White people are bold, arrogant racist...and look at what they are doing...This is the most arrogant racist act in the 2020s. They will no pick the African leaders the same People who degenrated Africa. Running around with imunity. As someone who suffered brutally under White rule I know they will have White led militaries, polices on Africa soil...As Dr JHC u will go back into slavery and its here.

The idea that “Africans sold Africans” has been repeated so often that people treat it like complete history, when it is anything but. It strips away context and forces a modern racial reading onto a pre-colonial African world that did not organise itself around European ideas of race. Africa was not one people and it was not one identity. It was made up of kingdoms, empires, nations and ethnic groups with their own political systems, cultures and interests. So when conflict happened, it was not “Black people selling Black people” in the way that phrase is now used. It was political conflict between distinct societies, just as Europe had its own wars between rival states and kingdoms.

What Europe created through the transatlantic slave trade was something different in scale, structure and purpose. This was not simply an extension of local wars. It was a racialised, hereditary and industrial system built for profit, conquest and extraction. European demand drove it, expanded it and turned human beings into global commodities on a scale the world had not seen before. That is why the “Africans sold Africans” argument is not serious history. It is a lazy deflection that avoids naming Europe’s central role in designing, racialising and profiting from the transatlantic slave trade.

Since its formation in 2024, the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) – comprising Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso – has faced relentless attacks by Western-backed terrorists, economic isolation and sovereignty violations by Western-aligned African states, and endless slander from Western and Western-aligned media. Despite these externally-imposed challenges, its member states have continued to record economic and political wins, and the West is clearly not happy.

On April 2nd, 2026, US-based Western propaganda outlet Human Rights Watch (HRW) put out a report alleging that the Burkina Faso military had perpetrated war crimes over the last 2 years, leading to the deaths of over 1200 innocent Burkinabé citizens. The report was quickly amplified by Western media, but didn’t have quite its intended effect. It was met with immediate backlash from Africans of good conscience across the Motherland and its diaspora, as well as the Burkina Faso government itself, which pointed out the report’s dishonest methodology, its unreliable sources, and the clear nefarious motives of its authors.

In this report for the Spearhead, @okorieuche_ examines the reality behind the harrowing picture that this “report” attempts to paint of Burkina Faso, and what it means for Africa.
