I agree with you, my responses are coming out defensive atm, but this great news and I wish there was more like it being reported on.

I get what you’re saying. But you’re missing my point, the discourse around Africa is almost completely controlled by the west. It’s the underreporting on the scientific advancements, how west Africans dominate in studies in any environment, vast improvements in Rwandan infrastructure the massive strides to create an Eastern African superpower backed by actual gold.

We don’t even need to look as far as the disparity between the wests reporting on itself. Even Asia and South America which have a plethora of similar and unique but scalable problems that aren’t as reported as Africa’s.

The continent is moving forward in spite of the rest of the world and notably the west (F*** France especially) efforts to disparage its advancements and report on it as a cesspit of its own doing.

The biggest detriment to Africas development is interference. To be left alone in all regards it would not be the continent it is today. RIP Nkrumah, Sankara, Lumumba, Olumpyio, etc etc I could go all day.

Lmao Wakaliwood is hilarious, but should not be taken literally

Lmao this does nothing but prove my point. You are not African or based in Africa to know this? You probably still believe Kony was active in 2012. Talk to some Ugandans man

Exactly what I’m saying, but people have eaten the bulletin board and are spewing every media narrative

The US is literally being ran into a climate crisis by corporations and your elections are again paid for? Corruption is not an African issue, it’s just reported as such.

I will say however infrastructure is an issue in many countries outside of major cities and they still function. Even countries like Portugal and Italy have major flaws outside of their major cities but again, it’s how the media tells it.

1. Who reported those headlines but won’t report on any of their social or technological successes?

2. As stated by another commenter, are you not aware of what the US was doing to black people, and women during its major technological advancements? Cmon

This is because the west is remarkably consistent in painting the worst image of Africa
