We were preparing for this wi the out knowing we were preparing. #SankofaSquare #FifaWorldCup
This is a testament to Canadian diversity Toronto’s central square is named β€œSankofa Square” it’s a Ghanaian name. Today the Ashanti King & Ghana’s VP were here as the city celebrated Ghana’s World Cup win This is exactly what the tournament should feel like in North America

Ann Coulter, You are ignorant as fuck. Not sure if it’s from skipping ancient Greece in school or just being a moron. Either way, here’s what we know: Homer and Euripides weren’t β€œwriting myths about African gods”. They weren’t writing myths at all. Those myths already existed for centuries. Homer turned them into epic poetry. Euripides turned them into tragedies. You clearly know fuck all about ancient Greeks. They drenched in praise black and brown people. Homer calls black Africans the β€œblameless Ethiopians” aka the most pious humans alive. β€œBlameless” was a praise awarded only to heroes. So holy that Zeus and the entire Olympian crew ditch the Trojan War for 12 straight to feast with them. Herodotus says they’re the tallest, most handsome, longest-lived people on earth. The Greeks worshipped Egypt as the cradle of civilization. Herodotus called Egyptians the oldest people alive and gushed over their wisdom, geometry, medicine, and temples. Plato sent his smartest characters there to study. Greek myths are packed with black kings and queens: Zeus fathers Epaphus, king of Egypt. Memnon, Ethiopian king, rolls up to Troy as a legendary warrior Achilles has to fight. Andromeda, an Ethiopian princess, marries into Greek royalty. They straight-up admired brown Levantines too. Phoenicians gave them the alphabet. Cadmus (a Phoenician prince) founded Thebes in Greece. Meanwhile? Aristotle roasts your Northern European ancestors as β€œfull of spirit but wanting in intelligence and skill” aka brave but stupid. Brown peoples? He calls them β€œintelligent and inventive” but lacking bravery. The classics were never some pure white European fanfic. The ancient Greeks respected and borrowed from Africans and Easterners while calling your barbarian bloodline uncivilized savages. It’s embarrassing yourself.
Homer, Euripides, Virgil and Ovid were not writing myths about African gods, any more than they were writing myths about Martians. That's kinda central to the stories.

Japanese star Kazuma Okamoto introduced a new tradition on his new team, the Toronto Blue Jays. Before every game, players stand in a circle and share what they are grateful for. It's now one of the best traditions in Major League Baseball.

Jeremy Hansen of the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) is a mission specialist, meaning he has trained for all roles to jump into action wherever needed, like Koch. Artemis II is his first spaceflight, and he is the first Canadian to fly to the Moon. youtu.be/fLcT1tbSeSU

There should be a strong online norm against speaking ill of children online. Does not matter if they're wearing a funny outfit or a MAGA hat or acting "gay." Being a kid can be tough and using them as fodder for jokes or clicks online, esp if you're adult, is loser behavior.

I'm very proud that our leaders in Canada openly cry, no matter what party stripe they are. Prime Minister Carney is above all, a human. He's a father and a husband. – at Ajax, Ontario

Saying we can’t cross a bridge is epic troll behaviour.
Trump’s latest Canada target: the Gordie Howe bridge, which Canada paid for because the U.S. refused to split the cost. Now Trump is seeking half US ownership.
