onez:What's all these unnecessary thing please ? Can you just stop this unnecessary troval nonsense for once ? |
A terrible and bloody Civil War freed enslaved Americans. The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution (1868) granted African Americans the rights of citizenship. However, this did not always translate into the ability to vote. Black voters were systematically turned away from state polling places. To combat this problem, Congress passed the Fifteenth Amendment in 1870. It says: The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. Yet states still found ways to circumvent the Constitution and prevent blacks from voting. Poll taxes, literacy tests, fraud and intimidation all turned African Americans away from the polls. Until the Supreme Court struck it down in 1915, many states used the "grandfather clause " to keep descendents of slaves out of elections. The clause said you could not vote unless your grandfather had voted -- an impossibility for most people whose ancestors were slaves. This unfair treatment was debated on the street, in the Congress and in the press. A full fifty years after the Fifteenth Amendment passed, black Americans still found it difficult to vote, especially in the South." What a Colored Man Should Do to Vote", lists many of the barriers African American voters faced. The fight for African American suffrage raged on for decades. In the 1930s one Georgia man described the situation this way: "Do you know I've never voted in my life, never been able to exercise my right as a citizen because of the poll tax? ... I can't pay a poll tax, can't have a voice in my own government." Many brave and impassioned Americans protested, marched, were arrested and even died working toward voting equality. In 1963 and 1964, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. brought hundreds of black people to the courthouse in Selma, Alabama to register. When they were turned away, Dr. King organized and led protests that finally turned the tide of American political opinion. In 1964 the Twenty-fourth Amendment prohibited the use of poll taxes. In 1965, the Voting Rights Act directed the Attorney General to enforce the right to vote for African Americans. The 1965 Voting Rights Act created a significant change in the status of African Americans throughout the South. The Voting Rights Act prohibited the states from using literacy tests and other methods of excluding African Americans from voting. Prior to this, only an estimated twenty-three percent of voting-age blacks were registered nationally, but by 1969 the number had jumped to sixty-one percent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pEEm0Be7H8

In the state of Akwa Ibom in southeastern Nigeria, it is common for children to be branded witches and face neglect and physical harm. Some Christian churches even perpetuate these superstitious beliefs, and self-proclaimed healers make good money performing strange exorcism rituals. David Umen and his wife Anja Lovén have made it their mission to fight this witch craze. They give the young victims a new home—but these boys and girls struggle to cope with the trauma of being abused and abandoned by their own parents. A report by Jan-Philipp Scholz. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ei13Et5yda8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ot-Z-Tg1RE

LIVE Open the menu LIVE UPDATES LIVE UPDATES, Jenin attack live: Israel kills nine Palestinians, tensions high Video Duration 16 minutes 24 seconds 16:24 Seven Palestinians killed as Israel launches air attacks on Jenin By Brian Osgood, Umut Uras, Zena Al Tahhan and Farah Najjar Published On 3 Jul 2023 3 Jul 2023 Click here to share on social media Israeli forces launch air attacks and ground raids carried out by hundreds of soldiers, killing at least eight Palestinians in the largest military operation in Jenin in 20 years. A ninth Palestinian is shot dead by Israeli soldiers near Ramallah. Read more 1h ago (01:45 GMT) Some 3,000 flee Jenin refugee camp amid Israeli military onslaught Approximately 3,000 Palestinians have fled the Jenin refugee camp since Israeli forces began major military operation in the area on Monday, a Palestinian official said. “There are about 3,000 people who have left the camp so far,” Jenin deputy governor Kamal Abu al-Roub told the French news agency AFP, adding that arrangements were being made to house the displaced in schools and other shelters in the city of Jenin. He said about 18,000 Palestinians reside in the refugee camp. Israeli forces operating with “total impunity” in Jenin Rami G. Khouri, co-director of global