Your economic or educational
gains regardless, as long as you’re black - I mean dark, you're vulnerable to
colourism in Northern Africa. For the record, I'm not saying every North
African is a nutcase like that, because even in the desert you'll find an oasis.
What I mean is, the recent
footage of migrants being sold off as slaves in Libyan 'slave markets' is
perhaps fresh and so it sparks outrage, but it's a manifestation of realities
from 19 o'long. Gaddafi used many of our brothers as mercenaries.
If you ask me, ours is a
clusterfuck of a continent where equality is just a pretext in speeches - as
elusive as the U in AU, and as the C in ECOWAS.
