The NO BORDERS thought is an endeavor to dismantle the everyday boundaries that besiege our lived realities and restrict our individual freedoms. It is an effort to express the elementary basics of life namely water, earth and fire, which in themselves are "un-bordered" and accessible to all and sundry, albeit in varying degrees. It is a pity that even access to some of these elements, more so earth, have over time being restrict to a selected privileged few, and the worry is that this is bound to expand to other spheres of our lived necessary existence. NO BORDERS seeks to highlight the BORDERS that the “modern” world has imposed on our progeny and the masses at large, especially the voiceless and downtrodden people. Present day society is under a scepter of control facilitated through the mass media, suspect governments and other paraphernalia that threaten to alienate us from our fellow human beings, confining us to our four walled realities. A host of negative “phenomena” knows NO BORDERS. The HIV/Aids pandemic, for example, has NO BORDERS in its speedy quest to annihilate humankind. Polluters have NO BORDERS in their capitalist greed to the detriment of our precious “Ozone Layer”. Indeed, environmental degradation is governed by NO BORDERS, leading to acres of wastelands across the globe. Yet, we coil up within our constructed BORDERED realities, seemingly hoping that all these problems will sort themselves out, or just pass away, naïve of the grim futures we are quietly accepting for the next generations and us. NO BORDERS is a journey to the cognitive mental borders that have culled our freedom to think critically. It is a clarion call to humankind to re-waken and garner for emancipation from our “cultural and ethnic prisons”. It is a cry for reclaiming voices of the exploited and marginalized members of our society. It is the raising of a new flag, for a new space…with NO BORDERS. There shall be Medication given to those interested for peace and happiness. This is the way to free the land and lead to the ultimate liberation of the people. The Maasai is used as an example of a marginalized minority culture whose traditions and values are based on Humanity and freedom of movement. It is through unity that problems will be solved…commencing by the defenestrating of all BORDERS. It is only through the dispensing of Muti for peace and happiness that we shall be able to walk over this colonial obstacle that continues to slave and divide Humanity’s progression.
