Hey everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving break and ate lots of good food, hopefully some of it was African and spicy. This week we will be exploring the political structures and conflicts within African countries. As we all know Africa itself is a collection of very different countries which in turn are a collection of very very different towns, cities, villages, cultures, religions, and languages! With so many differences, conflict is sure to arise, but it is necessary for us to explore these differences and try to find the similarities that can help us unite. In the words of Nelson Mandela 'I dream of an Africa which is in peace with itself."
