when i was for my holiday in Fréjus in The South of France , in a Youth Hostel , in august this year a friend of mine show me a vidéo of Mallence from nearly five minuts..., and i was shocked!! Crystal really!!..., lots of Dutch , Jewish Kisses and Greeetings from Egbert in The Hague within The Netherlands...,
This really encourages me that we can succeed and be first again. I'm glad she didn't mention the three letter word! G*D! That is worst than the four letter words. Because they stole Our Goddess (Woman) and made a God (man). There are the sex changes in the bible! And what? It's written: on Our Spirit and Our Spirit is truth and real. facebook.com/urbanintellectuals/videos/10154316521239366/
This woman’s aura is just something out of this world. She is not in the business of impressing these people or awaiting their approval. Nah fam! She spoke her truth, our truth. The truth. The African truth!!!! The Lord is coming to save His people.
@@MwAfrika_Kev The country I come from doesn't relate to the discussion being raised here. I mean, check all of her claims and see if she does what she preaches...
Ever fresh... couldn't stop but imagine the "twinching" and turning of the rumbling stomach while the soft and clear Mallence was laying down the facts. She is graceful and phenomenal
if Prof. Tony Martin were heard by not only the worlds African community but the entire world... it would not take long before we all understood that we are not taught "History;" but "His Story!!" and who writes and controls it... 🙂
I am only watching this in mid 2020. Yes in the midst of the Covid-19 "stay at home" campaign. The words of this woman give me chills. She is so calm, collected and spirited in every sentence she articulated. Let us have more of the western population be invited into her ideas & understanding her perpective. She said the truth. I live in a young & progressive country with a more than 500 years history of being colonies 4 major powers of the past & present. No doubt that we are doing a whole lot better than Sierra Leone, there remains elements in society & nature are not in place as they should have been. The west continue to dictate what is good & what is bad according to their perpective; lots of times without regard to our domestic situation. Well done Mallence !
XTRABIG you are not alone in your category , being overwhelmed by an indoctrinated mindset of indifference , which unfortunately you will never be able to wean yourself off , if even the next breath you take depends on it. I guess you have been used to hearing from misguided black folks who are appreciative for their eurocentric brainwash. Thus Mallence's deviation from that clouded judgement got you emotionally rattled.
This presentation by Mallence is truly timeless. Her message, tone of voice, and body language is captivating. You're a gift to Africa, Mallence Bart-Williams.
I was unimpressed by the presentation. She spoke in generalities and didn't touch on the African continents responsibility for it's situation. "gift to Africa"? She was born in Germany and studied in Europe.
This is my favourite Ted Talk of all time. Been coming back to this video since it came out and have never seen anything like it before. Such calm power. Not a word or moment wasted throughout the speech. The way you can hear a pin fall throughout the room, and the tension making some in the room restless on their sits. I can never get enough of it.
I agree. But if so many feel so threatened by just the idea of real history being taught to the point of whitewashing it and banning certain aspects of it from schools, they’ll surely ban this.
@@clearercarton If it was untrue or is untrue then explain the looks on there faces as she runs it down on them. She’s not lying, she produced evidence.
I read White fear in the comments. As I restate this!!! This need to be heard in schools, Churches, Homes, blaring out of the car speaking. She’s a Diamond Expert but she’s lying!!!! Time reveals all truths and that is doing, Blood Diamonds, maybe it’s time these young Blacks don’t show up to get the stones then what?
“ I Come from the Richest Country in the World 🌎 it’s location in the richest Continent of the world 🌎. In the West my Country is called Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 “. On the surfest we are bless with infinite beauty and an aboundant of flora and fauna ..I admired how she spoke that with such authority..
She says the first university in the world was in Timbuktu and the second in sierra Leon,how did this change till today Africans move abroad to study and others still can't read or write ?
You can tell she’s not an American Woman. The tone of her voice and the information she disclosed is priceless knowledge. To bad the Blacks and the African Americans can’t see their way out of the nonsense in their communities across America. Something is wrong with Our people here in America. This lady has the correct formula for the success of her people in Africa.
That's it!!! Am going back home to Africa. We are the solutions not the problems. People of AFRICA all over the world. Let us rise up and go back and develop our lands. Well done my dear sister Mallence. God bless and keep you.

