This is Brazil, Anita is a known global celebrity openly celebrating and eulogising Èṣù, Ọ̀làọ̀ròyè, yet the very people whose ancestors gave birth to this culture are busy demonising it. You have been conditioned to believe that Èṣù represents the devil. If Yoruba people who grew up among Europeans could recognise the importance of this Òrìṣà and fight to preserve their cultural heritage, what excuse do those of us living here have? We cannot continue treating our culture as inferior just to appease foreign religions that were historically used as instruments of conquest, enslavement and exploitation against our ancestors. When will Africa truly become African again? You can read the Quran, which contains teachings you may find difficult to reconcile with modern human values, and still regard it as sacred. You can read the Bible, engage with passages that reflect historical misogyny and the acceptance of slavery, and still call it holy. So what exactly has our traditional faith done to deserve being labelled demonic? Yoruba traditional religion has its own history, philosophy, moral principles, cosmology and spiritual practices. Why should we automatically condemn it using standards that we rarely apply with the same intensity to foreign religions? This is a question both you and I must answer. You are African. You can never be more Muslim than the Arab, just as you can never be more Christian than the European. But you can certainly be African without being ashamed of your identity. Embracing our indigenous heritage does not require us to abandon our personal religious beliefs. It requires us to stop treating our own history, spirituality and civilisation as something inferior. Africa must learn to appreciate itself.

exaltar os vídeos do ibama acabando com o garimpo ilegal não é suficiente, isso daqui é emocionante demais 🥹

E no fim das contas, toda essa polêmica poderia ter sido evitada se o bendito médico tivesse feito seu trabalho quietinho, sem espetacularizar por aqui. É o preço que se paga por tratar um tema tão sensível agindo como uma gay de twitter e não como um médico.

Finalmente chegou nas ciências sociais, posso falar!!!!! Uso de drogas ilícitas sem ser rechaçado pelo aparato punitivo estatal é privilégio de raça e classe! Muito bonita essa onda de redução de danos, but Kim there are literally people that are dying
