Namecalling, the African Stereotype
Update: 2020-09-04
Description
It’s easy to come up with numerous instances of Western media portraying Africans in a negative light. And though these narratives shouldn’t influence how we as Africans perceive ourselves, they still do. The onus is not on the West to represent Africans as the nuanced and complex individuals we are, the responsibility is on us. So why are we unable to do so?
Today I am joined by Africommunications Group CEO, Mimi Kalinda, and guest co-host Hawa Berete to talk about the negative stereotypes Africans use against each other. We’ll discuss how these negative cultural narratives affect how we engage with each other, and how these issues can be linked to xenophobia on the continent.
