I think we must eventually find a common way of saying this. Us as South Africans can say "As an Afrikan living in South Afrika...." and you can say "As an Afrikan living in Tanzania...." because at the end of the day we're all Afrikans and naturally we will be proud of each other's accomplishments. I love your country by the way and I was blessed to be trained by your people in a place called Mgagao during our exile years. Some of the kindest Afrikans I have ever come across and Mwalimu was an exceptional leader, kiongozi. Tunashukuri sana.

but isnt the IMPERILISTS just taking over the AFRICAN FILM INDUSTRY in order to CONTROL IT the same way they have CONTROLLED BLACK TALENT in America? WHY doesnt Africa CREATE ist own PARAMOUNT PICTURES and enlist BLACK TALENT in it to develop a FUTURE FILM INDUSTRY thatis TRULY African? These actos are busy PAYING OUT COLONIALIST narratives!...sp there is very little that is AFRICAN about all this, its just an IMPERIALISTIC TAKE OVER of the AFRICAN TALENT-Creative, Sports, Academia, everything and ENSURING the FUTURE of their own CHILDREN on the BACKS of IGNORANT BLACK AFRICA as they did to the AMERICAN BLACK...Japanese Chinese Indians etc ALL THRIVE AND MAKE IT BIG as THEIR OWN people but BLACKS are FULLY OWNED by the WHITE imperialists both in AMerica and now in AFRICA-thats the sad story of Africa
