Hlobane was the other great Zulu victory:
While Isandlwana gets a great deal of fame, Hlobane was a victory in its own way no less momentous and confirming one of the key elements that made this war distinctive. While the war would change at Khambula when newer-style artillery finally made its full debut on the battlefield along with machine guns, the earlier battles were rifles vs. spears and, save at the static fighting at Rorke's Drift that was more than a little akin to Blood River the Zulus rolled over the British. This underscores a key lesson of real wars, that machines alone can decide things in certain contexts but in others they create very real weaknesses that a seemingly obsolete force can and will exploit and make itself certain to do so.
It should also be noted in European terms of the time that artillery was the real killer in war, so the Zulu falling to that and to machine guns was a case of patterns that happened to European armies as well, and when a European army falls to this at Sadowa or Sedan they are considered incompetently led but it's not taken as an entire verdict on a people or a culture.

I want to homeschool because I think one-on-one student/teacher time would be better for helping a child improve, fear of teachers pushing beliefs even when it should be illegal (but SCOTUS let's teachers lead prayers now so fuck that i guess) but I've been seeing so much anti-homeschool posts lately it's got me worried if I will end up coming off as abusive or like a cult member.
I want my child to be able to learn real science without their classmates arguing with their teacher that there was no way that the gulf of Mexico was made by a meteor because Christian doctrine. I want my child to learn real history and not that "Afican Americans were 'unpaid workers'" (slaves, the word you're looking for is slaves).
And to feel guilty over things that happened 60 years ago? I remember even when I was in school learning about Ruby Bridges and feeling sad that she had to go through that but my mom and her then-partner made it out like the school made me feel sad but in reality it was just that I was showing empathy, how a school can force someone to feel empathetic I don't know maybe they should use that tactic with their failed anti-bullying campaigns so that way it never happens in the first place unlike letting teachers turn a blind eye so they don't have to fill out more paperwork (actual thing I heard a teacher say. They talked about how their door was always closed because if they didn't see it they didn't have to report it).
I want to be able to push them to their limits and help them. I don't want the anti-intellectualism of American society to rub off on them via their classmates, and in some cases even teachers. I don't want to give them the "better than you nlog" attitude I had but I want them to feel motivated to learn and improve upon themself.

Why i think Lincoln is a villain
The Civil War in the United States was two groups it was between the union vs confederacy 
slavery was the main idea issues south supported slavery north was anti slavery 
1861-1865north was victorious The Emancipation Proclamation was when the black soldiers 
abraham lincoln freed enslaved people in the truth issued in 1863 goal was to received newly freed slaves into the army.
 President Lincoln should not be viewed as a hero for emancipating enslaved people because he freed the slaves but he had no plan to take care of them. according to source_7 #8 With the Confederate troops surrounding the area, a mass of hundreds of freed-people jump into the flooded waters of the Creek in a frenzied attempt to swim across. Over 500 people drowned. This  shows that newly freed slaves were left to die at the creek This explains how black people were treated poorly According to source 7 “ shows that newly freed slaves were left to die at the creek  This explains how black people were treated poorly because in source 7 it shows how lincoln sent all the black soldiers to the lake to just get killed The Emancipation Proclamation was something that impacted war because of the way it was shown and the way people were treated. This is important because it shows how black people were treated during war At this time in history many black Americans were feeling not important at the time because many of them had job but never got paid many off them got sent to war to just die. This is important because it shows how lincoln treated black americans poorly The impact of the Emancipation Proclamation was many african americans dying in war because lincon needed people in the war and he chose to just send the afican american slaves.This is important because it shows how africans were treated badly Abraham Lincoln is similar to frederick douglass  because they both used slaves as people to fight in the war. This is important because it shows how mainly slave were used to fight this is why i think lincon is not a hearo and he is a vilian 
In conclusion, i think lincoln should not be viewed as a hero because yea he freed the slave but that didnt stop him from going into war and getting the slaves killed. In my opinon if lincon never sent the slaves to war just to get killed he would be considered a hero in my eyes.

Senegal Wins Afican Cup Of Nations
Senegal Wins Afican Cup Of Nations
Handed a chance of redemption, Senegal forward Sadio Mane didn’t pass up the opportunity to make history for his country. Having missed a penalty early on in the African Cup of Nations final against Egypt on Sunday at the Olembe Stadium in Yaoundé, Cameroon, Mane struck the decisive spot-kick in a tense shootout as Senegal won its first ever continental championship against the seven-time winner…

The magazine complete 
This final outcome is showcased in order, from:
 Alexandra (Alexander),
 to Wang (Wu),
 to Elijah (Elizabeth),
 to Julia (Julius).
Overall, i am very happy with the outcome, it had taken a lot of attempts to get everything in the right order so it looks organized and clean. With the information pages, i didn’t want to have a lot of writing on there or a lot of detail, i tried to keep it quite minimalistic so that the main focus could be the drawings. Because of that, i decided to not compare the drawings to drawings/paintings in the past, but instead statues. I thought that fit quite nicely. As well as that, the information that i gave was only 2/3 sentences long, but enough to understand who they are, where they’re from and what time period they ruled. I gathered the time information from Wiki. The sentences gave an interesting connection to the drawings, for example: 100 BC, in Roman History, iconic names are mostly male, not female.. Another example: 1533 England, no Afican-American Kings or men in high authority.

