What does it mean to be 'Proudly African'?
For me being proudly African is to share a common heritage with some great Africans such as
JRR Tolkien
Legendary Hugh Masekela

The late great Nelson 'Madiba' Mandela

There are many many more brothers and sisters which make this continent great.... too many to mention
Thanks for reading ..... I look forward to seeing your African greats below in the comments....
MLK did a lot to bring equality and humanity "o'er the mountain"
Correct .... I did a blog around the man and his contribution some time back ....

There are some really popular and legendary people from Africa I didn't knew.
Never mentioned, that JRR Tolkien is an African.
Although I'm a very huge Hobbit /LOTR Fan^^
Thanks!
I agree with your list. We have produced some great personalities. We have also introduced the world to new music, our own Ladysmith Black Mambaso,
Yup... I was listening to the Paul Simon album this morning ... Diamonds on the Soles of my Feet ... a tremendous song.
