MOVIE REVIEW: THE HATE YOU GIVE

Bang! bang! Shots fired out. Loud cries......."Don't shoot"!, Heard from a young lady. Starr. Whose screams and painful eyes were a witness to her young friend Khali, shot by policemen while trying to take his hair brush, from a bag. Tears. Wails. Lies. Injustice. Early death. Confusion. A distorted teenage mind on where to lay, in the code of law. The hate you give...... Starring

1. Sanaa Lathan

2. Anthony Makcie

3. Common

4. Issa Rae

Tells a tale of true outright cold-blooded killing of black people who are doing no wrong other than...... Be a different skin color.

It's a heart rendering film where the real heart of some white men is exposed and there in exposing to light, what we as individuals go through in Life. 

For example, a light or dark skinned  young and unmarried woman, being a Target of hate, by another woman who happens to be married with kids. Causing emotional and mental stress to the unmarried woman who really has done no wrong.

A student in the classroom being the target of a fradulent lecturer who had decided to mentally cause her stress because she is refusing his sexual advance.

 A toddler at school being the target of ridicule and harsh treatments because the teacher is envious of his family's wealth and togetherness.

A male student being the target of bad boys, simply because of his Lifestyle and seriousness with his studies and refusal to do as they wish.

Racism.... A crime beyond any human comprehension. The greatest crime of all. This is not because they are God's creations, but because they are proudly wearing their skin colors, from my observation, totally a happy population, with or without finances, and rarely in trouble.

 These are the reasons some men sends their neighbors ....... Six feet.

Try, fellow readers to....... Love the neighbor as thyself.

THE GAINS AND LOSSES OF THE ABSENCE OF MR PRESIDENT: BY UWAKWE ROLAND.

President Muhammadu Buhari has been absent from duty since the last few months on a purported medical checkup in London. Good a thing he legally transferred power to the Vice President who is now the acting President, this is unlike the imbroglio that played out during Yar’adua’s time when the National Assembly had to invoke the doctrine of necessity so as to effectively transfer power to then Vice President Goodluck Jonathan. The problem is that even as an acting President, Yemi Osinbanjo has limited powers to fully assume responsibility as the commander in chief, this is because most of the big government functionaries may still owe their loyalty to Mr President, couple with this, Buhari appointed people of his like minds who may not comfortably work with the acting President that will want to bring his knowledge of law and practice into governance. Hence the long absence of Mr President may eventually result to a slow down of democratic dividends. The above ...

GETTING MARRIED AND BEING SUCCESSFUL AFTER 30

Many people see the big 3.0 as a landmark age. To them at 30 you should have accomplished all your goals, gotten married and had a few kids. This view although popular is sometimes unhealthy , because real success and achievements take time. Not everyone who is unmarried at 30 will marry late or unaccomplished at 30 is a failure. For short term goals and minimal achievements, 30 is fine. I even read about someone bragging on how she had a masters degree and was married with two kids at 30. The question no one asked her was 'what had she done with the masters degree and how her children were faring academically? ' It's not enough to get married and have kids before 30 or even finish a masters degree? Is she fulfilled as a person? Had she discovered purpose and was she on her way to fulfilling it? You see we all want to brag when it seems as if we better than the next person. Alas! Many of us are ignorant. Many Nigerian billionaires became billionaires only after 30, many ...
