This is the fuller version of the presentation I delivered at the Re-Engaging Pan-Africanism Conference at Birmingham City University, Dec 2018.
The presentation explores the relationship between Culture & Economics as an attempt to:
Rescue "culture" from reductive definitions by demonstrating the relationship between it & economic development.
Demonstrate how revolutionary movements have pursued economic development from a culturally appropriate foundation.
Its pre-recorded, but will be broadcast with a live chat. I look forward to hearing your feedback.

North Africa, bordering the Mediterrean Sea, Red Sea and Atlantic Ocean, is home to the country Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt and Sudan. It's unique culture and societies a blend of Amazigh, Arab and African has led many people to assume that North Africa is seperate or a world apart from the rest of Africa. Despite its connection to the wider Mediterrean trade and Europe's attempt to take North Africa out of the continent, the region is still part of Africa. Culture, history and trade attests to the region's complexity.
Officials in the United States look upon Africans as people “in need of help” or people who “need to be told what to do”, and this is destroying relations between Africa and Washington, according to the former African Union representative to the US, Arikana Chihombori-Quao.
“The US needs to call a timeout and treat Africans with respect,” Chihombori told host Steve Clemons, adding that the US-Africa Leaders Summit hosted by the White House this week “will fail unless Americans see Africans as equals".
Chihombori-Quao argues that pan-African unity is the only path for the continent to be less dependent on outside powers.
