Akwụkwọ na-atọ ụtọ, mana ihe na-anaghi atọ ụtọ bụ mgbe onye-nkuzi gi nyere gi otu ọrụ ga-eme k'ujọ siri ike baa gi n'ahụ.

The Joker: We're Laughing Our Way to Death

Joaquinn Phoenix stars as The Joker (2019) If you haven't heard about The Joker, then let me be the first to welcome you back from the bottom of the ocean. The Joker is a thrilling thought-provoking theatrical typhoon of a movie. It's the story of Arthur Fleck, a mentally troubled man oppressed by the disregard, and even contempt, of Gotham City (America) towards 'nobody's' like him. One of his mental illnesses makes him laugh uncontrollably at inappropriate times. Arthur tries to turn this lemon into lemonade by making it as a professional clown. But he ends up being treated like a social clown; he becomes the comedian that everyone thinks is a joke. Then he decided to switch things up. He chose to deliver a punchline so funny, that only he would understand; for the first time the joke would be on society. And this was it (video below *viewer discretion is advised*) The scene is a jolter isn't it? Joaquinn Phoenix surely earned his Oscar! (...

#EndSars: The Message You Deserve

Dear Nigerians, Taking a cue from the new 'he-who-shall-not-be-named', I would like to begin this open letter to you all by saying that it has become necessary for you to receive the message you deserve, for your hearts to be soothed, and your hope restored. The events of the past two weeks that culminated in the #LagosMassacre, especially at Lekki toll gate have been met with varied reactions: grief and despair by those who understood the essence of the #EndSars movement, but smug indifference and victim-blaming by those who did not care for the disruption of their routine. Firstly, let it be known that in the history of this millennium there has been no movement of such magnitude initiated, managed, and peacefully maintained by a decentralized online mobilization of youth, aside from ours. When else has it occurred that over a thousand young people trekked 32km--nearly thrice the length of the longest bridge in Africa--to Akwuzu in honor of all the young people whose promisin...

Not Supposed To Be Here: A Review

Never in the history of the world has the cry of one child for his mother been heard on every continent, nor caused a movement equally as widespread, until George Floyd's strangled 'mama' latched on the ears of the world and refused to let go. The protests have been powerful. The experience, epic. But conversations, clashing. Then this short film by Katung Aduwak and Jojo Silla, titled 'Not Supposed To Be Here' comes along with a ribbon and ties everything up into an interesting bouquet of ideas. Our timelines have been full of them: should we be trending #BlackLivesMatter vs #AllLivesMatter? Is Donald Trump's presence in the White House enabling racial violence?  Should white people be begging for forgiveness for slavery? Isn't violence during protests a reaffirmation of racial stereotypes? Isn't hating white people racism too? Katung and Jojo take the ideas underscoring these conversations and make them grow on the screen through animation and compell...
