You are 100 percent correct. Its all a trick to make Africa weak BUT we now see what's going on and we are coming back. These other Countries need African people, and resources's.
*Key Takeaways:* - *Colonialism and Neocolonialism*: Historical and systemic factors that have contributed to Africa's challenges. - *Corrupt Relationships*: Between African elites and foreign corporations, perpetuating dependency and poverty. - *African Agency and Solidarity*: Prioritizing collective prosperity and working together to create a brighter future. - *Breaking the Cycle*: Recognizing and addressing the root causes of Africa's challenges to create a new narrative.
@@GlobalPulseWithMonicah I agree with your submission. But in practical terms, it will be a tough and uphill task. Most of them have a faulty mindset and still don't believe in themselves. The average male or female thinks a foreigner from the west is a more suitable mate to live with and a better escape route from poverty ☹️. Again, look at the gender war that is sweeping across Africa and the same Africans are at the forefront of it🤣
@@GlobalPulseWithMonicah colonialism may have contributed but we should have lived passed that by now. But the leaders have decided to now be African colonial masters. The average African leader wants to be a life president and handover to his children. Who does that? You speak , they intimidate you and put you in jail. I like using Indians because they were once colonised. There is no wyhere in the world you will not find an Indian. Despite all the knowledge they gathered in the Diaspora, they come back home to develop the system. That's why they can boast of good healthcare, top research universities, IT etc
@@GlobalPulseWithMonicah Also, don't forget the 'unseen' burden the average African carry just to please the whole family. Everyone wants a piece of you for support and so this puts pressure on them to try and meet up with any kind of jobs and end up being miserable and the struggle continues
@@GlobalPulseWithMonicah The new era of hookup culture has also further devalued ourselves as Africans. We take this as a means of survival to feed the family and some parents somehow support this.☹️. These are parts of the limiting factor to growth and prosperity.
Not all Africans are forced to leave the continent, but many are. See, it is done seamlessly by those countries that love Africa without Africans. It is the title of a book published in French, "L'Afrique sans les Africains." That is true. It has been happening since European colonizers were forced to decolonize. They take every opportunity thereafter to empty the continent.
@@GlobalPulseWithMonicah Absolutely. You are not mistaken. This is part of the globalization ideology that started in the 1980s. The US joined in to make it faster and more efficient.
When I was in Dubai, it seemed like the Africans did not have the best jobs. It seemed like Filipinos and arab people had the best positions. It does not seem fair.
It's not fair, the racism in Dubai and UAE at large is the most open racism ever. Even Africans have accepted and most Africans will go ahead and ignore all that
There's no doubt that colonialism had a devastating effect on Africa. And before that there was several hundred years of the slave trade. A lot of the corruption today can be traced back to the colonial period and although tribalism is as old as humankind, the slave trade often exacerbated the hostility between tribes. The slave trade flourished by pitting tribes against each other. And then there is the imported religions that have fostered even more hostility. So the West bears a huge responsibility for the turmoil in Africa today. Now much of Africa is turning East, thinking because they are political enemies of the West, they will be a better alternative. Hopefully, people of Africa realize that no country outside of the continent can be trusted. All outsiders, West or East, are only interested in, either short or long term, exploiting Africa's wealth of resources. Imagine if African countries could just unite and leverage that strength of solidarity against all outsiders.
What I hate is Kenyan politicians stealing from the pp And investing in Dubai real estate and other places. A Kenyan Indian kamlesh patttni scammed the Kenya pp of 10pc of gdp in the 90s over gold export compensation scheme yet he exported nothing. He was never indicted and is now in Dubai gold trade scamming Zimbabwe pp massively. Minerals don't benefit the pp
I need details about this, I'm gonna Google it, I be looking to educate myself about Africa politics as it what I will be sharing about next. Thanks for the highlight
Again, your caption says FORCED.. Do you think people are forced to go to the UAE? I doubt that maybe it's more of your country people. Most want to go to Europe and so they risk traveling through the Mediterranean sea. Please I would also like to know apart from the UAE , how many countries have you worked and lived in? Most of your views are based on your recent travel to the UAE and that might have some limitations. Countries like China, Indians, Philippines are predominantly in the west or even the UAE you normally talk about and yet they still contribute heavily to their countries in terms of remittances. Was Indian not colonised as most African countries?
