[QUOTE]Originally posted by kikuyu22: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by kikuyu22: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by kikuyu22: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [qb] South Africa has the largest wealth gap in the world and most of the population is in poverty. And since blacks are the majority of the population, that means that the majority of the people in poverty in South Africa and the rest of Africa are black. As a matter of fact, most Africans period live in poverty, not just in Africa but around the world. So that is quite a few hundred million people. In America, blacks make up a large percentage of the poorest population even though they are a minority. Same in South America, Jamaica, Haiti, Central America and everywhere else. All of this is a legacy of historic white supremacy, colonialism and the slave trade. [QUOTE] A government study has shown more than half of the people in South Africa live in poverty. The survey, which is the latest to be conducted by the government's statistics agency but dates back to 2009, shows that South Africa is one of the most unequal countries in the world. And the first census done in a decade indicates that white South Africans still take home six times more pay than their black compatriots - nearly two decades after the end of apartheid. The reports come at a difficult time for the South African president, Jacob Zuma, who is fighting to be re-elected as leader of the ruling ANC party. The outcome of that vote will determine who leads the party into the next election - and therefore who'll likely be the South African president until 2019. The reports show the country's black middle class is growing fast. It's now the same size as the white South African middle class, helped by the country's employment laws which were drawn up to redress decades of inequality and unfairness by previous white regimes. [/QUOTE] http://news.sky.com/story/1026884/south-africa-poverty-survey-shows-slow-progress Dont let those numbers fool you. That middle class is just simply a bunch of wage slaves token negroes who are happy to get a bigger check from the same white slave master and colonist who formerly used their ancestors as dog food. As long as they get a check, whatever happened before doesn't matter....

This is the ONLY place blacks were supposed to live at for the last 200 years. And this is no different from anywhere else in Africa or South America or the Carribean where black folks live at. But don't worry..... white people love you and want to help.

And black folks STILL believe they really want to help them... after robbing them for over 200 years... LOL!)Kenyans should be embarrassed that they allow these people to pull such nonsense scams. As if Africans cant build their own one room mud hut/tin shack with a chalk board..... Seriously this isn't "help". They are supposed to be building real schools with electricity and everything else, but what do you expect when you turn the crook into your savior? Oh but that's right, this school and all these other schools are built just for that, to teach you how to love a white savior.... Jesus Christ.

The pursuit of academic excellence is at the center of our educational philosophy and approach. Equally, as a global member of the Round Square association of schools worldwide, we believe that a school should foster courage, generosity, imagination, principle and resolve so that children emerge empowered with the skills and abilities to be the leaders and guardians of tomorrow’s world. We endeavour to provide the security and guidance necessary for children to achieve their potential in a friendly and supportive but academically rigorous atmosphere. As such we commit ourselves to the Round Square ethos by considering the six foundation pillars of Round Square as central to our holistic approach to education, augmenting our intrinsic commitment to academic excellence. The six pillars or IDEALS are: Internationalism; Democracy; Environment; Adventure; Leadership and Service. [/QUOTE][/qb][/QUOTE][/qb][/QUOTE]DougM,I get the impression you have an agenda but its time for some truth-hold on! Brookehouse isn't whites only! Its among a number of high cost private schools dominated by black Kenyans. Kibera,til the early 80s was actually a lower class estate for artisans,tradesmen and poorer rural immigrants searching for such jobs. When the IMF/WB insisted on brutalitarian SAPs,which are slashed social spending and total removal of all subsidies a few years later the population exploded. More and more rural poor migrated in search of fewer and fewer Nairobi jobs leading to the Kibera of today. On the subject of housing how many white US middle class are now homeless living in their cars? [/qb][/QUOTE]Man, some people are just determined to be stupid and I mean stupid. After 200 years of colonization and racism AROUND THE WORLD these fools still sit up here and want to say that the fact that blacks are on the bottom EVERYWHERE is somehow NATURAL. Why on earth are black folks so DAMNED DESPERATE to pretend not to be the chicken that is for dinner? And you talk about Osiris and don't know what it means...... Anyway, KIBERA SLUM was created by the British in Kenya the same way ALL THE SLUMS IN AFRICA were created, because they kicked the Africans OFF their lands and forced them to live in SQUATTER CAMPS on the outskirts of the major SEGREGATED CITIES built by the whites. This is what happened in South Africa, Kenya, Uganda, Zimbabwe and everywhere else that white folks colonized. Do you SERIOUSLY think that these SHANTY TOWNS just came about on their own recently? Hell no. I wish black people would read some books and stop trying to pretend SO DAMNED HARD that they are "equal" to everybody else when they are the ones on the very bottom in most cases.

