Much pity is directed by people of the West toward the huge continent of Africa.
After ten centuries of a slave trade perpetrated by Middle Eastern and European powers, as well as tribal warfare followed by colonialism -- poverty and a general failure to thrive are not entirely surprising.
"Leaders" of poor quality have also been very much responsible.
But Africa is changing. From different nations, new leaders want a new standard and are working to grow a different story. Fred Swaniker is one of them. His TED Talk from 2014 is below. The organization he started is still running in 2022.
