Social Democrat 

Conservative                             

Libertarian 

Fascist/Radical Right 

Communist/Radical Left 




I was not really suprised about my political ideology as Liberal because I believe on equal rights and liberty.
Liberty because for me it is indispensable that an individual has the right to behave according to one's own personal responsability and free will as long as he does not encroach upon that of others.
Equal rights because I have a deep conviction that we all are the same even though we do not have the same complexion or languages or whatever...Because we were all fetus in the womb of our mother for 9 months then came a beautiful day we are born into the world of "the living" thanks to the perseverance of a noble hearted woman who recieved that might from the Almighty God and only for this reason we must be treated equally. Some will say that the process were different for them, that they were in the womb of their mother for only seven or eight months but the fact is that we all come from a womb or with the new technologies namely the so-called insemination (still with the fusion of spermatozoons and ova...)As long as you you belong to mindkind you deserve to be treated as everyone either before the law or in everyday life and so one.


Nevertheless, I was very suprised with the appearance of fascist/Radical Right in my political ideology.

TRAVESTY OF FAIR TRADE IN AFRICA

After years of slavery Africa is know on the verge of having it's own Word in the world. But as we no longer talk about slavery nowadays the former colonists are trying to have their words too by investing in Africa and then bring what we commonly known as being bribery or corruption in that land.

A case in point: Nigeria indicting former US vice president Dick Cheney and former company to court for corrupting government officials.

Because they know that Africa is  immensely rich in people, potential and recourses they are doing our best to corrupt our learders which is totally unfair.

For instance, Ghana in 2008 produced about 89 tons of gold.At the current price of gold, there should be substantial revenue from gold. But no. Ghana only gets about 3% of the profit.  How would you call this? My answer will merely be a TRAVESTY OF FAIR TRADE this is not the only case we have.

I think as an African citizen that it is high time that we put an end to this because we have all we need for a brighter future God willing:

First of all, we must have a self love we have so much self hate which manifests itself through leaders who do not want to relinquish power (think about Ivory Coast), civil wars , corruption and all the other bad stuffs.

We need to love ourselves. What the world needs now is a creed of selfless leaders, who would look beyond personal gains and with a straightforwardness work for making this world a better place to be. Remember Michael Jackson’s words.

Viola Desmond

The case of  Viola Davis Desmond is really interesting not only in African Nova Scotian Community but also in Nova Scotia's Government because it will push people to trike down any kind of segregations.


Maybe she was wrong by sitting in the seat of "white" with her floor seat but I think they could do it in a more respectful way instead of draining her as a sheep or even worse a wild beast and by doing that injured her knee.


I think that fact that the government insisted on arguing that her case was a case of evasion and without taking into consideration the legal segregation that the theatre utilized is really amazing above all the fact that the two men injured her knee were even not mentionned because she could at least recieve damaged from what they had done to her.


Nevertheless, I do agree with the fact Ms Desmond was pardoned by Nova Scotia Lt.-Gov. Mayann Francis as "A pardon removes the offense from the record as though it never happened, but each succeeding generation of Canadians should be aware of the struggle that Ms. Desmond engaged in."  just because it is better late than never.


“If you allow people to dictate what you can and can’t do, then you will never reach your dreams.”   this quotation of Ms DESMOND is really powerful in my opinion because " none but ourselves can free our mind " we have to take our future in our hand and do all we can in order to make things go better...For instance, it is really important for Black people to take control on their future by going to school as pointed out by Charles Dickens during his Speech on the opening of the Manchester Free Library in 1852 "the more a man knows, the more humbly, and with a more faithful spirit he comes backs to the fountain of all knowledge, and takes to his heart the great sacred precept,"on earth peace, good will toward men"namely knowledge has nothing to do with colour therefore we all are equal also in any kind of stuff here on earth...

Is Canada's Rosa Parks ?

Well, I think it is high time we stopped making such confusions because Rosa Parks is not an African Canadian but she is an African American civil rights activist born in February 4th 1913 who refused to give her seat to a white at the request of the racist driver James Blake.

And I strongly believe that she was right by doing so because first of fall she didn't have to recieve orders from the driver all the more she had paid for a own seat. Secondly, as a human being she had the right to do,  to go and  to seat wherever she wants as long as she pays for it.

The earth belongs to everyone Black, White Yellow or Whatever ... therefore we are all equal as Howard Thurman said "I want to be me without making it hard for you to be you."

Black Mother Black Daughter in 1989

African Nova Scotian women situations in 1989

This Blog is dedicated to mankind and above all to those Black Mothers  Black Daughters who were ill-treated by Whitemen.

"for all those countries who had been exploited and ripped the black from his home has a big price to pay. None of them will ever have peace until the debt is paid."


It is just amazing how people can  sometimes be wild. I do not know how a human being can act like they did before.

But anyway things have been done so it is up to us now to write our future and our  shining days by taking into consideration what they have done so far and then do all our best in order no to commit the same mistakes I think this is what really matters here.




African Nova Scotian women suffered from disrespect and other kind of atrocities: not only they were slaves but they could not even think to run away because they were marked just like a herd of sheep so that if they ever run they will be easily discovered and then brought to their master.There were also an reward for the first person who brings the slaves to his master.

What is so amazing was that they even dit not respect the Black women loyalists  with whom they were working because they thought that they were jsut better than them as a matter of fact these Black  women loyalists were underpaid compared to their white counterparts. For instance, they were compelled to do men's work whereas white women didn't.

Thanks to their mothers they always had the strengh to keep on fighting and cope with life and any kind of discrimination.


Also, family and above all the Church were very helpful for African Nova Scotia community because it  helped them a lot to get together from time to time and shared very good times. 


In addition, we have seen that Black Mother had a significant role to play in the life of their descendant because they were seen as "faith-enhancers" namely they always had the right word at the right time maybe it is because they were so straightforward as it as always been said that "words come easy when they are true". Furthermore, we must talk about the efforts that were done by Nova Scotian Univesities above all the Dalhousie University which stimulated those African Nova Scotian women who were trying to get their degree by going to the university in order to have a normal and decent life like everyone wants to have.

In Conclusion I will just say that as disgraceful acts are done by human beings it can truly be fixed by them also. How? by doing our best to change things we have done as Nova Scotian politics has done so far by giving to these Black Nova Scotia women a strong and  unshakeable dignity and personality.


 It is all about political powers and we do know that the law in itself cannot and will never ever create men. Therefore, it is our duty as human beings to make laws, because we are all the same  : " Whether you are black or white there is no difference, what really matters is to belong to Mankind! ".


" No matter how much we look back at the past, we never go back. We cannot change what has already happened " but we can use the past to build our future...
