in the u.k yesterday ,a day of red nose was abserve in most schools and 
businesses. i don't no what brought about the idea of red nose but it a 
masive charity event. from famous media personalities to comedains and 
some politicians etc take part in the fundraising event. the amout raised 
was said to over £40 million .
but as usual the image assination of blacks bear the brunt of the fund 
raising theme. images of assolute pooverty and near stone age living 
conditions were brocasted uncensored to live odiences of millions accross 
the unted kingdom and europe. they said the fund will be used to help 
solve those problems .but research as sawn that most funds collected in 
the name of africa never left the shores of the u.k . so why do african 
countries still allowed the racist western media to use our countries to 
assasinate our image for a paltry price ? yesterday a well presented 
program was conducted by a bbc news reader ( a black lady) about the 
horrows of slavery and slave trade. the program was one in a million. the 
heros of the abolistionist movement were actually expose as minor part 
players and some western historians came out saying '' the evils slave 
trade were squarely layed in the door steps of the whites ''. they said no 
crime can match the horrows of slave trade. i can't aggree more. once 
black know the whorth of their image they will become concern in most 
issues affecting us.
we are nothing withgout our image . the west jealously guard there image 
of good and pure but the horrows of the past prove otherwise. yet still 
racism is now practice in a very diplomatic way to the extent that people 
though it is not existing.
todays racism is more callous in so many ways . yesterdays one was brutal 
and vicious to the level that blacks cannot trust each other any more.
the selling of africans to the europeans were encourage or made easy by 
inter-tribal fighting and capturing and then selling to the traders who 
make so that those useless fighting continue in as long as it takes to 
maintain the human commodity.
this kind of tails are still sang by famous musicains like lalo keba and 
so many others without knowing the historical implications of those 
barbaric practices. 
our image is our survival. racist south africa then make so they do 
maximum damage to the black image before handing over power. for those 
journalist aspiarant please read the book  TELL ME NO LIES BY JOHN 
PILGER . it is just £9 this will open your eyes to many realities.
may God save our race . we are still in danger of many forms 
extermination.believe it or not.
