Africa�s second liberation

In schools up and down the continent, little children are taught that heroic Africans liberated the continent from racist white colonial regimes and various events and parades were held to celebrate the occasion.

Colonialism in Africa is remembered as one of the worst crimes against humanity of the modern era. The exploitative economic system that underpinned colonialism remains alive and well today. Africa’s liberation was from racist, colonial government. If this was to be the first stage of liberation, then the second stage must involve freeing Africa from the current white minority, who control the majority of African land and resources.
