France's involvement in Africa goes deeper than colonial history. In this video, we uncover how France maintains its influence over African nations through exploitative practices like the CFA franc currency system, colonial taxes, and their interventions against African leaders who challenge their control. From historical colonization to modern-day economic manipulation, we expose the tactics used to keep African nations under France's grip and the leaders who’ve paid the ultimate price for resisting.

Join us as we explore the dark truth behind France’s power over Africa and the fight for true independence.

Captain Ibrahim Traoré stepped off the aircraft, and time in Burkina Faso held its breath. But this wasn’t just about his safe return. This was about what came with him and who came to meet him. The Prime Minister was there, but so was someone else. The Russian Ambassador. Standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the Burkinabé high command. That’s not protocol. That’s a message. And the message was clear: Russia is not a distant friend anymore. It is now physically present in the political theatre of Burkina Faso.
As the African Diaspora saying goes, "I am because we are, and we are because I am."

In 2022, Ibrahim Traoré wasn’t a household name. He was a relatively unknown military captain in Burkina Faso—young, unassuming, disciplined. But behind that calm exterior was a deeply strategic mind, shaped by years of witnessing foreign interventions that promised peace and delivered nothing. While international troops flooded the Sahel and drone strikes turned villages into craters, the people of Burkina Faso were still dying. The nation, like much of Africa, had outsourced its security—and paid the price in blood. As the African Diaspora saying goes, "I am because we are, and we are because I am."

The ancient coastal city of Gedi, Kenya—a pre-colonial 11th-century trading hub built by Persian and later Arab settlers—boasted palaces, mosques, and advanced infrastructure before its mysterious 17th-century abandonment. Now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, its ruins face threats from climate change and neglect, mirroring risks to Africa’s few protected sites. UNESCO’s Nairobi conference highlighted armed conflicts (Ukraine, Mali) and disasters (Uganda’s fire) as escalating dangers. Archaeologist George Abungu stressed that heritage preservation must prioritise local values over mere UNESCO listings. Gedi’s caretakers work to safeguard its "mystical beauty," though much of its history remains lost. The site underscores Africa’s underrepresented global heritage amid growing crises.

Al Jazeera’s Catherine Soi reports from the Gedi monument in Kenya's Kilifi County.