Truth of Democrats
As I've talked about phonies, ( https://profoundtruthcrusader.tumblr.com/post/173052134632/phonies-who-claimed-to-be-allies-but-really ) aren't, and would turn on any minority that don't follow their narratives, and think independently.
They set all of the prejudice policies were done by whites, but never really stated what parties they were in. They were Democrats, they've started slavery in the first place, which lead to the undergound railroad to help Afican Americans to escape slavery, by setting up the underground railroad. ( https://profoundtruthcrusader.tumblr.com/post/172273325102/let-me-remind-you-about-the-undergound-railroad ) And Democrat Confederates (the South) fired the first shot of the Civil War at the Battle of Fort Sumter ( https://www.civilwar.org/learn/articles/trigger-events-civil-war?gclid=Cj0KCQjw_ZrXBRDXARIsAA8KauQoIW884NuBFEI_lyhoRxLwgUVslPKdeOfBN5rrhYmmnG2LCVNJCSAaAjifEALw_wcB ). Here are some sites covering the history of the civil war:
https://www.history.com/topics/black-history/slavery
Brief history of the subject: https://www.civilwar.org/learn/articles/slavery-united-states?gclid=Cj0KCQjw_ZrXBRDXARIsAA8KauQlV1OiUgnWvb9ZTY0weavMiWTEJkGasycBNYGNRvUiierPgaq1mkQaAuCiEALw_wcB
The Civil War lead to the abolishment of slavery, which is now illegal.
The Democrats didn't liked losing their ownership over African Americans, so, they've become really sore over it and put in Jim Crow laws, which had heavily harmed minorities, they had a long history of oppressing minorities, especially African Americans ( https://www.nationalreview.com/2017/02/democrat-black-history-month-amnesia-democratic-party-oppresses-blacks/ ). Because they have implement Jim Crow laws, other whites to fight for equal treatments and rights, and done away with those racist policies.
If weren't for the Democrats being sore about losing the civil war and if weren't for the Jim Crow laws and segregation, and others racist laws like them, there would not have been as much minorities suffering as today, and many more would be successful, and the values that lead to the abolishment of slavery and establishment of equal rights would not be demonize and blamed for those policies, and we would not be having this division as we do today. These values didn't bring these racist policies, the values ended them, remember how you once saw these values: https://profoundtruthcrusader.tumblr.com/post/172523686742/do-you-remember-the-values-youve-held-before
They don't want minorities to succeed, the Democrats wants them stay dependent on them, they want them to stay on welfare, and would shame minorities for trying to get out, becoming self reliant and independent and free from financial bandage, and free from the Denocrats' financial plantation.
Democrats (and now RINOs (Republican In Name Only)) don't want them to know that opportunities are just as available to minorities as anyone else. And fights against their attempts on every turn, and blames their political opponents for the sufferance of minorities.
Democrats don't want minorities to know that economic freedom which I talked about in this post ( https://profoundtruthcrusader.tumblr.com/post/172794346630/capitalism-vs-communism-ive-seen-a-lot-of-debate ) and also here in this post ( https://profoundtruthcrusader.tumblr.com/post/173125602782/is-increasing-quality-of-life-small-towns-a-bad ) will help them succeed and allow climb the ladder of success, the Democrats will socially shame them and metaphorically whip them for attempting to climb that ladder, and say it's their political enemies' fault for their for their suffering.
If minorities succeed, then they won't rely on welfare, but be confident in their skills to succeed, the narrative of that their political opponents are oppressing them would collapse and lose their power over the good people of this great land.
The Democrats (and now RINOs, too, along with them, so they can push narratives, the both of them) have always been implementing policies that have been putting harming minorities in a long run, they treat them like they can reach the same bar, and as I mentioned in the first paragraph, that's linking to my post on phonies who protends to be allies, but would socially metaphorically whipped them, by calling them race traitors and Uncle, for going against their narratives. And shame minorities for succeeding in life without out prompting hate on rights, instead of promoting unity, just like they did to Ben Carson, the Democrats will turn others against them. Especially if they bring up what they learn about Hillary (https://profoundtruthcrusader.tumblr.com/post/173356430417/about-hillary-as-i-have-mentioned-in-my-past-post ) and try to bring it to everyone's attention
They used dishonest and misrepresentation to keep this control and use any kind of methods to continue to do so, and this person be explained it very well ( https://youtu.be/RHcPmlCmKsM ).
Reflecting on the past, seeing how other whites have been fighting for equal rights and equal treatments, and the ones who have been fighting against that in the past, it should not be “white guilt” at all, but instead it really should be Democrat guilt.

Just about communicating, it does not matter if you may get a medical insurance program delivered to you, if the costs is therefore high that you could certainly not manage that. Fee prices quote in the stable of $1,200, $1,800, $2,300, and much higher each month are delivered to individuals with wellness problems.

Each opportunity your baby becomes a month older, merely administer a huge month label and also you will possess a chronological document from your child's development. As well as there's Substitute Teacher Gratitude Week, the subs acquire small modified also on their recognition, I wager the full-time teachers get a whole month of awareness.
