Alright so I been working my way up to a list on Africa's socio-political issues, the next one I'm going to start soon is African Expectations from Mafoya Dossoumon.
I've mostly read about the Congo & Namibia, I know a little about Rawanda, Nigeria, Burkina Faso, Uganda (very VERY little about Uganda... I've just heard some funny Amin soundbites while looking up information) & Cape Verde. Really trying to find out more about the rest of the countries.
African Expectations is a collection of essays about how political, economic, and socio-cultural issues Africa's development and how the most important factor for this failure is the lack of good leadership. The book offers tentative solutions to some of the most pressing issues of our times based on the author's worldview and life experiences.
We should create some kind of curriculum.
I see too many ahistorical takes from my community and it needs to stop tbh
Brother Kanye making power moves! (Look at the book in the first post)

The slave trade definitely impacted those of the continent as well, just not in the same way.
Anybody following the Mali protests??
What's going on?
And anything you thinking of initially for that curriculum you mentioned?
wow i didn't know this thread existed until now.
there's some enhanced ethnic tension in Ethiopia rn ever since a popular oromo singer was assassinated. I don't know much about it outside what my parents told me and their experiences in Ethiopia but i was interested in learning more about the ethnic differences in east Africa and Africa in general.
anyone know where to look?
