The legend, Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela

Nelson Mandela on the eve of his 90th birthday in Johannesburg in May 2008

Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela, the first black South African president, has passed away peacefully on Thursday 5th September. He was the first black South African president, and was an anti - apartheid activist and was imprisoned for being a representative for black people. As a black kid, I think it's very wrong to be put in prison against civil rights. 27 years of his lie was spent in prison, and while serving his time, her developed an illness. Eventually after 2.5 gruelling decades in 1990, he was released and many celebrated on the streets of Johannesburg.
Nelson has always been my hero and if he wasn't in prison then maybe he would have lived longer. If someone stood up for me and my rights, I would give them the upmost respect. This is why I respect Nelson Mandela. He fought for the freedom of black people. If he weren't alive, no black person would be respected or treated fairly.
Heaven has found another angel!
R.I.P Mandela, may your spirit rest peacefully, and may God guide you through afterlife. You will always stay in minds, and keep a place in our hearts. We will miss you and you are the reason we are free today.

My Ancestors

If I was not from Africa, I probably wouldn't know about my ancestors. By hearing stories from my father at the age of 10, it helped me understand by the time I was 13. I started writing about my ancient history, and how they made me who I am today. Our ancestors date back to the time when Jesus was alive, but only few of us know this. A man like Nelson Mandela would recognise that he was living in constant protection of his ancestors.

They can do many things to help us, our ancestors. They help us through everything, we just don't know.

This shows how our parents should raise us. You can't raise a child without any discipline. They will get away with anything.
It's very funny, it shows people how African parents are.
My dad is exactly this. Enjoy

Kuwa Na Kiburi, Trots Wees, Be proud

Kujisikia fahari ya wewe ni nani. basi, mtu kukuambia kwamba wewe ni hauna maana, kwa sababu kirefu chini unajua kwamba si kweli. I love kuwa mimi, I love kuwa kutoka Africa, kwa sababu hii ni nani I am.
Kusimama, kuhisi nguvu, kuwa na kiburi.


Feel proud of who you are. do not let anyone tell you that you are worthless, because deep down you know that is not true. I love being me, I love being from Africa, because this is who I am.
Stand, feel strong, be proud.
