England, In The Age Of Brexit, Is As Violently And Virulently Racist As Ever.

The events of Sunday and Monday fully confirm what we Black Brits have always known; when we win, we are English, but when we lose, we are monkeys, who should be sent back to our respective jungles. — In the last four weeks, over the course of the recently completed European football championships, I wrote a number of articles examining white working class stupidity, its endless attachment to the myth of English exceptionalism, and the notion of the island race, which has never been conquered by external forces.

The Poorest in Society are Not Worth Saving.

Despite the yawning chasm between the haves and have nots and the perpetual gaslighting of the poorest in our midst, why do the poor keep voting against their interests?

Barack Obama: A Promised Land Review

In William Edward Burghardt Du Bois’ magnum opus, the souls of Blackfolk, the preeminent African American scholar of the 20th century, writes of a double consciousness, the sense of always looking at one’s self through the eyes of others, of measuring one’s soul by the tape of the world…

The greatest book ever written on Oratory.

Ever Since I had a debating contest at the Speakers’ corner in Hyde park, London in January 2011, I have had the privilege of reading several books by a number of classical authors on the subject of rhetoric and oratory at the British Library. After my performance (handily won by…

Does India Have a Problem With Women?

Or is it a global malaise? You will have seen the images by now. A young woman was beaten to death after turning down a man’s advances. It is almost hard to decide whether the violence against the defenseless woman was more stomach churning than the folks who walked on…

Milton Friedman: How Should we Evaluate The Man Responsible For The Worst Ever Idea Unleashed Upon Humanity?

Please read on… The ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed, the world is ruled by little else. Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influences, are usually…

Britain’s Death Has Been a Hundred and Fifty Years In The Making…

And America isn’t learning the harsh lessons from its former colonial master. As writers, there are times when you are forced to concede that your work is markedly inferior to someone else’s. And that point, for me, was a few days ago. I read an extraordinarily brilliant article on the…

Kissinger at 100: How Should We Evaluate The Legacy of One of The Most Destructive Humans Ever?

My two cents on the oldest living war criminal Henry Kissinger turns 100 today. Long after his contemporaries at Harvard and the White House have faded from view and into the recess of history, the old bugger is very much here with us and still being talked about as ever. …

Tina Turner’s View on Africans Makes It Extremely Hard For Me To Mourn Her.

Yet another reason to avoid deifying celebrities and see them for what they truly are. Yesterday, the passing of one of the most outstanding musicians of the 20th century was announced. And the outpouring of grief was perfectly understandable. Not very many artists get to reinvent themselves through the decades…

It’s time for a radical inquisition. Vinicius junior is one of the best soccer players in the world. And what’s more, he plys his trade at the biggest club team around — Real Madrid. Real Madrid’s trophy cabinet is the stuff of great envy as it has won every honour…
