Pigs of the Sea

Proverbs: “A woman who is beautiful but lacks discretion is like a gold ring in a pig’s snout“. This is used as a metaphor to describe something valuable or beautiful that is wasted or misplaced on someone who does not appreciate its value or has poor character.

O’siyo…. Ani-Yunwiya Tameri , we have been invaded on our land by a group of people who disrespectfully , seeking to exploit our character of good governance and moral values , with an unmistakable intentional regard of immoral behavior that has thrown us off our mission , is at its end!

Let’s break this down!

We have, for far too long , placed value on other cultures and ethnicities with open arms, as they have secretly been using our kindness as a weakness, to look down upon Ani-Yunwiya Tameri . The movement to delineate from Pan Africanism , Caribbean and Latin Spaniards is a detriment to our survival. These cultural differences do not , and has not benefited us at all. So as we explore the depths of our culture, we are pressed to ask those not like us to leave us alone! It’s that quiet time to reflect on who we are, and how we move forward together.
