How can the politicians that rise help Kenya create the conditions for economic growth, prosperity and long term ethnic harmony? <br /><br />And what, once these conditions are achieved, can the development minded politicians do to sustain this progress?<br /><br />NB: The stinking track records for bad and fallen politicians is well a known painful topic that is reserved for another day.<br /><br />And by the way, the worst kabila-mende (or chachu) I have ever met or known are people from the very backyards of my parents' former ancestral villages, clans and regions.<br /><br />The internal hatred among these people is far worse than that between dogs or hyenas and sheep.<br /><br />So, I have always wondered where they even get the time to brew hatred for the other unsuspecting ethnicities in the country.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12839785.post-47253453364141850452012-03-30T09:35:38.268-07:002012-03-30T09:35:38.268-07:00BREAKING NEWS/TABOO: SPERM HUNTERS ON THE PRAWL

Have you had the chance to see Skin (...@Kumekucha,<br />Have you had the chance to see <b>Skin (2008 film)</b>, a biographical film about Sandra Laing's life.<br /><br />And you may also have heard or read books about Sandra's life under several titles, such as, <b>Sandra Laing: A Spiritual Journey (2000)</b> and <b>Skin Deep: The Story of Sandra Laing (2009)</b>. <br /><br />Hate to imagine what happened to the number of innocent children like Sandra that were born to white (Afrikaner) parents who never had the guts and same courage as Abraham and Sannie Laing.<br /><br />It goes without saying, majority of them must have been handed over for immediate adoption the moment their skin colour become evident, or worse, their classification became official.<br /><br />Many painful and heart wrenching stories have been told of how compassionate and passionate parents of children like Sandra had no option but to sneak their children out of South Africa and into next door Bostwana, South West Africa, present day Namibia, and Southern Rhodesia.<br /><br />That was the only option or avenue through which conflicted parents could manage to find the time in order to come and visit with their 'coloured children' every so often during school holidays or whenever chance availed itself, since most of the affected parents had to not only protect their livelihood, careers, business interests, ancient family histories, membership in certain institutions and organisations, but also their very own lives at the time.<br /><br />The fortunate South African children with Sandra Laing's skin colour were the ones whose parents were lucky enough to have had the means and friends to ship them out to far away places like Australia, New Zealand, Britain, Canada, Netherlands, Belgium and Scotland, as the only alternative countries that would provide them with good opportunities to have a better chance at life.<br /><br /><b>That's one of the reasons why so many of us, free people, around the world should never ever take democracy for granted in any way, shape or fashion</b>.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
