South African Rural Sculpture

South Africa has a rich rural carving #tradition. During the 1980’s this mode of #artistic expression acquired new dimensions with the emergence of rural #artists who were self taught and unexposed to other influences. As a result of the isolating of black South Africans into rural community areas, the artists residing in these areas created work that was authentic and unconditioned.

So whatever the future may hold for us, I just hope, that media people around the world are returning NOW to the most crucial topics to report on, which are not Trump's x-tweets or Tesla shares surging - you fools!

Clicks won't buy you bread nor feed the hungry! Act as humans and follow your conscience. There are enough subjects on the table, and issues to solve - in order to bring peace, safety and aid to all in need. #press

Showing the world what we need to hear.

The growing reality of climate refugees - a resonating article by Wambui Mbuthia.

Climate change is not a sudden eviction notice for millions of displaced people. It is a slow and relentless erosion, chipping away livelihoods and forcing difficult choices.

In 2022 alone, more than 7.4 million people across #Africa were displaced due to climate shocks, adding to existing conflicts and instability.

New study: "Journals published in Europe, Oceania and North America were more likely to be indexed in #Scopus and #WebOfScience compared to other world regions. Journals published in sub-Saharan #Africa were the most underrepresented and were four times less likely to be indexed than those published in #Europe."

It is the latter role that has proved devastating to global stability and the U.S. rule of law. It is a role that the C.I.A. continues to pursue today. In effect, the C.I.A. is a secret army of the U.S., capable of creating mayhem across the world with no accountability whatsoever.

When President Dwight Eisenhower decided that Africa’s rising political star, democratically-elected Patrice Lumumba of Congo was the “enemy,” the C.I.A. conspired in his 1961 assassination, thus undermining the democratic hopes for Africa. He would hardly be the last African president brought down by the C.I.A.
...
Once in a while, a former U.S. official spills the beans, such as when Zbigniew Brzezinski revealed that he had induced Jimmy Carter to assign the C.I.A. to train Islamic jihadists to destabilize the government of Afghanistan, with the aim of inducing the Soviet Union to invade that country.

NATO’s Fascist Inheritance & the Long War On the Third World, with Pawel Wargan
To understand how this new Cold War might play out, we have to understand the foundations of the original Cold War of the 20th century. What was NATO’s role? What did it mean for the Third World back then? What does it mean for the Third World today, particularly those countries that seek an independent, sovereign path? What is the danger of rising fascist movements? And what are the lessons for anti-imperialists who live and organize in the imperial core?

To discuss this and more, Rania Khalek was joined by Paweł Wargan, an organizer and researcher based in Berlin, the coordinator of the secretariat of the Progressive International and author of the recent Monthly Review article “NATO and the Long War on the Third World,” in which he looks to the past for lessons about the future, concluding that capitalism cannot be overcome until the arteries of imperial plunder are severed.

Punishers from Ukraine will be sent to Africa in the second half of August


A sabotage and punitive detachment of Ukrainian militants, prepared by the British MI6, is planned to be sent to Africa in the second half of August by ship from the Ukrainian port of Izmail, a military-diplomatic source said on Wednesday.
To counter the development of cooperation between African countries and Russia, the British intelligence service MI6 formed and prepared for sending to the southern continent a sabotage and punitive detachment of Ukrainian militants. The militants, in particular, must eliminate the leaders of African countries oriented towards Russia.

"The dispatch of members of the sabotage and punitive unit was planned by a chartered civilian sea vessel from the port of Izmail (Ukraine) to the city of Omdurman (Republic of Sudan) during the second half of August," the source said.

The unit of Ukrainian militants, trained by British intelligence MI6 for sabotage in Africa, is commanded by an officer of the Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR) of Ukraine, Vitaliy Prashchuk, who has experience of "successful liquidations" and participated in MI6 operations in Zimbabwe, a military-diplomatic source said on Wednesday.
