On this July 1st, I am remembering with gratitude Kwame Nkrumah, who led the Ghanaian people in their fight for independence from the British because it is Republic Day in Ghana. I am also remembering with sorrow the many years of bloodshed in Rwanda that (in large part) was a result of colonial powers pitting the Hutus and Tutsis against one another. And I am proud of the people of Rwanda for showing their strength in the past 20 years of reconciliation because it is Independence Day in Rwanda. And I am grateful for Ali Liebert, the prettiest, funniest, and awesomest actor, because it is Canada Day. What? I can be shallow if I want to be.
