Cabo Verde também perde Judge George N. Leighton

A bandeira nacional devia honrar o Legendary Chicago jurist George N. Leighton.
What a journey!
“He will go down as one of this nation’s greatest civil rights lawyers,” Neal said. “Not just in advancement of racial equality, but fighting for everyone to ensure the Constitution protected all individuals.”

Germano - Prémio Camões 2018

Parabéns Germano!
Cabo Verde devia aproveitar mais este prémio Camões para lançar o que podia ser a revolução linguística ou tolerância zero para crimes linguísticos. Quem daria a pedrada?

What is (this) Social Media?

"Ahora, los nuevos medios de comunicación practican una modalidad mucho más insidiosa de mercantilización.En ella, el objetivo no es directamente la atención de los consumidores, sino la explotación económica del perfil privado de los usuarios. Se roban los datos de los clientes sin su conocimiento para poder manipularlos mejor, a veces incluso con fines políticos perversos, como acabamos de saber a través del escándalo de Facebook."

"Lo que me irrita es el hecho de que se trata de la primera revolución de los medios en la historia de la humanidad que sirve ante todo a fines económicos, y no culturales."

Regionalização - Zoom In o texto de Crisanto Barros

Zoom 0.
Por imperativos de soberania e de algum populismo à mistura em tempos de eleições, o Estado – central e autárquico – é composto por uma gigantesca máquina política e burocrática (Presidente da República e vasta equipa, Primeiro-ministro e duas dezenas de ministros/secretários de Estado, 72 deputados nacionais, 342 deputados municipais, 22 presidentes de câmaras, 116 vereadores, mais de uma centena de direções de serviços centrais e desconcentrados, um número significativo de institutos e empresas públicas, estas últimas quase todas insolventes. Além disso, se se tomar em conta alguns indicadores de representação política, constata-se, por exemplo, que o país dispõe de um deputado nacional para cada 8049 habitantes, um deputado municipal para cada 1553 pessoas e uma autarquia local (Município) para cada 24147 almas.

What is the "size" of Cape Verde History?

"Barzillai Lew, a distinguished American Revolutionary War Hero, was a free born black man from Groton, MA born in 1743 to a “mulatto” slave owned by Capt. Samuel Scripture, named Margaret Lew, native of Cabo Verde. Margaret married Primus in 1742 and had two sons and two daughters, Barzillai being the oldest. ... Not only that…. Duke Ellington dedicated a composition to him called “Barzillai Lew”.
