Teodrose Fikre

Founder at Ghion Journal
Teodrose Fikre is a published author and a prolific writer whose speech idea was incorporated into Barack Obama's south Carolina victory speech in 2008. Once thoroughly entangled in politics and a partisan loyalist, a mugging by way of reality shed political blinders from Teodore's eyes and led him on a journey to fight for universal justice.

Teodrose was born in Ethiopia the same year Emperor Haile Selassie was deposed by the communist Derg junta. The great grandson five generations removed of Atse (emperor) Tewodros Kassa II, the greatest king of Ethiopia, Teodrose is clearly influenced by the history and his connection to Ethiopia. Through his experiences growing up as first generation refugee in America, Teodrose writes poignantly about the universal experiences of joys, pains and a hope for a better tomorrow that binds all of humanity.

Teodrose has written extensively about the intersection of politics, economic policies, identity, and history. He is the author of "Serendipity's Trace" and newly released "Soul to Soil", two works that inspect the ways we are dissected as a people and shows how we can overcome injustice through the inclusive vision of togetherness.

I know there are some who read what I write and jump to the conclusion that I must be anti-business. To the contrary, I am enthralled with entrepreneurship and people who take the risk in life to start their own business. What I am against is the cancer that capitalism has become as cronyism and

This past weekend, the page for Ghion Journal was shuttered by Facebook. Citing a nebulous reference to “community standards”, the world’s largest forum—and thus the preeminent conduit for free speech—shut down a page for a website dedicated to overcoming our differences and seeking universal justice (read more at A Speech Deferred). This is an attack

When a people feel unjustly targeted for repression and subjugation, they have a God given right to seek relief from the yoke of oppression. We are a people born free and we have a right to live our lives free of systematic and state-sponsored maltreatment. I thus rise in the defense of freedom and liberty

This is the newest Ghion Cast where I discuss the political discourse going on in America and throughout the world. We are in a paradigm where co-victims and fellow sufferers are being set upon each other. We are being led to the gutter by a political system and the punditry that is intentionally injecting animosity
