HALLO FRIENDS!!!

Been out of touch for so long......

My absence has seen Kenya concieve a new president. Before the president could be sworn in, there has been a Post Election Silence; which many consider as Peace.

My awayness has also seen me through the swamp of desperation as Kenyan artist desperately call for peace, the ominous PES(POST-ELECTION SILENCE) is not just want no one needs. That is why our noble artists and men of influence are wringing hands in desperation.

OOH! HABEMUS PAPAM!! WE HAVE A NEW POPE!! At the Vatican, there was no vote rigging or the breakdown of BVR kits! the pope was born whole.

And the case in court? Its anyone's guess!

Meanwhile let us break the silence with some song.

I am back like a bore....

It is more of a political movement that recognises the individuality and sexuality of women and how historically and religion wise have been segregated. Before the advent of feminism, women lived under the tutelage of their male counterparts. For instance, a woman did not have any right to choose whom to marry, it was the prerogative of the male family member to choose. In the TV Serial, Rome, Julius 'Octavian' Caesar, who later became Augustus Caesar, makes a decision that affects both his mother and sister in a way unimaginable.

POSITIVE ASPECTS OF NASILIAN CULTURE IN BLOSSOMS OF THE SAVANNAH

SOME ASPECTS OF CULTURE ARE BENEFICIAL AND OUGHT TO BE MAINTAINED. USING EXAMPLES FROM THE NOVEL, BLOSSOMS OF THE SAVANNAH, WRITE A COMPOSITION TO ILLUSTRATE THE TRUTH OF THE STATEMENT Culture defines our identity and social relationships within a certain setup. Sometimes, some cultural aspects come off as bad while others can be looked at as good. However, culture only becomes bad when compared to another that seems superior. Many African communities found themselves at crossroads when the ‘superior’ European culture was thrown down their gullets.
