Greetings Kuumba!

You speak the truth warrior! Much appreciation to you for acknowledging the importance of this story. I agree there is not enough outcry. As a matter of fact you don't even hear about this on the news.

Afrikan lives of pain, suffering, disease, murder and injustice don't mean much to others, unless it mean a photo-op, or some type of reward, and even more sad to say it don't mean much to other Afrikans either.

The outcry for this disaster should be so loud, yet the silence is deafening. How can this be. What hope are we giving to future generations of Afrikan children to let them know that their lives, health and well being matters to their own people around the globe much less others. We need change, we need our leaders and Black orgs to step up to the plate, speak out, rally and gather the much needed help and support for our people.

Each one of us has to do our part to help our people. It is our duty.

Peace & Blessings
