Like halfway through "how Europe underdeveloped Africa" cause I decided I'd read/listen to it after I had a strong base on knowledge on African history and just holy fuck is he right about nearly everything so far.

Having learned about how extensive African trade was prior to the 18th century and how heavily most African kingdoms shifted in the 16th it's very clear that what he points out in the way the slave trade and the need to aquire firearms grew the European economies while near completely emptying out African economies and how the hard shift to European import goods after Europe had grow through the use of African slave labor and monopoly of trade routes is still a largely still at play in the era of neocolonialism.

The way that Walter Rodney not just points out that this is true, but the depth to which he covers a variety of African kingdoms, their economies, and cultural practices puts even some college level courses to shame while also showcasing the exact ways in which some of these stronger or more expansive kingdoms like the Ashanti, oyo, borno, Kongo, and Benin kingdoms had explicitly tried everything to get guns through any other trade and how the Ashanti, merina, Ethiopian, Burundi Benin kingdoms sought our education and scholars to begin industrialization and the systematic way in which Europeans and Americans prevented that is just, well it's damming.

It's a continuing reminder how from the first stage of European expansion and control they had precisely zero good intentions for the peoples of Africa. That Europe saw Africa as nothing more than a way to grow itself, it's institutions and improve its economies by depriving Africa of labor, materials and freedom which is true to this day, most starkly in the Congo but true across the whole region.

But while the book shows the crimes of Europeans without sugar coating, it also doesn't glorify the African leaders and more importantly those that became collaborative with European despitism. It also does not abide by the word games the European powers like to play and goes in depth to the way Europeans had no actual interest in ending slavery, and that while invading the various kingdoms and communities to "end slavery" the created some of the most brutal slave conditions on this side of the globe, not just in Leopolds Congo but in French forced labor camps and British controlled regions, with the Portuguese being particularly up front about it.

Truly a shame that like most other black radicals Rodney was murdered so young. The rarity to which black radicals even get to 40 shows how desperately capitalist and white supremist try to prevent even the slightest push back from black voices. It also makes clear how much we all need to know this stuff, from debois's black reconstruction to nkrumah's neoimperialism these books give a great understanding of the past and the precise way in which we arrived to the current situation.

I pray that with the new scramble for Africa that is unfolding in front of our very faces, the genocides in the Congo, and Sudan, and the way in which these interlock with the genocide of Palestinians, that we all take the time to properly read and reflect so that we may properly organize and fight back for a fully free and sovereign Africa and Palestine and a world free from white supremacy.

Walter Rodney (1942–1980) was a prominent Guyanese historian, political activist, and scholar whose work and activism significantly influenced Pan-Africanism and anti-colonial struggles in the 20th century.

Rodney earned his PhD in African history from the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) in London in 1966, with a focus on African resistance to European colonization. His landmark book, How Europe Underdeveloped Africa (1972), became a seminal text in Pan-African studies, critiquing the exploitative relationship between Europe and Africa and exposing the ways in which colonialism stunted Africa's development.

A committed Marxist and Pan-Africanist, Rodney believed in the liberation of all oppressed peoples and was deeply engaged with grassroots movements. He travelled extensively, including in Tanzania, where he taught at the University of Dar es Salaam and advocated for African socialism and self-reliance.

Rodney’s activism often puts him at odds with political elites. In 1968, he was banned from Jamaica after criticizing the government and the capitalist structures that perpetuated inequality. This led to the famous “Rodney Riots,” as his followers protested his expulsion, sparking broader conversations about social justice.

In his native Guyana, Rodney co-founded the Working People's Alliance (WPA) to challenge the authoritarian rule of Forbes Burnham. His outspoken opposition to oppression and his advocacy for the working class made him a target of state repression. On June 13, 1980, Rodney was assassinated in Georgetown, Guyana, under circumstances widely believed to involve state security forces.

Rodney’s life and work continue to inspire Pan-Africanists, social justice advocates, and scholars worldwide. His legacy is one of unwavering dedication to the struggle against imperialism, racism, and inequality. 🇬🇾

Riace, Calabria, Italy

Riace: The Italian village abandoned by locals, adopted by migrants

The hilltop medieval village of Riace on Italy's south coast was almost a ghost town 15 years ago. Houses were derelict and the local school was near to closing.

The village was in danger of becoming extinct as residents disappeared to northern Italy, and abroad, for jobs during the economic boom.

Since then Riace has seen a change in its destiny, by openly welcoming a controlled number of migrants, who live and work as part of the community.

This transformation was instigated by the mayor, Domenico Lucano, who set up a scheme, funded by the Italian government, to offer refugees the abandoned apartments and training. It has helped to rebuild both the town's population and economy.

"I do nothing more than what I think is right for our little community," says Lucano, who started the pioneering programme in 1998.

"The multiculturalism, the variety of skills and personal stories which people have brought to Riace have revolutionised what was becoming a ghost town.

"There were people without a house here, and there were houses without people here. It's simple."

Sanaa : Oh yes, a lot of advantages I will tell you 3 of them.

Firstly, compared to Europeans, I can wear my hair wavy, curly or straight.

Secondly, I represent the future and therefore that makes me Interesting.

Thirdly, crossbreeding strengthens and makes people more beautiful and healthy.

Mixed mag : 9. What makes being multiracial a beautiful thing ?

Sanaa : It is a beautiful thing because you are the future, harmony and tolerance, you have no hatred in your body, you are the symbol of love.

You are the fruit of anti-rascism, living proof that anti-rascism and interracialism produce healthy, happy and open-minded people.

We are the opposite of frigidity, we are not stuck.

Unlike English Europeans we have rhythm in our skin and for the fetishists our feet are prettier and spicy. (naughty smile)

Mixed mag : 10. Any advice to someone who struggles with their multiracial identity ?

Sanaa : Embrace it! Because secretly the ones who poke fun at you about it, are probably secretly jealous that they can't be different and beautiful like you :)

Do not hesitate to cross-breed to move Eurafrika forward more quickly and create this society.

Eurafrika is the future.

I will add in conclusion that we are the future so accept it, you are the beauty, health and future of Eurafrika.

Mixed mag : Thanks Sanaa for this Interview.

Oh, how I wish Israel existed in the 30s.

We could have evacuated Jews from Europe the day before the Kristalnacht then, too.

Whenever Brits are like "tea is our national drink, our culture, our personality, our mental health" I think of our hill country blanketed in a patchwork quilt of human suffering and ongoing violent colonialism and want to smash all their tea cups. Your genocidal leaf juice is nothing to be proud of. The present day tea pluckers are the descendants of the Indians you enslaved and they still live in unthinkable poverty in the line houses you built to house them like cattle. The families whose farmlands you robbed have been starving for generations. Every sip of your leaf juice is soaked in blood and you drink it like vampires.

Tea will never belong to you. It's our legacy of grief, and your shame.

Drink your tea and shut the fuck up.

Onesimus, Sweden.

Born Nesib in Nekemte, Ethiopia, and sold as a slave at age 4. One decade later, in 1870, a French vice consul bought Nesib’s freedom and left him in Sweden. Two years later he was baptized Onesimus. From 1876-81, he studied theology in Sweden.

He returned to Nekemte as a missionary in 1904 and lived there as a pastor until his death in 1931, aged 75.
