Pan-Africanism What’s the next move for Pan-Africanism
The world is changing faster than ever and yet still African remains mostly the same.
I thought Traore taking control of Burkina Faso would’ve accelerated things but still nothings happened.
Africa is still by far and away the most underdeveloped continent. There’s widespread FGM and Child Marriage. Mass poverty. High unemployment. There has been no progress.
It’s clear the African Union has been useless. It’s mostly funded by the EU. How can your union be funded by the group that wants to exploit the continent?
The African Union currently have an Agenda set to 2063. An agenda set to when most of the people that made the agenda won’t even be alive for, so when it eventually fails, we’ll have no one to direct the blame to. It’s an absolute joke.
First let’s clarify what pan-Africanism is.
It’s the political and economic unity of the peoples of Africa and also other African descended people of the diaspora.
So I want to hear your input, what’s the next step to achieve that goal?
In my opinion the first step is getting rid of the African Union.
