  • Dr. Peterson's extensive catalog is available now on DailyWire+: utm.io/ueSXh
    Dr. Jordan B Peterson and Magatte Wade discuss how economic freedom dictates the success potential of countries, and how Africa’s fixation on colonialism being the cause of their modern day struggles, rather than bureaucratic red tape, is what’s locking the continent into abject poverty.
    Magatte Wade is an entrepreneur for change, having focused her efforts first on raising awareness and capital with her lip balm company, Skin is Skin. She would then become a TED Global Africa Fellow, giving lectures with the aim of changing the course of Africa’s history, and giving the rich continent a brighter future based on the free market.

      Bad news for you, my friend. Countries with natural resources are usually doing worse. Because selling those resources gives government enough money so they have no incentive to do anything at all besides skimming that money. Historically, countries with less resources are forced to rely on innovation and progress.

      "lost, lazy, corrupt and depressed" accusations are based on your history as a whole, not just right now.
      Lets compare: China 2,500 to 2,000 years ago, dug out their rivers deeper, dug massive canals so they could dock ships safely, transport goods inland, as well as major arterials (roads, bridges) that created major workable economic cities.
      Africans didn't, and they are poor today because of it, and still blame the lack of ports and un-navigable rivers for their economic woes. Ironically it is China today that is also doing it for Africa.

      Much like when the South African citizens murdered, terrorized, and ran off the white farmers (the "Boers") and then were given that farm land for free, they were also handed the seeds by the government, free of charge, to plant and farm their new land. What did they do? Sold the bags of seed and fertilizer on the black market and kept a portion for themselves to grind down into a flour to make (very untasty, non-nutritious) bread to eat. None of the seeds were planted, the ground sat bare and dry, and now South Africa is facing a famine, with 11% of their population starving, and that number is ever increasing.

    As a Black South African, 🇿🇦🇿🇦
    What JP and this lady are saying is exactly what I've been saying for years but I have been attacked by many blacks and guilty whites.
    South Africa has been free from white oppression for 30 years and our idiot politicians still use Apartheid as an excuse for their incompetance and corruption.
    If South Africa really focused on economic reform, I believe our GDP would have been $1t or more (currently $350b).
    The current government has done very little interms of improvement, in fact most of the infrastructure we are using today was built by our colonizers and Apartheid government. The current government can't even maintain the infrastructure and institutions that were built by the Apartheid government.
    Every rational and sane person knows that Apartheid was evil and atrocious but to blame a system that's been dead for almost 30 years now is just fvkng stupid.
    Our next elections are in 2024 and for the first time since 1994 we think the current ruling party (ANC) will be removed by a coalition between the main opposition party (DA) and other smaller parties.

      Destiny is what you make of it. My personal view on these problems: you can only accelerate history so much. Europe went through the same shit: religious persecution, tribal wars, famines, pick a desaster. Took us hundreds of years to get through that and learn enough from it to get to where we are now, and looking into some Euroean regions, like the Balkan, it seems that not even now everyone has learned those lessons. Other world regions had that process as well. In China, the story of the unification of their country has basically become mythology, even the U.S. had their famous civil war. The African nations will get there as long as they keep working on it, it just takes some more time.

In the case when colonisation means not ruling over a state and becoming wealthy from that state, but instead the new form of white colonisation where the wealth of a place was stolen completely and taken to the other nation. Making the colony weaker. And corruption as a normal thing for the criminal as well as the victim.

    As a South African, I completely agree. Colonialism and Apartheif being the reason for our poor socio-economic situation is no excuse. Especially since other countries have also been colonised and oppressed and have grown despite their initial worser situation. An example of such countries is India, Singapore, etc. Our problems stem from poor leadership and management of the country and its people and resources, not to mention the scandals and crazy corruption from the ANC. government. Many previously oppressed groups have even acknowledged that certain aspects of society were better back in the post apartheid era such as the energy production and economic state. More people are suffering now from economic stuggles than post 1994 when South Africa was an oppressive state.

      Victimhood is def a problem.

      Liberty means accepting all that comes with it and bwing prepared to lool the former and would-be future colonizers in the face as equals and being prepared to wage war with and decimate their forces if and when the need arises.
      Simple fact, Africa, and all black/negro nations have a common enemy that meddles in and sabotages our affairs, politics, community, culture, etc. Not acknowledging that this enemy exists and cmpreparing to deal with it's advances is like sending people out into a field to plant a garden, but not telling them that the gardwn is teeming with venomous snakes, wolves, etc. If the those that prey on your people aren't with first, then they're not being sent to succeed.

