Wangari Maathai: Nobel Laureate, Environmental Icon & Women’s Rights Pioneer

The Woman Who Planted Freedom: Wangari Maathai Forest of Resistance

Nyeri, Kenya • April 1977
Rain slicked the red clay as Wangari Maathai knelt, pressing a *mubiru* seedling into the earth. Around her, women from the National Council of Women watched, skepticism in their folded arms. “How will trees feed my children?” asked a grandmother with eyes like cracked pottery. Wangari’s hands stilled on the sapling’s stem:

“This fig will hold your soil when rains come. Its leaves will shade your beans. And when you sell its fruit…” She placed a coin in the woman’s palm. “…you’ll buy medicine for that cough.”

For Wangari, trees were never just trees. They were living libraries of ancestral wisdom, women’s banks in a patriarchal society, and quiet soldiers against dictators. By her death in 2011, she’d mobilized women to plant *over 51 million trees* – and became the first African woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize. This is how a Kikuyu girl became “Mama Miti” (Mother of Trees) and taught the world that ecology is the deepest form of justice.

Roots: The Girl Who Spoke to Soil (1940s)

Young Wangarĩ Muta’s world smelled of woodsmoke and wet ferns in Ihithe village. Her grandmother’s voice wove through the dark:

“See that fig? Its roots hold underground rivers. Break it, and the springs die.”

British colonists saw forests differently – as timber piles. Wangari watched white settlers clear sacred groves for tea plantations, unmoved when landslides buried Kikuyu farms. “Their machines sounded like monsters eating the earth,” she’d recall. At 8, she secretly replanted wild orchids uprooted by soldiers – her first act of ecological resistance.

The Kennedy Airlift: An Education in Irony (1960)

At 20, Wangari boarded a propeller plane to America – part of the “Kennedy Airlift” granting Africans Western education. In Kansas, biology labs dazzled her. But in Pittsburgh, she saw rust-belt rivers choked with sludge.

“You cleaned this?” she asked locals restoring the Monongahela.
“Took 20,000 of us suing factories,” they shrugged.

The lesson seared her: Environmentalism requires democracy. Yet back in Nairobi, her doctorate in anatomy meant nothing.

  • Job rejection: “Men won’t take orders from a woman professor.”
  • Marital ultimatum: Husband demanded she quit activism: “Choose: family or trees.”
  • Courtroom humiliation: A judge called her “too educated, too difficult, too un-Kenyan” during divorce proceedings.

Alone with three children, she sold corn by the roadside. At night, she studied satellite maps showing Kenya’s vanishing forests – 12,000 hectares lost yearly.

The Birth of Green Belt: Aprons as Armor (1977)

Drought shriveled the land in 1977. Rural women walked Wangari through their dying world:

  • Rivers once deep enough to baptize in, now dust trails
  • Fields stripped naked by erosion
  • Children listless from malnutrition

“Why come to me?” Wangari asked.
“You’re the one who went to America,” they said. “Bring back a solution.”

She handed out seedlings of native fig and acacia.
“This is your ‘America.’ Plant it.”

The Green Belt Movement was born with radical rules:

  1. Women-run nurseries: “You know the land’s pain better than any expert.”
  2. Payment per surviving tree: 4 Kenyan shillings (enough for schoolbooks or aspirin)
  3. Ecological literacy: Taught under acacia trees using Kikuyu parables

Government officials mocked: “Women gardening won’t fix poverty.”
Wangari shot back: “Neither will your Swiss bank accounts.”

Uhuru Park: When Mothers Stood Against Bulldozers (1989)

President Daniel arap Moi planned a 60-story monstrosity in Nairobi’s last green lung – Uhuru Park. Wangari wrote to foreign investors:

“This tower will cast literal and metaphorical darkness over Kenya.”

Retaliation was swift:

  • Police whippings: Batons split her scalp open during a park sit-in
  • Media smears: State radio called her “a witch who bewitches women”
  • Night terror: Thugs broke into her home screaming, “We’ll bury you where we bury dogs!”

Undeterred, she mobilized grandmothers to camp in the park. They sang Kikuyu lullabies as bulldozers revved:

“Mũkũyũ, mũkũyũ (Fig tree, fig tree)
Your roots are deeper than their greed…”

When international funders withdrew, the project died. Wangari hugged weeping women under the fig trees they’d saved. “This,” she whispered, “is what democracy smells like – wet soil and sweat.”

Sacred Groves & Cell Blocks: The Anatomy of Resistance

Karura Forest War (1999)

Moi’s cronies planned luxury homes in ancient Karura woods. Wangari led protesters into the forest.
That day:

  • Youths wielding machetes slashed her cheek open
  • Nuns locked arms around fig saplings
  • Clerics held Bibles aloft as tear gas canisters fell

Her journal entry: “Blood on my shirt, soil in my nails. We planted 7,000 seedlings where they beat us.”

Prison Botany

Jailed for “treason,” Wangari turned her cell into a nursery:

  • Smuggled seeds: Hidden in Bible pages
  • “Rainwater harvesting”: Using her rice bowl
  • Guerrilla planting: Tucking seedlings into cracks in the prison yard

“Every tree,” she told inmates, “is a flag of freedom no one can tear down.”

Wangari Maathai: Dancing in Banana Silk (2004)

October 8, 2004. Wangari was digging terraces when a reporter stumbled through the brush: “You’ve won the Nobel Peace Prize!”

In Oslo, she wore gowns spun from banana fiber and Luo reed necklaces. Her speech redefined peace:

“We plant because war begins where resources end. These trees are trenches dug for life.”

Back home, women danced with seedlings balanced on their heads. “They used to call us ignorant peasants,” one laughed. “Now we’re Nobel gardeners!”

The Unseen Wangari Maathai: Rituals & Vulnerabilities

  • Morning practice: Sipped chai while watching geckos hunt moths – “My daily meditation on balance”
  • Guilty pleasure: American crime novels (“After battling dictators, I deserve Sherlock Holmes!”)
  • Secret fear: “What if we’re too late?” she whispered to her daughter during cancer treatments
  • Sacred ritual: Washed her face with dew from fig leaves before protests

Her greatest grief? “That my ex-husband lived to see me win the Nobel… but never apologized.”

The Forest After the Planter (2011-Present)

Seeds Still Rising
  • Wanjira Mathai (daughter) leads the movement, expanding to 30 African nations
  • Urban “Seed Balls”: Schoolchildren wrap native seeds in charcoal dust, bombarding vacant lots
  • Digital Forests: Apps track community tree counts – 620,000+ planted monthly

Wangari Maathai Living Syllabus

Lesson Real-World Ripple
“Women’s hands heal earth” ➔ Kenya’s 2017 constitution guarantees women land ownership
“Plastic bags are colonialism’s ghost” ➔ Africa’s strictest plastic ban passed in Kenya (2017)
“Trees are peace treaties” ➔ “Forest Corridors” now bridge ethnic conflict zones

The Quiet Revolution: How Wangari Maathai Legacy Grows

In a Nairobi slum, 14-year-old Aisha tends neem trees piercing concrete:

“Mama Maathai said trees breathe hope. So I breathe with them.”

In Liberia’s postwar fields, women plant “Peace Palms” using Wangari’s nursery model.

At COP28, Kenyan delegates hand fig saplings to oil executives: “Plant this instead of drilling.”

Wangari’s true monument? The ordinary courage she seeded:

  • A Maasai grandmother suing miners polluting her river
  • Schoolgirls demanding climate curriculum
  • Prisoners growing food forests behind bars

Wangari Maathai: The Fig That Outlived the Planter

September 25, 2011. Wangari’s coffin – woven from papyrus reeds and olive branches – lowered into earth she’d fought to save. Today, a fig tree grows from her grave, its branches sheltering:

  • Women signing land deeds
  • Children painting seedlings on protest signs
  • Activists plotting their next “guerrilla gardening” raid

Wind rustles the leaves. Some swear it whispers:

“Until the soil is free, keep planting.”

Plant Wangari Maathai Legacy:

  • 🌱 Support: greenbeltmovement.org
  • 📚 Read: Unbowed (her raw, poetic memoir)
  • ✊ Act: Join “Seed Bomb Saturdays” in your city

“You cannot enslave a mind that knows itself.
You cannot uproot a people who plant their dreams.
We are the soil. We are the rain.
We are the forest waking.”
— Wangari Maathai’s final journal entry

Angela Davis women race and class

Angela Davis

 Angela Davis ideas are shaping today’s talks on feminism, racism, and classism. Her work gives a detailed look at how these factors are connected. So Davis’s contribution to understanding the experiences of women of colour.

The Revolutionary Voice of Angela Davis

Here Angela Davis’s story is one of courage, activism, and a never-ending fight for justice. Her birth on January 26, 1944, in Birmingham, Alabama, she faced racism, a society division. This experience shaped her future activism.

Early Life and Political Development

Teaching Career and Political Persecution

Despite facing political backlash, Davis continued teaching. Her experiences shaped her activist philosophy. The role of education in liberation

Historical Context of “Women, Race, and Class”

At that time ‘Women, Race, and Class’ came out was full of big changes. So civil rights movement had won big victories. But then, a conservative backlash came, trying to undo those wins.

Publication During the Conservative Backlash

In the early 1980s, the US saw a big rise in conservative ideas. This affected social justice movements a lot. Davis’s book was a voice of reason. During this time, pointing out what mainstream feminism was missing.

Post-Civil Rights Movement Era

After the civil rights movement, things got complicated. Despite progress, many African Americans faced big barriers to equality.

Some of these challenges were:

  • Economic inequality
  • Racial profiling and police brutality
  • Limited access to quality education and healthcare

Rise of the New Right and Reagan Administration

Then New Right and the Reagan administration brought a big shift to the right. This time saw more pushback against social justice and a step back from progressive policies.

Response to Limitations in Feminist Discourse

Her time ,Davis spoke out against the feminism. Yes, she said it ignored women of color and working-class women.

Critiquing White Middle-Class Feminism

In this, Davis showed how race, class, and gender all mix together. She pushed for feminism to include more voices.

Building on Black Feminist Traditions

Here Davis built on the strong foundation of Black feminist thought. She used the work of earlier activists and thinkers to deepen our understanding of women’s lives.

Core Thesis and Theoretical Framework

It offers a detailed analysis that is very influential today.

Intersectionality Before Kimberlé Crenshaw

Davis was a pioneer in intersectionality before Kimberlé Crenshaw even used the term. Her work showed how different oppressions combine, hitting black women the hardest.

