What
is an African Renaissance? |
|
You have dedicated your site
to making the African Renaissance a reality,
and yet you give no definition of what you
believe an African renaissance is? I came
to your web site thinking that this was going
to be explained, but went away disappointed
when I didn't find any wholesome definition
of the term by you.

Pitfalls
of a doctor in Africa |
|
I work in a mission hospital
in a village in Kamoto, in the eastern province
of Zambia. In your article "I defend
Thabo Mbeki", you give little insight
of the fact that, even if poverty is an issue,
the poor do survive. We get many cases here
of people who have ailing health which would
not be the case if they could eat better foods.
The saying "an apple a day keeps the
doctor away" applies to this case. Without
poverty, the situation would be much better,
but we are faced with this reality which we
have to make the best of. Getting rid of poverty
is a long process, and it would be wrong to
concentrate on this only and forget that these
people can still be helped when they have
disease.

An
African revolution is inevitable |
|
I am not happy about the present
situation in many African countries. I cannot
understand how so many people cannot see how
wrong it is. We need to get rid of the colonial
heritage in all its forms, before it is too
late. Sometime ago I read an article in an
African magazine which warned that a revolution,
the magnitudes of which this world has never
seen before, is unavoidable in Africa. I do
believe this. I recognize that this eventuality
is gathering pace through the similar kind
of tribal wars that take place in many countries,
and the kind of articles that Africans are
posting today, through the growth of the number
of people who have views like you, Mr. Vunda.
Stay strong and keep up the good work. Africa
is our home, after
all.
