The "Band Aid at 40" repeats the narrative of an Africa that needs star power and charity from rich youngsters to deal with poverty and hunger. Bob Geldof good intentions have done a lot of damage and perpetuate a pitiful view of the continent. #StopBandAid

"'Initiatives like Band Aid 40 perpetuate outdated narratives, reinforce racism and colonial attitudes that strip people of their dignity and agency,' @LenaBheeroo, @bondngo’s head of anti-racism and equity, said." https://t.co/PvYYRTeXfM #StopBandAid

Sign the petition to join @FuseODG and #StopBandAid: https://t.co/5wW7BNjfwT Ten years ago, @FuseODG declined Bob Geldof’s invitation to be part of his Band Aid - Do They Know It’s Christmas project. Today, he is calling for @BBC to stop the release of a documentary celebrating the “project that dehumanises Africans and destroys our pride and identity in the name of ‘charity’.”

Grammy-winning artist Fuse ODG is urging the BBC to stop the release of an upcoming documentary celebrating the 40th anniversary of #BandAid: “Band Aid and initiatives like it have cost the African continent trillions in lost revenue from stifling economic growth, invest, tourism, and more dangerously, destroying our collective dignity”
