HipCo sees the disenfranchised speaking truth to one another – in their own language, no less. The "co" in HipCo is short for "Kolokwa," which is the dialect that the Liberian underclass has been improvising since the early 19th century, blending the English brought by 19,000 ex-slaves with words from about 15 native tongues to attain a soft-sounding patois. Kolokwa is 99 percent an oral language – as yet, there is not a single full book in the dialect – and it is all but incomprehensible to the American ear. In Liberia, the cultural elite have long shunned it as lowbrow. Which means that when HipCo artists inject a few choice snatches of Kolokwa into otherwise English lyrics, their words have political zing.
You’ve probably been under the impression most of your life that birds are monogamous. And while that’s mostly true, even our feathered friends sometimes find that life presents them with unexpected forks in the road — or, in this case, multiple nests in the trees.
Here’s my question….next year Garoppolo is healthy, McKinnon is healthy, they get their pass rusher maybe a corner and then they go 8-8.

Music plays. Switches and buttons and, in one set piece, hugging tree trunks let visitors manipulate light colors themselves. Strategically placed fire pits serve up perhaps the most hypnotic light of all.

Three things, Walsh had on his roster the best QB in the history of the game and we have a serviceable and might be good third string QB in Mullins, secondly our two starting receivers have been injured and our rookie receivers are showing some promise but not quite there yet. Lastly, Grant does not like KS, so I take his article with a grain of salt. Thankfully there are many others on here that knows football way more than me and certainty Grant that can see that KS should not be fired after season two and we should not sign Kaep who can’t read defenses and not a student of the game,
The answer to that depends on whether you view letting the legal system run its course as giving Foster a second chance or as something that reduced the amount of leniency available to him. However, both answers still do not justify your slanderous statement, regardless of what one you choose.

Forte moved back to Liberia in 2017, when he felt the nation had attained enough tranquility, postwar, to sprout an indigenous literature. ("You can’t write when the bullets are still flying," he explains.) He is still so newly arrived that Liberian food, often spicy, upsets his stomach. Still, his Kolokwa dreams are vast. He believes that, in standardised Kolokwa, Liberians can find a "national identity, something to rally around," and he envisions a day when Liberians of all classes can turn to a standardised Kolokwa for stories, both true and fictional, about their nation’s most pressing issues. "We can have podcasts in Kolokwa," he envisions, "and the words will flash across the screens of people’s smartphones. We can do subtitles on TV programs."
