Worse than being black, is being black and live in Africa.

This continent, this country, my country is beautiful, despite being poorly wealthy.

Sometimes it seems that we all need humanitarian aid and something else in this country. And as I always say, right, "Worse than being black, is being black and live in Africa", it is not easy (...) we are talking about a country where the mother leaves home because she is tired of being physically attacked , and when she looks for family support  (which is common in my country) she is told that she must endure because her grandmothers, aunts and Mother also endured all kinds of suffering.  

Some say that women in Angola, when they get married, are prepared and also destined to suffer. I'm referring to a country where the father hangs his children and himself because of hunger, where children die of hunger and the child's body is devoured by animals, police are more frightening than hearing that the neighbor has flown.

This war is a silent but loud noise. I say a silent noise because the people suffer and scream for help from those who have the power to change, but no one hears that noise, NOBODY!

Where those who go to the streets in times of covid, because they have no choice, are brutally slaughtered on the street or killed by the police, an organ designed for public protection. Where someone of the same color, gender, hair type, ethnicity (...) fight against each other, they are bewitched for any petty reason. That is, in addition to the political side, public security and others, among compatriots, civilians, we also fight against each other. Africa, Angola, O my beautiful and beautiful home, what is your purpose on this planet? Great scholars say that Africa's biggest problem is Education, and I don't disagree, maybe if we studied a little bit more, we wouldn't be that poor, and maybe we wouldn't fight each other.

Sorcery and rivalry already existed, have existed ever since then and forever more, but now it seems that we are at the peak, at the peak of suffering, causing suffering to others, which has the same color as you and comes from the same place as you are the cherry on the cake. Hinder your neighbor's life, with the same color and provenance, is the pinnacle of life. The type of education spoken in Africa goes much further than academic education, it is also about moral and civic education. Understand that not causing pain and suffering to others is also a way of living in abundance and having peace. This is a cold war that we are going through and we always have, but now it is filmed in a turbulent, but noisy silence. See! Worse than being black, it is being black and live in Africa.
