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.

We all knew the West was the main cause for Africa's poverty but a mzungu by the name of Henry Nichols broke down why.

Pres. Mahama, Fmr. Vice President Dr. Bawumia and his wife, together with Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings and her children, arrive at the final funeral rites of the Asantehemaa#joyprime

The event followed a now familiar pattern: a small convoy of dusty 4x4 vehicles drove on to the edge of the airstrip at Galkayo in Puntland, north-central Somalia; armed security guards took up watchful positions nearby and a number of bemused-looking men stepped gingerly from the cars and lined up to have their photographs taken by the media.

On this occasion there were 11 of them; all had been hostages until that morning. They were sailors from a Malaysian cargo vessel that had been hijacked by Somali pirates a few years ago and held until a ransom was paid for their release.

One of them gave a brief account of what had happened. "On November 26, 2010 our ship was hijacked in the Indian Ocean. Their demand was 20 million. After that, they threatened the owner. You now increase money or we will shoot the crew. The owner didn't increase the money and then one Indian is shot with just three bullets. Then they hit us and tortured us. Tell your family to bring us money, otherwise we will kill you!"

The crew had been held for three and a half years but they were the fortunate ones. Five of their crew mates had died in that time. Now the survivors were going home and a UN plane with two envoys on board was flying in to see them to safety.

Such scenes have become relatively commonplace in Galkayo in recent times. Eighty percent of global trade is carried by sea and Somalia sits on a key maritime route linking Europe and Asia. More than 18,000 ships pass its shores every year. Over the past decade, Somali pirates, often former fishermen whose traditional livelihoods have been destroyed by foreign trawlers and toxic waste dumping, have attacked more than 300 vessels and kidnapped 700 people.

Faced with such a threat, the international community responded aggressively. In 2008, European states, the US and others began sending naval forces to these seas. They are still there today - warships, planes and helicopters patrolling thousands of square miles and doing a fair job of keeping the hijackers at bay. The UN and others have also played an increasing role in facilitating negotiations for the release of hostages - such as those set free at places such as Galkayo - for whose liberty large ransoms have been paid.

But if the problem is now slowly coming under control in Somalia, the same cannot be said for other parts of the world where piracy is on the increase. Lawlessness, desperation, poverty, greed and even political radicalism have brought the phenomenon to the waters of South America, Asia and, perhaps most aggressively, to West Africa.

In an effort to understand the reasons why, Bertrand Monnet, a French academic and filmmaker, has been travelling to piracy hot spots around the coast of Africa. In an extraordinary and very tense series of encounters, he came to face to face with heavily armed pirate gangs operating in and around the Niger Delta, where Nigeria's huge offshore oil industry, which employs thousands of expatriates, offers rich ransom pickings. It gradually became clear that piracy in West Africa has many of the same root causes as piracy in Somalia and elsewhere, not least of which is that those who don't share in the benefits and profits of global trade have ever fewer reasons these days to respect the security of those who do.

A young Robert Mugabe pushes for racial equality in a changing Zimbabwe (then Southern Rhodesia). He spoke to the late Morley Safer, of 60 Minutes fame, then a CBC foreign correspondent.

We are our ancestors! It's a declaration we all champion. But if Afrikans are their ancestors are not europeans their ancestors as well? If this is true why are we embracing "white allies"? We answer that question and more in this episode.

Made with the direct participation of Malcolm X and narrated by Ossie Davis, this work of political cinema offers an intense, incendiary vision of black revolution across America. A forgotten masterpiece from radical filmmaker, theorist and founder of Cinéma Éngagé, Édouard de Laurot.

Suppressed in its initial release within the USA, the film went on to attain international recognition both as an artistic triumph and
as a work of authentic political acuity and power.

First Prize, Venice International Film Festival
Third World Film Festival, Paris:
Special Honours as the "First Authentic Underground Film from the USA"
First Prize, Black Film Festival, Chicago, USA
Awarded and honored around the world
from Africa to Australia, from Russia to Latin America.

Screened on the BBC, the CBC (Canada),
and other international television networks.

Homage o o o!
The owner of today I pay homage
Let my homage be acknowledged
Homage to Olódùmarè who claims the right path
The one who flatly spread the mat to cover his entire body
I pay homage let my homage be acknowledged
Homage to the palm of the hand
Homage to the sole of the foot
Homage to the sole of the foot which does not grow hair up to the lap
The owner of today I salute let my homage be acknowledged
Homage to the owner of dog and its chain
Homage to the owner of horse and its chain
When butterfly enters farm it acknowledges the birds in the forest
When farmer enters farm he acknowledges kùẹ̀kùẹ̀
The farmer who enters farm without paying homage to kùẹ̀kùẹ̀ gets himself hit on the shin by the hoe.
Ikú tó pa ojúgbà ẹni-í pòwe mọ́ni
⁣‘‘The death that kills one’s age mate speaks to one proverbially’’.
Aláwo á kú; oníṣègùn á rọ̀run; adáhunṣe ò níí gbéle.
The diviner will die; the medicine man will go to heaven; the magician will not remain forever on earth.

