Nigeria is NOT an Islamic nation. It is a nation where you are free to be a Muslim. Nigeria will NEVER be a Muslim country!

The ones who brainwashed you that “Zubimendi” and “Ostapenko” is a better sounding name than “Ogunmola” and “Ologbosere” are the ones who told our women that they shouldn’t be proud of their natural hair but instead use attachments to look “beautiful” in long hairs.

In the last two centuries, the currency of politics is that it promises to destroy the old and build a better one in its place. Not even the conservative of political parties vowed to keep things as they were. Today, the main promise of rulers is to safeguard the traditional order or to go back to some lost “golden age.”

A world my generation never got to experience. Our country declined so much in just a few decades, and it’s utterly radicalizing.

The Instagram aesthetic that has been pushed onto Black women has taken us further away from real representation in media, from how many of our sisters genuinely show up in the world. And the truth is, that authenticity is more than enough. You do not need all that manipulation, and Coco definitely does not need it in this campaign. She’s beautiful. Coco's hair doesn't need more tension, pulling or styling. Her hair is African perfect! Image c: @AthleteVanity

I think the real issue in this whole birthright citizenship debate comes down to one phrase in the 14th Amendment: “subject to the jurisdiction thereof.” From what I understand, historically, that phrase was meant to exclude very specific cases, like children of foreign diplomats. In that situation, even if the child is born on U.S. soil, the parents are not fully under U.S. legal authority. For example, if a diplomat commits a crime, the U.S. cannot just prosecute them normally. They have diplomatic immunity and their home country is involved. So they are not fully “within U.S. jurisdiction” in the same way. But that is different from undocumented immigrants or even people on temporary visas. If someone in those categories commits a crime in the U.S., they can be arrested, prosecuted, and imprisoned under U.S. law. In other words, they are clearly subject to U.S. jurisdiction in a real, practical sense. So the question becomes: if the law recognizes them as being under U.S. authority enough to be punished, why would their children not also fall under that same jurisdiction when it comes to citizenship? I know the counterargument is that “jurisdiction” also includes allegiance: that some people still owe primary loyalty to another country. But then that raises a deeper question: does “jurisdiction” in the 14th Amendment mean full political allegiance, or does it mean being subject to U.S. law? That tension seems to be the real heart of the debate. Even historically, there were exceptions like Native American tribes at the time, who were treated as separate sovereign nations and not fully under U.S. jurisdiction until later changes in law. So it shows that this has never been a simple or one-dimensional issue. I guess what I am saying is… this debate is less about politics and more about how we interpret that one phrase, and what we think “jurisdiction” really means in practice.

Not bad: "Baylor University's philosophy department is highly regarded, particularly for its PhD program, which was ranked #2 worldwide for *job placement* by the Academic Philosophy Data and Analysis (APDA) project."

🚨🇮🇹 Gattuso: “Italy lost just two matches in the group, earned 18 points and still didn’t qualify for the World Cup. But 10 African teams qualified? Who is going to watch them? Are you going to sit in front of the TV for Cape Verde or Curaçao? These qualifying rules are absurd and unfair.”

@realjakemcneil @CoreyWriting Folks who often change the social dynamics are in the social sciences and humanities. STEM often look for the next big thing after each discovery. This is why presidents and leaders are often lawyers, economists, educators, and philosophers.

@TSAdedara @CoreyWriting Nah I think it’s probably because applied math is hard and anyone can write anything about “class struggle” as long as their tenured advising professor keeps their reserved parking spot, imo.
