Anti-African Propaganda

The goal of capitalist propaganda is to instill within Africans everywhere a hatred for Africa and a love for anything European. Propaganda is carried out thorough newspapers, radio, television, films, and the educational system.

In the Americas -the occupied land of the Indians - a slave ship drops off in Florida and drops another African off in Jamaica - one picks cotton while the other cuts sugar cane. Both are victims of capitalism and both think they have more in common with the Europeans than with each other.

An African colonized by the French is led to believe they are French. An African colonized by the British is lead to believe they have more in common with the "Queen" than they do with their Africa sisters and brothers. This is confusion - confusion created and maintained by the enemy - capitalist imperialism. No oppressed person can have the same interest as their oppressor.. The imperialist's anti-African propaganda is aimed at achieving three things:

1) to make Africans think that the interest of the oppressed is the same as the interest of the oppressor - to create the unnatural conditions where Africans actually work against their own interest.

2) To keep Africans divided and disorganized. African people are more than 900 million strong and if organized the effects of Racism would be destroyed. Racism would be meaningless against an organized people. An example, are the Chinese - racist feeling towards them by the West are moot because there is a nothing the imperialists can do against 1 billion organized people.

3) To maintain control of the African continent with its vast resources which made capitalist development possible. The unity of all Africa people and a unified Africa will be the biggest blow to the maintenance of imperialist power in the world.
