		<description><![CDATA[We the Bwanas (whites) take the cat fish. I am the Bwana and you are the Muntu. I get what I want and you get what you deserve, crumbs. That’s what lazy people get—Zambians, Africans, the entire Third World.” “Every white person on this plane feels superior to a black person. The white guy who picks up garbage, the homeless white trash on drugs, feels superior to you no matter his status or education. I can pick up a nincompoop from the New York streets, clean him up, and take him to Lusaka and you all be crowding around him chanting muzungu, muzungu and yet he’s a riffraff. Tell me why my angry friend.”]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Firstly, I must apologize to readers for the long hiatus. The travails of a Masters’ program were tough but have been duly conquered… and hopefully with aplomb. Assuredly, the time off has broadened my horizons and added to my bank of knowledge, which should result in a better and more informed read. The headlines still [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Often we get young entrepreneurs with charitable hearts eager to help Africa. Unfortunately, they often forget the basics. Such as a school without quality teachers is simply a building; a classroom without adequate textbooks is merely a room full of children. These charities erecting buildings make it easy to forget the essential problem – unequal [...]]]></description>

However, I am hesitant to join this bandwagon especially when Ghaddafi, who just called for Nigeria to be split into two, is its current champion. There is no doubt we need [...]]]></description>
