To [the American slave], your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling

vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciation of tyrants, brass-fronted impudence; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade and solemnity, are, to Him, mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy – a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages.
—Frederick Douglass

3 If you became president of your country one day, what changes would you.<br> make?
Oduvanchick [21]

If elected to an executive position: would choose a fully technical team with ministers or secretaries who actually had expertise in their respective portfolios. People I had confidence in who could actually show results in different areas of government action. It would broaden the channels of popular participation, involve the population in government decisions. I would establish a management plan with goals to address the main issues of the place I was governing. And I would be very careful about the alliances I would make. I would not make alliances with the corrupt no matter what it cost. My biggest goal would be to finish the term with nothing to be ashamed of and very proud of.
