Every day I see them, on the streets, tv, magazines , social media and every single place you can think of. Who or what am I talking about? The carriers, those who hold the future, the children and the youths.
I watch on as the future unfolds today from yesterday, I watch as a carrier, as one who holds a stake. Just as witnesses on steemit who have a copy of steemit's data on their servers and require all nodes to walk synchronously, so is the African child who has the blue print of the future , with his mind as the server, it is required that all carriers walk together in sync (unity) in other for the future to not only be bright but exist.

They hold nothing, some so little you can quantify such amounts of data in bits. The carriers are not carrying. Circumstances surrounding the black child has left him not capable of carrying the future. They have chosen to dump it in churches, mosques, rely on fate or trade it for todays favors from their fathers and grand fathers, those whose future they now live in.
He is ignorant! The schools provided to build our knowledge give us nothing but old laws repeated continuously at different levels of our education. The technologies available to us existed in medieval times and our teachers can simply pass as ignorant anywhere except here.
Weeeeew!! we have the Internet too, at least this got to us in time, but as i stroll through the African Internet space, I find that the carriers are not searching for ways to carry, not talking about ways to augment, build or develop the blue print of our future. Its always about a new dance, a viral sex video or celebrity gossips.
Very few are trying , and to them I say more strength.
Their fathers don't care, the watch them die in their numbers, plagued by ignorance, diseases, natural disasters , wars and even other carriers. They steal their money, feed them with ethnicity, nepotism and religious rivalry just to keep them busy while they enrich theirs and theirs alone.

I believe in our power to unite, if the carriers can rise to unity by applying the principle of the blockchain to power their dreams, ambitions and goals, set aside those things that try to break them and put on some humanity, the future will be safe.
We have played catch up for too long, its time we rose to contribute immensely to the advancement of humanity, eliminate the need for the term "third world countries" and above all provide an incubator for the carriers after us. Little by little from our corners should we serve as active witnesses taking giant strides according to our capabilities, then our FUTURE will be proud we came.
