1962/63 when huge food aid such as assistance associated with USA JFK’s administration, was received. These crises were largely driven by drought and low agricultural productivity. In other words, the country was not food secure even before villagization…

The 1973–74 crisis was primarily caused by severe drought. While relocation policies may have contributed, they were not the root cause. Ignoring the broader trend of food insecurity and downplaying the role of natural disasters, your argument presents a distorted version of

Cuba's President Diaz-Canel: "Are we a threat, or are we a threat by example?"
"When Maduro was kidnapped, those who fought back were Cubans. 32 of them held back a Delta Force unit... despite being massively outnumbered."
"We are in difficult times, yes, but we are also in times that demand definition.
And here, on this island, the courage of a people is defined -- a people that would rather die on their feet than live on their knees."

Walter Rodney was a Guyanese historian, scholar, and political thinker who taught at the University of Dar es Salaam in 1966–67 and again from 1969 to 1974. During his Dar es Salaam years, he became one of the most influential radical intellectuals on the continent, engaging deeply with debates around African liberation, socialism, imperialism, and Tanzania’s ujamaa project...
His time at UDSM was especially important because it was there that he developed much of the thinking that shaped his famous 1972 book, How Europe Underdeveloped Africa, which was also published in Dar es Salaam. Scholars describe UDSM in that period as a major hub of African liberation thought, and Rodney was central to that intellectual atmosphere...
At the university, Rodney was not just an academic in the narrow sense. He was involved in wider political and ideological debates, wrote on Tanzania’s class structure and colonial economy, and influenced students and activists far beyond the campus. His Dar es Salaam years are often treated as the period in which he fully emerged as a leading Pan-Africanist and Marxist scholar-activist...

Walter Rodney, the author of the must-read book “How Europe Underdeveloped Africa”, was assassinated in 1980, at the age of 38 for his authorship in exposing the predatory corporatocracy model of Western development. His account completely upends the mental model we have been sold, which places countries with the least resources and countries with the least morals at the top of the world economic food chain under the guise of a nonexistent mental superiority. Rodney highlights the "scissors" effect of colonial trade, where the price of African raw materials was kept low while the price of European manufactured goods rose. • Example (Groundnuts): He notes that in the 1930s, a farmer in French West Africa had to produce three times more groundnuts to buy the same amount of imported cloth as he did fifteen years earlier. • The Logic: This ensured that African labor remained cheap while European industrial profits soared, creating a cycle of permanent debt and poverty. And this intentional suppression and undervaluation African labour and resources was done through many inhumane practices detailed in yet another must read book “Confession of an economic hitman”. The African enablers of these models are still here today. They encourage the neocolonialist to pillage Africa by enacting the agenda of the west but with a Black skin. And these subservient African leaders are often eloquent but utterly nonsensical, and they are almost all leaders of western approved “democracies” that have overstayed their maximum terms. Peace to Walter Rodney, may his words carry us through the new African liberation.

Mwanangu Magesa alikuwa na shida ya tumbo. Awali aliambiwa ana vidonda vya tumbo.
Kuna nyakati tumbo likimshika alikuwa hawezi hata kutembea.
Siku moja alizidiwa. Tukakimbia hosp.
Niliitwa pembeni Daktari akaniuliza: "Magesa ni nani yako?" Nikamjenga!

My guy Magesa Gamba battled hepatitis B. It was humiliating to see him in a shape of hopelessness and helplessness. Sikuwahi kujua msiba until I frequented ICU for my G. ‘Saini tuzime mashine maana ubongo ushakufa’ was unbelievable! Keep resting in power, my dawg Magesa🤲

American Professor Jeffrey Sachs:
“Every country that condemned Iran after an Israeli-U.S. aggression hosts an American military base on its soil.
They are not sovereign countries.
They dare not speak.
They host the U.S. military.
They host the CIA.
They watch their backs.”
