Africa: if I were not African

Categories: Sub-Saharan Africa, Lesotho, Malawi, Development, Governance, Politics

In a post titled, [They] don’t say “Malawi”; they just say “Africa.”, Sotho writes, [1] “If I were not African, I wonder whether it would be clear to me that Africa is a place where the people do not need limp gifts of fish but sturdy fishing rods and fair access to the pond. I wonder whether I would realize that while African nations have a failure of leadership, they also have dynamic people with agency and voices.”
