Talking about the immaturity of Africans is that a Racist account

The twentieth century has just died a few months ago. Nearly forty years after independence, we can give due to René Dumont when he said that Africa was a bad start in 60 years. Today, we are already in the XXI century and the future looks uncertain for the African youth who could be defined as a time bomb if there is no burst of pride on the part of African leaders, their balance sheets social, political and cultural being generally negative. After forty years of independence, African states (especially south of the Sahara) have shown to the world that they were mostly run by "illiterate" policies that have mortgaged the future of youth at the expense of selfishness. Why does Africa destroyed her youth, however, a few decades before independence, had proved to international opinion that could be counted on in the process of development of the continent? Africa was colonized, perhaps too soon. Forty years after independence, his youth fell into disarray. Its capacity for creativity and reasoning developed by the colonial and even post-colonial is just a sad memory. Today's youth is scary and it would even be entitled to ask whether the African political elite is aware of the precarious situation in which lies the continent. From 1960 to today, most African leaders were unable to implement what they learned from the great statesmen of the West. Instead, they cultivated tribalism and ethnicity to consolidate their power. For forty years, African political leaders have behaved in the village chief. There have been governments, institutions created in the image of modern countries but the continent's heads of state have not been serious in the exercise of their function as prisoners of their ethnicity. They could not sensitize the youth to create nations on the territories inherited from colonization. Given the failure of part of the African political elite, many young people are tempted by the developed countries. Those who are already there and have completed their education and training do not want to go home because of the savagery and animality who settled there.

NO it's not racist! It is a fact. But watch we must take sole responsibility for the Africans. As your only reference point in the history of the twentieth century refers to the 60. You forget the 70 and 80. Because I only have two complaints against Westerners. The first is to not have enough trained African leaders. The second is to have placed corruptible man totally at will to power and that in the sole interest of making a war on another continent than their own (cold war East vs West). Today it is the surcharges on all products from Africa destined for Western markets. But the biggest fault that we Africans. Because it is high time the African diaspora living in Western countries and having had an excellent education regardless of their profession believe in investing in Africa. Because the nerve of "war" is money. For we must do everything to eject any direct our corrupt
