The first link is the most signifigant:
"Why do you keep posting this stuff? Nobody cares about Africa, anyway..."
Clive, Cincinatus's Wife, blam, myself, and a few others get asked that occasionally- we are among the keepers of the "AfricaWatch" columns, and we continue to post articles about what I believe will prove to be one of the great, tragic stories of the new century.
The truth is archived here on Free Republic, and I maintain that one day, when things over there are too awful to be ignored any longer, those who have eyes to see will read the stories here, and be appalled at the silence.
That is all...

Mandela is NOT that great of a statesman; he's just a lot smoother than some of the other African thugs. How well has South Africa been doing under his tenure?

Prayers and Blessings for Kathy Martin.
I met a foreign student from Harare recently, and talked to him about Zimbabwean politics. From what I gathered, the nation is potentially very rich, but it is in desperate need of good management.

Africa is an open sore on the face of the earth. It's problems can ultimately only be solved by Africans. It serve a horrible purpose right now as a warning to the rest of the world about tribalism and superstition.
Africans are as bright as any people on earth. The information they need for a prosperous and productive future is right in front of them. Their fate so far has been to be led by people who play on their ancestral beliefs of tribe and totem, less so lately the latter but tribalism is still strong and will serve to divide them for as long as it can serve the tactical purposes of kleptocrats.

Sean is a supporter of Morgan Tsvangirais MDC; hes for change
we all are. We were away when it happened; Sean was on the farm alone when he was attacked by a group of ten Zanu PF youth militia. He was severely beaten with a fanbelt from a car and then chains. When he told me over the phone, my immediate concern was whether or not hed hit back. Because if he had, they would arrest him and have him thrown in jail for assault. Thankfully, he found the control to keep his hands down all the time. Good heavens.

The war against whites that has been raging in Zimbabwe for the past few years highlights the hypocritical racism of black leaders in the U. S. Where is the outrage at the treatment of whites by blacks in Africa?
BTW, the only places on Earth where slavery is still alive is in certain African nations.