Further, after independence, the legacy of these policies continues. During the early colonial period, Nairobi was based on the British concept of the garden city whose sprawl would be limited. Under a segregationist administration, high-ranking government officials and other Europeans settled to the north and west of the city in areas such as Kileleshwa, Lavington and Westlands (Upper Nairobi) and on larger tracts of land in Karen, Kikuyu and Limuru. Parklands, Pangani and Eastleigh as well as areas to the south were designated as “Asian”. Africans were relegated to the eastern side of the city in the neighbourhoods we now know as Shauri Moyo, Kaloleni, Bahati, Jericho and Dandora. Under pressure from the influx of landless Africans from rural areas, the colonial government discouraged large-scale middle and low-income housing developments hoping to stem the flow. Consequently, between 1900 and 1920, almost all Africans in Nairobi were squatters. Inhabitants of the older slums serviced the homes, farms and shops of the more affluent, often as day labourers. However, in 1923, Pumwani was established as an African location to accommodate migrants from the rural areas. . What is striking about Nairobi is how stable our space allocation has remained despite the fact that its origins were distorted. According to the 1969 census, 73 per cent of Africans lived in Eastlands, 82 per cent of Asians in the Asian zones and 82 per cent of Europeans in former European settlement areas. Over time, of course, better-educated and higher-income Africans, and many public officials, moved on to the more spacious parcels of Upper Nairobi. But the disproportionate consumption of urban space by the affluent remained. As late as 1980, upper Nairobi supported only 2-25 people per hectare while Parklands, Eastleigh and Nairobi South, the historically Asian areas, had 30 to 40 people. Eastlands, by contrast, supported 50 to 300 people per hectare. Meanwhile, following a growth spurt of 200 per cent between 1969 and 1979, slums supported densities of 1250 people per hectare which by 1992, had increased to 2000 people. Today, informal settlements with more than 55 percent of Nairobi’s population occupy just over five percent of its land. [/QUOTE] http://www.businessdailyafrica.com/Opinion-and-Analysis/-/539548/569856/-/view/printVersion/-/119j150/-/index.html And quiet as its kept, whites(british) and asians STILL CONTROL MOST of Kenya's economy, just like the British and Dutch STILL control South Africa's economy, including Zimbabwe and PRETTY MUCH MOST of the rest of Africa. But some clowns just are DESPERATE to try and pretend otherwise. [QUOTE] In a feature story published Thursday, Daily Nation highlighted the complexity of the colonial legacy that exists in many African cities. While British colonists – John Ainsworth in particular – are recognised as the builders of Nairobi, the regime was premised on a highly exploitative relationship with locals. As a chief administrator in the colonial government, Ainsworth was designated to build a town around the railway stop on the line from Mombasa to Kampala. What was once an ordinary railway stop is now the thriving city of Nairobi. Ainsworth, during his eight years in power, was certainly innovative, having successfully cleared much of the swamp on which the city is built, using Tasmanian Blue Gum trees that soaked up water while beautifying the town. He was undeniably successful in building a city where one did not previously exist. However, Ainsworth pioneered the idea of segregation in the town plan of Nairobi, dividing the town into seven sections and demarcating 'native reserves.' Daily Nation contends: "in fact, Ainsworth was responsible for the initial demarcation of Nairobi, even though his idea of delineation would eventually lead scholars to identify colonial Kenya with an apartheid system of settlement and administration." He demarcated "the Railway Centre, Indian Bazaar, Railway Quarters, European Business and Administration Centre, Dhobi Quarters, European Residential Areas, and the Military Barracks. Africans (apart from those working for the Railways) were left to fend for themselves on the east side of town. He did not even include them in the overall town plan, which goes some distance in explaining why that sector of the city now known as Eastlands is filled with sprawling, unplanned informal settlements."[/QUOTE] http://urbanafrica.net/news/2013/04/08/look-nairobis-apartheid-history Bottom line, the reason Africans live in shacks on the outskirts of big ultra rich white cities in Africa is because that is how the white folks wanted Africans to live, permanently. And the coon behind clown black face governments are only there to maintain the status quo and not change it. It is as obvious to anyone with eyes on their face but of course Africans love everybody but themselves and wont admit it. [/qb][/QUOTE]No. We're not determined to be stupid. Living here we see a reality you can't see beyond MSM disinfo. For example you mentioned flower exporters? Kenya is a world leader in not just in exports but in the small scale contribution. http://www.academia.edu/3277127/LEARNING_TO_EXPORT_BUILDING_FARMERSCAPABILITIES_THROUGH_PARTNERSHIPS_IN_KENYAS_FLOWER_INDUSTRY Uganda,Columbia and Ecuador HAVE NIL SMALL SCALE FLOWER FARMER CONTRIBUTION. Not all large scale farmers are white,btw I know several locals. [/QB][/QUOTE]
