Introduction

"There is a great Africa. There is an
Africa that is beautiful, colorful and 
full of hope for a great future
That Africa is my generation."
Welcome to my blogg. For a those of you who may not know me I am what you may called a Neo-African fundamentalist. I have often been described as eccentric, radical and to some even mad. Then again how many "normal people" move and shake the world? My aim here is to discuss issues that affect Africans as a whole. We have to all admit that Africa is a far cry from the glory that we (the indigenous) want it to be. 


There are several attributes that come to light when I look at Africans in general. These attributes are the direct result of our own doing as a people. And sadly, most of them are negative. Attributes that have been handed down from generation to generation. Not only are they a burden to those that possess these attributes but they are also the reason why Africa does not shine in the eyes of the international community. 


A lot of the negatives and positives will be expressed here in a similar way our ancestors kept our traditions. Through story telling. The issues that will be highlighted will be very closely related to the daily givings and takings that surround the people in my Zambian community. 

Hopefully with this voice I can hit a nerve in all my readers, perhaps shock, and perhaps awe.