Rejecting Single-Issue Politics

Davis argues against focusing on just one issue. She believes we need to look at all the ways people are oppressed. This way, we can truly help those who are marginalized.

Marxist and Black Feminist Foundations

Davis uses both Marxist feminism and black feminist theory to understand women’s lives. She combines these perspectives to create a strong framework for analysis.

Class Analysis and Anti-Capitalism

Davis focuses a lot on class analysis and being anti-capitalist. She shows how capitalism makes things worse for women of color. She calls for a big change in the economic system.

Building on Work of Black Women Intellectuals

Davis also draws from other black women thinkers. She adds to their ideas, making black feminist thought even stronger.

Critique of the Suffrage Movement

Angela Davis

Angela Davis looks closely at the suffrage movement. She finds racism and class divisions in early feminism. This is key to understanding past feminist efforts and their role today.

Racism Within Early Feminist Organizing

The early feminist movement was complex. It was tainted by racism, focusing mainly on white women’s rights. Black women’s issues were often ignored, seen as less important.

Frederick Douglass and the Women’s Convention

Frederick Douglass, a key abolitionist, joined the Women’s Convention. His presence showed the link between rights struggles. Yet, it also highlighted the conflict between women’s rights and abolition.

Exclusionary Tactics of White Suffragists

White suffragists used tactics that pushed black women out. This was done either on purpose or by neglect. It weakened the movement and kept racial divisions alive.

Class Divisions Among Women Activists

Class differences also plagued the suffrage movement. This caused disagreements between reform and revolution.

Working-Class Women’s Different Priorities

Working-class women faced unique struggles. They were exploited economically and worked in poor conditions. These issues were not always the focus of the suffrage movement.

Tensions Between Reform and Revolution

The movement was split between reformers and revolutionaries. This split showed deep class divisions and different views on change.

Black Women’s Experience of Slavery and Resistance

Davis’s analysis shows how black women faced double oppression under slavery. They were slaves and women at the same time. Their enslavement was brutal, mixing racism and sexism.

Gendered Dimensions of Enslavement

Black women’s enslavement was marked by specific exploitation and violence. They faced sexual violence and were forced into reproductive labour.

Community Building Under Oppression

Black women built and kept communities strong under slavery. It shows their fight against oppression and their strength.

The Myth of the Black Rapist

Post-Reconstruction Propaganda

After Reconstruction, propaganda showed black men as rapists. This fueled racial tensions and led to violence against them.

Lynching as Social Control

Lynching became a tool to control society. It was used to scare African Americans, take away their rights, and keep white people in power.

Impact on Both Black Men and Women

The myth of rapist hurt both black men and women. It was not just about men; women faced racism and sexism too.

Criminalization of Black Masculinity

The myth made black men seem violent or criminal. It turned black masculinity into a negative stereotype.

Black Women’s Anti-Lynching Campaigns

Black women fought back against lynching and the myths that supported it. They organized and fought for justice.

Aspect Impact on Black Men Impact on Black Women
Lynching Subjected to violent lynching based on false accusations Lost loved ones, faced trauma, and participated in anti-lynching campaigns
Stereotyping Criminalized and stereotyped as rapists Faced both racism and sexism, with their experiences often erased
Social Control Terrorized and controlled through violence and fear Experienced social and economic marginalization

Reproductive Rights and Forced Sterilization

Angela Davis talks about how forced sterilization affects women, mainly black women. She says controlling women’s bodies is a way to oppress them. This is true for minority and poor women.

Eugenics and Population Control Policies

Eugenics and population control have shaped the history of forced sterilization. These ideas were used to justify controlling certain groups. They were seen as scientific and for the betterment of society.

Targeting of Poor and Minority Women

Poor and minority women faced the brunt of these policies. Sterilization was often forced or done without their consent. This shows how society ignored their right to control their bodies.

Government-Sponsored Sterilization Programs

Government programs made forced sterilization worse. They aimed to control population growth in specific groups. This was done under the cover of welfare reform or public health.

Different Meanings of Reproductive Freedom

Davis points out that reproductive freedom is complex. The birth control movement was seen as a step forward. But, it was also linked to eugenic ideas.

Birth Control Movement’s Complicated Legacy

The birth control movement fought for women’s right to choose. Yet, it sometimes worked with those who wanted to control certain populations. This shows we need to understand reproductive rights deeply.

Black Women’s Fight for Bodily Autonomy

Black women have fought hard for control over their bodies. They want to make their own reproductive choices.

In summary, Davis’s work on reproductive rights and forced sterilization is key. It shows how race, class, and gender intersect in reproductive health.

Domestic Labor and Women’s Economic Position

Angela Davis’s work looks closely at how domestic labour affects women’s economic status. She points out that capitalism plays a big role. Davis believes that not valuing unpaid household work is key to understanding women’s economic struggles.

Unpaid Household Work and Capitalism

It sees these tasks as not being economic. This undervaluing affects women’s ability to be economically independent.

Double Burden for Working Women

Working women have to handle both their jobs and unpaid household work. This double duty makes economic inequality worse.

Race and Class Hierarchies in Domestic Service

Domestic labour experiences differ greatly among racial and socioeconomic groups. Black women, in particular, have often been stuck in domestic service roles.

Black Women as Domestic Workers

Black women have been disproportionately in domestic work, facing exploitation and marginalization. Davis stresses the importance of understanding their experiences through an intersectional lens.

Exploitation and Resistance Strategies

Despite the obstacles, black women domestic workers have found ways to resist. They’ve organized labour unions and challenged unfair practices.

Aspect Impact on Women Impact on Black Women
Unpaid Household Work Devaluation of their work Exacerbated exploitation
Domestic Service Economic dependency Racial and class hierarchies
Resistance Strategies Labor organizing Community solidarity

Education and Liberation in Angela Davis’s Analysis

Education is very important in Davis’s view. It’s a key tool in the fight against oppression. Angela Davis sees education as a powerful way to resist and gain freedom. It shapes how we think as individuals and as a group.

Knowledge as a Tool for Resistance

Education is more than just learning facts. It’s about building critical consciousness and giving people the power to question things.

Educational Disparities Along Race and Class Lines

Davis also talks about the big gaps in education based on race and class. These issues include:

Historical Barriers to Education

For a long time, quality education has been hard to get for those who are marginalized. This has kept oppression going.

Contemporary Educational Inequality

Today, we see inequality in education. It shows up in how schools are funded, who gets to go to college, and how students are disciplined.

Recepton and Academic Impact

Initial Reviews and Controversies

When the book first came out, opinions were mixed. Some people loved its fresh insights, while others found it too radical.

Mainstream Media Response

Media reactions were all over the place. Some saw its importance, while others thought it was too extreme.

Academic Debates Generated

Academics had a lot to say about Davis’s ideas.It has changed how we think and talk about these subjects.

Reshaping Academic Discourse

The book’s focus on intersectionality was ahead of its time. It laid the groundwork for understanding how different forms of oppression connect. Davis’s work on black women under slavery and her critique of racism in feminism have been key to developing intersectional theory.

Contemporary Relevance of Davis’s Framework

Angela Davis’s ideas on women, race, and class are key in today’s activism. Her work helps us see how social justice issues are connected.

Application to Modern Social Movements

Davis’s ideas are big in movements. These efforts show the fight for racial and economic fairness. Prison abolition also draws from her views on the prison system.

Reproductive Justice Movement

The reproductive justice movement benefits from Davis’s work on reproductive rights. Her insights on forced sterilization are also important.

Ongoing Struggles for Intersectional Justice

Intersectional justice is a big deal today. So we’re fighting against economic inequality.

Continuing Relevance of Davis’s Analysis

On todays issue, Davis’s work is vital for understanding . As Barbara Ransby says, “Angela Davis’s work shows the power of looking at things together.”

Conclusion: The Enduring Legacy of “Women, Race, and Class”

As a leader, it shows her as a leader in feminist theory. That book’s ideas about how different kinds of oppression work together are very important.

Here Davis’s work helps us see how women. Mainly those of colour, face racism and classism.About feminism, she changed the way we think. Her work has inspired many scholars and activists to come.

Now, Davis’s ideas are used in many social justice efforts. This includes Black Lives Matter and fights for reproductive rights. Her work has helped change how we see intersectionality and its role in feminism.

Then lasting impact of “Women, Race, and Class” proves Davis’s ideas are powerful. There continue to shape feminist theory and social justice movements today.

Toni Morrison: Giving Voice to the Voiceless

/0 Comments/in , /by

Who Was Toni Morrison?

Tony Morrison

Early Life and Education

Chloe Ardelia Wofford, who became known as Toni Morrison, was born on Feb. 18, 1931, in Lorain, Ohio, a racially mixed industrial city to which her father had moved to take a welding job and where her mother was a homemaker and a part-time seamstress. Her family surrounded her with a deep-seated love of storytelling, folklore, and African-American folk culture.

Morrison’s father, George Wofford, regaled her with African American folktales and songs, which would later shape her literary mode. Her mother, Ramah Willis Wofford, also fostered a sense of academic excellence and artistic curiosity.

A talented student, Morrison went to Howard University in Washington, D.C., where she studied English as a major and minored in classics. It was in Howard that she adopted the name “Toni,” a shortened form of her baptismal name, Anthony.

She would later receive a Master of Arts in English from Cornell University in 1955. Her master’s thesis was about Virginia Woolf and William Faulkner — modernists who would exert a shaping effect on her own nonlinear, multivoiced narratives.

Her early years formed an acute awareness of race and gender dynamics that would equip her to challenge the literary status quo.

She later went on to teach English at Texas Southern University, and later Howard University, where she mentored future leaders and activists.

That grounding in education, tradition and intense thinking formed the scaffolding for her future as one of the most influential literary minds of the motley 20th century.

Pulitzer and Nobel Prizes

Morrison’s literary work was acknowledged, and celebrated, at the highest levels.

Her novel Beloved (1987), for which she won a Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, ranks among those highly regarded for depiction of African-American culture and history. The book had been inspired by the harrowing, true story of Margaret Garner, a slave who in 1856 fled one of her owners but was recaptured and who then killed her own child rather than see it returned to bondage.

The novel explored memory, trauma, silence and motherhood, and the conscious and subconscious mind, and was written in Morrison’s lyrical prose signature.

Then, in 1993, the Nobel Prize in Literature was awarded to Morrison — who became the first African American woman in history to be given the prize.

