USA Africa Dialogue Series - Lianne La Havas: No Room For Doubt

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f845_v41YFo

No Room for Doubt
You caught me, guilty
Taking the pieces of you
That night, you took flight
I couldn't decide what to do
I won't let a safe bet
Continue to make me go blue
I could go solo
Would that be the right thing to do?
We all make mistakes, we do
I learnt from you
We all make mistakes, we do
I learnt from you
I tiptoe, too slow
Out of the door to your house
I know you know
That this way leads me out
Outside, too bright
You're within I'm without
You're within
We all make mistakes, we do
I learnt from you
We all make mistakes, we do
I learnt from you
Please sleep softly
Leave me no room for doubt
Please sleep softly
Leave me no room for doubt
Please sleep softly
Leave me no room for doubt
Please sleep softly
Leave me… Full lyrics on Google Play Music

USA Africa Dialogue Series - TRUMP-LAND: My Own Version of "Covfefe"



My People:

If you have not heard of President Trump's viral tweet word "covfefe", then you can just skip to the last letter of this email..

Now it is not ORIGINAL of me to state that he meant to write "coverage" as in "press coverage" - whereupon he wrote "press covfefe" - and then fell asleep for the next six hours on his Iphone.  What is original to me - I think - is how "coverage" became "covfefe".

So here goes:

1.  If he had come close to the correct spelling, he would still have mispelt it as "coverge" - missing out the "a".  It is the "erge" that became "fefe".

2.  How did that occur?  That must have been through his "QWERTY" keyboard of his Iphone:

                QWERTY
           ASDFGH

3. So in his sleepiness in typing "erge" - and considering the size of his fingers -  the first "e" became "f", the "r" became "e", the "g" became "f" and the second "e" was properly typed as "e".

4.  And there you have it:  my own "covfefe" explanation of "covfefe!"

5.  I feel that my guess is at least better than Hilary Clinton's, who (mischievously)  thinks that the word is a code word to the Russians from Trump! :-)

Lord have mercy.....

USA Africa Dialogue Series - Re: Yoruba Affairs - New Book; The Yoruba in Brazil

Great works coming from great minds. Kudos to the authors and the two mega-editors, Professors Afolabi and Falola. Thanks for relentlessly and inexhaustibly availing us with trans-Atlantic cultural literacy capable of passing the test of time. I love the Freudian slip, "Written in Yoruba and Portuguese." I think the next edition should actually be in Yoruba and Portuguese. E ku ise o! (Gran trabajo)!
