Oz recently tagged me on Why I Blog About Africa.
Because I am African
I blog about Africa because I am African, because I have lived in Africa most of my life, because most of my family live in Africa, and because there is no other place that has contributed to my formation as much as Africa – at least so far. It is only logical that if I want to blog about a place – or collection of places – and I want to restrict myself to issues that I understand, I would have to blog about Africa. I also know much more about Africa because my research largely concerns two African countries.
Because I get angry…
I suppose I could write something very poetic, something about how much I love the continent, about how there is so much potential, about how the continent throbs with so much energy. But the reasons are more down to earth: I blog about Africa because I get disgusted by actions of leaders of African countries, and by assumptions and assertions about African countries by both Africans and non-Africans.
Ok hmmm let me see …. why am I writing lol – let my put something on my blog about this …

I blog about Africa because Pamela Wilson’s book does not include a chapter on Africa! Thanks for the comments you left on my blog: very very brilliant and insightful. Says better some of the things I was trying to say. We should explore further some of your comments: my hands are full now…but won’t they always be?

Ah, at the end of the day aren’t most ‘African ‘ bloggers angry?
Nice. I am still struggling with my meme on this topic, but hopefully will have it up this week.
Take care, Loomnie and Happy new year