The Nobel Committee lauded her as one who “in novels characterized by visionary force and poetic import, gives life to an essential aspect of American reality.”

And the victory was not just personal: It was a breakthrough for Black literature around the world. Her victory affirmed the importance of telling previously marginalized stories in history and literature.

Literature as Power: Morrison’s Aims 100 Which of these is central to power?

Toni Morrison frequently insisted that she did not write for storytelling, but for truth-telling.

She deployed literature to confront systemic injustices, re-write marginalized histories and present Black life as worthy of serious artistic attention.

Instead of making the Black experiences palatable for a white audience, she unapologetically wrote for Black readers — producing material that asserted identity, dignity and resistance.

Morrison had said, “I slipped into the border, stood at the edge, claimed it as central.”

Both texts challenged the boundaries of what could be seen as the center to the literary world — not just writing Black characters into traditional stories, but making stories entirely in the shape of Black consciousness.

She upset the standard gaze, refused to render her characters accessible through white lenses.

This was literature as cultural activism.

She also believed that language was a realm of oppression and liberation. Her careful language — layered, metaphoric, musical — underscored how words could free the mind and the memory.

Morrison’s works weren’t political slogans; they were profoundly human and fabulously crafted stories that had the force of cultural landmarks.

By narrating the inner lives of Black people, she demonstrated that it was possible for dignity to survive dehumanization.

Major Works and Their Impact

Tony Morrison

Beloved, The Bluest Eye, Song of Solomon

The Bluest Eye (1970)

It is her first novel, and it follows the story of Pecola Breedlove, a young Black girl who yearns for blue eyes.

Taking place in the Ohio of the 1940s, the novel deals with the notion of beauty standards, racial self-hatred and systemic abuse.

Morrison provides an unsparing critique of how media, society and, by extension, even family, can warp a child’s sense of their self-worth.

The novel has endured as a mainstay on high school and college reading lists — despite frequent challenges and bans over its unblinking depiction of sexual violence and racism.

Song of Solomon (1977)

It was this novel for which Morrison received national acclaim and the National Book Critics Circle Award.

It tells the story of Milkman Dead, a man searching to make sense of his family’s history and of himself. The book is an investigation of ancestry, legacy and the quest for meaning in a fractured world.

Loosely based on the myth of Song of Solomon combines realistic narration with African-American folklore, and the oral tradition is one of her most structurally experimental works.

Beloved (1987)

Arguably Morrison’s masterpiece, Beloved studies the high price of slavery as Sethe, a former slave is haunted by the ghost of her dead child.

Memory and trauma, sacrifice and the redemption of the supernatural all abound beneath the surface.

Morrison’s shattered timelines are the perfect allegory for shattering trauma and identity.

The novel is emotionally high-pitched, structurally intricate and ethically challenging — in other words, everything you could want it to be if you’re someone who reads to be related to in the most profound way possible.

Other Notable Works:

  • Tar Baby (1981) – class, colorism, and post-colonial identity.
  • Jazz (1992) – A musical, non-linear tale of 1920s Harlem.
  • A Mercy (2008) – This novel is about the concept of slavery in its earliest struts.
  • Home (2012) – The story of a Korean War veteran’s spiritual recovery.

All her novels are acts of textual resistance and meditation on history.

Black Identity and Experience

Morrison’s literature did not marginalize black identity — it was central. She bucked stereotypes, instead crafting characters who were complex, flawed, smart and strong. They were not stand-ins for ideas or issues — they were complete people.

Her work unpacked:

  • Anti-Blackness in Black communities
  • The legacies of slavery
  • Gender and patriarchy
  • Family Mobility and Displacement

For example, in Sula (1973), she examines female friendship and social deviance in a small Black community. Sula Peace herself, as a character, defies every norm — revealing how Black women negotiate society’s expectations and punishment.

In Paradise” (1997), Morrison examines how even utopian Black communities can marginalize and oppress women. Morrison made it clear that liberation was not only political, it was also psychological and cultural. She had frequently written about the friction between individual freedom and the constraints of community.

Her writing underscored that Black people were not simply stereotypes or victims, but a people of resilience, creativity and humanity.

Narrative Style and Technique of Morrison

Language, Silence, and the Unwritten

Toni Morrison’s style is unmistakable.

She employed non-linear structure, stream-of-consciousness and multiple perspectives to convey the complexity of Black experience.

She wrote rhythmically, inspired by African American oral traditions, gospel, jazz and blues.

She made biblical and mythic allusions while also rooting her stories firmly in what Beck calls lived realities.

Morrison mirrors psychic trauma with silence and fragmentation in Beloved.

The narrative unfurls in layers, through the voices of the living and the dead.

In Jazz she follows the jazz music’s spirit of improvisation- unpredictable and circular, but still as one.

She was also a hider and an omitter.

What characters don’t say — or can’t say — says volumes. Morrison asked her readers to hear the silences, the unspeakables, the emotionally fraught absences.

Her work was not to be passively consumed.

It required close reading, emotional involvement and ethical consideration

As Editor and Cultural Critic

Advocating for Black Writers at Random House

Morrison previously worked as a senior editor at Random House from 1967 to 1983, before her literary fame.

She paved the way for Black writers, publishing seminal works such as:

The Autobiography of Angela Davis

The Black Book: An Anthology of Black History

Books by Toni Cade Bambara, Gayl Jones and Muhammad Ali

She leveraged that position not just to amplify voices but to change the industry’s focus.

In an era when publishers routinely ignored or tokenized Black voices, Morrison made sure to make them impossible to ignore.

Her editorial work helped extend the cultural footprint of Black literature and political thought.

Quotes that Shaped Conversations

Toni Morrison’s interviews, speeches and essays are often quoted — they compact insight into that hard, sharp nugget of phrase. “The purpose of freedom is to free someone else.”

“If you have power and you don’t have the ability to be empathetic, then it’s dangerous.” “Definitions reside with the definers, not the defined.” Power up and speak out with these empowering activist mantras.

Her nonfiction collections, such as Playing in the Dark (1992) and The Origin of Others (2017), censure how whiteness and Blackness have been made in literature. She scrutinized how white American literature had used Blackness as a foil to define itself — and called for a shift in the literary imagination.

Impact on Modern Authors

Teaching and public outreach

During her time as an educator at Princeton University from 1989 to 2006, Morrison showed great care and rigor in mentoring young writers.

Also she founded the Princeton Atelier, a program that gathered artists in different fields to explore creativity in novel ways.

Writers such as:

  • Jesmyn Ward
  • Colson Whitehead
  • Ta-Nehisi Coates
  • Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

each of whom have cited Morrison as a seminal influence. Continuously, she taught them to write bold narratives, not to wait for permission — to demand the power to make their lives on the page.

Her public talks and appearances often spoke not only to national crises — over education, over racism, over war — but also to how she personally was made to sound mute. Merely she made clear, calm forceful argument an incentive to think harder, not to feel more. Even at political times, Morrison remained engaged with the ethics of storytelling, avoiding slogans in favour of layered truths.

Legacy  Literature and Society

The influence of Toni Morrison extends well beyond literature. Altered she the way we think about race, memory and identity. So she shifted how institutions teach literature, how critics evaluate cultural worth and how writers build stories.

Her work is read around the world. Papers are held by Princeton.That documentary Toni Morrison: The Pieces I Am still brings her to younger generations.And she continues to live on in movements such as:#BlackLivesMatter: base where her words inspire resistance and healing.

Diversity in Publishing: A Younger Generation of Writers “You have to be really good” above and beyond her editorial legacy to triumph over gatekeepers.Here Black Women Writers’ Renaissance: An era she helped to both spark and maintain.Merely Toni Morrison didn’t give voice to the voiceless.So she demonstrated that they had been talking all along — and demanded that the world finally listen.

Conclusion: The Power of the Written Word

Not of literature’s irrelevance, Morrison’s career is evidence. But of its power to:into each to:to make and break entire cultures. With moral clarity, she wrote with purpose, edited with honor, spoke.

Her life’s work is a travel guide for any writer who wants to write honestly in a world that frequently values silence; who wants to interrogate their own prejudices and assumptions. So she demonstrated that language could be a terrain of struggle, remembrance and liberation.

And her legions of adoring followers, myself included, were faced with the prospect of a world in which there would be no new great book titles about DeCamp.

Who Is Malala Yousafzai? A True Story of Courage and Education

/0 Comments/in , /by

Malala Yousafzai Isabel Wilkerson: A Race Change Agent

Malala Yousafzai (Urdu: ملالہ یوسف زئی‎; born 12 July 1997) is a Pakistani activist for female education and the youngest Nobel Prize laureate. And she is a global champion for girls’ education, particularly in areas of conflict and gender inequity. From an attempted assassination by the Taliban at 15, to the founding of the Malala Fund, her life is an incredible story of resilience, purpose, and international influence.

For the most part, this biography focuses on her life through key events and accomplishments that tell the story of her legacy.

Malala Yousafzai: Early Life and Background

Malala was born on July 12, 1997, in Mingora, the largest city in the Swat Valley of northwestern Pakistan. Her father, Ziauddin Yousafzai, was an educator and a human rights activist who opened and operated a school. He was a significant force in supporting Malala’s education and activism.

Malala was very curious, articulate, and dedicated to learning from a young age. She often attended school meetings and public discussions with her father. Our home was a place where we would discuss the political and social issues in Pakistan, particularly in relation to women.

Swat Valley had been a tourist destination before, famed for its natural beauty, but the Taliban started to get a foothold there in about 2007. Girls were barred from attending school under their rule, and citizens lived under strict interpretations of Sharia law. Women had to hide, and schools were bombed.

Malala would not be silenced, however, no matter the risks. She felt that education was a right, not a privilege.

The Initial Steps of Activism — Blogging for BBC Urdu

In 2009, when she was just 11, Malala began writing a blog under the pseudonym “Gul Makai” for the BBC Urdu service. Her entries described life under Taliban occupation. She wrote about the fears that she and other girls shared, about how schools were closing and what education meant to her.

Her blog drew international attention to the crisis in Swat. Though she used a pen name, her identity was ultimately revealed. Her courage turned her into a symbol of defiance against extremism. She began appearing on Pakistani media and kept advocating for girls’ education.

As her profile increased, so did the dangers. The Taliban made threats against her and her family. Yet she refused to back down.

Malala Yousafzai: The Attack That Sent Shock Waves

On Oct. 9, 2012, Malala was on a school bus with friends when a masked gunman climbed on and asked them, “Who is Malala?” He then fired at her head, neck and shoulder.

