TRIBALISM IT'S ALWAYS WORTH REMEMBERING


                        TRIBALISM IT'S ALWAYS WORTH REMEMBERING 

We are witnessing a new wave of reversion to Tribalism around the Country of Sierra Leone. The same pattern can be seen even in the western World, especially the US polities. But let’s take a step back, between the 18th and 20th centuries, before the rise of Nation-States; the world was most tribal, and Tribes were united by Language Religion, Blood and Belief.
The past 250 to 300 years the belief of Nationhood took basic root around the world and members of the tribes stated to viewing themselves as single people with patriotic sentiment and duties towards their Homeland. This is true, even though from time to time, most people wondered what it must be like to live in a truly tribal society, but yet let us don’t go back to those parts of controversial issues of tribalism. For example as NYMAG.com mention online “the same has happened in a developed Democratic Society Northern Ireland and in one of the most successful Countries in Africa Kenya. Tribal Loyalties turned Beirut, Lebanon’s beautiful cosmopolitan Capital, turn into an urban wasteland in the 1970s.  They caused close to a million deaths in a few months in Rwanda in the 1990s” turn to Ethnic Cleansing. How on earth the two political parties is moving to such abominable idea. To all Sierra Leonean abroad and in the country get curious about how, the collective mind of bad connotation of Tribal war can become diminished if re-examine the past and change our attitude
