From "AfricANON"

I was reading this blog called the diary of a mad Kenyan woman, she was infuriated, and rightfully so about the issue of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, having so much control of Africa, such that the had control over who flys over the country of Namibia. This is really pathetic on us Africans as a whole, despite all the years of education we still settle at the bottom, The rest of world really does not seem to notice us as equals, but rather as slaves or cheap labour. The disdain is obvious and worse is the xenophobia amongst ourselves. Don't we have educated indivuduals? don't we have the natural resources? The idea of a quick financial fix accompanied with greed is the destruction of us, as a people.