engagement at the American University of Beirut, said the “level of intensity” of the latest attacks by Israeli forces were far more than the population of Jenin had “ever experienced before”. Placing the military operation in the context of “Israeli colonial violence” which has been ongoing for a century, Khouri said Israeli forces were operating with “total impunity”. “The Israelis have such disproportionately greater power – and total impunity at the UN because of the US and other vetoes – that they can do anything that they want. And they are doing that,” Khouri told Al Jazeera. “They’re doing whatever they feel they want to do. However extreme it is and nobody is holding them accountable,” he said. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEaupS1_Yz8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fMU2y6afcw

ajidikun:You have a serious problem. If you can't see that here doesn't mean it wasn't a pastor that tagged her a witch to be burnt. |
As cases of witchcraft branding continue to thrive and perpetrators go unpunished, the recent is Mrs Martina Okey Itagbor, a mother of four girls who was accused of witchcraft and was subsequently burnt to death in Old Netim, Akamkpa Local Government Area of Cross River State. In April 2023, some youths suspected to be gangsters accused the late Martina of inflicting illness on a certain youth in the community. One of her daughters who narrated to CrossRiverWatch said the chief of the community, Ntufam Augustine Nyong Orok washed his hands off the accusation and asked Mrs. Martina to defend herself if she was not a witch. The matter was said to have been reported to Old Netim Police Station, Akamkpa same April 2023 when the first attack was launched on her but the police were in fear because gangsters were involved. On the 13th of June, 2023, some youths in the community gathered and stocked themselves in a charted vehicle heading to the inauguration reception of the member representing Akamkpa 1 State Constituency and formal Commissioner for Agriculture during former Governor Ben Ayade term – Hon. Okon Owuna. Unfortunately, the youths who were suspected to be drunk had an accident and two of them lost their lives on the spot and many were injured. A day after, some of the youths came and dragged Madam Martina out of her house to the main road, alleging she masterminded the accident and death of the two youths using witchcraft. https://www.youtube.com/live/SH1a-ulwz9c?feature=share

Presidential hopeful General Wesley Clark says the White House devised a five-year plan after the 9/11 strikes to attack seven majority-Muslim countries. A former commander of NATO’s forces in Europe, Clark claims he met a senior military officer in Washington in November 2001 who told him the Bush administration was planning to attack Iraq first before taking action against Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Iran, Somalia and Sudan. The general’s allegations surface in a new book, The Clark Critique, excerpts from which appear in the latest edition of the US magazine Newsweek. Clark says after the 11 September 2001 attacks, many Bush administration officials seemed determined to move against Iraq, invoking the idea of state sponsorship of terrorism, “even though there was no evidence of Iraqi sponsorship of 9/11 whatsoever”. Ousting Saddam Hussein promised concrete, visible action, the general writes, dismissing it as a “Cold War approach”. Clark criticises the plan to attack the seven states, saying it targeted the wrong countries, ignored the “real sources of terrorists”, and failed to achieve “the greater force of international law” that would bring wider global support. He also condemns George Bush’s notorious Axis of Evil speech made during his 2002 State of the Union address. “There were no obvious connections between Iraq, Iran, and North Korea,” says Clark. “There was no evidence of Iraqi sponsorship of 9/11 whatsoever” General Wesley Clark https://fb.watch/lsaKF8uzJZ/ https://www.facebook.com/100068851209610/videos/americas-plan-attack-seven-muslim-countries-in-5-years-general-wesley-clarkif-th/250873530263764/?locale=ur_PK https://www.google.com/search?q=america+plan+to+invade+7+countries+in+middle+east&source=lmns&tbm=vid&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiur5njwOb_AhXzpUwKHTIwBjAQ_AUoA3oECAEQAw#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:58fd3142,vid:TY2DKzastu8 |
