Download or read book A short note on Africa for kids written by Stephen Ekokobe Awung and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A short note on Africa for kids is a text intended to give a brief and objective information about the history and society of Africa to kids living in the West. The idea to write this piece came from the false information about Africa that I usually get from my 7 years old daughter like the assertion that Africans live with wild animals like a lion at home. We know that international aid agencies and developmental organisations use (put) emotional pictures on public boards like half-naked African kids looking for food in public waste containers in order to attract donations. While such pictures might be real, it does not give an objective image of Africa. I believe this situation has contributed to the negative and false impression of Africa, not only for kids but some adult too. The sole task of this booklet is to give a true picture of Africa to our kids. Parents are advised to read this note with their kids. If we as African parents do not correct this misconception of Africa to our kids, they will believe the lies told on the streets and some times by the Western media. Africa is a beautiful continent despite poverty, socio-economic and political unrest facing the continent today. The rich natural and human resources make Africa a potentially rich continent.
Download or read book How to Write About Africa written by Binyavanga Wainaina and published by One World. This book was released on 2023-06-06 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of Africa’s most influential and eloquent essayists, a posthumous collection that highlights his biting satire and subversive wisdom on topics from travel to cultural identity to sexuality “A fierce literary talent . . . [Wainaina] shines a light on his continent without cliché.”—The Guardian “Africa is the only continent you can love—take advantage of this. . . . Africa is to be pitied, worshipped, or dominated. Whichever angle you take, be sure to leave the strong impression that without your intervention and your important book, Africa is doomed.” Binyavanga Wainaina was a pioneering voice in African literature, an award-winning memoirist and essayist remembered as one of the greatest chroniclers of contemporary African life. This groundbreaking collection brings together, for the first time, Wainaina’s pioneering writing on the African continent, including many of his most critically acclaimed pieces, such as the viral satirical sensation “How to Write About Africa.” Working fearlessly across a range of topics—from politics to international aid, cultural heritage, and redefined sexuality—he describes the modern world with sensual, emotional, and psychological detail, giving us a full-color view of his home country and continent. These works present the portrait of a giant in African literature who left a tremendous legacy.
