politics
Politics does not dictate our collective cultural mindset as much as it simply reflects it; We've got to look in the mirror sometimes, and we've got one.
1993: An Extraordinary Year In The Life of a Nation.
Preamble In the 1980s, the military leader of Nigeria, Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida, better known as IBB, had promised to conduct elections and hand over power by 1990. To facilitate the process, two political parties were created and so was the governing electoral commission. Old generation politicians known as the old breed were banned from being part of the new dispensation, thus ushering the new breed politician. The new breed politicians had in their ranks, ex generals and previously elected governors, but none of this seemed to matter.

Congresswoman Tlaib’s Boost Act Is Needed In Every City Across The Country But Let’s Start With Detroit!!!
It’s time that America starts to utilize the endless wealth it has in mint platinum coins. In the COVID-19 era we have to evolve because the world will most likely never be the same again. Most people with active bank accounts use their debit or credit cards more than cash so the public has already been conditioned to use digital currency. This is why the “Boost Act”makes perfect sense for the people of Detroit. Detroit is furtile testing grounds for the “Boost Act” because the city had a 48% poverty rate prior to corona virus and it may likely be substantially higher because of the pandemic. It’s normal to see individuals waiting in foodlines in their cars wrapped around the corner on the daily basis at food banks and churches throughout the city. And also water shutoffs are rampant due to Detroit’s high water rates that are at least twice as high since Mayor Mike Duggan took office. Water is clearly supposed to be a human right but the water department doesn’t think so.

Politics and Religion 3
Part 3 WORKERS OF THE WORLD, UNITE! was the clarion call of the Marxist/Communist party. Note the word WORKERS. Marx’ entire philosophy hinged on the belief that the proletariat, the wage-slaves, from around the world would unite in one great revolution and create the ultimate Communist utopia. There was no room for what we call “welfare” in his system. He considered non-workers scum (his word not mine) and warned against this non-laboring class of people being swept up into the revolution as the hired thugs (his word, not mine) of a Reactionary Elite.

Betrayed
When seasons change there is always a certain anxiety in the air. Many people wonder what a new season will bring. The anticipation of positive change or a foreboding premonition of unsettling times ahead are the two distinct realities facing when seasons change. if this past year was any indication of what a new season brings more of us understandably acknowledge those foreboding premonitions of more difficult times still lay ahead.