Because the media will not allow this kind of videos to go viral that’s why it’s not seen by everyone this should be seen by every individual on this planet
What was powerful about her presentation was the even tone and cadence in which it was delivered. One would have expected such a call for justice by a representative of a much-maligned continent to be rancorous and hectoring. She's certainly made her point. Well done!
Actually I am a lecturer in Linguistics and Translation. Every new semester I play this video for my students. When I have a meeting, conference, seminar or workshop I always watch this video. Truly it has become my motivating video. Thanks a million Mallence. ❤❤
While watching this clip, i was more concentrating on the faces and feelings of the audiences- absolutely depressed, sank in their seats, sweating and being beaten by their guilt of last 600 years
Gadaffi tried, and by causing instability among the nations, they caused us to turn against one another. The people of Libya are constantly killing one another to determine who will control the oil plants. As a result of our inability to care for ourselves and our preference for Western countries to assist us, Morocco African nation is being paid to killing thousands of Africans who are fleeing to their shores in search of a better life or sell Africans to arab countries as slaves to work them. UAE, will take your passport as soon as your arrive especially if you came from Africa and some Asian countries. They won't give you an indefinite but you will work in their gulag. These western nations do not even want us to live in their nations. As soon as we cross the sea and onto their lands they will ship you back to Rwanda haha. No wonder Rwandan president doesn't want them because they Rwanda is the new Singapore of Africa.
@@davidm7740, thank you for sharing this. It is too sad for words. I find that all across this beautiful planet of ours, those who see themselves as more worthy than the rest are always pitting people against each other to take eyes off those who are really propegating the suffering. Here in America our news is carefully screened, although Americans don't know this. We only get international news if someone here is profiting from it. I had no idea the extent of what is happening in Africa.
I am Jet Osirim from Nigeria. I am so proud of you Mallence. Just got to see your world class presentation. I believe if all African tv and radio stations can play this presentation at least once a month, things will begin to change in Africa. I love you so very much. God bless you sister.

One of the most powerful speech I have ever listened to in my entire life. Mallence is an ambassador of the black African. Brilliant, historical, and powerful speech. God bless your soul.
If our governments were doing this, where do you think Africa would be? But NO they are still looking out for whoever/WHICHEVER COUNTRY gives them money with false pretenses which they never use to educate the next generations.

Watching again after a long time... Sadness in her eyes and the way she speak. I wish i could give more than one like ❤. Huge respect for this strong woman.
This was so impactful. She spoke with such calm, confidence, and unapologetic. Makes me view those organizations begging for donations in a whole new light. Thanks you!!!
That's not true. No one but them thought to enslave Israelites and scatter them abroad. It seems like Nature will be the only thing that can stop them.
@Will Barclay This is exactly what i just said to somebody and you have just proven me right. Europeans dont know the meaning of guilt even if its burned of their forehead. They always justify their pillage, looting murders and destruction. Curse on this earth the day they appeared on the scene
Wow! I'm speechless. So much we don't know about the world outside our own. How she delivered her message without raising her voice was so powerful yet touching.

I've watched this video over and over. This woman is so inspiring; a true queen herlself. She said it all with such a grace and courage. This would definitely be a completely different world if there were more humans like this Lioness . Bless her heart and her dignity! Brilliant speech!
Wow. I was hypnotized from the very first second. Blown away by her powerful words. Enlightened by her message. Inspired by her work. Drawn to her aura. Charmed by her manner. This is a unique human being.
Dear Children of the continent painted as 'failed' - We are in a reboot phase, lets all take notes in this period and remember we have far more to offer than they have lead us to believe. Mama Afrika is weeping for the exploitation that has gone on for far too long !!
I just can't explain it. She's summarized it all. She's a gem. Indeed, we have one standing alone in what many have feared to venture in. She is my hero.

