There should be no place in Africa for "foreign-owned mines." The mines belong to Africa and its people. Wherever our corrupt ruling elites have mortgaged such mines to historical plunderers of African natural resources, the people must rise, dislodge such compradors from power, and expel such external impositors. Are there foreign-owned mines anywhere in Europe or North America? The Burkina Faso leader, Captain Traore, is providing a quality of leadership that much of Africa had merely been dreaming about. I wish I could resurrect my father, who returned to his ancestors at age 95 in 2019, but who, all his life, had been longing to see a leader like Captain Traore, who is actualizing a long-held African Dream for a liberated homeland. May our God Almighty continue to protect him!

Food for Thought:
"I myself do not judge a man [or a woman] by the color of his [or her] skin. The yardstick that I use to judge a man [or a woman] is his [ or her] deeds, his [her] behavior, and his [or her] intentions." -- Malcolm X.
