This is a great interview! One of the best I have heard with Dr. Obadele Kambon. The interviewer started off a little disorganized, but once they got going, it was a great historical and political explanation of the Zimbabwe situation. The blogger called "Onitaset" wrote a great blog post related to this topic, but it is about the aAmw slave trade occurring in Libya now. Those who are interested can access is here. It is called, "Black People Need to Stop Scapegoating Others for the Slavery in Libya". The title is counter-intuitive, but his argument is essentially the same that is made by Dr. Kambon here. Basically, until Kmtyw people (Kemetiu) start to take our own survival and power seriously against the threats of the whites (ALL WHITES including your friends and the 'good white people' at your workplace), our oppression and enslavement will continue unabated. Furthermore, people who are only committed on rainy days, like Mugabe seems to have been at times, are not very helpful either, even if they do say and do some good things.

I wrote a reply to the post by Onitaset which I will post below.

This post is correct! In the intervening years since 2011, I have done  as much as I saw possible to try to prevent this occurrence of a return  to slavery and build power for Kmtyw people. I have more to do, but  what I have encountered has shocked me! Quite frankly, Kmtyw people  are still too in love with whites (Eureurasians) to take precautionary  measures to protect ourselves and build powerful institutions. I tried  starting a business with some Kmtyw men from the continent. All they  were concerned with was getting me to help them attract white patrons to  the business more effectively. When I said we should focus on Kmtyw  patrons, they looked befuddled and just changed the subject. Moreover,  they were waiting for me to fund the business entirely and did nothing  on their own to contribute financially. Kmtyws have gotten use to  white folks with money coming to the continent and throwing their money  around on dead-end projects that enrich a few locals but in the long run  ensure that nothing of significance develops. This is the economic  development model that many Kmtyws have accepted. Needless to say the  business did not take off. I was also part of a team to start an  educational institution in Kmt, but as time went on, I realized that  much of the staff and the director were only interested in trying to get  me to interface with white people from the west to attract their  patronage (which would of course give the whites control over the  direction of the school) It was either that or my Kmtyw colleagues  were simply disinterested in building an administrative system that  would last beyond their own involvement with the project. They were more  interested in their individual feelings and personal stature rather  than working as a team to build a lasting institution. The fact is that  most Kmtyws at this late date still see having white friends, white  benefactors, white lovers, and white business partners as the key to  success! As you correctly state, ideology is the key, but when you look  at the schools and universities in many Kmtyw nations, you see either  disinterested educational professionals simply collecting a salary,  arrogant professors with lavish yet impractical academic  accomplishments, and a focus on sending the best and brightest pupils to  the west (or east) to study at famous (not prestigious) universities.  Meanwhile, the roads are too narrow for the amount of traffic flowing  through on a daily basis, and there are open sewers in the major cities.  Electrical infrastructure is unreliable and technological projects are  not undertaken to ensure a vibrant civil society has the means to  develop efficient industries and businesses to meet the needs of a  growing population. Instead people are chattering on social media about a  racially ambiguous quadroon who is laying down with the devil himself!  Let's keep up the fight! But, we have to also know what we are up  against among our own people. Good post! By the way, are you going to  release your books in eBook format?