She’s brave and dared to speak the truth . I believe I can use three words to describe Mallence : integrity , respectful & honourable Well done Mallence
I LOVE THIS YOUNG AFRICAN QUEEN. I LOVE HER TONE AND FEARLESS GLANCES AT THE AUDIENCE. SHE GUARANTEES HOPE FOR AFRICA AND HER PEOPLE. GOD bless you Barlance.
Mallence, thank you for the inspiration and motivation. At 61 years, I now understand that there is more for me to do. "Sharity" is a concept I now embrace fully. Helping youth to learn how to survive and thrive one a larger scale is now my mission. Teach, my sister, teach!
One of the best TED lectures I have ever heard. Brilliant message delivered in a devastatingly blunt, mocking and at the same time in a deadpan manner. Rise Africa Rise.
Beautiful presentation, it's starting to make sense by linking this with Dr Arikana Chihombori, and by listening to the late Robert Mugabe. History is so powerful, I have listened to this many times and I am still learning, love you sis
I cried so bad in the middle of this speech I had to stop the video to make a break. It breaks my heart to hear this and how degrading it is to Africa what we’re doing for centuries … I knew most of the information she said and had an awareness … but this now just hit me again and real bad……
Chills down my spine. Her courage and her captivating voice; She is a true African Goddess with might. I feel great to have come across this in the long run and this message needs to be channeled to many.
i like how she is real smooth with it.....she is a very keen and intelligent strategist! Respect Queen! hope you will appear in the U.S. in the near future. continue the healing of the nation!
Her voice is very soothing and pretty, yet cuts me hard and deep. Her message is something I have wondered myself as well, but never truly searched for an answer. And I'm affraid its meaning fell away from those people. She feels like she can move the world with just a sentence. I would like to see a world in a thousand years and see Africa thrive and live without being robbed constantly.
Thanks for your comment I am scrolling through to see if I see any more white folks that comment on this injustice for so many years that she articulated so well well I am assuming based on your photo and how you said what you said
No my dear. She has already moved the world with her speech. Those people in that room were enraptured, they will never forget her. Something (even if miniscule) from that lesson will stay with each and every one of them. Walk in her shoes, with her melanin and then you may think differently. In order to be understood, seek to understand
You yourself said you never truly looked for the answer, well here it is, she is telling it. How many times has a woman been doubted, and yet changed the world. Otherwise we should have told Rosa Parks to sit down(no civil rights advancements) and Madame Curie to stay at home in her kitchen (No radium, no x-rays). They were the 🥇 first.
And stop guiding us to hate but guiding us to education, excellence and encouragement to use our creativity. We can spend the next 100 years talking hate but that will be concentrating on the enemy; use your energy in building up the new upcoming generations of young Africans.
Why do Europeans take the minerals?To eat them?No ,to make things. So, what will we do with the minerals when we cannot make things with them?WE NEED TO LEARN TO FIRST MAKE MACHINES TO MINE AND IT IS NOT GOING TO BE EASYGOING because the workers want their share: medical care, housing, transportation, bonuses, human resources management, salary increase etc.ARE WE RAEDY FOR THIS?
Our perception of any given situation determines the outcome. Boom drop the mic! An amazing example; I tell my daughter that the greatest gift a girl/woman has is her voice. To speak out, to not accept, to challenge , to change.
Love her cool calm and composed presentation but with razor sharp impact on the mainly white audience who are probably squirming in their seats listening to the hard truths that are being blown in their direction. Well spoken Mallence. You are a rare and exquisite African diamond yourself.
A very captivating speech. Not only does Mallence look very passionate about Sierra Leone, she looks very concerned about what the future could bring for Africa... Amazing job delivering your point of view.
There is so much sincerity, love, giftedness & consciousness screaming through you that even the comments about you have to bow to your elegance and sophistication! You bring a whole other level of meaning to Martin Luther King’s quote...”let us conduct our struggle on the high plain of discipline and dignity!” Mallence, you are proof of Sierra Leone’s riches, all by yourself! Thank you! 🙏🏽😇🌏
Lady what in the world are you talking about? Why are you invoking Martin Luther king? How about commenting on the meaning of what she's saying instead of useless flattery
Mallance is the fire that creeps in gently stinging with truth beyond. The lioness that roars with authority. She commands the attention and is truly a Gem!

Name 1 single ecosystem without a predator

The health of any given ecosystem is based on the health of their predators
Did you not hear what she said? She explained that if there is an overexploitation on a species or is overhunted, that nature will soon have to decrease the number of the predators because it offsets the balance of nature.
You just defined balance in nature, not the opposite.
She says as quoted "take the predator out", not decrease the number of, do not be naive.

