You can have an African live in any part of the world, but you cannot take Africa from within an African. Regardless of how successful we are, Africa is our continent of birth, our source, root, identity, and pride. Development of Africa must be priority for Africans everywhere.

"The permitting process and the resulting lack of access to Indigenous foods is rooted in the colonial practice of separating Indigenous people from their food, but it is not irreparable," writes Jayden Lim for @GlobalAgDev. https://t.co/TT0kdLErYO
