  Zulu Kingdom - Shaka Zulu's...

  Shaka Zulu was born in 1787 to Senzangakhona, a minor chief of the Zulu clan, and Nandi, a woman of the Langeni people. His birth was unconventional and shrouded in controversy. As a child born out of wedlock, Shaka and his mother faced rejection and humiliation from Senzangakhona’s family, leading to their exile from the Zulu kingdom. They found refuge among the Langeni and later with the Mthethwa, a powerful kingdom under the leadership of Chief Dingiswayo. These early experiences of hardship, resilience, and survival shaped Shaka’s character, instilling in him a determination to rise above adversity. 
  Growing up, Shaka displayed remarkable physical strength, intelligence, and leadership abilities. Among the Mthethwa, he trained as a warrior under Dingiswayo’s command, where he was exposed to innovative military tactics that later influenced his own strategies. He quickly gained recognition for his bravery and strategic mind, earning a place of prominence within the army. It was during this period that he began developing ideas to revolutionize warfare, questioning the effectiveness of traditional long-range throwing spears and loose battle formations. 
  The political landscape of the time was volatile. Various Nguni-speaking clans, including the Zulu, were engaged in constant skirmishes for power and resources. The Mthethwa, under Dingiswayo, sought to unify smaller groups to strengthen their influence against rival factions like the Ndwandwe, led by Zwide. Shaka’s abilities as a warrior and leader caught Dingiswayo’s attention, and he became a favored protégé. This mentorship provided Shaka with the opportunity to refine his tactical skills and forge alliances that would later aid his own rise to power.

  “If I abstain from fun and such, / I'll probably amount to much, / But I shall stay the way I am, / Because I do not give a damn.” 
    
  American poet Dorothy Parker lived a life of heartache and hardship, but her writing became her weapon to fight back. She refused to temper her strong opinions, even at the cost of her editorial position at Vanity Fair. Parker continued to write—unfiltered and unapologetic—and found solidarity in community with other writers. Enough Rope was Parker’s first volume of poetry, featuring poems originally published in Life, Vanity Fair, and The New Yorker. Parker’s poetry has galvanized generations of strong-willed women, and the fire in her voice burns strong even a century after the first publication.