TEDx not TED! TED is of higher quality.
Me too.. I am still watching in 2022
🙋🏽♀️
2024, and keep coming back to one of the most timeless TEDx presentations.
"We all know the dollar is worthless" 😂😂😂😂 gal, I couldn't have said this so calmly ...👏👏👏👏 you're special 😍😍
yes...its only backed by military power and savagery
...America is all about hypocrisy and it lives off others virtue...
ROTFLMAO! 100%! I busted out laughing!
Damn, her voice alone is killing it. And the essence, the truth that is spoken is gooolllld!
is not completely truth is victimization of a frustated individual.
Ken Valens she should have been grinning or smiling? She didn’t come to play. She did the job powerfully!
Luzitanium You are right the truth of what your country’s governments have done is MUCH worse.
What was powerful about her presentation was the even tone and cadence in which it was delivered. One would have expected such a call for justice by a representative of a much-maligned continent to be rancorous and hectoring. She's certainly made her point. Well done!
Actually I am a lecturer in Linguistics and Translation. Every new semester I play this video for my students. When I have a meeting, conference, seminar or workshop I always watch this video. Truly it has become my motivating video. Thanks a million Mallence. ❤❤
Education is a powerful thing. It can influence change, power, and mind set. Please view and pass on.
The highest level of eloquence .
I am so happy there are people like Mallence Bart-Williams in the world! ❤🌍❤
There are more like her,they just lack the platform.
Absolutely...am from subsaharan Africa and international trade lawyer...it's frustrating
Rewatching this in 2021, this woman gives me chills. I love it, we need more of her in the world.
From Namibia 🇳🇦
She gives me chills as well, she's outstanding.
From algeria too 🇩🇿

as i watching the beautiful young African Queen my tears roll dawn
While watching this clip, i was more concentrating on the faces and feelings of the audiences- absolutely depressed, sank in their seats, sweating and being beaten by their guilt of last 600 years
This is proof that one person can make a difference. We need to stop looking for leaders to fix our problems and instead be a part of the solutions.
Gadaffi tried, and by causing instability among the nations, they caused us to turn against one another. The people of Libya are constantly killing one another to determine who will control the oil plants. As a result of our inability to care for ourselves and our preference for Western countries to assist us, Morocco African nation is being paid to killing thousands of Africans who are fleeing to their shores in search of a better life or sell Africans to arab countries as slaves to work them. UAE, will take your passport as soon as your arrive especially if you came from Africa and some Asian countries. They won't give you an indefinite but you will work in their gulag. These western nations do not even want us to live in their nations. As soon as we cross the sea and onto their lands they will ship you back to Rwanda haha. No wonder Rwandan president doesn't want them because they Rwanda is the new Singapore of Africa.
@@davidm7740, thank you for sharing this. It is too sad for words. I find that all across this beautiful planet of ours, those who see themselves as more worthy than the rest are always pitting people against each other to take eyes off those who are really propegating the suffering. Here in America our news is carefully screened, although Americans don't know this. We only get international news if someone here is profiting from it. I had no idea the extent of what is happening in Africa.
I always come back to watch this clip once a year at least. So much respect for Mallence from the kingdom of Eswatini. 🇸🇿
Swaziland in the house!
Sierra leonian
@@ang78able lmao. I’m aware. I was saying I , who’s in Eswatini, have so much respect for her.
I am Jet Osirim from Nigeria. I am so proud of you Mallence. Just got to see your world class presentation. I believe if all African tv and radio stations can play this presentation at least once a month, things will begin to change in Africa. I love you so very much. God bless you sister.
What an incredible and beautiful soul. This gave me tears… always look for what’s possible.
Absolute class and intelligence. Such an inspiration. Imagine her on the UN stage. She would decimate them all.
Yes, incredible
UN is the enemy of humanity. Open your eyes!!

One of the most powerful speech I have ever listened to in my entire life. Mallence is an ambassador of the black African. Brilliant, historical, and powerful speech. God bless your soul.
You've just spoken thought without missing a comma.
If our governments were doing this, where do you think Africa would be? But NO they are still looking out for whoever/WHICHEVER COUNTRY gives them money with false pretenses which they never use to educate the next generations.

Make people aware begging you...Africa has everything to Africans🤞
Standing Ovation, Bravo!!!
why didn't everyone stand??
IDK
Kim Nswati maybe they felt a type of way about hearing the truth
+Wendy Jules Maybe
Because it's the truth and it's shameful. excellent video.
Watching this today and tears rolling down my eyes.Oh Africa!
Watching again after a long time...
Sadness in her eyes and the way she speak. I wish i could give more than one like ❤. Huge respect for this strong woman.
This was so impactful. She spoke with such calm, confidence, and unapologetic. Makes me view those organizations begging for donations in a whole new light. Thanks you!!!
You can just see how over the western world she is ....I feel you sis
Iam from Czech Republic 🇨🇿 we are eastern Europe... Western Europe and USA colonized eastern Europe too...
A true African Queen. Bold and Courageous.
@@Craigx71 why do you accept a fact if you're theif every one knows
Craigx71 and she should continue to utilize everything you listed, the resources to build the infrastructures you named come from her country.
She isn't over it. She loves the west and everything it has to offer. She has just found a way to use racial tensions to fleece people for money
The sadness, the sorrow from within her soul. And the Truth! The reality pouring out from a very painful heart! Bless you beautiful woman!
thank you Mallence, I can't undo the evils of my forebears, but I will work for freedom and love between all peoples of the Earth
Thank you!
That's not true. No one but them thought to enslave Israelites and scatter them abroad. It seems like Nature will be the only thing that can stop them.
@Will Barclay This is exactly what i just said to somebody and you have just proven me right. Europeans dont know the meaning of guilt even if its burned of their forehead. They always justify their pillage, looting murders and destruction. Curse on this earth the day they appeared on the scene
You brother are golden
@@sydneyhoward3754 yup....same way they even justify the colonialism of my country india
I'm surprised they let this go public. This is powerful beyond words. All truth!
Wow! I'm speechless. So much we don't know about the world outside our own. How she delivered her message without raising her voice was so powerful yet touching.

