3. Al-Jazeera

'What's compelling is looking at them, the way they are dressed. These are prosperous, middle-class people. These are not obviously refugees trying to get away from the Middle East...or North Africa. They look like any European family that you'd live next door to.'

4. BFM TV (France)

'We are in the 21st century, we are in a European city and we have cruise missile fire as though we were in Iraq or Afghanistan, can you imagine! ? "

7. BFM TV (France)

============================

Point Blank Black

Racists think black people are inferior
By inference they are superior
When research is done
Truth is we are just but one
People migrated out of Africa
Out of Sudan going right up to Antarctica
It is the African genome and it's robustness
Mixed with Neanderthals in their remoteness
Which saved the world from extinction
The African genome has distinction.
Look at Covid statistics
The death rate of black people in Africa is fantastic

Being black doesn't mean i lack
Like a flower i have the power
To outshine the brightest
The colour you see on me
Is a skin so thin
Evolution devolution
Millions of years of having fun in the sun
Producing calciferol more that calcium
Vitamin D produced for free
More melanin than Melania
Tell that fair Hungarian Aryan
Being African doesn't mean i can not.
