"Those who come with wheat, millet, corn or milk, they are not helping us. Those who really want to help us can give us ploughs, tractors, fertilizers, insecticides, watering cans, drills and dams. That is how we would define food aid." - Thomas Sankara’s take on Western “aid”

This is an area of history I'm definitely lacking knowledge in. Do you have any book recs?

From Russia with love

Maproso :

While I completely agree with you I just would love to nuance the fact that a lot of this was propaganda to get more people on their sides. Racial inequality was still very much a thing. But yeah it’s a comforting thought, I get you