I've watched this video over and over. This woman is so inspiring; a true queen herlself. She said it all with such a grace and courage. This would definitely be a completely different world if there were more humans like this Lioness . Bless her heart and her dignity! Brilliant speech!
Wow. I was hypnotized from the very first second. Blown away by her powerful words. Enlightened by her message. Inspired by her work. Drawn to her aura. Charmed by her manner. This is a unique human being.
The power of her speech, persuasion, and presentation is very contagious. I love how she owns the platform from beginning to end. Such mastery!

Dear Children of the continent painted as 'failed' -
We are in a reboot phase, lets all take notes in this period and remember we have far more to offer than they have lead us to believe. Mama Afrika is weeping for the exploitation that has gone on for far too long !!
7 months ago. I trully assume it will take long. Could any of you matrix oracles tell a estimated date?
I just can't explain it. She's summarized it all. She's a gem. Indeed, we have one standing alone in what many have feared to venture in.
She is my hero.

I like her courage to stand and speak the truth for Africa. Fact remains, Africa has been exploited for so long and the Western countries depends on Africa. You have my vote Mallence

this is The Best TED talk.
By far!!
You're damn right
She’s brave and dared to speak the truth . I believe I can use three words to describe Mallence :
integrity , respectful & honourable
Well done Mallence
I LOVE THIS YOUNG AFRICAN QUEEN. I LOVE HER TONE AND FEARLESS GLANCES AT THE AUDIENCE. SHE GUARANTEES HOPE FOR AFRICA AND HER PEOPLE. GOD bless you Barlance.
Mallence, thank you for the inspiration and motivation. At 61 years, I now understand that there is more for me to do. "Sharity" is a concept I now embrace fully. Helping youth to learn how to survive and thrive one a larger scale is now my mission. Teach, my sister, teach!
Roxanne Brown may God almighty give you more time to do more for the coming generation's...
That's one of the most brilliant speeches I've ever heard.
One of the best TED lectures I have ever heard. Brilliant message delivered in a devastatingly blunt, mocking and at the same time in a deadpan manner. Rise Africa Rise.
Beautiful presentation, it's starting to make sense by linking this with Dr Arikana Chihombori, and by listening to the late Robert Mugabe. History is so powerful, I have listened to this many times and I am still learning, love you sis
I am from Nigeria this is so beautiful it brought tears to my eyes
Hope you have gat your PVC
My DNA is nigerian
I cried so bad in the middle of this speech I had to stop the video to make a break. It breaks my heart to hear this and how degrading it is to Africa what we’re doing for centuries … I knew most of the information she said and had an awareness … but this now just hit me again and real bad……
I dont understand how this TED hasn't been watched more and how it has so few likes. I do understand but it aggrevates me deeply.
It's 2020 November and I'm watching this with tears 😭. Much love for Africa, from Kenya 🇰🇪
Chills down my spine. Her courage and her captivating voice; She is a true African Goddess with might. I feel great to have come across this in the long run and this message needs to be channeled to many.
How I love this woman when she calmly throws the truth at her faces... Brilliant.
i like how she is real smooth with it.....she is a very keen and intelligent strategist! Respect Queen! hope you will appear in the U.S. in the near future. continue the healing of the nation!
Her speech was hypnotic! A true Goddess! Sadly some still won’t get it.
Imaging many african leaders and business men have the same boldness, confidence and knowledge about there country as this woman...?
Her voice is very soothing and pretty, yet cuts me hard and deep. Her message is something I have wondered myself as well, but never truly searched for an answer. And I'm affraid its meaning fell away from those people. She feels like she can move the world with just a sentence. I would like to see a world in a thousand years and see Africa thrive and live without being robbed constantly.
Amen ❤
Thanks for your comment I am scrolling through to see if I see any more white folks that comment on this injustice for so many years that she articulated so well well I am assuming based on your photo and how you said what you said
No my dear. She has already moved the world with her speech. Those people in that room were enraptured, they will never forget her. Something (even if miniscule) from that lesson will stay with each and every one of them. Walk in her shoes, with her melanin and then you may think differently. In order to be understood, seek to understand
You yourself said you never truly looked for the answer, well here it is, she is telling it. How many times has a woman been doubted, and yet changed the world. Otherwise we should have told Rosa Parks to sit down(no civil rights advancements) and Madame Curie to stay at home in her kitchen (No radium, no x-rays). They were the 🥇 first.
@@menardtexsampson3745 Right (you probably won't see this months later), but I concur
Never had a speech so perfect In my life before ❤️
if all african leaders have the same mind as this beautiful woman my continent africa would be best place on earth.
And stop guiding us to hate but guiding us to education, excellence and encouragement to use our creativity. We can spend the next 100 years talking hate but that will be concentrating on the enemy; use your energy in building up the new upcoming generations of young Africans.

