Don't let the political situation in Kenya deter you from carrying on with your lives..Kenya can hardly get out of hand like elsewhere in Africa..We don't have factions struggling for power & never had nor do we have demands for secession..It is only demonstrations to keep our government inchecks, that's it... I'm a duo citizen both Kenyan & the US, I'm not in any way panicky of the current situation because I understand it pretty well.. The situation will definitely calm down, Kenyans cannot withstand long periods of political upheaval.. And also you need to count yourselves lucky for witnessing forehand how Africans act when we're displeased with our governments. Ooops! Kenya is much different from other African nations...People in Kenya are far more freer..It is a nation founded upon resistance all the way from the 1800s when colonizers set in to colonize us to the Mau Mau rebellion of the 1950s. God Bless Kenya 🇰🇪
Even those African countries that seem to be "peaceful" are not at peace. People ought to know that there are countries in Africa that cannot even criticize their governments, so they seem peaceful but with very unhappy citizens. The fact that Kenyans are rising up does not make it unstable. Kenya will come out stronger.
Times like this is when to say and contextualize the famous Kenyan mantra of HAKUNA MATATA! No worries!The country is in a renewal mode and the ongoings are the inevitable birth pangs that will soon fade away as we cherish the resultant product. Unlike the falling superpower hanging on the brinks where things can only get worse, Kenya is on the upward trajectory for greatness. The elites will try to resist the inevitable coming change but they're outnumbered and outwitted. Kenya and Africa is the only safe refuge and abode for our people.
There is no perfect place. One must find a place which works best for them which is good advice. I found two places that work really well for me. We can see how a place can be amazingly perfect one minute and chaos the next, there is no perfect place but the thing to do is just find a happy medium. People are aware that we are in a transitional point in life as an individual and also collectively. We must see what that individual settling of karma is and settle it peacefully and keep it moving, so when the collective karma hits we will have that “peace within ourselves to handle the BIG transitional period, as you both shared very eloquently. Keep the “Love Bubbling” that is what we will need at that “time”. Salaam❤
I love the view and sound of the pool…very peaceful. Mr. Muhammad broke everything down solidly. Very lit 🔥 perspective.

Kenyans are very political, they are fascinated and disappointed with politics at the same time. Our biggest drawback is that often it is tribally inclined but I feel like we are shedding the tribal sentiment from politics and holding our leaders accountable regardless of tribe. Politicians often use their tribes to rally support when they are cornered. But the so-called Gen Z protests seems to have turned the tide because it had no tribal connotations and politicians have been surprised by it. I think the President has rightly been jolted and to be fair to him he seems to have taken note and he's making changes on the whole governance issues, corruption etc. Kenyans are largely peaceful, patriotic and united save for political differences during elections time but we might have turned the corner if the latest protests are anything to go by. Rest easy, we will never allow our country to go to the dogs on account of politics, we love our country too much to allow such to happen.
You don't run from or run around looking for a "safe place". You make safe places!! No place is perfect but if you want things to be better, then your presence and contribution should be a part of that betterment.
As sallam alaikum, I love how you broke down the complexities of both American elections and African uprisings, and the impact they have on Black communities. Your insights are invaluable, and I appreciate your passion for sparking important conversations. Keep sharing your voice and perspectives - it's crucial for creating a more just and equitable world for all! ❤️
Great conversation. The US election is concerning especially a possible Trump presidency and the recent Supreme Court rulings are concerning. A very fascinating social movement arising in Kenya to hold the government accountable for campaign promises and governance. It will calm down as Ruto must clean up how he has been governing. We are witnessing history. But I agree that there is a global anxiety about our systems and how they treat people. Do what is best for you. So many places to call home and Kenya is one I love and will always call home. Asante!
Dumb and Dumber😂😂I love that!!! No country will be perfect but we should go where we are treated the best! Mexico just had their election as well and we are proud of them for electing their first female president.
Hey Family, Thanks for sharing your feelings. While watching this, I heard a voice saying, "Remember who you are". . . And immediately thought about the FBA/ADOS history and resilience of your predecessors. Africa should be a good place to help you remember who you are. Please stay. We are praying and preparing for the second exodus. APTTMH - You are the Pioneers! Tuning in South Africa.

I am a Nigerian . What is happening in Kenya is nothing new . Uprisings have been happening in every African country since the 1950s/ 1960s when most African countries got independence . In Nigeria we had a civil war that resulted in the death of one million Igbos , followed by 5 military coups which took place up until 1993!!! There have been civil wars in Liberia , Sierra Leone, Sudan , Congo to name a few ! Civil wars , Military Coups, Genocides ,unrest, prejudicial killings have been the history of Africa since Independence . The advantage you have is you are Americans and when TSHTF the American government will send in the US marines to air lift you out of wherever you are!. Believe me no African government cares about its citizens to rescue them from anywhere !!!
