Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka is traveling back to America a year after he tore his Green Card, following the victory of Donald Trump at the Presidential election. The novelist will be delivering the Richard D. Cohen Lectures at Harvard University Centre for African Studies from November 14 to 16. “I’ll go in as an alien, an alien from outer space. I love that designation,” Soyinka said in an interview with Financial Times of London published on Friday. The lectures will be in three parts, under the theme: BEYOND AESTHETICS: Use, Abuse and Dissonance in African Art Traditions. “My life has been involved with the diaspora on a very personal and visceral level,” he said of his interaction with prominent African-Americans. Soyinka had promised to tear his Green Card and leave America if Donald Trump emerges as President.

As long as the man himself Soyinka is heading to the states.... He definitely owns a green card for sure.... In as well... He tore a duplicate green card for the sake of public media infrigiment and idol restoration.... Highly priotized scam |

I've heard of this man before...but haven't read his works. However, so many people (celebrities included) said they would leave the U.S. if President Trump was elected.... He was elected. No one left. People talked....yet no one was courageous enough to leave the country where they have been afforded the most opportunities and comfortability...regardless of who was elected. It was unrealistic & immature to behave in that manner...especially if one wasn't gonna follow through. Just goes to show that we need to be careful with our words. I respect those who said nothing....and just showed by their actions.... I respect people who "say" nothing...and just "show" by their actions. 1 Like |
