Nilihudhuria 70th (1992) birthday ya Mwalimu. Sikumbuki alipewa zawadi yoyote. Hata kukata keki alifanya kwa mzaha. Alipokuwa anaondoka, mama mmoja kampa portrait yake aliyechora mama huyo mwenyewe. Akamambia msaidizi wake apokee. Zawadi ya Benz kwa Mzee wetu ikanishtua kidogo.

Kwani uchifu ni utamaduni wetu? Makabila mengi hawakuwa na wachifu. Waliwekwa na wakoloni kwa maslahi yao (km Wazanaki). Uchifu ulipigwa marufuku na sheria mnamo 1962. Machifu waliyokuwepo (km Adam Sapi, Fundikira, Kunambi nk) waliingizwa Serikalini katika nyadhifa mbalimbali.

Uhuru wa kujieleza ni haki ya msingi kwa sababu ni msingi wa uhuru wa binadamu. Ukimyamazisha mtu kujieleza ni kudharau utu wa binadamu. Kama kupumua ni dalili ya uhai Basi kujieleza ni dalili ya utu.

Read politicians’ autobio with a pinch of salt. They’re often self-justifications. Mwalimu didn’t write one. He didn’t want to judge himself. He left it to the posterity. He only wished they would be fair. Intellectual that he was, I guess, he wouldn’t have liked a hagiography.

trees that are strong&steady that stand upright&unbending that weather storms&hurricanes loggers hate them most for they need many cuts from different angles&of varied depths before they fall and are chopped off branch by branch when one of them is felled indeed it’s a ssad day

Unaweza kulizima wazo-pingamizi kwa mabavu na vitisho lakini kamwe huwezi kulizika. Uhai wa mwili wa binadamu ni chakula; uhai wa bongo la binadamu ni fikra. Fikra hazi shughulikiwi kwa vitisho bali kwa hoja tu. via @academia

2) Hatimaye korosho zinunuliwe na ushirika wa wakulima wenyewe na kiwanda kimilikiwe na ushirika; ushirika ambao unathibitiwa na wakulima wenyewe. Na hatimaye tuwe na benki ya ushirika ambao utakuwa na hisa za serikali na ushirika. Co-operative benki ndio itakuwa inatoa mikopo.

Tupaze sauti. Utwaaji wa ardhi ya vijiji kiholela au kwa fidia ndogo sio haki wala utu. Taratibu za kisheria na haki za kikatiba lazima zifuatwe. Uwekezaji hauwezi kuhalalisha uvunjaji wa haki za wananchi. Maslahi ya wananchi yana kipaumbele kuliko ya wawekezaji.

The settler colony, Israel, is massacring Gazans with impunity shielded by another powerful settler colony, US. Just as settlers in the US almost wiped off original inhabitants (so-called Indians)from the face of the earth, so are Zionist settlers bent on wiping off Palestinians.

Kila mara nikisikia neno “private sector” (sekta binafsi), najiuliza: Kwani wakulima na wafugaji sio private sector? Sote tunajua wanaotumia neno hilo hawamaanishi wakulima/wafugaji. Wanachomaanisha ni wawekezaji, sio wazalishaji.

Huko nje wanatamba na economic DIPLOMACY;nyumbani wanafanya economic DESTRUCTION ya wavujajasho. Maswali:(1) Kwanini vijana wa 14-25 wanahamia mijini. Sababu vijijini wamekosa ardhi; ardhi wanapewa wawekezaji. kilimo hakilipi kwa sababu wakulima wananyonywa kupita kiasi.

Mwalimu alituasa wakombozi wa wakulima na wafanyakazi ni wao wenyewe. Sasa tunahubiriwa wakombozi wa Tanzania (neno wakulima-wafanyakazi limefutwa) ni wawekezaji. Sasa swali langu, mimi mwanafunzi makini, ni: je wavujajasho watakuwa wanafanya shughuli gani wakati wanakombolewa?
