Dear colleagues,

See below. An interesting short video, offering a strong vision on aid. Could be good for teaching, alongside Dambisa Moyo's 'Dead Aid', and perhaps drawing on the vision of Wakanda in the recent film Black Panther?  See what you think.

All the best,
Pat

I hope everyone is good. I just made a video for the BBC outlining the utopia of what Pan-Africanism looks like in practice (I was very surprised when I pitched this they picked it up! Seems like tis the season). The aim is to re-engage with radical thinking about what the future could look like, without the interference of the West:
