  • Though he died almost four decades ago, Haile Selassie's legacy remains strong and valid.
    "Faces of Africa" sought to unearth the events and memories of the man who dared to confront The League of Nations, now UN, pleading for their support in conquering the Italians who were preparing to attack Ethiopia.

    I am a Greek who loves Ethiopia and Emperor Haile Selassie. Ethiopia became the comforting home of so many Greeks escaping Ottoman Turkish rule, and the Emperor took special care to accommodate his Greek subjects. The Ethiopian people have always expressed nothing less than the utmost kindness and warmth toward their Greek neighbors.

Having costly parties, drinking champagne even feeding his dogs with fine beef the same time not far from his palace kids walked The Street with biafra stormach. Its was more important for him to live in lyxury and killing anyone Who was a threath to his total power. Do You really think this man deserves respect? People need to know this! He was a dictator.

      He was one of the worst Leaders Ethiopia has known:
      1. He didn't allow a Parlament, which made him a Dictator.
      2. He exported too much, because of this the civilians would have nothing.
      3. He didn't allow Freedom of Press and Speech, Protests were most of the time suppressed.
      4. He brutally suppressed Ethnic Nationalism, through plunderings and massacres.
      5. He didn't allow other languages than Amharic to be taught in school.
      6. He fucked the Education in Ethiopia since at the end of his reign (40 years) only 25% of the population could read and write.
      7. His Economy relied on Slavery (Haile Selassie being a Hypocrite at best).
      8. His Economy relied on Farmers (who made 80% of the population) who were heavily taxed by their Landlords, which lead to debts and loss of land, which would lead to poverty.
      9. He covered the Famines in Northern Ethiopia which killed in total 200,000 civilians.

    • @Southforthewinter
      @Southforthewinter 4 роки тому

      Joepie De poepie having common ancestors doesn’t mean you’re the same or have the dam origins...for all I know Caucasians we’re genetically modified and who ever did it failed to replicate the melanin required to protect themselves from UV rays. I look at humans like big cats. You have lions, tigers, leopards, panthers etc. I’ve seen a half lion half tiger cub before, the reason it’s special is because nature knows it’s tribe, humans 99% of the time don’t.
      Also I’m probably wrong about the exact number but doesn’t DNA and fossils research say humans are 6 thousand years old or something like that, but we know humans have been around longer than that according to the age of curtain structures and paintings etc.
      I have no legitimate data to back this but something about the way white People operate in this world tells me their either the newest humanoid race or their a hybrid of some sort, They have somewhere between 3-8% Neanderthal DNA in them depending on each person. Africans who have no mixing in their bloodline are 100% homosapien. Just something to consider you know, i think the world would be a better place if we acknowledged our differences and embraced them all and cherish culture. Instead we have one race who forced their way to supremacy and then tells everyone else’s stories and history as if they were there for all of it.
