As an African who grew up in peaceful Senegal, west Africa western TV and cinema is the weirdest thing ever. Thank you Ms. Sharma
Senegal peaceful? Weren't people protesting and burning and looting earlier this year?
@@kingsleynwofe1244 how many ppls r protesting, in Senegal? Who funded that protest through which ngo that's also needs to be seen.
Uk peaceful?? Weren't people rioting this year??@@kingsleynwofe1244
@@kingsleynwofe1244as now people are protesting and burning things in Paris, London, newyork and so on. Does those cities considered unsafe?

Rich and Poor exist all over the world, but some countries know how to hide theirs very well.
Like west CHINA SOUTH KOREA ....MIDDLE EAST if you are poor go to desert 😂.
@@meg33333
Like seriously bro in middle East it's insane.
One can even expose china and South Korea but middle East.....
Literally stories of some labours makes me cry.
Europe knows how to hide their stuff so well..
"Narratives can be deadlier than missiles".
True
Hmmm say that to Nagasaki and hiroshima
Indians and Africans should join hands in such matters. We suffer similar problems and could benifit each other. Global south as it's called needs to stand united
We have been brainwashed, it's like wherever CNN/ BBC broadcast we pay attention more than what our local media announce
Not all Indians though, some of them are always West wannabes.
As an American, we always see Africa as this war-torn, post-colonial Hellscape with no prospects of a good future. It's good to see it in a more balanced perspective.
How else can d powerful take ur tax dollars and buy out politicians/govt all over d globe for their corporations??
We’re tools, that’s all. We’re here to give them funding/currency power/influence power/research funding etc. etc.
Are you daft? Without investment of the west African will cease to exist! Africas new investors China is colonising them at a rate unseen to man 😂. Africa will die if the west closes off health and food aid let alone investment 🥴
Basically want to snatch the resources..
Africa should just kick out western media
It will not help . Narratives are built by the media outside the country so banning does not help . They need to create their media houses which broadcast in western nations to show their perspective
Absolutely right . Good choose of headline .
As a Kenyan, I've been chanting this for ages! Its all a ploy for more money!
@@Africaisthefuture-zh8bo not money, money is illusion, it's called control of decision making around the world through narrative building & flow of money based on certain ppls benifit.
Maybe it is time for Kenyans to tell their own stories, someone take up a camera and get to work.
@@Ed-xv4sy oh we do...believe me, we do. Some have gone missing. Especially thoae that take up a camera to particularly expose government matters. They. Go. Missing.
@@Ed-xv4sy my God. My comment was deleted. Kenyans that have a focus on "taking a camera and getting to work about government issues" HAVE GONE MISSING. sp forgive us for being just a tad bit fearful. You spoke as if you were talking to a child. Gtfoh.
Absolutely agree! Narratives are powerful than a nuclear missile..... in the hybrid warfare scenario of this generation.
Finally somebody is talking abt this openly! 🎉
Recently there has been a wave of RUclipsrs visiting Jamaica and almost all the videos have a similar title of visiting the most dangerous slum in Kingston. We are only know for crime, beach, Rasta, and ganga. A very small portion of the population identify as Rastafarian, and a small percent smoke. As for crime that I cannot deny but they make Jamaica look like a war zone . The USA likes to keep their feet on our necks too.
You forgot Reggae.
They used to do the same with India. Some still do while conditions in west are not good as well. They hide the bad.
@@pavanshetty9806 they still do visit mostly slums and so how we are backward to justify the colonialism
The same with Mexico and South America! And FP is guilty of this "Negative Narratives" like the one the other day about Mexicos mayor but forgot to mention poverty was at a record low.
I had goosebumps 😢
excelent article. Palki, you are way ahead of all the Journalists
Different way of looking, great 👍
Thank you Palki Sharma. ♥from South Africa.
Narratives are deadlier than missile - Canadian narrative against India
I live in Canada, you should see how Indians are treated here. GOVT is doing this to win votes. Trudeau will ousted if he doesn't figure something out and soon, then he comes up with this story, a story he knows most Canadians will get behind. By being 'TOUGH' on India he can gain back most liberal voters and some NDP voters as well as undecided voters.
