go to West Africa and the Cape coast in general, because like myself he likes to invest.
We have also researched SA, SWA Africa ,Angola, and East Africa, all of which suffice at this time.
There is so much OP in the mother land, and there is no desire not to step out on faith..."THERE IS NO FEAR" simply caution.
In the spirit of Marcus Garvey
A few yrs back we all (my sons,living in the US thier wives, children etc) returned to Cuba, some as teachers, med personnel and lookers(me) Of course we all had to return stateside to do our thing periodically etc and return..But that was only made easier when Pres opened the doors (2009) so that Cuban cits could come and go as we please as well as send remittances as needed and as we prefer to.
. So now my sec oldest son is the only child there and he is a Doctor who traveled with me to Haiti.
Like my fam tells me. This ability to travel back and forth is also one reason we as a fam have not kicked Senor reisa (smiley) to the curb forever. What the Pres has done, is allowed Kubans, like those in my family to more easily support those left behind, and return in emerg if needed.Our father on the other hand..is not impressed, never was from day one and now he is done. He shares what he believes are enormous flaws in Obama as a leader..And which i will not share here..All of those who are not pinned to the sports media already overstand.
My father is and always has been a freedom fighter, and i now realize where i acquired my sometimes off color ability to see both sides. We agree that Obama has inherited this mess, and we agree that he obviously wanted this mess..What we do not agree on is what needs to be done..I prefer to keep this MESS in his face..My father ?
In all of this we have an elder ( My Father) who is in his 80's, and lately feeling his numbers. We have traveled to Africa with him, on two occassions seeking to renew family ties that he and my uncles left behind in Angola. SA and Namibia. My father and i also have traveled back to Kuba together, at least 8 times since the door was opened last May
Now, as the shadows of his life appear he has always been staunchly African with roots from Nigeria to SA..However, Angola is where he has chosen for us to return his remains to the elders...He wants no connection to dirt but rather his ashes spread towards back towards Kuba, which we all agree
The Urls above tells all of us that Ghana like many other places has become a Capitalistic society and that there is a threat to the bus as usual phenom? We already know the dynamics we are not fooled and we DO expect a little amerikkka.
Suffice that, my sons family etc thankfully have not allowed this to dismiss thier hopes/goals, NOR MINE because i know that after what we as a family, including our people as a whole, world wide have suffered., another run for the freedom we deserve as a people and family can/MUST ou tdo any blows we have not already experienced.
We will take this entire rest of the yr and spend it together as a family, stepping out on faith and wherever the ancestors and the spirits drop us..that is where we will elevate the tent. The time is now not 2012
