As a retired individual in a western nation I enjoy learning more about things I don't know about but when it comes to Africa which news and information sources do you trust? There is so much mis information out there.
An eye opening conversation about European and American attitudes towards Africans and how those look from the African point of view. It sure is funny how we don't let thousands of Ukrainians drown in the Mediterranean or illegally deport them to strange countries but apparently it's okay to treat Africans that way.
I think the world would look very different if the Africans who be came slaves in the American continents had been left in Africa along with its other resources. The development of the American colonies in North, Central, and South America would have been completely different, as would have Africa. Another thing about Africa, i has a large population that also has the youngest demographics in the world. China and India have older populations. The Europeans and their descendants are almost may not be a real factor in the years to come
I'm not sure what this means John. What would be different in your view? I think the lives of White Americans would have been markedly better but you seem to have some ideas of a shift in global power?
@@johnlund2036 I don't see much evidence for that at all. Animosities in the states would be different without the Black minority, but Africans would still exist in the same conditions, likely with less development.
@@danielandrus2637 That is probably true, Europeans did not get along very well in Europe, some of that carried over to America. Blacks were a common group most people could dislike. Africans had a lot of tribal animosity, they sold each other into slavery, the Arabs bought a lot of them. The difference would be that they could not blame America for their problems. I was probably wrong to assume that things would really have been better, they would just have been different.
@@johnlund2036 I agree totally with you. What really bothers me with the framing in this interview is the assumption that resources could somehow be legitimately extracted. European colonialism quite frankly required way more investment than simply purchasing resources. The global south is arguing for their sovereignty but continued development efforts by White people. The thing is, they are a sink hole. Our educated professor gives no ideas of how to remedy the situation outside a seat at the table. I find it to be an elitist form of rent seeking and very frustrating.
Great Job Real News Network!!!! Thank you for having Nii Abuetteh on today. African history is important, as well as American history and world histories with truth to powers of greed. "They have been taking African resources for centuries." Thank you Mr. Nii Abuetteh no truer words told. South America, Central America, the Carribean Islands, Phillipines, Asia, the Middle East, how many military bases does the United States need? Climate change is real. Coorperations of greed. Again, thank you both for intelligence with wisdom to inform our world with truths
The list of assassinations of African liberation and socialist leaders is quite stunning. Not just Sankara, Lumumba and the other really well-known ones, but so so so many others. Clearly the imperialists know they are screwed the moment they fail to keep this on lockdown.
A united Africa with free trade between states would be great. Certainly not anyone's nightmare. A prosperous Africa is a source of stability. A socialist Africa would be Africa's worst nightmare. Free markets, low taxes and good infrastructure and education will build a modern society quickly, within two to three generations. There are many examples, Singapore is only one of many.
@@DEA90799The west used protectionism/ tariffs to protect their domestic markets in order to develop but used imf structural adjustment policies to devastate African economies so no free trade is not what Africa needs until each country can develop its domestic production. Your view has already been proven wrong by history. To develop they need to look only to former policies of the west minus the exploitation of others plus resource socialization.
I believe Africa is the future as it was so vitality important in our past. They held the truth of life on earth. This knowledge had to be quashed so government AND religion could gain control of the masses. Research ancient Khemeitc science. Coming from the land of Khem Africa. You'll be shocked when you realize the truth.
Then we should be importing motor vehicles & computers from Africa. Please knock it off with the wakanda tech fantasies that was just a movie before the white man came to sub Saharan Africa there was no written language no large scale agriculture they hadn’t even invented the wheel yet most of the rest of mankind invented these things thousands years earlier.

For example, without cobalt from places like the Congo, computers, smart phones, EVs, and other technologies would be exceptionally rare and super expensive to the point where I would not ever be able to afford any of them.
When I was in grade school and when they told me my people were always slaves I shut them down. Quit their school system taught myself. The only reason I when back to that place was to get that piece of paper stating that I have no critcal thinking but a good memory. I scored 25% higher then most. Teaching myself.

You know how they are, they hide sh1t.
They would prefer Africa remains undeveloped so as to ensure Africans intend to come to Europe instead, demographically replacing the European peoples, while doing what they can to explode the population of the African peoples with constant food aid. Kalergi’s book explains everything.
This is astounding. The guest and host both are describing these rentier states as if their condition is separate of race but not racism. The advocacy of a bottom up globalism is on its face ridiculous and guarantees the status quo. These countries have failed but must begin to develop their own national infrastructures.
Demographics is destiny. Africa will be 2.5 billion by mid century. If you think that amount of youth won't make any dent in this world then your living in a bubble. Europe will be an extension of Africa after 2080.
Europe's wars are called world wars. Pythagoras invented c^2=a^2+b^2 even though there were pyramids in the Americas and Africa that predates Greece. It's pathetic.
It is useful to recognize each part of the world's historical inputs into climate change only insofar as it helps to give clarity around the mechanism(s) of climate change. What each part of the global system is doing right now needs to be addressed. Presently, China needs to make some drastic changes. Today, China does not account for only 3% of problematic practices that affect our climate. This does not excuse the rest of the world from doing our part. We need to avoid the trap of an analysis that does not address the present dangers.
And don't forget corruption and instability. Africa is its own worst enemy and blaming the West for all their ills is disingenuous. While I get their anger at the Europeans colonists and the horrible things they did the Africans themselves have done the same to each other. Time to move on and progress but I just don't see it happening in my lifetime.
Resources don’t make a society rich with rare exceptions like Saudi Arabia with a tiny population & vast oil reserves. Intelligence & innovations make a civilization rich . Venezuela with the largest oil reserves in the world is destitute & starving . Why is America rich? It is rich because of inventions innovations & intelligence which Africa has none of. Name one invention or innovation that ever came out of Africa.
i think we need to focus on how the far east has progressed so fast in short time .once we talk about the world that is non white and has progressed fast and investgate and bring the subject in our debates we will find the answer on how to end that bondage to the european back door slavery