Thank you 😊, that's why I subscribe ur channel ❤
Comparing SA to Denmark tells me all I need to know about their 'narrative'
well said
Narratives are powerful, true or absurd 😅
Yeah like how, not even Mauritius most developed African country have any close to development level of Denmark
@ardi08 Mauritius is not the most developed country, it just have high gdp per capita,the reason is because its a small country, come on guys, use common sense.
Palki thank you very much for bringing the truth.
You deserve an award from Africa🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for being our voice🙏
Thank you for reporting the truth about Africa. I just subsrcibed
Very true.
As a Zimbabwean, we've been affected so much by this. Unfortunately some our own people participate & seem to love negative narratives. It took me travelling for me to realise that my country is actually not bad at all. We need to change the narratives as Africans.😂
Grew up in Nairobi Kenya; beautiful country. Planning to visit next year after 60 years.
Karibu
This is why Sharma is the queen. Thank you for this report, we Africans love you.
Very good reporting !!!!
😂😂😂 IMF justify their biased narrative of investment by blaming it on local media, trying to assert control on local media.....and when they does suddenly media becomes positive again 😂😂
Only Palki Sharma can do this special report. You are indeed a special one
Africa is so underrated
I have never heard more facts and truth in a single video.
Thankyou first post 🇿🇲🇿🇲❤️❤️
And one media is saying it straight to the world 🎉
This is what concerns me. Thank You mam. Much needed topic. People must be made aware of the consequences of distorted media coverage.
"Narratives can be deadlier than missiles.". 😮
It's brain washing
Many a social platforms have no concern for the abuse of the adverse impact in myraid ways in all countries. Bloated narratives and false news are playing havoc in myraid spheres. Palkiji coverage is relevant for public.
Love your coverage 😊
Very correct
Palki nailed it on the importance of narrating a story
Well said Palki.
You are so right
Thank you from Nigeria.
Loans are a trap for a country. In the long run a country is much better off not being able to get loans
Almost Every western countries made up of loans.But they spend in their countries infrastructure and improving their living standards.
not really. its a tool progress
Not the case , every country has taken loan and has been taking loans
@@AshutoshKumar-ub7um they pay less taxes compared to other African countries and they were never colonised or still being sabotaged. Look that up
@@kennyking5606 i think you don't know world 1 and 2 almost destroyed Europe but they built it again by their people.why not Africa they have good resources.
Pure facts
Palki nice journalism
equating Nigeria and Kenya with Malaysia, Egypt with Thailand!! that's just bizarre.
And why is that,there both middle income countries
@@fredmugo1596 just compare their's GDP pr capita. Malaysia is at 13K USD Nigeria is at 1K USD.
One of the best video ever from this channel
Thanks for this piece. Africa will be free
I hope we are offsetting this loss with Aid and Grants in Africa.
True facts 💯
So true
World always in Unannounced war
Narratives can be deadlier than missiles❤ i want to whistle on that one! 🎉🎉🎉
Don’t agree with this Firstpost article- as a South African I can assure you that the negatives about South Africa are entirely accurate and it’s not biased news media. Secondly there is absolutely no comparison to Denmark whatsoever
Let's rethink every war that are happening right now under this light.
Countries shaping their own narrative will have the exact opposite effect: Hiding the shortcomings from the world (or at least trying to).
Palki you are part.
I so love you. Thanks for removing the other lady though i didn't like how she say news kinda bias
❤❤
i am so happy we have Palik representing Bharat
finally someone saying something about aljazera covarage
Firstpost, Wion would be doing the same no? Everyone has their own priorities. Every Media house has its biases. It's up to the user to believe what he / she wants to believe.
But they never show you stealing their resources.
