International women’s day??
Shouldn’t everyday be women’s day?
When I told a friend it was INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY a few years ago, he rejoined, “Isn’t that Valentine’s Day?” He has a point.
This year, the theme for this day is “Inspire Inclusion”. Seriously? The theme, though well-meaning, is wrong. It should have been “Inspire Recognition”.
Since Eve took the initiative and got Adam to eat “the fruit” women have always been significant.
They carry, bear and nurture children. They do most farm work. In Africa, they do most trading. And looking at trends, they are quietly taking over many professions– like medicine. They already have the major part of nursing and teaching.
Going back to our own history, the role of women, despite the low recognition, has been invaluable. Leaving the incomparable Nana Yaa Asantewaa who showed some balls ( or boobs) while Asantemen were quiet aside, who really believes men alone won our independence? Ama Selley Renner, Kate Swanzy , Elizabeth Ward-Brew and many others were great. And when the “Big 6” were picked up, it was a woman, Hannah Cudjoe, who organized the most effective protests. In the fight against the Archeampong dictatorship, one pivotal moment was when Mrs Nikoi said, to Archeampong, as Evans-Amfom tip-toed around the main point of the Professional Bodies, “Prof, sit down. General, when are you going to hand over?” In the exchanges that followed, she said, ” You are lucky you are the Head of State, otherwise, I would slap you with my slippers!” The General responded, “You are lucky you are a woman. Otherwise, I would slap you with my shoe!”. The room erupted in laughter. And who can forget Elizabeth Ohene’s serminal editorial on the AFRC killings while men cowered in fear? Or Winnie Mandela’s leadership of the ANC? No, the women have been there every step of the way.
Finally, thinking about my mother, Madam Abena Atta of blessed memory, the punditocracy and women’s movement has increasingly become less, not more reflective of real women and their challenges. There is a lot of noise today about France enshrining abortion rights in their constitution. Is this what the women of Fankeneko are worried about? What about the protections from sexual abuse, like fake women competing in women’s sports, the right to prenatal care and healthcare– like mammogram screening and free contraception and protection of women’s rights in divorce– from domestic violence and support for the millions of single mothers around the world struggling to bring up children? Those are the things that will lift women.
Too often, we confuse the aspirations of elite women for that of the masses of women who toil in silence for themselves and their families. Did the achievements and wealth of Diezani Alison-Madueke really help Nigerian women? Did the donkomi sales of state-owned enterprises in Ghana to 31st December chikas help the masses of women?
Let us recognize what women have always done. They are our mothers, sisters and partners.
Happy women’s day– everyday!
Arthur Kobina Kennedy– Abena Atta’s son.

Did you know these realities on CBD OIL and Full Spectrum CBD Hemp Oil? Cannabinoids are separated from hemp utilizing supercritical CO2 extraction. Thanks to modern technology, the resulting service is clean, free of unneeded waxes and heavy metals, naturally present in the plant, and the sucked liquid has a common, oily consistency. CBD oil contains cannabidiol as a base active ingredient and may consist of just trace quantities of tetrahydroxycannabidiol (THC). Functions as a memory enhancer, enhancing concentration and coordination of movements, eliminating inflammation and persistent infections. It improves the conduction of stimuli in the course of autoimmune illness (several sclerosis, amyotrophic sclerosis). It is suggested by doctors and pharmacists as an antioxidant and substance that obstructs the action of proinflammatory cytokines (proteins), e.g. in Crohn’s illness or ulcerative intestinal tract. RSO oil has a low CBD content, while high THC. Of course, the key job of RSO is to cause a psychedelic result, although it can also promote “sick” brain structures. It is worth knowing that supplementation of this type is mostly utilized by people to whom basic treatment does not bring relief in disease. The synergistic (enhancing) action of CBD and THC relative to each other is utilized here. Both cannabinoids can do much more together than when used separately. In addition, they jointly promote the division of inactive nerve cells, nurture the fatty envelope of the nerves, and prevent myelin inflammation that causes loss of function in some autoimmune illness. There are likewise stories where marijuana in its natural type softened spasticity, minimized the frequency of seizures and convulsions, and suppressed unpleasant scrapie in Parkinson’s disease. This is where the concept of receiving RSO, planned only for chronically ill people, originated . Both cannabis oil type CBD and RSO also consist of other cannabinoids, such as cannabichromene (CBC) and cannabigerol (CBG). The trick is not, however, that CBD frequently has actually a composition broadened to include flavones, flavonoids, terpenes, terpenoids, amino acids and omega acids. The distinction is mainly due to intentions assisting humankind to utilize one or the other product.

Manufacturers concentrate on the synergistic result of one substance relative to the other, while deserting the presence of CBC and CBG. Why such a choice? – Modern clinical research study reveals that CBD + THC cope with serious autoimmune diseases, while CBC or CBG show minimal activity in the presence of both substances, just like terpenes, flavones or flavonoids, for that reason their content in the service seems to be unneeded. In addition, the marijuana pressure from which THC and CBD are obtained include minimal quantities of other cannabinoids. RSO oil is totally unlawful in Poland, which is why it can not be acquired in any lawfully operating store on the marketplace. Obviously, there are a number of amateur methods for obtaining it, but it’s great to understand that compounds gotten synthetically in house laboratories are unsure, untested, and the impact unknown. The solvent for the production of home RSO is usually fuel, alcohol and even kerosene, which rather of treating, poison. Alcohols and their like impair cannabinoids, and so in reality, they do not bring anything new to the medical world. Marijuana oil has currently marked a brand-new period in which male ceased to fear what is unidentified, and started to rediscover what our ancestors had actually currently noticed and use the considerable potential, at very first glimpse, a little bizarre relationships, associated primarily with pathology. Medical marijuana, contrary to its name, does not imply fermented female inflorescences and leaves containing psychedelic substances coiled in so-called “Joints”, but an useful oil without psychoactive THC. A basic individual, after taking dosages of medical cannabis and achieving the suitable state of cannabinoids in the blood, can take pleasure in increased immunity, decreased vulnerability to cancer, postponed aging and decreased risk of stroke or heart attack.
