Chief Ed Fox on black Americans, China, Africa

[aitan844]

its time to bring this out into the open .. all those who watch my pages crying i dont like them need to go and find a brain and use it .. when someone like this comes to the table with INFORMATION rather than conjecture you have to sit up, this is what i am talking about, i dont want to read otherwise.

[TheTrinketGirl]

@aitan844 Be kind. The teacher is willing to teach without cruelty, enlightening those who are willing to listen. I am one who is willing to listen. Thank you for sharing.

[aitan844]

@TheTrinketGirl i have had this on my computer for two yrs, and i dont let it out , there are others like this who are balanced, considered , and come with fact not emotional baggage.. look at the hits, its just sad...

[GingerBronze]

Wish I could have heard the WHOLE interview. I was starting to get into it. Good stuff.

[aitan844]

@GingerBronze you might be able to find it am sure there is a library record somewhere on the net.. its a pity that these type of speakers are drowned out by the hysteria and misinformation that has now become NORMAL amongst black americans  who are being led by lies and skewered news items about africa

[GingerBronze]

@aitan844 - I don't trust western news reports about AfRAka or other Blacks---PERIOD. They are skewed and slanted to make Blacks appear backward, stupid, unbridled and a scourge upon humanity. I challenge that ILLUSION because ANY strife in AfRAka or among Black nations in the Diaspora was caused by those who invaded, colonized and enslaved PEACEFUL peoples. I see the BEAUTY in global AfRAkans and recognize our SPIRIT upon which our moral integrity is based. AfRAkans UNITE!

[Lisciousw]

Hello, everyone. I would love to know how to contact Chief Ed Fox. Does anyone have contact information?  I would appreciate it.

[commonman80]

We don't only need the silver and gold, we also need the Technology. Technology is worth far more than Silver and gold. I so often see Brilliant minds in the African American community working for "White" owned companies being held back from their full potential. They work and toil in JOBS, not careers, for just enough to grasp the basics of the American dream. While their less intelligent "White" counterparts move ahead of them. We must understand Knowledge is power. Not just silver and gold..

[Loudensll]

Dam straight someone needs to get this kind of information out. Too everyone. Aljezeera get with it, great news

[aitan844]

@Loudensll this speaker just happens to be well informed and level headed about the subject matter .. its not news this vid has been on my liked vids for at least 2yrs however it is a message that doesnt have many takers .

[overviewthem]

This is absolutely factual. I concur with the points that came out of this discussion.

[JazzyZenBrotha]

This is a very good educational and informative video. I'm glad Chief Ed Fox shares his international knowledge. It clears up a LOT of things for me.

[santoshlimbuthebe]

truely amazing ......now its time for silver and gold..

[ASKIAOTA]

I love china Japan korea vietnam cambodia I much respect.

[RUFULLOFSHIT]

Beware Asian American people or the Banana Chinese, America migth restate the anti chinese exclusion act again; Rocky Spring or Clove Portland. MOVE YOUR MONEY OUT OF AMERICA!!! The American dont like you being here!!!!

[RUFULLOFSHIT]

He should on opera show n tell the american about this...

[midimoon]

it is because western countries are afraid of China becomes stronger and bigger. so whenever they can not slove the problem ,they will put blame on china and chinese ppl.

[TheNagaSupremacy]

@midimoon..Fact. 

[eriblood]

Isaias Afwerki, the president of Eritrea knows exactly how those Western nations operate in Africa and that's why he kicked most of them out of the country. China is a good nation which Africans could do business with. Fuck the NWO!!

[afrikanbadboy]

@eriblood chinese still are rats an i dont want anyone to enter africa period i only want africans to kill jews then afrifcan will have peace chinese fuckin eat rats litteraly they wana take over afica includin india fuck them all

[paulsviplist]

Good job on the video. I gave 5 stars.

So do you know who ownes Fox and Fox News?

[desirejoseph26]

we know that no one is an angel,all political economic partners of Africa come with an agenda to make profits and control of africa.

[sherry20072007]

I believe the sentence of ---'we need more than just symbolic. we need a sample, we need a goal.' will just keep echoing in our minds. We can see that Mr. fox does put a lot of thoughts in it.

