    This is very terrible to the highest degree and it is easy to criticize these people, but in reality this is the result of bad governance, government corruption and government greed in countries like this. Everyday people are struggling to get by everyday. I grew up in a third world country. The struggle is crazy and real, because the government does not care about the people. The government care more about stealing money.

    "We're still here ... We are not going anywhere." ~ Native Americans 😔 Native Americans: Our Native American population in our motherland, the Continent of America before the European Colonizers arrived, was around 15 millions, while the European population in their motherland, the Continent of Europe was around 25 millions. Today, Native American population is 15 million, while the European population, in the Continents of America + Europe, is a staggering 'TWO BILLIONS'! A shocking sad truth. 😔 The world: It's about time to decolonize the Colonized lands, and return it to rightful owners Native American people. Notorious global cardinal crimes the West has committed, and benefited a great deals, such as Slavery & Colonialism had long been over, why on earth is notorious Colonization still lingering on?
