Other philosophical traditions, such as African philosophy, are rarely considered par foreign academia. Since emphasis is mainly placed on Western philosophy as a reference point, the study, preservation and dissemination of valuable, but lesser known, non-Western philosophical works face many obstacles. Key African philosophers include the Fulani Usman Dan Fodio, founder of the Sokoto Caliphate of Northern Nigeria and Umar Tall of Senegal; both were prolific Islamic scholars. In the post-colonial period, different images of what could be argued as "African" Philosophy from the level of epistemology have risen. These could include the thoughts and enquiries of such individuals as Cheik Anta Diop, Francis Ohanyido, C.L. Momoh, and Chinweizu.
The philosophy of the modern and contemporary African world, including the diaspora, is often known as Africana Philosophy. Key philosophers include Frantz Fanon, Kwesi Wiredu, Paget Henry, Lewis Gordon, Mabogo Percy plus and many others.

THE LIFE CYCLE
I think the life cycle is all backwards.
toi should start out dead and get it out of the way.
Then, toi wake up in an old age accueil feeling better every day.
toi get kicked out for being too healthy; go collect your pension, then when toi start work, toi get a or watch on your first day.
toi work 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement.
toi drink alcohol, toi party, you're generally promiscuous and toi get ready for High School.
toi go to primary school, toi become a kid , toi play, toi have no responsibilities, toi become a baby, and then...
toi spend your last 9 months floating peacefully in luxury, in spa-like conditions; central heating, room service on tap, larger quarters every day, and then, toi finish off as an orgasm.
I rest my case.
