It took China about fifty years.... Russia overcame western colonialism in twenty to becoeme part of the rivalry to western hegimony.... Russia is demostrating a go slow approach in Ukraine and advocating a careful aproach in Africa. With the break up of western hegimony it seems inevatable that Africa will gain it's independance.... Something that we have been dreaming about for hundreds of years.

@ah6121 Millions of people, hundreds of years.... The Chinese show that it can be done.... I beleive that the argument that you, we, need to make is that equity causes not only genral prosperity but MORE prosperity... I believe that if we step out with industrialization and creating capital that we are better off than saying equity alone... It seems as if there is an air of inevatabity that slowly regions in Africa will start to stand up... It is important that we represent our interests in a way that is palatable to the retoric of shall we say 'capitalism' ... A captialism [indsutrial capitalism] that the west has abandoned.

@akm824 China came out of a hudred years of shame by engaging in the economic activity of the world. It is the same way that Russia overcame it's desent into colonialism in the ninties.... Now that both contries are industrializing and the west is deindustrializing, who do you think west Africa can work with to get out of their more than two hundred years of shame?
