slavery
It's been a very long time , in fact years since slavery was abolished but Africans never let go and I don't understand , I feel their reasons are also not valid , so I visited a pal from Africa and were conversing until he changed to whole topic saying Africans were really lacking so I asked his reasons and he said some Africans in fact more of the population in Africa still uses foreign names and still seek for loan from them for developmental purposes I feel he has a point but I don't see why. I felt I was winning this until he raised the most trickery and shocking question when he asked me "so what happens to his culture" ? to be honest I was amazed, at that moment I felt he was a different person he spoke so emotional . Again with all the stubbornness in the world I asked him "without colonization would you have known the bible ? he was speechless and it made me feel like I've won a lottery until he raised the batter trade issue and I really got on the same side with him ,during the slavery era stuffs like mirror , gun powder etc. were brought into the country for valuable stuffs like gold ,salt, pepper etc. with this problem he bought me on his side and forcefully had to accept the fact that whatever he says is right I had to do that to make him feel he knows better . Coming to understand him I understood what he meant when he said Africans were still under slavery he only wanted the Africans to make use of their clans names I hope he bought you also seeking help is not a problem I feel the the bond between these countries are amazing ,A long time ago there lived a poor slave whose name was Aesop. He was a small man with a large head and long arms. His face was white, but very homely. His large eyes were bright and snappy.

Things I love about-’Is Love The Answer’ by Uta Isaki
This is my first ‘book club’ challenge. I know it might be odd for some viewers. It’s a graphic or an illustrated novel, like a comic book, but not a literary novel. It's one of the best coming-of-age stories that I highly recommend for Aromantic/Asexual Pride. I know it's not a hundred percent transformation. But, it's one of the best books to know that I'm not alone.

Sailing the Seas of Life
Life comes with many twists and turns over its rough seas. Whatever way I went, a challenge was always present. Life was never simple, but maybe I did not listen to my parents enough about that. I return to one of the books I read between middle and high school. It is a classic, but the adventure still lives on in my life.

Many of Books
Before the age of 18, I had read many of books. I always avoided reading about vampires and werewolves, I only liked watching about stuff like that but not reading it. You know, because I could always close my eyes or something on the parts I didn't want to see. You can't do that when you read books, or you might miss important details. Well now there's audiobooks, so if I was in my teens or tweens now and wanted to avoid reading gruesome things... I'd be alright. This book wasn't gruesome though. It made me and every person who didn't love the harshnish of the sifi world, all the time, into die hard vampire and werewolf lovers. We either wanted to be a vamper in a beautiful way or wanted to marry one.
