Hello Language Lovers! Thank you for joining me for this episode of Speaking Tongues- the podcast in conversation with multilinguals. This week, we're talking about the Lingala language and Congolese culture with Melissa, the founder and teacher behind Lingala Lessons. In this episode, Melissa tells us about growing up in Paris speaking both Lingala and French and how this often felt like living in two different countries- France and DRC. She tells us about how her parents made the effort to reinforce Lingala and their Congolese roots at home and how Black American tv shows were impactful in African French communities. We talk about Lingala grammar and learn how the language is used in DRC, Republic of Congo and other Lingala speaking regions. Melissa tells us about Congolese music and why it's really important to Congolese people and keep listening to find out where we can experience Congolese culture & food in Paris. Big thank you to Melissa for this conversation and for sharing parts of your languages and culture with us.

Black Lives Matter is global, so what's Joe Biden's foreign policy? When a black rebellion spread like wildfire in America immediately after the police's murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis, that far left across borders and oceans finding- tending tinderboxes of similarly racially, oppressed black national communities throughout Europe. Igniting and it's spreading massive black rebellions and protests in European capitals of Canada, Britain, Germany, France, Belgium, New Zealand, and the Netherlands. This shows the face of global white supremacy, commonly diluted to the generic term of racism, how black lives doesn't matter all over the world under Caucasian governments. Since Black Lives Matter is a global problem and America is the self-proclaimed leader of the free world, then what is presidential hopeful Joe Biden's foreign policy to bring the world in line with respecting the human rights of African-American peoples globally. Lest African-Americans not forget that the history of Africans kidnapped, enslaved, racially segregated, and civil rights struggle happened to black people in Britain, France, and Germany as well. And whether we are aware of it or not, this history connects black peoples throughout the world in a pan-African way. So oceans apart, the struggles of African-Americans and African Britain, French, Germans are identical. We are fighting to overcome institutional racial class oppression, and a million racial injustices and inequalities imposed by Caucasian governments. Acknowledging that shared history can help us focus on our shared reality, which is white supremacy carried out by Caucasians is a global problem that requires a global response and solution led by America. Joe Biden's presidential campaign has begun to adopt a domestic anti-racism policy, but where is his parallel foreign anti-racism policy and message at- for the rest of the world's nations and the treatment of their black communities? What good does a domestic anti racist policy in America serve an African-American that travels to France only to have white French cops murder him because he is black like they murdered the African French brother Adama Traoré when French cops pinned him on the ground and suffocated him to death. France is even worse than America. Obviously an American foreign anti-racism policy is greatly needed. It's a terrible shame that none of today's African-American leaders having knowledge of our illustrious pan-African ancestors as W.E.B. Du Bois, Marcus Garvey, Elijah Muhammad, Malcolm X, Robert F. Williams, and Huey P. Newton have not called for a Pan-African anti-racism agenda for the world or demanded that the Democratic and Republican parties adopt global anti-racism as America's foreign policy. In addition to the bourgeois so-called African-American leadership being consumed with making Joe Biden pick a black woman for the historically weak vice president position at home, they should be pressing Biden to fulfill many of the powerful cabinet positions of Treasury Department, the NSA, the State Department, the Justice Department, and Ambassador to the UN with African-Americans, that they may be positioned to push for a human rights and anti-racism policy for black people at home and abroad. That way, black lives will matter worldwide. From the belly of the beast at PrisonRadio.org, I am Shakaboona. Thank you for listening.

When two legends team up, their success is guaranteed. Professional explorer Mike Horn and rally driver Cyril Despres came together for the dakar rally and I met the crazy duo in Chamonix, France. They told me about fear, money, adrenaline and risks in motorsports and why their training is like a shortcut to success. Mike has seen more of the world than nearly every other human. He gave us an inspirational coaching lesson about life, motivation, discipline and personal limits. Mike Horn is a legendary adventurer who has completed a solo journey around the equator and became the first person to travel to the North Pole without a dog or motorized support, during winter, in permanent darkness.Cyril Despres is known as the rally dakar expert. He has taken part 20 times at the world’s toughest rally and won it five times.Go check out the Vlog of our trip to Chamonix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTvvW4n-ztI&feature=youtu.beClick here for the Video Podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Domblmv-zU4&feature=youtu.beDon’t miss out when we drop the next episode next week with BMX legend and my good friend Terry Adams.

She has tried to break it off with him to save her marriage but it has failed on numerous occasions. How can she finally rid herself of him and fix whats broken with her husband? Caller #2 is Ana who is 30yrs old from Makati. Ana was approached by an African/French guy at the mall recently. He got her number, they watched a few movies, some slight momol, and after just two days he already said he is in-love with her! Now she wants to drop his ass. Caller #3 is Abra who is 28yrs old from Antipolo. Abra feels like he yells too much at his kids and he wants help in stopping. It has gotten to a point wherein his kids are terrified even in just regular conversations. Caller #4 is Jonathan who is 37yrs old in Laguna. Much like Abra, it is Jonathan's wife that has a bit of a temper and he is wondering how he can go about in convincing his wife to see a therapist .
