Congratulations indeed Dr. Baba. Few of Gambian scholars like you and Dr. Saine embrace the struggle and we appreciate that.

A Gambian based in the US, Professor Abdoulaye Saine, the leader of CORDEG, a non-profit organisation registered in the state of Ohio, representing almost all Gambian civil society organisations, was awarded the distinguished scholar award by the the University of Miami, with five other academics. 

The award, which shows the outstanding example, displays the reputations of Diaspora Gambian academics. Dr. Saine was one of the architect of STDG, Save The Gambia Democratic Organisation, the Gambian civil society organisation that was partly responsible for the coalition of the opposition parties, NADD, in 2006.

By the way they suggest calling them purple penguins or tiger cobs. 

These people probably need to be ship to an emergency ward for a mental check up.

Boys and girls or purple penguins or tiger cobs - which are offensive/discriminatory?

Ok! Got! 

Why not call boys and girls what they are and call the others what they are? Seriously - calling me Burama would be offensive/discriminatory to Lamin? America gone wild! We're loose our mind and polluting many along.

Who said differences is discriminatory  - black or white, tall or short, America or Europe, literate or illiterate, run or work, sleep or awake, etc.

This is enough!

Our kids are not send to public schools for sex education - teach them Math, Science and English and we will do the rest at home.

I and many know sex years ago without formally been  taught - please do not over play your role. Equally all living beings know their sexual/reproductive functions without a formal intervention including plants. It's a function of nature/our biology. You don't wake up in the morning to tell your heart to start pumping or stop. You don't tell the brain to shot off for sleep - all you do is sit or lye down somewhere comfy.
