In the movie Beyond Mombasa, Missionary Ralph Hoyt, who by his own admission has not even been to Theology school, goes to great length to stop his fellow white expatriates from establishing a mining business in the coast of Kenya. He fears that exposure to Western capitalism will corrupt the minds of the indigenous Africans and thus make them less attentive to him.

Who are the white people today who fetishize Africa's poverty and use it to re-imagine and re-shape us as they wish?

March is awareness month.
One of the lessons that I have learned from experiencing ataxic cerebral palsy is that time and chance happen to just about everyone. It's easy to get discouraged when things don't work out. But hold on, hold forth, hold fast; patience is genius. Your time and chance will happen.

Are you a Kenyan disabled person registered with the National Council for Persons with Disabilities? How has your registration benefited you?
The author of this article concludes by suggesting that Stephen Ndichu's woes are partly due to his not being registered with the Council.

Ndichu hopes to raise about Sh300,000 for a prosthetic leg after digging people's farms for 2,000 days.