The attack sent shock waves through Pakistan and the world. Malala was critically injured and airlifted to Birmingham, UK, for treatment. The bullet was removed by surgeons from her head and she endured months of recovery, including reconstructive surgery and speech therapy.

Instead of being silenced, her voice emerged ever more powerful. The effort to silence her activism only magnified it. World leaders, human rights organisations, and millions of supporters drove behind her fight.

Recovery and Ascending as a Global Advocate

Malala was recuperating when her family decided to transfer to UK for security purposes. In 2013, she re-entered public life: Malala Day, her 16th birthday, she delivered an impassioned speech before the United Nations. In her speech, she said:

‘You can be that one child, one teacher, one book, one pen that can change the world.’

In 2013, she co-wrote her memoir, I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban, a bestseller that was translated into many languages.

She also met world leaders, including former U.S. president Barack Obama, Queen Elizabeth II, and UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. Wherever she traveled, her message stayed the same: every girl is entitled to 12 years of free, quality education.

Malala Yousafzai Fund: The Systemic Change You Need

In 2013, Malala and her father started the Malala Fund, a non-profit that seeks to dismantle the barriers keeping girls out of school. The fund supports education programs and grassroots initiatives in countries such as Nigeria, Pakistan, India, and Afghanistan.

Key areas of work include

Agility in reactiveness to changing needs of the community

Funding for STEM and leadership programs for adolescent girls

Serves as an advocate for policy shifts within both the national and international sphere

The Malala Fund also publishes Assembly, a digital publication in which girls tell their stories and share their perspectives and experiences. The fund does not stop at charity; it builds leadership by creating a space where youth voices are heard.

Awards and Global Recognition

‘Malala’ has received some of the world’s most important awards.

In 2014 she became the youngest-ever Nobel Peace Prize laureate, at the age of 17. She was awarded jointly with Indian activist Kailash Satyarthi for their fight against the oppression of children and youth.

Other awards and honors include:

United Nations Messenger of Peace

Glamour Woman of the Year

Honorary Canadian Citizenship

Philadelphia Liberty Medal

Humanitarian of the Year for Harvard

She has bona fide cred as one of the most influential people in the world, appearing repeatedly on Time magazine’s annual in-crowd list.

But no matter how popular she becomes, Malala is down-to-earth. She frequently reminds listeners that the work is not yet done — and that it’s not about her but the millions of girls who still do not have basic rights.

Oxford Life and Personal Milestones

Malala graduated from the University of Oxford in 2020, where she held a degree in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE). She has spoken about how her years in university were difficult but also fulfilling.

She married Asser Malik, a Pakistani entrepreneur in the cricket world, in 2021. The couple lives in the UK.

Despite a schedule that spans the globe, Malala also reads works of fiction, watches the game of cricket, and enjoys time with her family. Her private life demonstrates that activism and normalcy can coexist.

Her Lasting Impact — and Ongoing Mission — As a Single Nobel Laureate

Malala never stops working for education equality, women’s rights, and global peace. She presents at global platforms such as the G7, World Economic Forum and UN General Assembly.

She also raises awareness of the intersection of education and climate, conflict, and technology. Her campaigns are grounded in working with local activists — people most familiar with the issues.

Malala has indicated really youth voices could make change in real world. She’s part of a new generation of world leaders who are transforming activism in the 21st century: noisy, informed, inclusive and focused on solutions.

Her legacy is already visible — in the rebuilt schools, the changed policies and the millions of girls who now believe they have the power to lead.

Lessons from Malala Yousafzai

There are important lessons that the story of Malala can teach us:

Find your voice, even when it’s dangerous. Silence enables injustice.

Education should be a right, not a privilege. It changes people and cultures.

Young people can lead. Impact doesn’t require age or position.

Trauma can become strength. What you make it through can inform your purpose.

Her journey is a testament that courage is never the absence of fear; it’s bearing the darkness when the stakes are highest.

Conclusion

From a schoolgirl in Swat Valley to a Nobel Peace Prize winner, Malala Yousafzai’s life is a portrait of courage, resilience, and purpose. Her voice resounds across classrooms, parliaments, and communities of the world.

She continues to struggle — not for accolades — but to guarantee that no girl is refused her right to learn. In a world of innumerable challenges, Malala shows that one person with resolve can indeed make a difference.

Frida Kahlo: The Individual Who Depicted Pain

Frida Kahlo

Frida Kahlo is a name that evokes fervent emotions. Her paintimgs are a mixture of different striking colours. Along with deep and meaningful feelings. Beyond just a painter Kahlo, was an artwork creator, a revolutionary figure and a source of strength emboided into one. Her creations even today burns worlds fabricated with made up norms, enabling her followers and crippling the forces that shut down put forth ideas. But why is her art highly regarded? How did the problems she faced in her everyday life help in shaping her artistic side?

This blog highlights the life of Frida Kahlo and goes deep into the character of the artist. The despair that gave birth to her work of art. So sadness that heavily impacted her art in the context of Mexican culture, feminism and culture.

Frida Kahlo: The Woman Who Painted Pain

Any person would identify Frida Kahlo’s art without a briefing. Her work encompasses bold brush strokes, vivid colours. And a direct confrontation with death, identity, and life itself. Kahlo’s influence touches far more than the paintings she has done. But also the scope of feminism, modernized Mexico, and contemporary art.

In studying her life, her works, and the impact she left behind. One can appreciate not only the artistic talents from Kahlo. But her bravery and the love of fire she showed through his actions. This post dives deep into Frida Kahlo’s layers. How her art challenged the narratives of identity and expression, hoping pain into beauty.

Frida Kahlo : A Life Shaped by Adversity

From her childhood years to the day she died. The entire life of Frida Kahlo was full of extreme difficulties. Coming to the world on the calender date of June 1907. Her origin of birth is cited as Coyoacan which is located in Mexico. Both her life as well as her personal identity was filled with challenges that required attention. When she was just about to turn six years. She meets with polio which in turn brings along a whole new life. Full of complications such as limp. But this is still not even close to being the end.

In 1925, Kahlo was involved in a near-fatal bus accident. Which resulted in a plethora of life-altering challenges. Injuries such as her severely broken spine, pelvis. Other fractures set her on a course for lifelong chronic pain, over thirty surgeries. Devastatingly losing her able-bodied identity. Kahlo started her grueling recovery process by painting allowing her to escape her current reality. She found a way to hypnotize herself using only a bed, mirror. Then paint transforming it into a makeshift studio. From that moment, a new life had burst into creation. Where alchemical wonders awaited while self exploration through her body. Turned canvas began using a mirror as a portal for all emotions waiting to be unleashed.

A Love Story with Diego Rivera

Frida’s deeply passionate marriage with Diego Rivera- the Mexican muralist is what Kahlo is most known for. The pair had their first encounter after Rivera was invited to give Frida feedback on some of her paintings. There was a strong connection from the beginning albeit due to differing ages and chaotic lives, history has shown it was a bond that could not be broken. In describing Diego, Frida once called him “the second accident” in her life which quite frankly paints a picture of how complicated yet strong the bond was.

While infidelity from both resistant sides while dating was common, mutual respect for the other’s art was also present which kept the unusual partnership sane. Together, they became cultural icons in Mexico representing revolutionary politics and artistic innovation.

The Art of Frida Kahlo

Frida Kahlo

Reforming Pain into Beautiful Masterpieces

What set Kahlo’s unique self portraits apart from her contemporaries was the rawness encapsulated within without any attempts of caging it behind masks. Her art transcinds the boundaries of brush and canvas, expressing every fragment of her damaging past. Close to a third of her works are self-portraits that contributed to telling her life story where pain could only be euphorically felt but painfully seen. She blurring the lines of portrayel, pain and masochistic freedom with pieces like The Broken Column and Henry Ford Hospital where the deep excruciating agony reality becomes art. Her self-representations portray her body diamentoptionally where underneath society’s shackled disguise of subservience lies strength of merciless tenderness seeking to be unleashed eternally.

Unlike other artists of her time, Kahlo did not idealize beauty. Rather, Frida vulnerably confronted the harsh realities of life and painted them, turning what would be considered her weakness into her greatest weapon. The prominent unibrow and faint mustache depicted in her portraits, which defy conventional standards of beauty, still serve as a reminder of self-acceptance.

The Defining Features of Frida Kahlo Work

Some tend to categorize Frida Kahlo’s artwork into various genres which is something Kahlo frequently argued against, for example: looking at it through the lens of surrealism. To put it in the words of Kahlo herself: “ I never paint dreams.” “I paint my own reality.” Her art reflected how she explored her identity, intertwining elements of life regarding identity, bodily pain, and emotional suffering.

Her paintings are rich with multifaceted symbolism. From thorned adornments bearing necklaces to trees that appear to be rooted, each feature of her compositions was laden with significant personal and cultural stories. Kahlo commonly employed disturbing imagery, often capturing the attention of the observer and daring them to confront her pain coexisting with her strength.

Frida Kahlo Iconic Works and Their Stories

The Two Fridas (1939)

Perhaps one of her most notable works, The Two Fridas brings to life a dual self-portrait. One Frida dons a traditional Tehuana dress which serves to strengthen her Mexican identity, while the other sports a Eurocentric gown embodying a more contemporary version of herself. The two figures are joined with an open heart and an artery connecting the two, however, revealing a division within Kahlo’s identity. This particular painting captures a theme of duality and self-perception.

Frida Kahlo : Henry Ford Hospital (1932)

Intricate and twisted, this piece deeply reflects Kahlo’s struggles both emotionally and physically after suffering a miscarriage. The empty landscape, paired with dismembered symbolic objects such as a slug and shattered pelvis, wholly showcase loss and agony.

A love letter to Mexican identity

Frida Kahlo’s paintings actively pay homage to her Mexican roots.From the indigenous patterns and symbols to the traditional Tehuana dresses, her artworks tell the story of Mexico. Self Portrait with the Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird and The Two Fridas are rich in identity, duality and heritage.

Kahlo developed an enduring interest in Mexican Indigenous culture while married to Diego Rivera. This connection was displayed at The couple’s home ‘La Casa Azul’ which is now the Frida Kahlo museum. She kept an astonishing assortment of indigenous art and the architecture of her house was Mexian, thus pridefully displaying the vibrancy of the cultures.

Representation of Mexican Identity

Kahlo’s image is still tightly fitted to the Mexican identity. She proudly claimed an exceptional place in history of art for Mexicans, where her inheritance gained life in the shining colors and patterns in the Zapotec civilization.

