United States of Africa
With so much controversy surrounding the British commemoration the 200th anniversary of the 1807 Abolition of the Slave Trade Act, it’s nice to read about the progressive strides African countries are making.
Forty-four years after Ghana’s first president Kwame Nkrumah called for a United States of Africa at the founding conference of the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) in Addis Ababa, this summer African leaders will once again debate the issue.
“The people of Africa call for the breaking down of the boundaries that keep them apart. They demand an end to the border disputes between sister African states – disputes that arise out of the artificial barriers raised by colonialism. It was colonialism’s purpose that divided us. It was colonialism’s purpose that left us with our border irredentism that rejected our ethnic and cultural fusion.” - Kwame Nkrumah
The entire story and article is a good read. What do you think about the hope for Africa lying in a united continent?
