🌍 Africa's Economic Surge: A Beacon of Hope in 2024! 📷 According to the latest report from the African Development Bank, Africa is not just growing; it's thriving, outpacing the global average with its dynamism and resilience. This year, eleven African nations are not merely on the list but dominating the world's top 20 fastest-growing economies. Leading the charge is Niger, with an astonishing projected growth rate of 11.2%. Following closely are Senegal and Libya, with growth rates of 8.2% and 7.9%, respectively. These figures aren't just numbers; they're a a sign of Africa's strategic diversification away from traditional commodities and towards a robust, multifaceted economic structure. From Rwanda's tech-driven growth to Ethiopia's infrastructural leaps, the continent's rise is powered by innovation, strategic investments, and an increasing drive towards economic diversification. This surge is setting a global benchmark, highlighting Africa's potential as a powerhouse in the making. (more context in comments!)

Not in Africa our birth rates are SOARING

Uhm no it seems you didn't get it straight. YOU sat through 50 hours of content and YOU said there is no racism. Your experience is relevant to YOU and anyone who agrees with YOU. Now to try and use that to determine and absolute about a man that factually said the things he said is totally disingenous. You see there are some things that context doesn't ameliorate. If a man says if he saw a black pilot he wouldn't want to fly and would assume they are DEI hires. There is NO context that makes that un racist. If a man says THREE high ranking black women do not have brain processing power and stole their roles from white people, there is NO context that makes that un racist. If a man in a video I watched said a place was unsafe when a black person walked by him, I do not know how context makes that video not racist. In fact I watched the full context of all of these and its even worse when in context because the guy actually doubled down on his beliefs and tried to justify why he felt black people shouldn't be in those positions. The man actually tried to argue why DEI made seeing any black person in a position of power questionable when the statistics show the biggest recipeients of DEI hires BY MILES are WHITE WOMEN! It's not even close. A man who spends all his time using stats to attack people would know this yet totally ignores it when going after black people for DEI. It is the DEFINITION of racismdsa Regardless, the issue people like you have is that you treat blackness as a monolith. As if you can speak for an entire group of people. Your opinion is yours and to be honest it means absolutely nothing to me and millions of other black people. It is most valuable to white people who need a black voice to validate their attempt at sanitising a man that lived his life in divise hatred and was killed by a member of the one group he spent his entire time defending. White men.

So let me get this straight… If a Black man sits through 50+ hours of content and says there’s no racism, his experience is irrelevant… but when Democrats clip 15 seconds out of context, that’s suddenly the gospel truth? The problem isn’t that I’m ethically Black with an opinion… it’s that my opinion destroys your narrative. #AStoneGroove”

I’ve sat through over 50 hours of Charlie Kirk’s videos as an ethnically Black American. Not one racist word. Not 1. What Democrats do is cut snippets, strip context, and shove sound bites at the same gullible slob audience too lazy to fact-check. That isn’t exposing racism .. it’s manufacturing lies to spark division.

When anyone makes a comment that includes ‘as a black person’ or ‘I am black but’ you know they are about to pander. The opinion of one black person does not represent that of all of them. In fact some of the most anti black racist I’ve ever met were black so there it is

So a ton of right wing folks are posting this split image and talking about a turning point. Can someone explain how these two totally unrelated murders are connected other than Charlie Kirk and this Ukraine woman were both white?

@stepfanie Uhm how exactly are these two totally unrelated cases connected or is it because they are both white? I mean to do this propaganda when a man’s body isn’t even cold is crazy

what we do next is very important

How are we supposed to feel about this Charlie Kirk situation?

A viral story claims Bill Gates is trying out an 8 year contraceptive in Africa with Kenyan women and now the Namibian president has vetoed it. However we are now getting told it is fake news. I discuss how we should be looking at this story

The biggest problem black and African people have is that they believe they need to convince people like this woman what should and should not be taught about American history and it's relationship with black people. Why are you even worrying about what a white museum does or does not put in their exhibit? TEACH YOUR OWN PEOPLE THE TRUTH AS THEY TEACH THEIRS LIES SIMPLE!

Why aren’t wealthy Africans stepping up to support independent Pan African media creators and channels like African Stream? The real issue may be a deep-seated fear of repercussions and the psychological impact of past portrayals of Africa. #Africa #africanhistory #african

@elonmusk you all know NONE of this matters. If it did more than half the country wouldn't have voted for him. MANY of them white women so this is all a distraction for no reason other than to take your attention off the things that matter now to everyone

If there was a United States Of Africa where should the capital be?

Is the Elon vs Trump feud a distraction or should you care?
