Pride Parades for countries like Uganda

Image
So several people have asked me why we still have pride marches or parades, why do we still fight for it? In all honesty, I always reply "The fight isn't over, we are but in the midst of it all". Out of the 195 countries in the world, about 28 of the countries accept gay-marriages. That's 14,3% of governments globally. The rest of the 167 countries consider being part of the community a crime. In most of these countries it is a crime punishable by death. So, ask me that question again?

Imagine it is a crime to be fearlessly authentic. Imagine that, I don't know about you but that doesn't sound like how life should like be at all. "Be yourself", "Love thy neighbor as thyself", "Love is a beautiful thing, embrace it" and many more are phr...

Due to the pollutants being released into the air thus forcing use to inhale this pollutants into our system. As anyone would of guessed it is not good for our bodies and are extremely harmful.

Millions of people are forced to inhale all of that every day. Pollutants are expected to aggravate heart disease and inflammation, nerve disorder and even cancer.  CNN reports  there's been a spike in the number of breathing problems and hospitalizations among children in Brazil. Children are among the first to be affected due to their developing bodies. In May and June about 5 000 children were hospitalized for each month. That's 10 000 children in 2 months of the fire burning. Imagine Jul...

The Future is Not Female

Feminism slogan, The Future is Female, is extremely problematic. Like are females just gonna ignore like.. the rest of the population... With all due respect the slogan gotta go. I am not disagreeing on the Feminism movement as a whole, but I am strongly disagreeing on the slogan. Originally, I believe, the slogan was created by a Feminist who wanted to be apologetically a Female. They, too, thrive for equality. However, according to the  Sociology Dictionary  the definitions of Feminism is; 1. (noun) The idea that women and men should have equal legal and political rights, sexual autonomy, and self-determination (agency). 2. (noun) A social movement that advocates for economic, political, and social equality between women and men. 3. (noun) A theoretical perspective stating women are uniquely and systematically oppressed and that challenges ideas of gender and sex roles. All 3 definitions come down to one single word, equality. The feminism movement is one that fro...
