Climate change is less a concept or a new phenomenon than it is an industry. The climate is always changing and so "climate change" is an oxymoron and a fiction. And if the climate is always changing, then I want to suggest is the earth and its climatic features is not losing its mind--that is, going insane--but through the prism of ancestry, the ancestral and natural forces of nature have coalesced with climatic features. In other words, climate features are ongoing expressions of immaterial forces, woven in the fabric of our world.
ast year, France withdrew its troops from Mali. This marked the end of a nine-year military operation, aimed at resolving the internal conflict and liberating Mali's territory from Al-Qaeda terrorists. However, according to locals, the French left without providing any tangible assistance, causing further destruction and numerous deaths among the civilian population. ‘Operation Barkhane was launched as part of a French plot to partition Mali’, believes political activist Aboubacar Sidick Fomba. Today, Malians are ready to fight against the dark legacy of colonisation. Will they succeed?

It is irresponsible and unethical to use Greenbergian working hypotheses in linguistics as replacement labels for historical Afrikan populations.
Anytime you listen to someone using Nilo Saharan, Afro Asiatic, Khoisan, Bantu etc. in the absence of reconstruction and or historical comparative evidence know that you listening to someone who is misinformed at best and a conscious con artist at worst.
These classifications are working hypotheses and are not to be taken as established historical linguistic facts until proven so. Most of these labels are simply areas of linguistic diffusion and have absolutely nothing to do with a genetic relationship.

Those in power have always used religion as a transport system into the psychology of the people. Here is a very brief explanation of how the conquerors of the world used and continue to use religion to maintain dominance over the masses.
The conquerors of various cultures ultimately become the providers of resources to those cultures which overtime will appear as a "naturally superior" group over a "naturally inferior" group. Once this perception is established, it becomes easier for the conqueror to convince the conquered that their position has been divinely arranged and part of an omniscient plan. The conquered people on the bottom, in reality, have no fair way of reaching the top and are now at the mercy of those on the top to provide them with a liberating belief system, of which those on the top pretend to have experienced.
The dream of the conquered to be in the position of their conquerors becomes so great that the conquerors must provide a way to make their dreams come true without actually changing their collective position. This is achieved by creating the illusion that they can make it to the top. There are many ways this is done but the most efficient way of accomplishing this illusion is by creating a theology that offers the people on the bottom a way to get to the top (heaven)---virtually.
A monotheistic belief system is created and at its essence, is a loving, kind and all-inclusive savior that allows an opportunity for the conquerors to be forgiven for their transgressions. The conqueror's diabolical acts of enslaving, subjugating and decimating various cultures are willingly expunged by the conquered through the act of forgiveness. The conquered passively become bound, tied or fastened (Latin description of the derivation of the word religion/religare) to "god" and worship instead of freedom and liberation. Individual and personal relationships with provided deities take precedence over group goals and agendas, which is what constitutes a culture in the first place. The conquered pathologically rationalize their privation with the hope and faith that one day their predicament will change and they will ultimately be escorted to a place where unconditional love, wealth and peace abound.
Religious belief and imperialistic agendas go hand-in-hand. In order to break the cycle of ecclesiastical enslavement, one must be willing to challenge the status quo, particularly in areas pertaining to psychological bondage. As long as religion exists, there will be fear, powerlessness, dependency, separatism, imperialism and delusion. Until we (the conquered) understand how we arrived at where we are in terms of our beliefs and how our beliefs perpetuate social impotence, we will continue to be the bottom-feeders of the world. There is no divine plan behind the equation of conqueror over conquered. The meek have not inherited anything and the last have not finished first. It is only by recognizing that real liberation comes from knowing the conqueror's motives and strategies. Conquerors need victims and bible believing, "god"-fearing, church loving people are just the prey that keeps them in power. Religion must die so that we may live.
This is a previously undiscovered African house, from east Kenya,. It is almost on the edge of extinction, with the tradition being preserved by one remarkable young woman, Ramadan. The tiny home, a beautiful example of organic architecture, is constructed by around twenty women builders over three days, usually just before a marriage. The house is unusually high, with a raised up bed, and this is to protect the occupants from the occasional flooding of the river Tana. All the natural materials are gathered from within a few kilometers of the village. Essentially it is a bentwood frame lashed together into a gridshell. The whole structure is strong as it is a natural parabolic dome. The area is undergoing rapid change as modern materials and electricity are being brought in, so we were very fortunate to be able to record this building before it disappears completely.
COMPETITION: We tried to count how many knots were actually used in making the building. We have a small competition. The person who is closest to our answer, within three months of the video uploading will receive one of the very last copies of my book, free of charge. Leave a comment with your number, and how you estimated it (even if it is just a random guess). As long as we can then contact you to get your address we will send you a book all about nomadic architecture. There are only about 20 left unsold and this will never again be printed.
FUNDRAISER: This high building has evolved out of a very lightweight and mobile architecture that the same tribe use in the semi-desert regions to the north. We need to raise $5,000 to return to make a full record of this building type. We are open to sponsorships, or would even take a guest with us if you will cover the costs, fancy a trip of a lifetime working on a really important research project?

As _Democracy Now!_ broadcasts from COP28 in Dubai, we look at how the United Arab Emirates is using its vast oil money to buy up the rights to land in many African countries in order to sell carbon credits to major polluters, a plan that critics characterize as a new form of colonialism. "After failing to mitigate at the source," wealthy polluters now "want to, basically, buy, on the cheap, African land," says Power Shift Africa's Mohamed Adow about wealthy nations' failure to deliver on climate finance and turn to a "land grab" on the African continent. "What they're doing is actually commodifying nature," says Adow, who describes carbon credits as an "imaginary concept" amounting to "permits to pollute."
