"if not racism, should we call it nihilism?" Mon Jan-05-15 03:23 PM by akon
Im in juba, south sudan thought this merits a separate post
interesting enough i met an BlackAmerican here in juba the other day and a) he's republican :o( and b) he actually used the line, if those people (i.e poor black people) werent so busy getting pregnant as teenagers
and then when he was talking about people from some village here in south sudan...) he was like, 'my people' ... (talking about how they are hard working and even with nothing... blablabla)
i kept looking to make sure he really was Black cause he sounded exactly like those come to save the africans but dont really give a shit about black people in their own country paternalistic white folks that i always run into.
y'all.... send better representatives.
:0(
and now everyone here asks me why they keep shooting the black kids in america (today; what is going on in america? its like our war here? but only it is legal?)

still please, send better representatives. ---
wait did you mean in general/everyone? (cause ^^^ im talking about black folk)
usaid types, (mainly white), ex peace-corp types the usual randumb humanitarian types we got many us-based ngos and you know how we do in the aid industry (rather import people than hire from the region). i've pretty much only worked us-based ngos (looking to do better, tho) would definitely prefer to see more Blacks (not these tho- except my friend L, she's pretty awesome)

i say take what you can get lol! go with it when you come back disassociate yourself
so damn many ways to romanticize the unknown though *sigh* ~~~~ When you are born, you cry, and the world rejoices. Live so that when you die, you rejoice, and the world cries. ~~~~ You cannot hate people for their own good.
