#WeAreHereBecauseYouWereThere
Right wingers still chanting “East can’t meet West”… bit late now, colonial has‑beens. Shut up and sit down! #WeAreHereBecauseYouWereThere
My grandfather, the only son still alive of the King of Nkol Meyang after WW2, young medical genius, punished by the coloniser for refusing to come to die as a soldier, like his 4 older brothers so Europe could be liberated from the Nazis. #incalculabledamage #weareherebecauseyouwerethere
