To my first friend.To my favorite friend.To your parents who took me as their own. To your friends, who take me as their own. To your dogs, who stay chopping life. You are a perfect blend of Rwandan elegance and Belgian modesty. Confession Time. I am often tempted to burn shit down when confronted with…

Greetings from Cameroun, Le Continent! Currently stationned in the far north region, it’s so hot here but not nearly as hot as Senegalese Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko’s apparent hate for freedom. I once admired his anti-franco-colonial stance but I must say I am disappointed. Sanko has just introduced a bill to double prison sentence for…

**I write this note with my sister, my muse in mind. Sandrine has been with her husband 15 years+ yet she remains the least male-centered woman I know. I now finally understand everything she ever tried to teach. “It’s you, chouchou, you are the magic!” she’d say** I grew up sheltered, did not know men…

A week back on America soil and I was welcomed by an unbothered hijabi girl chewing gum, robotically repeating “citizens here, non citizens there”. Couple steps down, my ID was checked by a guy who unprovokingly expressed his frustration that his dad had two snow shovels but he accidentally wasted money on purchasing another (in…

Ugandan Presidential Elections happening now. Countrywide Internet shutdown. Opposition leader Bobi Wine and peers imprisonned and/or beaten per usual. The only thing that rushes my nausea quicker than a dishonest Young Nigga selling love is the Multi-Millionaire African Oligarchy clan. The only thing that rushes my nausea quicker than a dishonest YN together with African…

ICE just killed a fucking legal observer in Minnesota. I am signed up as a legal observer with the ACLU myself, we are LITERALLY trained to de-scalate. We’re supposed to just witness & document interactions between law enforcement and protestors. So the government’s unfounded rhetoric that this was self-defense is beyond unlikely. Meanwhile Somalis continue…

Aside from the fact that King James, whom the Bible is named after, was King of Scotland and England which have done absolute HORRORS to our people; man may have also been gay. Which — who even cares? Well, the Church. Not they love to hate on “the gays” and accidentally named their Holy Book…