Thank you for your thoughtful comment. You raise valid points, and I appreciate the opportunity to clarify and expand on my views. Firstly, regarding the use of the word 'forced', I acknowledge that it may not be the most accurate term. However, I'd argue that economic circumstances, lack of opportunities, and systemic inequalities can create a sense of coercion, where individuals feel they have no choice but to seek better lives abroad. You're right; many Africans aspire to migrate to Europe, and some take immense risks to get there. However, the UAE is a significant destination for many African migrants, and their experiences are often overlooked. Regarding my personal experiences, I appreciate your suggestion that my views might be limited to my recent travel to the UAE. You're correct that I haven't worked or lived in multiple countries. However, my goal is to amplify the voices and stories of those who have been impacted by modern-day colonialism and economic exploitation. You bring up excellent examples of countries like China, India, and the Philippines, which have significant diaspora communities contributing to their economies through remittances. Indeed, India was colonized, and its history and economic development are complex and multifaceted. However, I'd argue that the context of African countries is unique, with many still reeling from the legacy of colonialism, slavery, and ongoing economic exploitation. The brain drain, lack of investment in education and infrastructure, and systemic inequalities have created significant challenges for African economies. I appreciate your engagement and look forward to continuing this conversation. Let's work together to unpack these complex issues and explore ways to promote economic justice and equality for all.
@@GlobalPulseWithMonicah I will start from the last paragraph. Unfortunately.There can never be equality for all. Even in your home country, there are still some tribal sentiments and preferences. Most of the Africans don't genuinely love themselves. We don't want to even associate with our fellow skin color😂. We love our colonial masters than our brother 🤣. In the other paragraphs, the schools and infrastructures that are not functional, whose fault? Please don't put it on the colonial masters. The government schools and other public infrastructures are deliberately not made to function because the government officials have private schools and private investments hence they care about their profits. Again, I would say, a lot of Africans are not running to the UAE . Maybe only a specific group of countries and besides the data doesn't show we have lots of Africans residing in the UAE partly because there are no immigration benefits unlike the western countries
I couldn't agree more with your perspective. You're absolutely right that some issues, such as tribal sentiments, self-loathing, and corruption, are indeed internal problems that Africans must confront and resolve. It's true that government officials often prioritize personal profits over public welfare, leading to dysfunctional schools and infrastructure. These are valid criticisms that require introspection and accountability from African leaders and citizens. However, I also strongly believe that it would be shortsighted to dismiss the ongoing impact of colonialism and neocolonialism in Africa. The legacy of colonialism has created power imbalances, extracted resources, and imposed systems that perpetuate dependence and undermine African autonomy. While it's true that not all Africans are fleeing to the UAE, the fact remains that many are driven by economic necessity, seeking better opportunities abroad due to limited options at home. The lack of immigration benefits in the UAE is also a valid point, highlighting the complexities of global migration patterns. Ultimately, I think it's essential to acknowledge both the internal and external factors contributing to Africa's challenges. By recognizing the intricate web of historical, systemic, and internal issues, we can work towards a more comprehensive and inclusive solution that addresses the root causes of these problems.
@GlobalPulseWithMonicah Despite the impact of colonialism, I still believe Africans can at least do something for themselves. But the colonials feed on the greed of African leaders. They know they will betray one another because of personal aggrandisement. 🤣🤣
I've been to the U.S. and it was the worst poverty I have ever seen. Africans literally lie too much. The vast majority of countries in Africa are absolutely NOT wealthy. And when people ask you why you are in their country it is because they genuinely want to know. I ask people that in the U.S. all of the time because I hear Africans and other immigrants constantly complain but then they keep talking about how much they love where they are from and how great it is. So it makes me wonder, why you ever left. And you are doing the same thing in this video. I'm sure every country would be happy if more of you stayed in your country because you are taking up space and using our resources which takes things away from people in that country. Do you all not understand how offensive you are when you bring that attitude to someone else's country? And everyone was colonized. America was colonized too. That is a deflection and en excuse. So...with all of that being said...have you gone back home? And if Africa is so wealthy why is the continent full of beggars? People even scam their own family.
