Racism, Tribalism & Global Politics.

in #politics6 years ago

Do they go hand in hand? To an extent I utter the phrase with great certainty 'most certainly', let's not kid ourselves its 2018 and so far racism stands boldly in grand gesture and has suddenly taken root in the seat of politics.

**I'm no herald neither do I come with news you don't already know, but let's look at certain policies of a certain president of a certain country deciding to build walls, changing immigration policies, hardening deportation criterias, a look at his advisers, a strong look at those in his party and a real scrutiny about His supporters.... Did I paint a vivid picture already? Or are we still lost? **

Let me bring you down to Nigeria where tribalism rules the day, a Man of great power turns a blind eye to the indiscriminate killings his tribesmen carry out daily but tags a group of people asking for basic freedoms as "terrorists" that's just laughable, these two groups of men I have mentioned came into the seat of power for people of their race and ethnicity alone and their policies bluntly show that.

** When would the World wake up to a notion that track record is a blueprint to what is to come or would we keep playing blind-eye-politics and risking the peace and safety of everyone at large because to be honest when you favor one side over another you create friction which in turn breeds conflict, it is guaranteed that a lot of people are going to get hurt in the end.**

Sentiments do not belong in a world like ours, call a spade a spade or dig your own grave.

Thank you for reading and do apply a bit of neutrality in your thoughts for in the end we are all equal before our Creator. Thanks again, its your boy @kingzeus
