RACISM AS A TOOL FOR THE UNDERDEVELOPMENT OF SOUTHERN COUNTRIES
Online

Description

Before going into detail on this subject, let me say that I'm astonished to be talking about racism today. For I believe that in the 21st century, we will no longer talk about the concept of racism.

I think people should understand that racism has held back the development of countries around the world, and in this case the countries of the global South, whose development is still lagging behind because of the myth built around white supremacy. For example, Africa is paying for the pollution caused by Western industries, and we think this is normal, but it's not.

Racism has meant that black ideas continue to be nipped in the bud, and yet black innovations should be promoted and encouraged for the development of Africa and the whole world.

The question every person would ask themselves today would be, is what I'm doing today useful for myself and for others?

It is on this basis that we can together eliminate racism, which has become an inescapable scourge for the development of Africa.

This question should be asked in all areas of life (political, economic, environmental, social, etc.).

During this anti-racism week, we should pay tribute to those who gave their youth and even their lives in the fight against racism. These are people like Martin Luther, Bob Maley, Marcus Garvey, Web du Bois etc,,, As activists we must embody the ideology of these people to develop Africa, which continues to be systematically plundered by the white man on the grounds that he is seeking to develop it.
