Another Perspective of the Fatal Ethiopian Airlines Crash

The March 10th Ethiopian Airlines 737 MAX crash killed 157 people. Today, a lawsuit against Boeing was filed. The lawsuit was filed in the Chicago federal court by the family of Jackson Musoni, a citizen of Rwanda, and alleges that Boeing, had defectively designed the automated flight control system that caused the crash.  Dr. Mumbi Seraki of the Dr Mumbi Show painted an interesting narrative about why the plane crashed. Dr. Seraki  has a PhD from the University of Nairobi in African Women Studies. Her Masters was in Human Resources Planning from Webster University in Geneva, Switzerland and her undergraduate degree was also in human resources and international business, from Loyola University of Chicago. In addition to her education, Dr Seraki worked for the United Nations 7 years in Geneva, Switzerland. The video is kind of long (22 minutes) but has some valuable info from someone that is deeply invested in Africa.  

Imagine Having To Survive Off Of Eating Dirt Cookies

In first world countries, one is considered poor if they receive government assistance such as food stamps and subsidized housing. Even the homeless have access to soup kitchens for food and emergency room services for health care. If you are reading this, then it is safe to say that you are privileged enough to have access to a computer and internet.

I imagine that people wouldn’t be so prone to drop out of a FREE public education system if it wasn’t given so freely. Some countries dream of having access to the things that we take for granted.

Take a look at some people in Haiti that have to survive by eating “cookies” made of dirt. In addition to dirt, the mixture is made with a touch of vegetable shortening , salt and if they are lucky, a pinch of sugar.

The next time you complain about how tough of a life you have, watch this video.

riotQ the question

Days after the announcement that a grand jury in Ferguson, Missouri declined to indict the police officer who fatally shot 18-year-old Michael Brown…the small town is still in chaos after riots and vandelism. Q The Question took time out from preparing for the Trel Mack Tour, to speak exclusively to Beta Beat Radio about the Ferguson riots. “The citizens are making it worse by rioting destroying local businesses in such a small town… this will create even more poverty” said the rising mogul. Do you agree with Q?
