A Monday chilling at home. That’s quite nice, isn’t it?
The occation is African Union Day when we celebrate…yeah, what do we celebrate? The Pan-African vision of a united Africa? The African Union? And is it really something to celebrate? Read this sharp article By fellow blogger Ato Kwamina Dadzie on the subject.
Chilling at home, it suddenly dawns on me that every day is a holiday, somewhere on the planet. There is of course a website to inform us of them, see Earth Calendar. There I find out that today is not just AU-day, it is also the day for a local sugar festival in Bolivia, Carpet-day in Turkmenistan and National Tap-Dance-Day in the US.
So I might just celebrate a bit even though the vision of African unity is still just a dream.
In the pic an unrelated African celebration.
