Africa will Rise

in #africa6 years ago

I believe Africa's story will change. It goes without saying that the majority of the world views Africa as a cesspool of corruption, disease, and unnecessary fatalities. It's rich history has been marred by the decisions of a minority who's actions unfortunately have tainted the narrative for the common African.

Globalisation has served as a solution, with its encouragement of technology adoption and changes in cultural perceptions which may ultimately lead to changes in dynamics of the political space.

If technology i.e multimedia can be used to influence the culture of a nation or political region in Africa, the results can be very very alarming for the political elite. Many may find that this is one of the reasons that education is stifled purposely in many African regions. An individual does not know what they do not know. If they do not have knowledge, they are less equipped to fight the invisible forces that press them.

Politics is a dangerous game but the power of love through multimedia, driven by technological streams may liberate generations with due time.

Remember, people that are more aware and educated on cultural geography and international politics and culture understand that the West diminishes and demonizes Africans by ignoring the numerous nations (54) and ethnic groups in Africa and often, (especially in the past) describes problems in one or a couple nations as a continental problem, mostly because of systemic racism. Progressive people like myself should look at this more often, and do more news stories on different countries in Africa, like Cape Town's (South Africa) Day Zero is getting pushed back.