[sherry20072007]

Thanks for the brilliant speech from Mr. Fox. Sadly even based on today's highly-speeding development of mass media and publication, there were, are and still will be somewhat misunderstandings and pre-judgemental perspectives towards those developing countries, with China a ruthless target as always. The Tebet issue, the apparent-lack-of-sufficient-at­tention-of-human-rights etc. I am pleased to see more and more foreigners get to know a real china, and help constructing this lovely country.

[SuperJohnsonlee]

Mr. Fox stayed in China for many years. Most of his time are in China, I believe that no one else will know more about China's development than he.He truly understand the facts and what is really going on now and he let us more about China and the US and Africa.

[SuperJohnsonlee]

When the Chinese people are not wealthy circumstances, efforts to help African countries to build factories, farms, water conservancy, energy, transportation, telecommunications and culture, education and health for various economic and social infrastructure, were the people of Africa as the "Freedom Road" Tanzania-Zambia Railway is the largest non-project aid

[mavinga]

This reactionary logic paralyzes logical political thinking...It consigns China to a place of virtue and the West to a place of vice, when the concentration should be on critiquing and criticizing African leaders.

Yet they are praising China as if China will be the key to African progress or the West will be the key to African underdevelopment.

The West is no worst then China, China is no better then the West, actually, at least we seen the West at its worse..but China still acquiring power

[mavinga]

this victim mentality needs to stop...juxtaposing Chinese PR image of today with the West's negative activities of yesterday and then concluding with saying that China is a friend of Africa. This is so lacking of self-dignity. If we want to get into the lowly rhetoric of victimization politics, well China colonized Tibet and Turkish lands, and are spread Han-supremacy to these parts. But that is besides the point..

[shootthedevil]

@mavinga Tibet had relationship with China long before America. Turisk originate in Turkey, in the the middle east, their land is not in China. They are a foreign people who migrate there. That is why turkist are spread out. Beijing is closer than Istanbul.

[TheMambavenom]

European slave labour is rife. Many educated Africans are working and living in appalling conditions here in Europe

[TheMambavenom]

Paciku well said!

[paciku]

75% of infrastruture in Africa is built by China.The west is there to support dictators and wars .Congo as an exemple.

[aitan844]

@paciku ? where do you get your statistics out off .,. a hat.. ? wow!

[uoxleonard]

@paciku 75%, no it can not be that high, Africa has been building its roads since 60's, only more roads are being built with the help from China given the fact that there is also deficit in road construction

[TheNagaSupremacy]

@paciku..Excellent point.

[2Magnetic]

Chief Ed Fox

Well said it's true Africa and China have a long history of working together. Plus many blacks in the westren world need to know this.

Keep doing the good work Chief Ed Fox.

[clearner123]

Bashing on China in regards to her role in Africa is unjust. Yes, China wants Africa's resources in exchange, that is old news. Yes, there are unhappy people, but, the result is beneficial for the MAJORITY.

China is the best opportunity for Africa to get back on its feet. Without the infrastructure, Africa standstill.

If Africa unify into one country, their growth potential will be explosive. They have the people for large work force, natural resources, and top-notch geo-positioning.

[oluwalogbon58]

why are you americans so insistant that africa is a country like yours?. it is a CONTINENT we are not ONE COUNTRY HAVE NEVER BEEN A COUNTRY AND NEVER WILL BE A COUNTRY.. IN NIGERIA ALONE WE HAVE OVER 200 LANGUAGES AND DIVERSE CULTURES . This is one of the most intelligent discourse i have heard from any american about africa usually there the assumptions are breath-taking in their arrogance and ignorance.. .

[aitan844]

@clearner123 africa is not a country that was a bit of wishful thinking and a bit simplistic.. africa is not like america a set of states unified under one government .. we do not have one culture and one language like the americans , it is a continent so anyone saying otherwise doesnt have any concept of the SCALE of the CONTINENT and what pertains within it..

[kemetianqueen7]

i heard that china helped finance the genocide in ruwanda by supplying machete's and other weapons for self destruction. anyone know if this is accurate?

