The first genocide of the 20th century, though not well known, was committed by Germans between 1904-1907 in the country we know today as Namibia, where they exterminated thousands of Herero and Nama people and subjected the surviving indigenous men, women, and children to forced labor. The perception of Africans as subhuman - lacking any kind of civilization, history, or meaningful religion - and the resulting justification for the violence against them is what author Elizabeth R. Baer refers to as the "genocidal gaze", an attitude that was later perpetuated by the Nazis.

Unforgettable prose style poetry pieces from amazing writer Julius Kane.

"Poetry, I believe, is about candid questions and conversations for and of the poet's time. This is what runs through Success's poetry. They are candid even through love, doubt, pain and desire even when such is unwelcome and considered rude. They are candid, powerfully and unapologetically. I like. I like!" (Nnanna Ikpo, author of Fimi sile Forever)

I was born to a married couple who were high school sweethearts who were madly in love with each other. Mom was very disappointed in the fact that she did not have a son. She blamed my Dad - her husband - for not giving her a son. Even though I was not what she wanted God still kept me through it all. He has kept me and made sure that I had the strength to go through all God had in store for me. When people think of their personal strength, the first thing they think of is weakness. They think they can’t do whatever the activity is.

Bashaun and Terri, since their almost fatal incident that brought them into each other's life, held on to that one thing that matters the most regardless of the situation, and that was realness. Just keeping it real had always been a challenge. Both had demanding lives but fought to press on with the love that was found between them.