      And this "play the victim" idea it's so emphasized in education, general culture, media, etc., that it's very difficult to change some people's minds about it. Especially when some parties (like Peronism) revive this idea all the time.

    Am Kenyan and have been telling this to everyone wh cares to listen. The problem is victim mentality is so soothing because it relieves people of the responsibility for their actions. Colonisation in my country was abolished almost 60 years ago. 60 years of self rule is alot if you have an agenda, an economic ability and the fortitude to fall through.
    Within the same time, Singapore, which had the same GDP as Kenya in the 70s took off like a rocket. In the same time the two are in different leagues.
    Am not taking down what we have gained, but we could be better only if we let of of the pacifier that is 'colonisation put us here'. It is growing old fast.

      Even Lee Kuan Yew. Kagame's hero, understood this.
      Indeed in Kenya we do have grand corruption that is the puncture in our wheels. However in intellectual conversations many still fall on the numbing effects of neo colonialization on our attempts to grow. We cannot ignore the feelers connecting to pre colonial industry that control most sectors of the economy. What am saying is we have enough time, resource and sovereignty to alter some of these to encourage this bottom up economy. Grand corruption is sucking at that teat hence dampening attempts to clean out the slate.
      Kenya needs a Kagame who places. As Trump says, country first. Most of who we have had have been paying homage to status quo which leaves open back doors to economic control.

      @mukuhi Рік тому +5

      It is commendable that the speakers are moderate in their views on the matter. When we (esp in Kenya) try to have a discourse on economic empowerment, we are bombarded by extreme suggestions. E.g as in the intellectual circles you mentioned, they dissect one symptom and really go on a tangent with it. Whereas the other extreme will avoid looking into past experiences and insist on all local problems being solved through local solutions.
      In that melee the conversation is drowned and a politician steps in to create their own palatable narrative to win the populace over.
      Economic power is the main incentive to gain political power in Kenya. We have to appreciate that the former colonies in the continent have varied characteristics. The Kenyan solution to economic empowerment would be to dwell at the confluence of the interests of those in govt and economic activities of the people.
      I have made an observation on some of our economic activities. Neo-colonialism has continually fed us through media and schooling on the limited ways of advancing ourselves economically. We need to use our advantage of knowing local terrain, markets and practices in advancing economically.

    When I first went to a former colonised African country I was shocked. Compared to many African countries this was relatively wealthy but I was shocked by the level of corruption. The corruption was everywhere. Everyone had to be bribed in order to get anything done - from the moment we stepped off the plane, to the moment we left. To get anywhere or to get a job done it took hours longer than it should have done due to the haggling over the bribery and sometimes it was the only way to get things running. The corruption was everywhere, from the top to the bottom of their society. This created a chaotic disorganised country and I realised then that some countries are never going to get out of their poverty status until they get to grips with corruption.

      This is really just the natural order. Corruption is everywhere advantage can be gained, the "1st world" has just had more practice at obscuring it. All human interaction is based on advantage, either short or long term this is the way because we are animals as much as we like to forget not so long ago our brains were wrestling with the idea of chasing a wooly mammoth as a furtherance of the tribe and the self. Then the tribal nature compounds it further by anyone who is different is "outsider" and not your concern.. if you doubt this look at all the fights of "My God" "My sports team" "My family" "My ideology" "My side on the line in the sand"

      Lee Kwan Yew was deeply inspired by conservative politicians of India. He was a pen friend with many in India.
      He had many letters exchanges with late Atal Bihari Vajpayee.
      Both of them mentioned in their biographies.
      It was Atal Bihari Vajpayee who supported Lee Kwan Yew against aggressive attempts by Malaysia, Britain and China.

      Colonialism was definitely a factor in the current state of Africa. It's not the only reason or even the main reason, but it's there, and it negatively affected African politics, economy and society. Read up on what happened in Congo and its repercussion to the modern day - Belgians really went psycho there. Some places are worse than others, but impact of Europeans wasn't good on African people. She's not bringing that up here, because she's being interviewed by a right wing professor. But, just because she doesn't talk about it doesn't mean she's not thinking it. She just doesn't think that's the only reason.