[tw1704]

Make sure that is not the usual cia set up shi*. I dont know for sure if thats true but its a lot of secret underhand stuff going on.

Many of the countries around the world that are rich in gold, diamonds and especially OIL seem to always have civil wars among the natives while some OTHER country controls their resources.

hmmmmmmm.

[imhotep1]

This is true. They also supplied guns and weapons to apartheid South Africa during the embargo. They along with Russia have a history of selling defective goods to Africa.

[smedheat]

Chinese slave labor is big business right now.

[gallow618]

It's obvious that China, India, and every other nation is courting the African continent for the oil. In my opinion, African countries should go along due to the fact that they will benefit from the help.

[taixi65]

Ed Fox is a great leader and businessman.He has been doing business in China for years,so he really has a deep understanding of China.And it is really hard for the people with different cultures and histories in the world to understand China well.And he really did great jobs to make each other understand more and better.We should trust someone to tell us what is happening around the world,especially in China,the states and Africa.So Ed really can make us know them more.

[sunflower2050]

Edward really has a deep understanding of what is happening around world especially US, China and Africa. Both China and Africa are developing countries with great potential. China has been continuously giving technical,medical, financial support to Africa. Meanwhile, African leaders came to industrial zones in China to learn how to develop their own industrial zones. A friend of mine met with those leaders in 2006 and he told me those African leaders really think there're a lot to learn

[inanna2007]

Ed Fox is a very very brilliant man.He truly understand the facts and what is really going on now.Not what CNN and FOX want us to think.

[Malifx]

China will bring alot to africa but they'll likely take 5 times the honest pay they should take, I guess thats the price you have to pay to get back on your feet. But the ball is in africas court, they are in control unlike the past.

[DeAnte85]

Blaming all of Africa's internal problems on external threats (or races) will not solve the problems of lack of civil liberties, economic, and political freedoms in Africa nor will it allow all of the deeply embeded corrupt institutions (govt) in Africa to reform from the inside, which it DESPARATELY needs.

[DeAnte85]

China owns all but 20% of Sudanese oil. One phone call from the Chinese President could force the Sudanese government to allow UN-AU peacekeeping forces to end the genocide in Sudan and force Mugabe to hold free and fair elections in Zimbabwe.

The dictatorship government of China won't even allow it's own people the freedom of the ballot. China does not care about black Africans! That is a Fact!

[Kalydosos]

I think we've found the oracle all knowledge can be found in this self assuming little mans comment. Zimbabwes is having sanctions brought it against please save your crocodile tears. For the 10 million plus Congolese have their land stolen off them by German,French,British,Isreal and even Russians. All white all theives one day we will gain the power to defend ourselves be afraid!

[DeAnte85]

China's police beat down protesters and squashes dissent in Tibet, China cares about expanding it's markets. China has merely adopted the age old 'dollar diplomacy' of the West. Instead of being dependent on Chinese investment for economic growth, what Africa really needs is economic freedom within it's own borders. Otherwise, it's always be a gutter continent.

China didn't rise through socialism, but capitalism. Africa should take note.

[Kalydosos]

I can't believe the nievety of your comment are you seriously saying the EU or US are willing. To encourage cross border economic cooperation? Dollar diplomacy? Mabuto of Congo was paid billions. He even had an invite to the white house just stick to name calling, like all the other. Unimportant biggots who ambulance chase every positive black blogg what for? Is anyones guess. The KKK are comedy but I don't visit their videos to debate with them it would be weird.

[gallow618]

to Deante85: Yeah but China rose through foreign companies bringing their business to China which brought forth jobs and brought China out of poverty.

[penlei00cn]

china help africa bulid self-confidence and the turely + helpful progress

[getDun2012]

@DeAnte85 r u talking about COMMUNIST china?

[redmunkee]

@getDun2012 COMMUNIST argument.

[EdT586]

Wow, the only smart American I have heard on this subject !

[Kalydosos]

This is excellent I didn't see the China connection to Katryna. More please.

[gluebox]

where is the rest!!!!

[DellDreamer]

Thanks for posting.

Informative and balanced.