Her paintings featured monkeys, parrots, and other forms of traditional jewelry, and she frequently donned indigenous attire. As a museum, The Blue House remains a symbol of her enduring love for and celebration of Mexico.

Through her art, she was a living link to the past as well as the future. As a result, she became a poster woman for the nation and a source of pride during the country’s harsh political phase.

Kahlo’s work encapsulates suffering and self-acceptance without reservation, transcultural boundaries after her death in 1954.

Frida Kahlo and Feminism

Frida Kahlo became a proponent of individuality, equality, and freedom of gender long before feminism became popular worldwide. Exposing the struggles and triumphs of womanhood gained her recognition as an emerging feminist icon.

Kahlo’s art often challenged gender norms. In her painting of Self Portrait with Cropped Hair she portrays herself in a man’s suit, cutting off her hair as a defiant wink to femininity and self-expectation. She deeply resonates by showing the struggles of womanhood through themes of motherhood, identity, miscarriage, and deeply human experiences.

Her life choices were just as bold as her art. Kahlo didn’t shy away from her bisexuality, affairs, and even her radical political views. Her life is a bold feminist statement showing that a person can live freely and challenges patriarchal expectations by choosing their own path.

Frida Kahlo Enduring Influence

An Icon of Resilience

But, Kahlo’s impact wasn’t only visible in art galleries. She has outlived her canvases as an enduring icon of individuality. Her portraits adorn T-shirts and tote bags while inspiring creators everywhere.”,”Kahlo’s legacy globally encourages women to embrace their identities and imperfections and celebrate even the harshest challenges life brings.

Frida Kahlo in Popular Culture

The interest in Frida Kahlo has increased inexplicably over the past two decades which is ‘monumental’ to say the least. Her native country considers her a national treasure and showcases her amazing works in premier galleries like Museo Dolores Olmedo. It is incredible to think how her art is now studied and appreciated globally by scholars and enthusiasts who seek to understand the myriad of social, political, and cultural dimensions within it.

How Frida Kahlo Story Inspires Us Today

Her native country considers her a national treasure and showcases her amazing works in premier galleries like Museo Dolores Olmedo. It is incredible to think how her art is now studied and appreciated globally by scholars and enthusiasts who seek to understand the myriad of social, political, and cultural dimensions within it. Kahlo’s art inspires us all by reminding us that beauty can stem from pain and surges of overwhelming individuality.

Regardless if you’re an artist, feminist or just someone tackling the day to day drudgery of life, her work offers solace to all. She motivates us to accept embracing our weaknesses, to view them as strengths, but most importantly, that we must live free of restrictions. From all around the globe and through different generations, her influence can be felt.

Through her art, Kahlo ascertains that despite the trauma, pain, and struggles we face in life, our unique stories have the power to change narratives. Though her canvas may be still, it carries her voice and that voice is one that will always be heard.

Kahlo captures our imagination in so many ways. For me, she means…

She is a figure that captures one’s imagination differently based on experiences and different works of Kahlo such as self portraits.

Narayana Murthy Autobiography

Narayana Murthy: The IT Industry Pioneer

Narayana Murthy

So friends, there is really such an intoxication that even the best of people get addicted to it, but Narayana Murthy, the person who does not leave his simplicity even after reaching the peak of success is called great in the world, and similarly, today we are going to tell you about this great personality, Narayan Murthy, who is also called the Father of the Indian IT Sector for his unmatched achievements.

This is the world’s best couple; seeing how it looks, this is also such a country. The love story of Narayan and Sudha Murthy, along with their love for each other, love for their work, and love for their country, has left them with the love that they have for each other. They say that relationships are natural and, after coming to earth, they are complete, and Sudha Murthy and Narayan Murthy’s sense of knowledge is also one day ahead or behind.

Narayana Murthy Networth

This couple’s amazing chemistry is a priceless gem for India. Companies like Infosys started with ₹10,000; today it has a value of more than ₹9,916. Such a company started with just ₹10, and today employees can earn from ₹2,000. This company started not only in India.

But it is India’s first test company to be released on the New York Stock Exchange, and it is possible because of Narayan Murthy’s subject and Sudha Murthy’s belief. Today we are going to share with you about their amazing partnership, which is no less than Kapil Sibal for the whole of India. If you get value from this video, then share it with your friends.

The interview hero of India Our story is to bring it to you.And Narayan Murthy is a billionaire and a successful man. But there was a time when Narayan Murthy had established a company called Saunf Chronic Sham before starting Infosys, but that company failed to run.

Narayana Murthy Career

Then to support his family, he had to work at Amazon Spider. Despite all this, after a few years, he left his job and started Infosys with his special friends.

In such a situation, imagine what his wife did when she woke up in the morning. She cursed him and said that she did not like him. She had faith in her husband and supported him.

In an event, one of Narayan Murthy’s friends asked, If we did not increase our population, then how did you start the Infosys ACC company? Then Surdasji said that this is a working display drama. Ajay had to do a nine-day job in Pet Information and Funding Infosys.

Narayana Murthy found Infosys

There, Mother, please improve your marriage. Before that, we used to keep account of every single penny. When we went to hotels, he used to give feedback. When Narayan Sir did not have money to spend, then Sudha ji used to do it and write notes in her notebook. Then the bureaucrats picked up the marriage.

People believe that only a man can be the breadwinner of the house. But this couple has shot for Android phones, and this one has a billion-dollar ID kept on the side. But when Infosys started in the job, there was license Raj in India.

I was not in business. I had to wait for a year to go to the office. One of them was a software company, but for the first 2 years, I was able to operate without any computer. The time was such that it took so much time to import a computer.

Narayana Murthy Struggle

For the first eight years, Infosys did not see a single penny of Wipro Fit. Because of this, some of the partners left the company, but they only visited, and during this time, Germany dropped a big front for the army, bigger than the money plant money orders for India’s IT sector potential.

Our engineers are the best engineers in the world; our price and get back to success in every state. Those who could not win the Royals got this ₹100 from this topic.

Just through the line, they should make them the owner of a small part of the company so that their loyalty remains intact and that too by working with all their heart and soul, giving him vision, and making them apart from this point.

Narayana Murthy - 18,000 emplyees

Infosystems was the first company to give this to 18,000 employers, and thousands of them got the medal of the middle class, and after completing the journey to become a billionaire, how lavish their lifestyle will be, let me tell you, even today Sudha Murthy takes very beautiful time economy class decisions because not running after money.

Running after exposure is a 1 billion dollar ID; our love story is about partnership. In cricket, when once the cement pipe is on the send, then the other batsman is at the non-striker end; both run, but Rani runs only for a minute in such a situation when the batsman at the non-striker end knows that the color is not for him.

If he stopped running away from the people he meets, he could have saved himself, but I believe that a successful marriage is like a partnership where both partners play their roles in a better way and activate Narayan Murthy.

Narayana Murthy Wife Sudha role

Narayana Murthy

Murthy Centro Sudha Murthy was excellence in managing money. Narayan Murthy Journal Sudha Murthy can talk about chicken fried chicken and teaching, and Narayan Murthy can lead to success by shifting to the pot that their differences did not make you weak; they complete each other.

And today we know Sudha as a best-selling author, and she used to write good writing in English only in two mediums and in Canada only. Then Narayan Murthy became her support, story fuel, and companionship throughout life. I don’t know how many questions her courage increases in them.

Narayana Murthy & Sudha Murthy Love Story

Both of them hit a century of accomplishments by giving each other space and fulfilling their responsibilities in this partnership from a positive point of view and an ideal partnership where there is coffee and trust of 100%.

Today we will find a couple in a picture love story, whereas the most successful love story in the world is in front of our eyes, which started in both the houses, but this love story healed the wounds and rose above poverty through its blog.

Teach crores of children to read and make this country of 1 million population at least one percent better because people fall in love, rise above their status, and it makes a difference to me to bring this lovely definition of love to you.

Narayana Murthy - IT Icon

Actually, N. R. Narayan Murthy is the same person who gave India its biggest IT company, Infosys, but despite being so successful in his career, the way he has maintained his simplicity makes him a successful businessman as well as an amazing person today, and it is his simplicity and humble behavior that in 2019, when Ratan Tata was given the Lifetime Achievement Award by his hands, today and out of respect, he bent down and touched Ratan Tata’s feet.

Now you yourself think that the person who has so much respect in his mind for his biggest state, how much more down to earth he himself would be, and in today’s video, we will tell you about this great person of India. We are going to tell you about the inspiring life story of the businessman from his struggle to his success.

Early Life

So, friends, Nagwar Ramarao Narayan Murthy, i.e., N. R. Narayan Murthy ji, was born on 20 August 1946 in a middle-class Brahmin family living in Siddha Lata in a town of Mysore.

Narayan Murthy ji’s father was a teacher by profession, due to which there was an atmosphere of education in the family from the beginning. His family had five siblings, in which Narayan Murthy ji was the fifth.

Now he completed his early education in his hometown, and then after that he took admission in the National Institute of Engineering, NRHM, Mysore, to do electrical engineering, and friends, in this way he completed his graduation from Entre College in the year 1967, and then after this he got selected in IIT Kanpur for further studies.

Now Narayan Murthy ji wanted to study in this university, but his father’s income was not so much that he could study in IIT Kanpur. He could not afford the expenses of this education because his family was quite big and he had to take equal care of all his children, so he had made it clear to his son Narayan Murthy that he would not be able to educate him at IIT Kanpur.

Education

In fact, Narayan Murthy was selected in this university even after 12th, but then his father could not get him admitted there due to his financial condition, and Narayan Murthy had to complete his graduation from AID out of compulsion.

But friends, this time Narayan Murthy had decided that even if he had to bear the expenses of his studies, this time he would definitely go to IIT Kanpur for studies, and then somehow he arranged for the money himself and took admission in this university.

However, after this, a teacher of the university, Dr. Prashna Murthy, helped him financially in completing his studies. Now, friends, Narayan Murthy had taken admission in IIT Kanpur, but here he was going to do a master’s in electrical engineering, whereas he had nothing to do with the field of IT.

So, friends, for the first 1 to 2 months, he attended only electrical engineering classes, but after that, suddenly, something happened that made him decide to change his field and go into IT.

15 minutes seminar

Actually what happened was that in those days seminars used to be held in IIT Kanpur on different subjects in which people from India and abroad used to come to that university to give lectures, and he attended one such seminar that was completely based on ID.