I understand your concerns and frustrations, but I'd like to offer a different perspective on Africa and its people. Firstly, it's essential to recognize that Africa is a vast and diverse continent, comprising 55 countries, each with its unique culture, history, and economic situation. While it's true that some African countries face significant economic challenges, it's inaccurate to generalize that the entire continent is poor. Africa is actually home to vast natural resources, including oil, diamonds, gold, copper, and cobalt, among others. However, the exploitation of these resources has often been controlled by external powers, including colonialists and multinational corporations. This has led to a phenomenon known as the "resource curse," where the wealth generated from these resources benefits a small elite, rather than the broader population. Regarding colonialism, it's crucial to acknowledge the historical context and the ongoing impact of colonialism on Africa. While it's true that many countries, including the United States, have experienced colonialism, the nature and extent of colonialism in Africa were particularly brutal and far-reaching. Colonial powers imposed artificial borders, extracted resources, and imposed systems of governance that undermined African autonomy and self-determination. The legacy of colonialism continues to shape Africa's economic, political, and social landscape. It's also important to note that many Africans have a strong sense of ownership and wealth, even if it's not always reflected in monetary terms. For example, owning 10 acres of land in Africa is a significant asset, regardless of its value in a different currency. In fact, many Africans own property and land, which provides them with a sense of security and stability. This is in contrast to many countries, such as the United States, where owning property is a privilege reserved for the few. According to a report by the US Census Bureau, in 2020, only about 67% of Americans owned their own homes. In contrast, many African countries have much higher rates of property ownership, with some estimates suggesting that up to 80% of Africans own their own homes or land. It's not accurate to say that Africans are "taking up space" or "using resources" in other countries. Many Africans migrate to other countries due to economic necessity, conflict, or persecution. They often contribute significantly to the economies and societies of their host countries. Regarding the issue of poverty and begging in Africa, it's essential to recognize that poverty is a complex and multifaceted issue. While it's true that some Africans engage in begging or scamming, this is not representative of the entire continent. In fact, many African countries are making significant progress in reducing poverty and improving living standards. However, the pace of progress is often hindered by external factors, such as climate change, global economic inequality, and the legacy of colonialism. Finally, regarding your question about whether I have returned home, I'd like to say that the decision to migrate or return home is a personal one, influenced by a range of factors, including economic opportunities, family ties, and personal safety. I hope this response has helped to provide a more nuanced understanding of Africa and its people. I'm happy to engage in further discussion and answer any questions you may have.
You sound uneducated you dont seem to understand the system of corporations. The US and some other Countries cannot grow without Immegants like Africans and Mexicans. Do you understand China the US the UAE and france are all in Africa taking the resources out at dirt cheap prices. You are uninformed @TheRenaissanceAmazon
Africa is super corrupt. Nepotism is alive. Leaders are idiots with no vision and no skills. The whole continent is a lost cause if you ask me. Hence you are men and women drowning at sea trying to reach Europe. Sad. Sad situation if you talk to young people in some countries. They have completely lost hope. In my country of origin, you will never get a job if you don't belong to the ruling party, and by job I mean a nursing job 😂. But even if you find that job they pay peanuts. A former schoolmate has 20 years teaching science after a 4 year degree. He makes less than usd100 month. My brother is college professor with a phd in law he makes about $300 a month. For context the teachers salary can buy him less 20kg or rice and thats all. Imagine working for 1kg if rice a day. And I wish I was exaggerating 😢
You are 100 percent correct. Its all a trick to make Africa weak BUT we now see what's going on and we are coming back. These other Countries need African people, and resources's.
We'll come back home and not only apply any knowledge acquired but also make sure some of these people feel our wrath