Kenya at the moment is not in bias...things are truly not good
S. Africa lead ICC case agsinst Israel is good news?😁😁😁😁
Its hitting on its own foot
@@dancestatus1922 how is that ? They r taking retribution on Israel for supporting UK apartheid in South Africa.
@@surojeetchatterjee does Israel care🤪
@@dancestatus1922 definitely there is a pressure of recognition remains. Will Israel remain an Anglo Saxon vassal state forever without good relations with Brics countries or establish itself as independent Jewish state. 🤷🏽
Whats Firstpost's narrative towards India? Towards the rest of the world?
There is huge drug addicted homeless people area in US. Their media never portrays that. And our media also doesn't talk about this. India on the other hand is portrayed as the poorest, dirtiest country. All the rape happens in India only. All social evil is present in India, minority is tortured in India.
Then there are channels like dhruv rathee, who doesn't live in India but doesn't leave an opportunity to bash India's image.
Who is funding the global medias???
Why don't you cover Sonam Wangchuk's protest?
😮😮
Oh my goddess
You mentioned about Al Jazeera but you could mention western media for downplaying Israel atrocities in palestine, in fact, there is a debate about this issue in the whole world
It's not in their focus they do favour of Israel but look at the dedication of narrative you can understand what I m saying western media more interested in we are good guys it's like white man's burden they are not interested in Muslim Umma or greater Israel coverage
West Dogaley, jaichand ke bhai hai
Dc days we have tiktok and twitter we don’t need depend on propaganda media anymore
Negative news impact our mind very badly or it impact in relationship too
As capitalism ramps up, expect dystopia.
@@demontrader1222 communism oligarchy is also bogus.
@surojeetchatterji9966 I am not a communist. I am a capitalist. If I am going to live in crooked times where these people keep whining on about imperialism while robbing the working class, I might as well be super predator.
Like you’re doing with China
ever heard of some one saying this about you which you know is false then people find out the truth.
News channel not in outside world but Indian government is also funding godi media, partly your channel as well to broadcast as per government requirements
What you are saying here is true but this news holds good for us as well
thailand is similar to egypt, joke of the millenium
Africans gather here 😅
This is why i believe north korea is facing something else 😂
BLACKLISTED IN FATF,money laudering and terrorism..do you know one terrorist from north korea?
No it is because of our selfish tribe and family centered leadership. We just need a little patriot oriented leadership and away from affirmative ideology.
Algaz era. Against is...but all others with is ,,included you

Through fire and smoke we can see that the streets are much better than those in India.
Yes your vision is so clear that can't see the loot of british because you mean about money not development
This segment felt like Palki is trying to explain her parents (Sharma Ji) why she chose this career of narrative making over engineering, medical science, economics, or law.😂😂
Hypocrite part of the world Bots r frustrated with this only? 😂 more coming.
You aint seen nothing yet. We Indians are going to DOMINATE capitalism. So get used to it.

The problem starts with this news framing. Africa is a continent and yet ypu keep comparing it with countries. You would never imagine of compoaring Asia with say Germany or France. Africa has 50+ countries and each with their own unique problems. Try to care a little bit more about the probnlems you report on.
Aljazeera is showing what all the other media groups including you palki cannot show about israel
INDIA and Africa has suffered the same problem and biasedness from Western Media only sowing BAD things about INDIA and Africa .
China has been helping Africa to establish an independent media ecosystem for at least a decade 😁😁. Palki should acknowledge this fact
😂😂😂😂
140 crore chinese but 1000 crores of chinese bots.
Then why can't china first set up independent media ecosystem in china itself ? Why people disappear when they criticise communist govt ?
Why are people in Guinea protesting against Chinese mining firms then?
Why are Kenyans protesting against Chinese traders?
Why are there protests against Chinese fish factories in Gambia?
Nice try wum@0, but China isn't any less exploitative than the West either.
@@Trueye-sl2mr it's like saying 5 eyes helping establish independent media of Africa. Slavery is slavery be it from one side or other side.
Don't fall for this guys. An English student will always say words are the most important thing in the world. In reality, it's always actions which brings about the changes on ground.
