'Kasa Poley' is Fante for 'talkative'. I feel I have something to say. This is my way of putting it out there. Oh, and the adinkra symbol is called 'akofena'. It means 'courage'.

1984
This is a book that I have exactly a week to read. I'll tell you about it when i'm done o k...
This dystopian novel is pretty interesting. It's funny how for a book that was published in 1949 some of the happenings can be related to stuff happening in the world in 2010. How governments are doing some tricky surveillance on the people. How the working class is having a hard time making ends meet and yet the leaders are chopping all the money and living good lives.How people are 'programmed' to think a certain way ( human robots). The book has three recurring phrases; War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength. Think about these three things and link the to what you see and hear happening around you and comment.
