@africa.aware: Dr Khanyisile Litchfield Tshabalala explains why many African countries remain trapped in debt. She says Africa does not fully control its minerals, does not set the prices of its resources and exports raw materials only to buy them back at high costs after they have been refined abroad. She shared these views on the ALFA House Podcast where she argued that Africa is made to pay heavily for resources it already owns, while Western nations continue to benefit from the continent’s wealth. Dr Litchfield Tshabalala also raises the question of reparations, saying that the West owes Africa far more than Africa owes the West. #africa #decolonization #panafrican #BlackHistory #black
