Pharaohs of Egypt, the Roman Empire, The Mongols, Sunjatta and the Mandinkas with their missionaries (Mori), traders (Julas) and their mercenary fighters (Nyanchos) or the European colonialist with their missionaries, buccaneers and Redcoats, or the modern Americans with "democracy and freedom" in one hand and "our resolve to jealously guard our interest" in the other. The question, is modern Africa today any different from any other society except for where it is on the growth curve?

These are provocative topics!Was it good or bad thing to happen to Africa? In hindsight are you ok it happened or wished it has never? What in your view we (African) would look like today for instance in terms of education, religion, etc. without colonist and trade.To be honest I have mixed feelings. Partly I hated subjugation but on the other hand am glad to be the person I am today. The reason being am Not sure if that will be possible without colonialism/trade.Also at times of my deepest frustration over how we came to treat one and another in the name of self government/determination I something's wish we remain colonize and/or further than it was. I maybe wrong but I tend to believe we might have better opportunities than we did up to this point in time.What's your take in these topics?RegardsBurama¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://listserv.icors.org/archives/gambia-l.htmlTo Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: http://listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?S1=gambia-l To contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to: [log in to unmask]');" target="_blank">[log in to unmask] ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