Ikú ogun ní ńpa akíkanjú; ikú odò ní ń pa òmùwẹ̀; ikú ara-ríré níí ń pa arẹwà, màjàmàsá ní ń pa onítìjú; òwò tádàá bá mọ̀ níí ń ká àdá léhín.
It is death related to warfare that kills the warrior; it is the death associated with the river that kills the swimmer; it is the death attendant on preening that kills the beautiful person; wondering whether to stand and fight or run kills the easily embarrassed person; the trade that the cutlass knows knocks out its teeth.
Gbèsè nikú; kò sẹ́ni tí kò níí pa.
Death is a debt; there is no one it will not kill.
Ikú lorúkọ àjẹ́pẹ̀kun.
Death is the name one bears at the last.
Àìsàn là ń wò, a kì í wo ikú.
One treats an illness; one does not treat
Ọ̀nà ọ̀fun, ọ̀nà ọ̀run: méjèèjì bákan náà ni wọ́n rí.
The pathway of the throat, the pathway to the skies: the two are very much alike.
Ogún pa ará, odò-ó gbé iyèkan lọ, àjọ̣bí sọnù lọ́nà Ìkòròdú, a ò tún rẹ́ni bá rìn mọ́, àfi ẹni tí ń tanni.
Death took one’s kin; the river carries off one’s siblings; one’s blood relations disappear on the road to Ìkòròdú; one has nobody left to keep one company save those intent on deceiving one. (An expression of the statement that one has lost all those one could rely on.)
Àìdé ikú là ńso ààjà mọ́rùn; bíkú bá dé á já ààjà sílẹ̀ a gbé aláàjà lọ.
It is when death has not come calling that one ties charms around one’s neck; when death comes calling, it rips the charm away and carries its wearer off.

Ó di ọjọ́ tí aláró bá kú ká tó mọ oye aṣọ tó gbà rẹ.
It is on the day of the dyer’s death that one knows how many pieces of cloth she had taken in to dye.
Òmùwẹ̀ lodò ńgbé lọ.
It is the expert swimmer that is carried off by the river. (Whatever one is addicted to doing is likely to be one’s death.)
Àìdé ikú là ḿbọ Ògún; àìdé ikú là ḿbọ òrìṣà; bíkú bá dé ikú ò gbebọ.
It is when death has not called that one sacrifices to Ògún; it is when death has not called that one sacrifices to the òrìṣà; when death comes calling, death does not heed sacrifices.
There is no medicine or sacrifice to stop death when its time comes.
Àwáyé-àìkú ò sí; ẹ̀rù lásán la fi ń dá ba ara wa.
There is no living without dying; we only scare ourselves [with death].
Ikú ńpa aláwọ̣ ẹkùn, káláwọ agílíńtí ó múra.
Death kills the person clothed in leopard skin; the person clothed in lizard skin had better prepare himself or herself.
Ikú tó pa òwè ń pòwe fún ẹdun.
The death that killed the black monkey sends a proverbial message to the colobus monkey.

Ikú tóbi loba; àrà tó wu ikú nikú ń da. Death is a mighty king indeed; whatever it chooses to do, that it does.
Ọjọ́ a bá kú là ń dère, èèyàn ò sunwọ̀n láàyè.
It is on the day one dies that one becomes an idol; no one is appreciated when alive.
Àtisùn ẹ̀dá à ṣẹ̀hìn Olódùmarè.
A human being’s dying is not hidden from the Creator. (Only Olódùmarè determines the time of a person’s death.)
Kí á jìnnà séjò tí a à bẹ́ lórí; ikú tí yóò panni á jìnnà síni.
One should stand far back from a snake that has not been beheaded; the death that would kill deserves a wide berth. (One should recognize dangerous situations and keep away from them.)

Burkina Faso ABANDONS Colonial Tradition of Barrister Wigs!In a bold move, Burkina Faso has decided to ditch a relic of its colonial past - the traditional barrister wigs worn by lawyers in court.

Marcus Garvey called us the "scientifically weaker race" (which is still true today), and instructed us to "make sure we have a race of scientists par excellence". He understood then that our lack of involvement in science puts us at a huge disadvantage. How can we nation build and protect ourselves without being engage in STEM? Join me this Saturday at 8pm EST as I discuss how we can prepare for the technologically advanced world that is fast approaching with Dr. Kevin Kornegay, director of the Cybersecurity Assurance and Policy (CAP) Center at Morgan State University.
