South Africa and the Anglo-American Corporation: Africa’s Liberation from the Rhodes’ Legacy is Now
Today’s Africa is seeing a re-emergence of a robust Pan-Africanism, and break from imperialism unseen in the last several centuries.
What is the nature of those imperial structures which have kept the “dark continent” trapped in dark age conditions for over 120 years and how did the British-imperial nest around Cecil Rhodes set the stage for the worst atrocities of Africa’s history since the second Boer War?
How has the multipolar alliance changed the rules of the zero sum game that has kept Africa exploited and how can the age of empire finally come to an end?

Wow! What a dynamite presentation. Thank you! Fascinating how she connects the greed of the mining conglomerates with the greed of big pharma in their flagrant exploitation of the "HIV/AIDS" myth that appeared at an opportune time. And so many more valuable insights.
