Just stop blaming everyone. Africa was barbaric and got colonized because of outdated culture. But what now happens in Africa is a good example that the preferential way was a slow and peacefull transition from colonialism without demolition of existing institutions. Africa had enough time to build paradise in last decades and the only party to blame is completely uneducated people who fall for populist idiotic ideas.

The employee safety standards of the mines during operation were probably wanting too. and a few other things.
