Great post this. Hit the nail right on the head. But as writers it is out duty to paint this that normalcy cannnot pain. Yes sometimes it may get out of hand but we are fallible mistakes. I am especially against the culture of painting Africa black on a regular basis but if something needs pointing out...it must be done.
However Africa is a richly bright continent and no amount of ignominity will change that.
Thanks for pointing it out tho.
