Just because you're privileged to afford paying school feels for kids doesn't mean you should trash free education at the comfort of your keyboard. Quality education you cry of can only be attained with accessibility.Let everyone go to school and reforms for quality follow.

Hello Muloongo,

I am quite uneasy with your characterisation of, say, Northern and Muchinga provinces against, say, Southern, Western, Central and Eastern provinces of Zambia. I find your thinking, which was at the heart of colonial stereotypes about certain ethnic groups and places, as one that nurtures erasure and even fosters dehumanisation. Let me illustrate my point using your problematic examples.

First, your post presents Southern Province as inhabited by human beings. You depict these human beings as business-minded, wealthy, quiet and not noisy (as if other people elsewhere make noise when they have money!). The province is also presented as endowed with natural and attractive sites that are so well known that they carry the country’s “tourism economy.”

Second, your post presents Western Province as inhabited by human beings. You depict these human beings as people of a “Strong cultural identity” and “proud traditions”.

Third, your post presents Central Province as inhabited by human beings. You depict these human beings as people who are engaged in productive economic activities: farming, transport, mining, and logistics. You even added that the human beings in this province are so politically conscious that they help determine national electoral outcomes as they are a “swing province”.

Fourth, your post presents Eastern Province as being inhabited by human beings. You depict these human beings as “hardworking people” (as if to contrast them with the lazy lot elsewhere) who are engaged in “Agriculture” and are “quietly influential politically” (as if to evoke some contrast with others elsewhere who may be influential politically but in a noisy manner).

What emerges from this considered presentation is that these four provinces have PEOPLE who are doing something. They are either engaged in PRODUCTIVE economic activity, have a STRONG cultural IDENTITY, or are so POLITICALLY CONSCIOUS that they do not put up with politicians who fail to deliver. These are all very admirable human traits and qualities that should inspire us all.

Now, let us examine how you treat the other two provinces.

First, your post presents Northern Province as not inhabited by people. You depict the province as one that only has what nature gave it: “Rain, greenery, lakes, waterfalls and underrated natural beauty.” If this province has people, then they are unrecognised and passive (at least in your post). One is even left to wonder if the referenced natural beauty is underrated by the unrecognised inhabitants, or by the other provinces that have distinguishable people living in them, or by the outsiders including those who go to the province that carries Zambia’s tourism economy .

Second, your post presents Muchinga Province as not inhabited by people. You depict the province as one that only has “Mountains, scenery, adventure, [and] wilderness”. If this province has people, then they are unrecognised and passive (at least in your post). One is even left to wonder if the referenced “people [who are] forgetting how beautiful it [i.e. Muchinga Province] actually is” are the unrecognised inhabitants, or the inhabitants of other provinces that have distinguishable people living in them, or the outsiders including those who go to the province that carries Zambia’s tourism economy.

What emerges from this considered presentation is that Northern and Muchinga provinces have NO PEOPLE living in them. They only have natural vegetation. If the two provinces have people living in them, then they are not engaged in any known productive economic activities, have no known cultural identity, and have failed to do wonders with what nature has given them. These are all very bad human traits and qualities that should make the inhabitants of these provinces – assuming there are any – totally ashamed. No wonder they are unrecognizable – in your posts. No wonder you have erased or diminished their significance in relation to other groups – in your posts.

I do not know if you are doing this consciously or ignorantly. What I know is that this is how stereotypes are formed, perpetuated, and sustained. It would have been more helpful to develop clear criteria behind the characteristics you were hoping to feature and to then consistently apply said characteristics across the provinces. These characteristics could be people, nature or the environment, economic base, and the politics. As it stands, your depiction of the two provinces conjures up Western stereotypes about, say, Africa: as a pristine place without inhabitants and where people go to enjoy the natural wild. If there are people living there, they are invisible and not engaged in anything meaningful.

Anyway.