Narayan Murthy ji says that that 15-minute seminar was the biggest life-changing event for him because after attending that seminar, he came to know that in the coming time, how much difference is going to be made on things like computer software and IIT, and then from here he decided to change his subject and make his career in the field of IIT and friends.

In this way, in the year 1969, he got his master’s degree in computer science from IIT Kanpur, and then after that he started working as a system programmer at IIM Ahmedabad, and friends, during this time he worked on India’s first time-sharing computer system.

Work at IIM

Narayan Murthy ji says that working at IIM was one of the best decisions of his life because while working here he learned many such things that later on were very useful in his professional career.

He worked for IIM till 1971, and then after that he went abroad to work and see friends. During this time he also spent some time working in Paris, but in 1978 he left IIM and then spent the next 11 months traveling to 25 different countries of the world and seeing friends. During this journey he learned many things about the world.

He experienced different cultures, and during this protest, he decided that he would become a great entrepreneur, and thus, soon after returning from this journey, he started a small consulting company named Short Tricks, but despite working hard for one and a half years, his company failed, and Narayan Murthy’s dream of becoming an entrepreneur was also shattered.

Married Life

Now he was not one of those who give up so easily. By then, his wife, Sudha Murthy, had also come into his life. And there was pressure on him to settle down in life. As soon as possible because, without his settling down,.

Sudha’s father was not ready to get them married, and friends. Taking this into consideration, Narayan Murthy started working in a company named Patna Computer Systems. And in the year 1978, he got settled in both careers. And life with Sudha Murthy as my spouse.

Now, friends, if you see, till now, everything was going well in his life. But still, Narayan Murthy was not happy with that life. Remained, he uncertified because he didn’t want to specialize.

Started Infosys

In 1981, he borrowed Rs. 10000 from his wife, Sudha. Systematically, the front of his company’s first office was in a house room. So he started a new company with his six juniors, which he named Infosys. Sudha Murthy tells that before Infosys became successful, she had spent a lot of money on Narayan Murthy ji. At that time the condition of this company was such that it took them one year to get a telephone connection and three years to install a computer.

Actually, Narayan Murthy met Sudha for the first time in the days of her struggle. And at that time her financial condition was so bad. That Sudha ji herself had to bear the expenses of their meeting and going on dates. Actually, Sudha ji belonged to a rich family, and she achieved financial independence early through employment.

Now, for your luck, we would like to tell you that Sudha ji was the first female employee to work as an engineer at Tata Motors. Formerly known as Telco. If you aim for financial independence, do it like Sudha ji. Then you should join this company. You should definitely make settings and investments in your life.

Infosys as joint venture

But despite all this, Narayan Murthy ji and all his partners kept trying continuously to run this company. And then finally, after some time, they got funding from a US company.

In this way, Infosys started working in a joint venture with this company. But unfortunately, in 1989. Due to some reason, this joint venture broke down. And once again, it came to the same place from where it had started.

This was the time when everyone was advising Narayan Murthy ji to close the company. But despite all this, he never gave up and kept trying continuously to run the company.

Then finally, after a few years, those bad times started to end. And his hard work day and night started showing results. Because the company started getting more new contracts. And with this year in 1995, liberalization came. Then the Infosys company also grew very fast along with India.

Turn to be MNC

After this, the company started expanding in other countries outside India very quickly. And in the year 1999, it was the first Indian company listed on the American Stock Exchange. After this, Infosys never looked back. Soon India’s top companies began using it.

If we talk about the voice, then at this time the business of Infosys has spread not only in India. But all over the world, it is now a leading global IT company. In this way, Narayan Murthy ji taught us through his story that those who face situations bravely achieve success in life.

He showed us that instead of bowing down to challenges. One should face them head-on to achieve success. One thing about Narayan Murthy ji that is liked the most even today is his humble behavior.

Great Couple & their success

In fact, today, he never lets his success dominate him. And always lived his life with simplicity and only Not only Narayan ji. But also his wife, Sudha Murthyji, is also very famous for her simplicity. So surprisingly, in a past interview,.

Sudha Murthy hasn’t bought a new saree for herself in the last 21 years, as she mentioned. This is why we are both considered among our country’s most inspiring figures today.

Thank you very much.

It cost his father’s entire one-month salary. Just imagine—one flight ticket cost his father an entire year’s salary. Sundar Pichai’s father sacrificed his whole year’s earnings to buy the plane ticket. Today, Sundar Pichai can buy many planes with his one-year salary. Today Sundar Pichai has reached great heights.

Sundar Pichai lives in a luxury house in Palo Alto. Palo Alto is in the Silicon Valley. It is in the Silicon Valley. California is considered to be the most prosperous state in the USA. His personal net worth today is $100 million. “Opportunity doesn’t happen on its own. You create it,” says Sundar Pichai.

He was passionate about machines and technology right from the beginning. Three things changed his life: the telephone, the fridge, and the scooter. It took five years for his family to get a telephone installed. His father used to take him along whenever he went out.

When Sundar Pichai gained knowledge about technology, he realized one thing—neither machines nor technology directly saves time. Once, he was so fascinated with technology that he opened the landline at home out of curiosity. However, he couldn’t put it back together.

Senoir beat Sundar Pichai on Abe Saale

His father’s past abuse contrasted sharply with the day he recognized his son’s exceptional potential. Realizing technology’s time-saving ability, he decided to manufacture products in America. Before this decision, the son graduated with a B.Tech from IIT Kharagpur.

A top student and cricket captain, he thrived as an all-rounder during his initial years at IIT Kharagpur. A South Indian from Chennai, accustomed to Masala Dosa, he innocently adopted a phrase he overheard there.

He recounted saying, “Abe Saala, abe saala, excuse my language; it’s part of the story.” Believing it a casual term, he used it with a fourth-year student during his first year, saying, “Hey bastard, let me eat first. My class is about to start.”

Sundar Pichai recommended as Google CEO

He thought he would like it; now the fourth-year student caught him and beat him up. He said, “Hey, bastard, what is wrong?” After enduring repeated beatings, he realized his naive belief that the senior would find his actions amusing was mistaken. However, the senior became furious and beat him up.

Before joining Google (GG), Pichai briefly worked at a consulting firm. When he moved to Google, his skills and leadership caught Microsoft’s attention. Microsoft was observing him for a long time. Microsoft recommended him as our CEO. The talks would be in 2013.

Upon hearing that I was joining Microsoft as CEO, my boss suspected I was threatening to quit. Let’s do this. To be sure, the company decided to conduct an internal survey. They asked employees whether they should let Sundar Pichai go or retain him.

Sundar Pichai Role

Sundar Pichai

Out of 135,000 employees across 50 countries in 70 offices, 134,000 said that the company couldn’t function without Sundar Pichai. The company not only decided to retain him but also rewarded him with a $50 million bonus and promoted him to CEO.

An overwhelming 99.99% of the 144 board members voted in his favor. He also received a salary hike and company shares. Pichai humorously remarked, “Whenever I resigned, they would promote me. If I ever resign again, they might make me the CEO of Google!”

This story reflects that to become a CEO, one must first become an irreplaceable and invaluable asset to the company. Pichai’s journey of hard work and dedication made him one of the most admired business leaders in the world.

Sundar Pichai compare to other Indian CEO's

Satya Nadella is the CEO of Microsoft, and he is also an Indian. He is worth 23 million dollars. Indira Nooyi is 23 years old. Everybody knows that Indira Nooyi is the CEO of India. He is worth 1 million dollars and more. Shantan Narayan is the CEO of Adobe.

Satya Nadella is worth 31 million dollars. Satya Nadella is the CEO of Microsoft with 43 million dollars. Sundar Pichai is not 43. Add all of them together, and Sundar Pichai alone is even more than 281 million dollars.

Sundar Pichai’s exorbitant salary led Microsoft to believe they could have afforded multiple Satya Nadellas for the same cost. Microsoft left the company, and Satya Nadella became the CEO of Microsoft, and he became the CEO of Microsoft in 2015. And later in 2000, around 19, 19,Alphabet, his group company, was where Sari was formed.

Sundar Pichai fight with Anjali

His wife told him that his wife is very sweet, and he loves his wife a lot. Said that I will reach from the office and you reach from home. So Anjali reached home for dinner. He was coming from the office and lost his way on the way and could not reach India on time. It is not like 8 o’clock in the US, which means 8:00 o’clock; he reached there at 8 o’clock.

His wife reached; he also had to reach there at 8:00. By the time reached there, it was 10 o’clock. When reached there, his wife had left, and the food was over. Then said, brother, the food is over.” Finally he reached home with a sad face. When he reached home, his wife scolded him a lot.

Anjali scolded him a lot and got so angry that he had insulted her. She said, I had to go with someone else; I had to come with someone else; I had to eat alone.” She was very sad, and in anger she said, Get out of the house.” This happens in the US; the wife throws the husband out, then poor Sundar.

Worried?

Packing with a heavy heart. Pichai spent a sleepless night at the office; thoughts haunted him: “I’ve lost my way. How many others lost their sleep too?” How can we prevent people from losing their thoughts?.

He went and called his entire team the next day and said, The team can do something; we can help people by making a map, and the team was not ready earlier. A team of 50 people got formed, sat there for two days and nights to convince the team, and in 2005, for the first time in Google 3, after that, in the USA, they launched it in the UK in 2008.

Launched in India, it got ready subsequently to launch worldwide. What is the saying that if you don’t fail sometimes, you lack ambition? They say that no matter how many times you fail, you should every time learn from it.

Story behind Google Lens

Today there are 1 billion users; the world’s population is 7 billion. Out of that, 1 billion people are on googleapis.com. What happened once: He was sitting at home with his daughter; it was a Sunday afternoon in the winter season.

He was sitting outside in the garden basking in the sun, and his daughter came and said, Papa, which flower is this? He said, I don’t know; bring another flower, Papa, this flower.

He said, I don’t know which one it is, and the daughter laughed and said, You are IIT educated, Stanford educated, WTO, did an MBA from WTO, did post-graduation from Stanford, and are double post-graduate.

I don’t know if you give flowers.” The poor guy felt ashamed and said to Sundar, If I am so educated and I don’t know, then how would a common man know?” He called a team of 20 people and asked what should be done and made a team of 20 people and said, Let’s make a new product for Google so that if my daughter gives this flower

How Google Lens work ?

