Truth, they say, is stranger than fiction but then the truth must be told. Have you ever wondered why the western world is rich and Africa (particularlly black Africa) remains poor. Well, the reason is that the wealth of the Western World (Europe and America) was built by exploiting Africa's human and material resources.
In Fact, Britian's debt to Africans in the continent and diaspora can be estimated to be in the trillions of pounds. It all started with slavery where African were forcefully taken away from Africa and forced to work in farms where sugar, coffeee, cotton and tobacco were planted, harvested and sold. The money made from these industries was used to develop english bankind, insurance, wool and cotton manufacture and the cities of Bristol, Liverpool and Glasgow.
In fact the sweat of the Africans indirectly contributed to the Industrial revolution in Britain in particular and Europe in general. The guinea coin paid homage in its name to the west African origins of one flood of gold. By this standard, the British pound since 1880 should have been rechristened the rand, for Britain's prosperity and its currency stability depended on South Africa's mines. I would wager that a large share of that gold in the IMF's vaults which was supposed to pay for Africa's debt relief had originally been stolen from that continent.
In fact, after 1960, Britain and France attempted to corrupt the whole project of political sovereingnty. The remarkable thing is that Idi Amin (The brutal and corrupt African dictator) came to power in Uganda through British covert action and Nigeria's military generals were supported and manipulated from the 1960's onwards in support of Britains oil interests.
So, it can be seen from the above, that European interests in Africa have allways been less than secure. It is time we Africans looked inwards for the solution to our problems. We need to develop our own intellectuals who will solve our problems for us. We have enough material resources to build our economy. We only need to beleive in ourselves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
EMANCIPATE YOURSELF!!!!!!
Black people globally must realize that since we do not control any of the famed popular media outlets be it in Africa or elsewhere, we must earnestly try to stay away for these media outlets, especially their television stations. In Africa, you have what looks like African owned media outlets but certainly with European contents, with White supremacists contents. Just like you have BET in Uncle Sam, this is a media outlet supposed to be controlled and of course managed by Black people but that is not happening because BET is the tool of White people basically to keep Blacks oppressed and exploited!!!
So we say, cut off the CNN, the BBC, the BET, the African owned but White supremacists controlled media outlets everywhere. Cut them all off and take to a book. It is a waste of time spending a chunk of your time watching the oppressors planned actions against you. You are being programmed negatively when you watch these stations; your belief system is being poisoned as a result. And certainly you have to deal with unrealistic expectations watching the oppressors T.V stations. Emancipate yourself from the blue-eyed devil White folks incarceration!!!