Why do Europeans take the minerals?To eat them?No ,to make things. So, what will we do with the minerals when we cannot make things with them?WE NEED TO LEARN TO FIRST MAKE MACHINES TO MINE AND IT IS NOT GOING TO BE EASYGOING because the workers want their share: medical care, housing, transportation, bonuses, human resources management, salary increase etc.ARE WE RAEDY FOR THIS?
Truth can be denied but never dismayed.
@@ecosubb How true
Sharity, wow!
Our perception of any given situation determines the outcome. Boom drop the mic! An amazing example; I tell my daughter that the greatest gift a girl/woman has is her voice. To speak out, to not accept, to challenge , to change.
Love her cool calm and composed presentation but with razor sharp impact on the mainly white audience who are probably squirming in their seats listening to the hard truths that are being blown in their direction. Well spoken Mallence. You are a rare and exquisite African diamond yourself.
I became a huge fan of her only by her first few sentences she said. God~~she's so brave!
True that, I can relate.
A very captivating speech. Not only does Mallence look very passionate about Sierra Leone, she looks very concerned about what the future could bring for Africa... Amazing job delivering your point of view.
Dear Mallence , thanks for charging life of those you mentioned and for sure others will follow them.
Best regards
Her boldness , her voice, her truth, the whole presentation and particularly the story made me sheared tears.
I am African.
Brilliant. I feel like a prodigal child that had lost my way. Thank you for bringing me home.
Still watching this 8yrs later….can never get any better❤❤❤
Mallence, you're the most inspiring woman i've ever seen.
Yes what a captivating woman!
I'm still shivering and sharing after a year of watching this talk. My channel has been changed
DEXTER NEWMAN
D NEWMAN!
Time to take the predidor out
This was one of the best presentations I’ve seen❤❤
Where do you get such boldness and guts. Please I need some. And the bluntness even with the audience, this is a wakeup. Damn I salute you
She was cool, calm, collected and articulated! Bravo!
They never thought we know... Now they know. This woman is leadership personified 💯
They where never hiding it bro.
@@meritbrownihe leaving you with distractions is the same as hiding, my love.
Lol chimp you keep telling yourself that
i actually stood and clapped when she finished lol. Powerful presentation, i am inspired!
The sadness in her eyes make me wana cry
There is so much sincerity, love, giftedness & consciousness screaming through you that even the comments about you have to bow to your elegance and sophistication! You bring a whole other level of meaning to Martin Luther King’s quote...”let us conduct our struggle on the high plain of discipline and dignity!” Mallence, you are proof of Sierra Leone’s riches, all by yourself! Thank you! 🙏🏽😇🌏
Lady what in the world are you talking about? Why are you invoking Martin Luther king?
How about commenting on the meaning of what she's saying instead of useless flattery
Their guilt was palpable in the room.....
I was thinking the same ... Indeed very picturesque
Because everything she said was true. I have watched that video with Jacques Chirac so many times with anger. The hypocrisy in the west is incredible.
Vaslsero tx, which video?
framb0isier No but they benefit.
And yet nothing has changed.
Mallance is the fire that creeps in gently stinging with truth beyond. The lioness that roars with authority. She commands the attention and is truly a Gem!
