XINGU INDIGENOUS PARK, Brazil, (Reuters) – Leaders of native tribes in Brazil issued a rallying call to protect the Amazon rainforest and its indigenous people from what they called the “genocide, ethnocide and ecocide” planned by the country’s far-right President Jair Bolsonaro. Continue reading
Over the years, Meghan has been shamed for the same things for which her sister-in-law, Kate, has been praised.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex (aka Prince Harry and Meghan Markle) didn’t just shockingly “step back” as senior members of the royal family this week — they gave the UK media a big “fuck-you” for years of what they said was biased and unfair coverage.
The couple’s new website on breaking up with years of royal protocol laid out — among a lot of other things — their media strategy, stating that they will no longer participate in the traditional royal press system that grants exclusive access to a select group of UK outlets.

Did Harry’s announcement to the British nation take his mental illness into consideration?
Once upon a short time ago, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were lauded as the breath of fresh air that the British monarchy needed to become more inclusive and modern. Let us fast forward to the point where on January 8, the couple stunned the nation, the world and disconcerted the Royals by announcing on Instagram that they were all but divorcing “The Firm” (a term for Royal family) and planning to split their time between Britain and North America.
Harry and Meghan
The two met on a blind date when Harry was in Canada promoting the Invictus Games and began dating in July 2016. Immediately the British tabloids started a sensationalized coverage of Meghan the Royal family Markle, an actress best known for her role as Rachel Zane in the American legal drama Suits, daughter of a white mother and a Black father. They referred to her as Prince Harry’s saucy divorcee, further alleging that she had engaged in raunchy snaps, and might still have been dating an ex-boyfriend at the time she met Harry.

Guyana in 2050: – By Dr. Dhanpaul Narine
Dr. Dhanpaul Narine
Old Dhanpaul had a dream. He assembled the brethren at Cuffy Square, in Georgetown.
“Comrades, I had a dream. Why are we the biggest racists at election time? By 2050, our country, Guyana, will be taken over by a foreign clan. It will be done legally and legitimately. This is how it will happen: There will be a large influx of foreigners with second Guyanese passports. Some will inter-marry with Guyanese and will become naturalized as citizens.
These two classes will form their own political parties that will outnumber the ethnic or indigenous Guyanese. They will win the elections and take over the country. It’s that simple. The children, born from inter-marriages, will not be loyal to Guyana, but to other countries. The textbooks, schools, and universities will teach this to them.

Opinion: Ensuring Progress is made in the Start of a New Decade – By Yvonne Sam
Readers forgive me if I fail to reflect any change in my approach now that 2020 has arrived. In fact, in the name of progress and enlightenment I have resolved to be even more brutally honest. Of late, for some strange reason it has become apparent that when Blacks climb to a position of power it seems as if they are afraid to help their own people.
Instead they sometimes display a willingness in part to help destroy us. Get it straight, I am not talking about the typical phrase, “I’m going to help you get a job.” I am strictly talking about the lack of a pure willingness to help our communities and our people to move forward.
On the other hand, whenever individuals from other races are occupying positions of power or prestige, they go all out to help their people. They demonstrate their willingness of what they would do to put both them and their communities in a position to succeed, and quite frankly they could not give a hoot about what anyone says or thinks.
