(Kort Verhaal)
14-07-2009
by Victor Oriwa
After the 2007 elections, Kenya was burning. Tens of thousands of people, mostly women and children, were displaced. The world thought Kenya was finished. Was it ethnicity or just people and power?

(Poëzie)
4-09-2009
by Sina MrK
Dance with me, dance with me,
Once I'm free,
And dance till then
And sing with me.
Dance like the wind, shake the trees,
move the boats, on the seas.
Dance like the waves, breaking on the shore,
reaching the coast, knocking at the door....
In my hand

by ondo Marina
In my hand
I hold the world
I hold your hand
I support you
I give love
In my hand
I see disentangling
My stolen life
My dream
My hijacked fate
to this hand, I say:
Whatever happens, count on me!
Why inflexible, why...
Is democracy alive and well?
(Opinies)

by ondo Marina

It is your choice now!
(Poëzie)
11-09-2009
by Timothy G. Branfalt Sr.
Many people have lived in fear.
For many a day we have not chosen our way.
We do not understand what we read nor hear.
Some of us think it's just what we have to say.
Our statements are true-
for only short times.
Until they're approved...
Our hearts must speak!

by Timothy G. Branfalt Sr.
Take each day as it may be the last.
Make for a new future, but do not forget the past.
We must stop all aggression with all passion inside.
We must teach our own leaders how they must abide!
We must all take a stand with all the Love in our...
Peaceful protests turn deadly in the Peruvian Amazon

How many know of the struggles of those in the jungles of Peru? How many must die before the world will listen? Why did anyone have to die? Why wasn’t their peaceful struggle to save the Amazon enough to get...
Political change

by Richard Zhang
June 28th, 2009 was the day that sent Honduras into turmoil; it was the day that the Honduran military broke its own established democracy and overthrew its democratic leader, Manuel Zelaya, who was exiled into Costa Rica. The pretext that his...
Political change: our choice?
(Opinies)
17-07-2009
by Timothy G. Branfalt Sr.
If we all had a choice in political change, that would be "true democracy". It would be a government that was run by the people for the people, not by an individual who set standards which we had to obey. Democracy goes far back into the past. It...

Many people have lived in fear.
For many a day we have not chosen our way.
We do not understand what we read nor hear.

Mounting the plane bound for Srinagar from New Delhi, I bump shoulders with Indian soldiers tagged with double “R”s on their sleeves. Others have the word “Artillery” stitched to their collars. I am heading for an area in Northern India where...

My growing years were not particularly the best and I guess that is one of my driving forces for a better life today.

by Wayas Lubem
The rebranding campaign championed by the chief image maker of Nigeria (as she can be rightly called) is an issue that has taken the centre stage in most discussions, discourses, talks and debates. This was the case even before the flagging off of...

ففقدنا كــــــــــــرامــة الإنعتاق
لم أنـل حـق الحياة مـن بلاد
