Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - My Oxford University Seminar Tomorrow

Thanks for your support sister Glo. There was some drama because as soon as I opened my mouth, the Zoom was hijacked and bombed with porn. We had to close and restart but it was good to know that those opposed to Decolonization would go to all that trouble to disrupt an academic seminar.

The restarted session was recorded and will be made available soon.

Keep up the good work with Africa Update even if some colleagues are eating their own words against emancipation.

Sorry I missed this intellectual event

involving a transformational leader in the field of criminology.

 It  is a particularly busy day-  with some sudden student appointments, University meetings, and  responses to an unsavory racist letter sent to Connecticut educators 

by one of my colleagues in the History  Department, attacking affirmative action and the 1619 Project  aimed at

leveling the playing field. We also are engaged in preparations for final exams.

Biko, you couldn't have chosen a busier day but I am consoled by the hope that the seminar has been archived for later viewing.

Well OA's note had a sting in the tail. I would say, though, that if the Europeans who fought two deadly civil wars,  in what have been called World Wars I & II - can unify somewhat, there is hope for us all.

Biko:

That was a wonderful seminar.  I joined at the latter end.

  

Your idea of decommissioning the prison system as a money making industry is well taken as well as its replacement with mire funding for education.

I still maintain the concept of the United States of Africa is problematic coming from a presenter who comes from the section of a country where the Fulani herdsmen are being told to go back to their homeland in the North rather than resettling them in their current states with adequate retraining.