On 17 January 1961, just sixty years ago, the first legally elected prime minister of the DRC was assassinated after being overthrown with help from Washington. A sinister episode that Larry Devlin, the ‘Mr. Congo’ of the CIA from 1960 to 1967, would reveal half a century later in his fascinating book, ‘Chief of Station, Congo: Fighting the Cold War in a Hot Zone.’ Leopoldville, on 30 June 1960. With the declaration of its independence, the DRC finally emerges from its long colonial history. A new bilateral system is established with a head of state as cunning as he is impenetrable, Joseph Kasavubu, and a Prime Minister as charismatic as he is unpredictable, Patrice Lumumba. In bars, people dance to the rhythm of the Independence Cha Cha, but the euphoria will be short-lived. On 5 July, a mutiny broke out in the Thysville camp (Mbanza-Ngungu), then spread to the capital. Over a matter of pay, no doubt, but also a revolt against the continued Belgian presence in the DRC by virtue of bilateral agreements. “For the army and General Janssens, who commands it, has the impudence to say that independence means nothing.” On 11 July, the rich province of Katanga, where the Belgian “Mining Union” reigns, secedes under the leadership of Moïse Tshombe. South Kasai threatens to do the same. This new state-continent is on the verge of imploding. It is in this context that the new CIA station chief landed at Leopoldville Beach on 10 July 1960. A CIA agent since 1949, Lawrence (Larry) Devlin is an experienced man and a tough guy. His “cover” is that of an ordinary consul, and his local boss is US Ambassador Clare Timberlake. Very quickly, the two men believed in the same thing, shared in Washington by their superiors: Prime Minister Lumumba, the Kasai nationalist and co-founder of the powerful Congolese National Movement, is a dangerous man. A communist? No. A USSR agent? Probably not. A man who could be easily manipulated by the Soviets and the KGB? Certainly. It is therefore necessary to do everything possible to isolate him. With the utmost discretion, Devlin then begins to sound out, with a view to possible recruitment, some of the most prominent Congolese political leaders, reputed for their animosity towards Lumumba. They include Albert Kalonji, leader of the Balubas of South Kasai, Paul Bolya, a Mongo leader from Ecuador, Pierre Soumialot, Lumumba’s own private secretary, the trade unionist Cyrille Adoula and, above all, the man who would become one of his most loyal contacts, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Justin Bomboko. During the month of July 1960, the situation deteriorated a little more each day. In Matadi, on the Atlantic coast, Belgian parachutists were deployed to protect their compatriots from the Congolese army who were fighting with heavy weapons. On the 13th, Lumumba announces the rupture of diplomatic relations with Belgium and threatens to call for Soviet intervention if the Westerners do not move. On the 17th, a first contingent of UN peacekeepers landed at N’Djili airport, led by British General Alexander, who said: “Congolese politicians have not yet come down from their trees.” A maelstrom of violence and looting At the heart of this maelstrom of violence and looting, the Americans are more obsessed than ever with the Prime Minister. Not only do the socialist chancelleries – the USSR, Czechoslovakia, China, East Germany, Ghana, Guinea – support Lumumba, but his own entourage is, according to the CIA, full of “KGB agents.” We are in the middle of the Cold War, and the Americans will stop at nothing to counter their target. Learning that the prestigious Time magazine is planning to publish a cover story about Lumumba, Ambassador Timberlake warns his counterpart in Belgium, who calls up his friend Henry Luce, the magazine’s owner. The result: Lumumba disappears from the cover in the name of America’s supreme interests. In a wired message to CIA headquarters, Devlin wrote: “Patrice Lumumba was born to be a revolutionary, but he doesn’t have the qualities to exercise power once he’s seized it. Sooner or later, Moscow will take the reins. He believes he can manipulate the Soviets, but they are the ones pulling the strings.” On 26 August 1960, Allen Dulles, the director of the CIA, replied: “If Lumumba continues to be in power, the result will be at best chaos and at worst an eventual seizure of power by the communists, with disastrous consequences for the prestige of the UN and the interests of the free world. His dismissal must therefore be an urgent and priority objective for you.” On 5 September, Kasavubu dismissed Lumumba and replaced him with Joseph Ileo. However, the nationalist leader fights back, refuses to leave his post and wins parliamentary backing. The constitutional path seems blocked. The CIA believes the time has come to get down to business: the coup d’état.
