How Africa and Black People Can Develop Africa:

Africans gather resources in Africa then hand them over to outsiders to make products because Africans barely created factories for anything. Africans produce cocoa for chocolates but the chocolate is made and enjoyed outside of Africa because don’t make the products. Cheap chocolate is a luxury in Africa but the ingredients are in Africa. Many of the resources for technology and infrastructure are from Africa but Africa has the least technology and infrastructure. Africa has the resources but poverty is all over the place.

Instead of giving resources to be processed in China, Europe and other places, Africans should start making products and selling them. Africans should create businesses and not only be workers. Africans need to start building, Africa is underdeveloped compared to even Asia and Latin America.

Africans work hard but for success you also need to work smart. Smart work is intellectual e.g. building businesses, engineering, scientific research unlike low skilled labour which doesn’t require much knowledge e.g. brick laying, cleaning.

Black ownership of businesses, land and institutions will be required for the empowerment of Black people. It will also reduce racism by being less reliant on other races. Black people shouldn’t always have to depend on other races for jobs and services.

Africans and Black People everywhere should start solving their own problems instead of only running to white people and other non-Blacks for better lives. You can’t blame colonisation for not building roads, schools, stable electricity, water supply systems etc.

Africans need to get involved in the production of the things they use and in inventing solutions to the world’s problems.

Here’s a picture of parts of the world at night. See how dim Africa is despite having almost 25% of the world’s population.

South Africa has been getting poorer. You can see in this chart that from 2000 to 2023, prices are 3.5x higher (inflation of 250%) but the GDP per capita only rose by 20%.

The Growth Trajectory: South Africa experienced a strong commodities-driven upward trend through the mid-2000s, peaking around 2008–2013. Since then, structural headwinds—including severe electricity constraints (load shedding) and logistical inefficiencies—have caused real GDP per capita to stagnate or slide backwards.

The 2020 Shocks: A notable drop-off can be observed in 2020 due to global pandemic disruptions, followed by a minor statistical rebound.