And I scan it with the lens, I will get to know which flower it is; its name will also come up, and where is the shop in Google 2? With the help of Google’s If you are roaming in the market and scan the market there, scan the surroundings of the shop, then it will tell you what food you will get here that is useful, and Google is such an amazing thing that you go shopping and while shopping you find a nice t-shirt and ask how much it costs; he says you scanned it for Rs. 1000.

If scanned, it will tell where this T-shirt is available for Rs. 4000. Where is it available for Rs. 3000? How much is it available online? How much is it available at? Excluding four shops, it will give you all the options; it will tell you everything about shopping there. In fact, in 2007 he was sitting and searching for a document on his hard disk, and while searching for the document, he listened; it is a great story.

While searching for the document, when it took him 15 minutes to find and retrieve the document, he got very irritated. Then he noticed that the search still had the same problem. Also, many searches are going on on Yahoo and web crawlers like AltaVista.

Search engine speed optimization

Yahoo, As Jeeves, MSN, so many search engines—in all of them, one had to wait for 45 seconds, 50 seconds, or one minute. That, sir, even if they called the team, it is irritating to wait for the search. Why not do something such that the person presses the button and brings his finger back on the enter button, and in that time the search will come in front?

So the team said, Friend, when 17 companies could not do it, how will we do it on your hard disk? If it is not done on disk, then how will it be done on G? The team was not ready; their team got irritated; their friend, who gives very unrealistic goals, Sundar Pichai, left the team and ran away from them.

But they made a fresh team, worked day and night, and after that today it is history. Today, search engine means 17 companies of Google 3 were finished, only Google 3 Life Insurance LIC, but today, search means Google 3 companies got finished. How did it end? Their rule was that after pressing the button and releasing it, before the finger comes back, the result of the search should appear first.

 

Experts advise against trying to beat the competitor. Create your own game, and when you invent your new game, then the competition is over. The competition is over, so as soon as you press the enter key, the game will end, but what happens before that?

Ranking Pages

We need to rank Google’s 2nd, 3rd, and 4th pages. And after that, we send the result to your browser today. If you search for Vivek Bindra, then what will you get? You get 24,100 results as soon as you search for Vivek Bindra in 5,858 seconds, i.e., in half a second.

I searched for big business, and just a while ago, before making the video, I saw 5 crore 98 lakh results come up as soon as I typed big business, and that too within half a second, so Google 2 was lagging. Google built 2, and how many data centers did it build even today?

WhatsApp also closes at 2 o’clock. Google 2 does not. What did they do? They built 21 data centers in the US and 22 data centers in the rest of the world, and only one oath that Google’s Sundar Pichai says, if you have anything, they demonstrate remarkable commitment.

Sundar Pichai says once someone told a joke that his brother, someone who came for an interview, said, This is my resume. Sundar Pichai said, I know more about you than your wife. I know more about your parents. I know your whole I have your resume before I write the full text of your heart.

How Algorithm works?

He knows. Yes, look, this is how algorithms work. Yes, when he goes to a Chinese shop, he says Nihao. Nihao means hello. Nihama Now Nihaa Ma means How are you?” He has to understand what he said. Chinese girl, this Chinese girl, now she is asking, poor girl, what do you want, vegetarian masala dosa?

There is a Tamilian accent; maybe I can’t say it, but she is vegetarian masala dosa, and this poor girl is saying to her, What, Nihama? Now, Nihama means How are you?” I could not answer this; irritation got the better of me, and I headed back to the hotel from there, and from there he called Silicon Valley and said, I need 25 leaders together.

“All the tech heads came quickly; he said, Let’s make coding googlegroups.com.” G translator is being used in the world; problems are the seed of innovation; problem-solving products; this is how G builds customer gives a signal; G makes a product. Sundar Pichai went to his village once to meet his father.

His father death

His father was about to die, and his grandmother, who had already meditated, saw that they did not color the plastic used for the crane; he had painted his maternal uncle’s photo, that is, his grandmother’s photo, with that crane.

His father said, What have you done? He said, I wanted to give life to my mother’s picture. I wanted to fill some color in it. This touched Sundar Pichai, and he said, If you want to color a black-and-white picture, then why do it like this? Understand the point: if you create it for yourself, it’s art.

What he painted, his father painted it, was art, but if you create it for the world, it is business. He made it for the whole world. What did he do? From there, you can edit Google’s photo filter.

Edit Mughal-E-Azam movie

You can add it, you can change it, you can color the black and white. Mughal-e-Azam was released again a few years ago; that black and white movie was released in color. All this happened after Google’s “How can we change the surroundings?” and How can you make collages?” and How can you make animations?”

How can you make short films? Every time we created a problem-solving product, when we saw our own problems in life, we solved the world’s problems, so what is a problem-solving product where you can find a demand solution? My YouTube story is that the world’s largest company was created by creating a problem-solving product.

So they found some such countries, among them San Marino and Tonga. Tonga country is not even visible on the map; it is such a small country that not even one or two people would go there in the whole year.

There were such countries from outside; now they had to do research about them. They wanted to go there, where no one goes. What is their language? What is their culture? What do they eat? How do you transport there? What are the important locations there?

 

Tonga country is not in the map ?

How are the people there? What is the weather like there? Is the assisting reach there? I am very upset right now; tell me it is taking a lot of time. He said, Should I make something so that I get all the readymade information on my call? I am having breakfast, and the information keeps coming.

I am taking a bath, and the information keeps coming in the bathroom. Then he will manage your appointment. What time is your appointment? With whom is the appointment? Where is it? He will remind you himself. You will become an assistant. Assistant means he will assist you. Brother, you had an appointment. Where are you going? You reach the appointment right now.

Invented Google Calendar

You have to turn off the lights. You have to turn on the lights. You have to close the door. You have to lock it. You have to open it. If you are sitting in the car, turn on the AC in the house. If you are sitting at home, turn on the AC in the car. And Google’s feature is such that it says to your old conversation that if I forget my wife’s birthday, then completely.

And today when he promised to meet me in person, he was on Google 3. He got a project from school, and that parrot started watching wrong content, and he started watching so many wrong things. I opened and reviewed his entire history; he left a trail of the entire project and went into the trail of wrong content at such a tender age.

If I did not take care of my child today, I am so worried that I feel I should give him more time. Sundar Pichai expressed his admiration. and said, How many children will this harm? Such people are posting it, no matter how much we control, but the content suitable for children is still very wrong.

They said that something should be done so that children do not have to sit and watch it again and again; they should not be able to see anything wrong. What should I do so? So he brought a YouTube4 kit, and in 2019, when he launched YouTube2, he built an app that had child-appropriate emoji.

Take a right action

Eating a burger and drinking Coke, he was sitting in a review meeting with Google’s Pichai; then he started saying in front of everyone, Oh, brother, there were two boys saying like this, the emoji is not right. Whatever the company has made in our company, you should feel proud.

“I scolded Sundar Bhai and sent them away, Sundar said. What are you saying? What were you saying? What’s the problem with the burger? They just talk nonsense. Where do they have any sense, these boys of today? Sundar Pichai said, Call both of them.” The manager got scared and called both of them.

Now those two juniors Sundar Pichai called him to go in front of Sundar Pichai; he came and said, What was the problem with the burger?” Sundar asked. No, you were fine. Ask what the problem was.” Fine sir, it’s really good. What burger did you make? I felt hungry after seeing it.

 

Sundar got irritated. Tell me the truth. What was the problem with the burger?” he said. Sir, the problem was that first you put the bun; after the bun, you put cheese; after the cheese, the patty; and then the lettuce again, he said. What’s the problem? “No sir, it’s not like this.

Take care of employees

There is a bun; after that, the potato patty is put on it, cheese is not put under the patty, then lettuce, and then close it. Sir, they make burgers like this. only, aren’t they?” Sundar Pichai is so sincere that he went and got the emojis corrected. He awarded those two boys, and when the manager scolded him, he scolded him back.

The boys got so happy. The burger was bad. I told you about my award win, Sir, and tell me, what did he say? Yes, tell me, sir, they designed the emoji for your beer; in beer, the beer is below and the foam is above, so if the foam is floating now, the beer, which is not in contact, then this is against the natural law of physics.

Vision of Google

So Sundar Pichai looked carefully and said, This is also correct; someone fills the glass of beer completely. And now that foam is coming out. We call this a customer signal. Google 2 times; thrice Google My. So what a powerful product we also have one course within Google’s 3 courses.

This was the vision of Google’s Pichai. Sundar Pichai’s vision is still so big; he is making flying drones, he is making hot air balloons for delivery, and where there is no internet, hot air balloons will hover over there and will increase the access of internet. pills to detect cancer.

They are making a way to detect cancer in the early stages. Even now, the batteries that you need to charge, they are thinking about how to make such a battery that the mobile, which needs to be charged in two days, does not need to be charged for 20 days.

Working on AI

They are making robots whose speed is so fast that they call them cheetah robots. They have given it an Indian name. Yes, they want to delay death. To delay death, they have seen which genes increase the average life span. If they increase those genes by injecting them, then healthy habits will prolong a person’s life.

They are working on advanced artificial intelligence. Sundar Pichai says that India, for a long time—not long but very, very long—has been an exporter of tech talent. All our technology experts from all over the country used to go to the US, but today India is making a revolution, and Sundar Pichai says that now India is undergoing its own revolution.

Sundar Pichai spent his life making technology easy and spent his life making big business entrepreneurship easy. Today, a problem-solving product distinguishes a leader and a follower. On the 20th, I am bringing a powerful event, Business Yoga with Bhagavad Gita, for you. Most of the people of the world are going to attend the Bhagavad Gita or any spiritual business-based event.

Till now, we have done as many webinars as we have done public webinars. We have made a world record every time for big business. Till now, we have made six world records and are going to make the seventh world record. On the 20th, I will come and do this event, Business Yoga with Bhagavad Gita, in the meantime. Thank you very much, with love from the bottom of my heart, to all of you.

Messi Autobiography

Lionel Messi: The GOAT of Football?

Lionel Messi

In today’s time, if we talk about football. And there is no mention of Messi, Ronaldo, and Neymar. Then it is not possible, and as far as I know, if any person has even a little interest in football. Then he must know these players; however. Today in this video I am going to talk about Lionel Messi among these great players.

Lionel Messi - Foot ball Player

Friends, you can guess the greatness of Messi in the game of football. And his fan following from the fact that in Argentina. A rule had to be made because of him that parents there could not name their children Messi.

Lionel Messi Fear?

Because the experts there were afraid that in the coming few years. The number of children named Messi would increase so much that there would be a huge identity crisis of children in the country. And then in 1995, he started playing for Newell’s Old Boys, a team from his city, Rosario.

Lionel Messi - Best for all time

At the young age of 9, Messi started playing football so well on the basis of his dedication and practice. That if the football came to him, no one could snatch it from him for 15-15 minutes. And the people watching would start tossing coins out of happiness. Everything was going very well in his life. So he was becoming a good player on the basis of his hard work. His family members also wanted him to have a career in football.

Lionel Messi Early Life

He was able to see clearly. But suddenly at the age of 11, he got a terrible disease called hormone deficiency. Friends, Let me tell you that this disease cause, there is a great lack of hormones inside the body.

And if it is not treated soon, the growth of the body stops. The treatment of this disease was very expensive. So along with this, Messi had to inject his thighs every night for its treatment, which was very painful.

Lionel Messi Harmonal Deficiency

He had to inject the first seven days in one leg. then the next seven days in the other leg. Friends, you can imagine yourself how difficult it would be for an 11-year-old child to do this. Messi’s father spent everything he had for a few years to get him treated. But After that, the financial condition of his house became very bad.

Lionel Messi Dedication

Messi’s treatment cost about $1,000 every month. And his father, being a simple laborer, was no longer able to handle the expenses of his treatment. But Messi never left football even in such a difficult time.

So he kept practicing with all his heart and soul. Here, people say that if you do something with a true heart. Then you will be able to do it. If you want, the whole universe joins in bringing him to you, and something similar happened with Messi.

Lionel Messi Amazing Foot Ball Player

Messi’s game impressive. One of his fans told Barcelona Youth Academy’s sports director Cos Dick about Messi’s amazing game. After which he watched Messi’s match and became crazy about this little kid’s game.

Then he made an agreement with Messi.And his family that Messi’s team will bear the entire expenses of his illness. But he will have to come to Spain and play for Barcelona.

Lionel Messi Played for Barcelona

Messi and his family happily accepted this agreement. Then at the age of 14, Messi went to Spain with his family. Here he started playing in the youth teams of Barcelona Youth Academy La Masia. And there also he impressed everyone with his magical game.

Lionel Messi lost Copa America Cup 2016

This year he scored 91 goals and broke the record of Germany’s great footballer Ged Müller. Apart from this, he has many records which are difficult for any player to break. It will be a big thing. After all, Messi was deeply hurt by his team’s defeat in the Copa America Cup 2016 final. But he was very upset with his defeat.

Lionel Messi vs Ronaldo

Lionel Messi

Ronaldo vs. Messi: Who is the best? is a topic. Due to which there is always a debate among football fans. And that is why in today’s we will compare every single thing of these two.

So we do not talk about the best opportunity written, with whom Ronaldo plays, with whom Messi plays. Where both of them have come from, how many difficulties they have faced. What Ronaldo’s story is, or what Messi’s story is, etc.

Who is Best ?

I will make blog on the journey of both Ronaldo and Messi. Which have exited Lakhs of fans in this world. If you want much in the blog then leave a comment below.

But yes, before that, read this blog completely. Because maybe you will get the answer to Ronaldo vs. Messi: who is the best? .So let’s see some such statistics, which will help you in deciding this.

1.Ronaldo has more Followers

Ronaldo has 311 million followers on Instagram. And this guy charges 12 crore rupees for a brand post. While Messi has 227 million followers on Instagram. Where that is, Ronaldo charges eight and a half crore rupees for brand posts.

2.Ronaldo scored more Goals

If we talk about club goals, then Ronaldo has scored more goals.So Ronaldo has scored 674 and Messi has scored 672 goals. Which means Messi has scored two goals less than Ronaldo. But the truth behind this is that Messi is less than Ronaldo.

If we talk about club goals, then here Messi is considered to be the best. In difficulties, he is a great player in scoring difficult goals. Whether he does it himself or someone else does it.

3.Messi winner

In this straight, Messi is the clear winner, who has made 226 attempts. So he has scored 139 goals. And the match is in the Under-20 World Cup in 2005. There he has won the gold medal in the Argentina team in 2008. At the international level, Ronaldo has scored three goals. Here I am far behind in this match with St. Paul International Boss.

Camparison is fare ?

There are many times when he has won titles. Again he has won these titles in multiple clubs. Because he has played with three clubs. So He shows a unique ability to win by joining different teams and proving himself. 

The interesting thing here is that we try to compare these two laces by bringing them to one level. However, the size of their legs is completely different. This makes the comparison unfair.

Size of the Feet

The signature of Ronaldo, who is 3.2 feet tall, is just vers and Ronaldo is vers. So he is known for his powerful long strength and leadership among friends paintings.

Not only this, due to Ronaldo’s dedication, Ronaldo also stays on his bike. On the other hand, The doctor shortens his left leg by 7 inches in 5 minutes. Messi depends on his smartness and his ability to make gameplay instead of his style.

He crosses the entire line of difference with his dribbling skills. So he creates such a pass that nobody would have thought of. Messi and Ronaldo control the game.

Awards

Both Ronaldo and Messi are highly competitive when it comes to youth awards. Ronaldo boasts five gallantry awards, while Messi leads in best performance player awards.

Regarding specific accolades, Ronaldo holds two compared to Messi’s one. Ronaldo also has four 4G Open Golf titles, whereas Messi has six. Messi has been named player of the year six times, surpassing Ronaldo’s four.

Networth

Shifting focus to earnings, Messi tops the list of highest-paid actors, earning $127 million from his club. Ronaldo follows at number two, receiving a similar multi-million dollar salary, further supplemented by his successful business ventures.

In 2021, Lionel Messi’s net worth was estimated at $500 billion, leading his business ventures. Both he and Cristiano Ronaldo have significant business empires. Ronaldo owns two luxury hotels in Portugal and his CR7 fashion brand. Messi, under his name, operates 31 luxury hotels and restaurant companies.

Brands

Ronaldo endorses brands like Nike, Altis, Diesel, Electronic Arts, Herbalife, and IMTV, as well as Adidas and potentially other brands. Both Messi and Ronaldo have massive fanbases and are football superstars, remarkable achievements considering their humble beginnings at BDO. Their hard work and perseverance have led to their considerable success.

Conclusion

Achieving success invariably demands both significant dedication and consistent, sustained effort. Concerning the content of this particular blog, the information presented currently appears to be somewhat incomplete, lacking crucial details.

More importantly, we need clarification on specific points to establish a solid foundation for accurate comparisons.

Future content should explore potential avenues, investigate similar figures with comparable backgrounds or achievements. And delve into the nuances of their journeys and contributions. This comprehensive approach will provide viewers with a richer and more informative experience.

Simon Boliver

Simon Bolivar Early Life

Simon Bolivar was born in 1783 in a country where this disease was very common. And the loss of cows was very great. Simon Forsway’s family in Venezuela was very wealthy. But originally, he was from Spain. At the age of nine, both of Simon’s grandfather and father died. Many efforts Simon’s mother put into his education. But educating Simon was not an easy task.

Simon Bolivar Education

Ultimately, the education got completed only after the arrival of Simon Yodgyes. Both of them were very talented. For the next six years, until Simon Bolivar was 14, the Youngers taught him the benefits of the teachings of the great philosophers and physicians of Europe.

Among them was Rousseau, a philosopher—a believer in God and possibility. Here Rousseau believed that if diseases lie in the womb of the child. At that time, they ought to train the child to cure itself. During harsh conditions, we must teach the youngsters the skills to survive. Such as those found in Iceland, or the raging seas of the Gulf.

Mahi Fat Yodyegz explained to Sobchak. Along with schooling, Yodyegz taught Sobchak how to fight and how to survive in the city and the streets. In a difficult situation, Yodyegz taught Sobchak how to survive.

Simon Bolivar learned Philosophy

In 1797, Yordeguez had to leave Venezuela. Why? Simon Bolivar had joined a revolutionary movement that ended in disaster. At that time, there were many diseases in Venezuela. Where Spain wanted to destroy in its country. But after some time, both the brothers recovered, and they visited the capital of Venezuela. This brother was the second son of forswear.

The king was in Paris, France, when Napoleon Bonaparte was the king and became emperor.

Battle with Spanish

When the troops reached Numungranada, there were only a few hundred soldiers in the troops. But his plan to put the Spanish troops under control was successful. By the time the Spanish forces got wind of the troops’ arrival, it was too late. The troops had won the battle.

Three days later, the troops reached Numungranada. In 1821, Simon Forsvere got appointed President of the Royal Commission of Corbima.

Caiafofo battle

The new royal commission had to encircle the countries of New Granada, Venezuela, Tamuto, and Italy. There was only one goal—Venezuela and Italy still had together to defeat.

As the President of Venezuela, Forsvere appointed Juan Santamaría. Here Forsyth did the same in New Granada. After that, he established Italy. Forsyth got engaged to Beneira Sain in Italy.

In 1824, Forsyth established a trading post at the Inner Mongolian Peninsula with the help of a group of his men. A few months later, Forsyth also established a trading post at the Inner Mongolian Peninsula. This new country took its name from Forsythia.

Simon Bolivar become Peru President

Simon Bolivar became president of the Force of Peru, Forivima, and the Royal Assembly of Corfu (which included Granada, Venezuela, and Ituido). So he wanted to form a union of Hispanic-American nations.

In 1826 a conference held in Peru at which representatives from the four countries as well as Central America and France attended. Finally, this conference did not come to fruition. But it was certainly the beginning of international cooperation.

Simon Bolivar empire collapse

But his wife, Bhanuera, stopped him from doing so. The voices coming from outside were, “Down with the dictator! Down with the soldier!” Suddenly Bhaneura opened the window above him and looked out. Then he signaled the soldier. As soon as the soldier jumped out of the window. There door of his cabin broke, and the killers entered through it.

Simon Bolivar Unbelievable death

But then Bhaneura raised his hand and ran towards the killers. Bhaneura’s attack frightened the killers. Bhaneura explained to them that the soldier was not there in the cabin. He had disappeared somewhere. Eventually, Forcery realized that his life was in danger in the very countries he had conquered.

So, in 1830, Simon Forcery left the South African Expeditionary Force and decided to go to Mayo. While he was about to go to Mayo, he got the news that the situation in Mayo had worsened. Forcery then remembered his fate. After that, he lived with one of his admirers, Spencenstein. On 17 December 1830, Simon Forcery died of T.F.
