Save the elephants!



Ey you all, I want to share with you a big problem which is made by our human race. African elephants are on danger, more and more of these majestatic animals die because of.. human's greed. An ivory is willingly buying by tourists and nobody thinks that they tenotribute to elephants extinition. If we don't do anything, they will die in about 10 years!!!
How we can help? The simplest way is just don't buy the ivory. If we can help them more, we can donate the money for their protection in popular organisations like:  http://www.tuskusa.com/ or http://www.savetheelephants.org/ . The elephants are the most inteligent animals for me, they have feelings just like us, so we should say STOP ELEPHANT'S COACHING, STOP ILLEGAL TRAFFICKING and STOP DEMAND! It's the voice of animals lovers, especially elephants lovers so don't be neutral for elephants suffering and let the world know that we do not need the ivory, we prefer to save the elephants!

Door Of No Return



As I am an african history and culture passionate I would like to share with u a little bit of my knowledge of the Black Continent. What is the door of no return? It had started in XV ceintury and was persisting to XIX. It is located in Ghana. It was a place from where white people (clolnizers) took Africans for slavish work as they were their owns. Treated as things, not humans, were transported by ships in inhuman conditions to another countries. A travel was persisting something about 3 months or longer. During the travel a lot of people died because nobody care about the salves. It's a dramatic history point where is no information about how many Africans were died, it was just uncountable..If you want to see what I am talking about,check out the link below.

No ing , like - singing, dancing, eating .

Merry Christmas!

Hope everyone is going to spend this magical time full of joy, hapiness and love around family and loved ones. Even these who do not celebrate this holiday, I wish you much more to come in 2017, make sure that decisions made in the next year will be only good ones and based on your experience. And to all gluttons as me! Hope that all of these calories gained during Christmas will disappear quickly, so in my case I wish myslef to be more active phisically and finally find some free time to go at some dance classes next year :) oxoxox Blessing, Paula

Aminata "The book of Negroes"

Big up my people, a little annoucement to everyone who is interested in the topic of slavery, today at 8:25 on TVP1 is played a very touching series about a strong black woman who is trying to overcome the devil crated by white people in the USA. Don't miss it but attention.. There sometimes are very drastic images. The best option for Friday evening. I hope that these who will watch it, will enjoy it as me. A trailer of "The book of Negroes"
