I was rereading an old interview with the author Marlon James the otter day when I saw the essay "Walking While Black" by Garnette Cadogan mentioned and I remember I meant to read it once but had more important things to do at the time so I put it off. Seeing the mention again I decided to Google it and read it. I did read it and it made me see what I was blind to before. I never understood White Privilege and I hate people who toss it in my face just because I am white. Who in the HELL are they to assume I have had it better than others just because I am a White Male? I have had a rough life not even Chris Rock would like to trade places with me. For people who grew up as I did with abuse it would be hard, damn near impossible to see where there has been any Privilege in their lives.

Protecting Uganda’s Future – Its Children
Today is Human Rights Day and the final day of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. It’s a day to remind us that everyone must play a vital role in championing human rights and protecting those in need. Children are the most vulnerable among us, completely dependent on others for their needs and protection. This makes children the most likely to suffer violence and human rights abuses, often at the hands of those on whom they depend on the most. Uganda has an appallingly high incidence rate of violence against children. The Uganda Violence Against Children Survey (UVAC 2015) found that 75 per cent of Ugandan children experience some form of violence during childhood. Research shows that the bulk of this violence is occurring in places that should be safe and committed by people like parents/relatives, teachers, friends, and trusted community leaders who those children should be able to trust most.

Breaking: Russian military choppers resume heavy attack on jihadist mountain stronghold
BEIRUT, LEBANON (11:00 A.M.) – Minutes ago, the Russian Air Force’s attack choppers resumed their strikes on the jihadist mountain stronghold of Kabani. According to an army source in the Al-Akrad Mountains of northeastern Latakia, the Russian military choppers launched a heavy attack on Kabani and its surroundings, causing a number of explosions that could be heard throughout this rugged region. This latest string of strikes by the Russian Air Force comes after a short absence of aerial attacks over Syria because of the poor weather. While the Russian Air Force was grounded, however, the Syrian Arab Army’s (SAA) 4th Armored Division kept up the pressure on the jihadist rebels by launching several rockets and artillery shells towards the latter’s positions in Kabani.

Massive US military convoy arrives base in western Iraq: media
BEIRUT, LEBANON (12:20 P.M.) – A massive U.S. military convoy reportedly arrived in western Iraq this week amid recent attacks carried out near their installations inside the country. According to Al-Sumaria TV, the U.S. military convoy consisted of 500 vehicles that entered Iraq from neighboring Jordan. The U.S. military convoy reportedly reached their final destination at the ‘Ayn Al-Assad Base in Iraq’s Al-Anbar province. No further details were released regarding the alleged U.S. military convoy.

Unknown gunmen attack Syrian intelligence checkpoint in Daraa
BEIRUT, LEBANON (12:00 P.M.) – A group of unknown gunmen carried out an attack on a checkpoint belonging to the Syrian Air Force Intelligence in eastern Daraa this morning. According to local reports, the gunmen, who were suspected to be members of a Free Syrian Army (FSA), Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham (HTS) or Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL/IS/Daesh) sleeper cell, opened fire on the checkpoint before fleeing in an unknown direction. The reports said there were casualties among the Syrian Air Force Intelligence personnel; however, the total dead and wounded is unknown. These attacks by the FSA, HTS, and ISIS sleeper cells have decreased over the last four months, thanks in large part to the increase of Syrian Army troops in the Daraa Governorate. However, with the absence of Syrian military personnel in some of the reconciled towns in the Daraa Governorate, it has been difficult to crackdown on these sleeper cells.
Arthur Melo: Barcelona midfielder set to miss El Clasico due to treatment of STD infection
Arthur Melo: Barcelona midfielder reportedly set to miss upcoming El Clasico due to an alleged encounter with an STD infection.Barcelona’s star midfielder is set to miss Barcelona matches for few weeks after he has reportedly encountered an STD infection, and its treatment will keep him away from matches as its dosages can violate anti-doping norms.According to Andreu Ginola, the reason Arthur Melo did not play against Mallorca was because of a sexually transmitted infection. The club claimed he missed out due to a groin injury, whereas Ginola claims it was due to gonorrhoea. This would likely see Arthur sidelined for a few weeks: the medicine for gonorrhoea pops up on anti-doping control’s radar, and if tested positive, Arthur would be suspended for months. According to @andreuginola, the reason Arthur Melo did not play against Mallorca was because of a sexually transmitted infection. The club claimed he missed out due to a groin injury, whereas Ginola claims it was due to gonorrhea. — Zach Lowy (@ZachLowy)…

How This African Woman Beat Global Odds To Become The 2019 Hero Of The Year
It may come across as absurd and preposterous but to this day, there is a stigma around adolescent females in the rural parts of one of the two African countries that were never colonised — Ethiopia. (Liberia is the other one.) In the rural parts of Ethiopia, young girls suffer because they are denied opportunities. And they are denied these opportunities just for being “human”. Yes, in some Ethiopian communities, young girls suffer ignominy and often drop out of school altogether just because of something as natural as menstruation. Yes, as many as half the girls in rural parts of Ethiopia miss school for reasons related to their periods — and that often hampers their education, and by extension, the rest of their lives. What an anomaly! Freweini Mebrahtu — an Ethiopian who has a degree in Chemical Engineering from the US — has dedicated her life fixing that anomaly. And for her efforts, she has been named the 2019 Hero of the Year by CNN.

Liverpool go to the Rouge Bos Taurus Arena top of Group E, needing a win to secure first position or a draw to ensure progress to the last 16. I’m reliably informed that even a 5-4 defeat would be good enough, but such a scenario seems unlikely given the Reds haven’t conceded five goals in a game for a good, err, six weeks now. Let’s not go overboard…

Gini Wijnaldum returns to training ahead Liverpool’s trip to Salzburg
Liverpool prepared for their Champions League game with Salzburg with a training session at Melwood in front of the cameras. A make-or-break tie in Austria sees the Reds needing a draw to guarantee progression, while a win would seal top spot in the group. Jurgen Klopp would love to have his entire squad available for such a crucial encounter, but the Reds are without Fabinho and Joel Matip for the entirety of the Christmas fixture list. A couple of injury scares at the weekend added to that concern, but Dejan Lovren—who went off in the first half—and Gini Wijnaldum—who missed the game entirely—were both in training with the squad at Melwood on Monday afternoon. Adam Lallana, who also missed the trip to Dean Court, seemed to train apart from the main group, however, making it unlikely he features in the squad in Austria.

Just six months after the longest war in American history began, then-Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld tellingly wrote in a memo that "we are never going to get the U.S. military out of Afghanistan unless" the U.S. ensured there was "stability ... necessary for us to leave." And for the 18 years since, U.S. officials have been privately relaying the same concerns while publicly touting "progress," documents and interviews obtained and published by The Washington Post reveal. Rumsfeld wrote an estimated 59,000 memos he called "snowflakes" during his tenure, but most of them remained private until now. The Post had filed a lawsuit against the National Security Archive and has since obtained more of those snowflakes, including one from 2003 where Rumsfeld complained that he had "no visibility into who the bad guys are." In interviews with the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction also obtained and published by the Post…
