I am African, well I'm Namibian which is in Africa, so I guess I can call myself African. I was born in Namibia, my parents were born in Namibia and even my grand parents were born in Namibia. I have traveled to several countries in Africa and have done allot of research on the ones I have not visited and I think I have a pretty clear idea of how it is. I have always gotten very irritated with the ignorance of some people and would like to tell at least a small part of the world about the real Africa. Media has been a real disaster when it comes to Africa, as they only show the arid deserts, people starving and animals everywhere. If you have ever been decieved by these misconceptions, blame the media.
