[BayAreaOrBust]

I love women like this, and I'm white!

[MrPwnedkitteh]

Hello

[goldenismonica]

the woman at 0:20 looks so pretty.

she has nice wide eyes.

[KushyteKing]

What Ephignie Mukamtabama says at 12:25 are words that every individual and group of humans should aspire to live by

[lorettab77]

Our African men losing their damn minds and TAKING on the psychotic minds of you pale beasts is why African women have been made secondary. An African man in his right mind knows the place for the African woman is at his side, EQUAL partner! AFRICANS: Throw off the psychoses of your oppressors! To my sistas..don't fall for the feminist rhetoric from the pale beast dog bitch. She is a devil and a LIE!

[rigolissimo]

Rwanda is invading and exploiting resources in the Congo.

Kagame and his stooges must go.

[erwin5us]

I am Rwandan and I agree with you. Kagame has got to go

Solar calculators work just as well as battery operated calculators. The solar panels take up less space than batteries do. They operate even without direct light. Why would solar power plants be less efficient that nuclear power plants? That's zany. I wouldn't even want a nuclear powered calculator. It's a small-scale example. Solar energy needs to be brought down to earth as a real option. Let's face it, it's the most rational choice. We just have to figure out a perceivable way that pertains.

i keep tell my dad to fuckin buy land in these 3rd world countries!! wtf? 6 % a year???? but no...he wants to produce a broadway play. stupid ass.

[anyssa43]

I love it! Such an inspirational story.

[Goshyoursomean]

Men are stronger than women? Haha, other way around. Women are stronger that men. : )

[nzingamina]

Having an Arab new station "uncovering Africa" reminds me of colonial Europeans "discovery of Africa".

Fucking racist assholes....how about you discover the Middle East...your suicide bombers...honor killings...lack of women rights...racism toward foreigners.

FUCK YOU....

[southernsudan]

africa Unite. Long live our AFrican People from Southern Sudan to every country in AFrica.. WE do not want conspiracies we will not beg other people we should build our land.

[EsotericDesi]

America's Air Force planes capable of blocking signals of Propaganda radio stations instigating genocide on the ground, were flying over the Rwandan air space... But, America's Govt. refused to give orders to jam the signal to prevent further killings... It was as simple as that...

[Kiyaz]

Its very sad.

[anyssa43]

Wow, what beautifully strong women

[Goshyoursomean]

For years Rwanda has been in bad shape and now that women are in the picture the annual economic growth ahs rose more than six per cent. Ha does that say something

[clg26]

If the entire African American people reunited with their ancestral lands, and united with Africans; the U.S. alone, would be taken over.

[chettiemac]

Yet another powerful, informative, and deeply moving piece by Al Jazeera. 5 stars

[hailabg]

Yes in the present and in the past we have been oppressed and taken advantage off and it is time we stand up and say ENOUGH!!! Then and only then will we get our RESPECT and control our FUTURE and DESTINY!!!XXX

[hailabg]

What happened in Rwanda in 1994 MUST NEVER EVER HAPPEN AGAIN ANYWHERE!!! But we Africans need to hold one another accountable we should look within us to make the necessary changes. If someone is able to defend oneself yet does not do so and let the one taking the offense or advantage do so repeatdly who is to blame???

[MALLYNWO]

African Americans are such a potentially powerful missing link in Africa's struggle.I really despise my people here who feel they have nothing to do with Africa because they were not born there.One football team full black athletes has enough money between them to invest in half of Africa's countries.And the political pressure American blacks could have is not even fathomable.

[clg26]

Wow! Well said...about time more comments like the one you just posted are being mentioned. Africa is just as important to the African Americans as Africans are to the Americans who claim African ancestry.

[tija7]

so true!

[hailabg]

MALLYNWO thank you anf I agree with you fully, as a matter a fact Black Americans should be the beacon of hope for AFRICA...unfortunatley:-(!!!XX­X

[scorpiooooooh]

All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men to do nothing.

[divinejudge1]

This is great news

[GuyInvincible111]

amazing

[SurferRosa79]

I wonder what would happen to mankind if suddenly the male population got reduced by 90%plus...

[zappaelcrappa]

I might have a chance with the opposite sex :}

[SurferRosa79]

hahahaha awesome! I'll vote for keeping you in the remaining 10% ;)

[zappaelcrappa]

thank you lol!

[sbwsk8er]

men would be terrified

[MALLYNWO]

peace on earth.

[SurferRosa79]

MALLYNWO: amen

[CANTB4REAL]

The 10% would have their pick of women. 20 wives for every man.

No but really we do what we have to, that's what keeps evil people from taking over 100%

[SurferRosa79]

CANTB4REAL: very good answer, it just seems to me the immense majority of what we consider the "evil people" just somehow end up being male...

[CANTB4REAL]

Yes this is true and obvious but could it be because it is mainly men that run everything...

Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely...

Look at the queens of past times.

Put some women in charge and time will tell

[kingofbrawl3000]

i get laid always

[jamesrmaclean]

So it seems to me the real obstacle is the meager participation of people in the urban economy, where societies have evolved a matrix of social relationships incorporating empowerment of women.

[jamesrmaclean]

"Vote has not translated to power. Tradition and power have been far harder to change than the laws..."

I think traditional lifestyles (with peculiar roles for women) represent a complex adaptation to ecological and economic conditions faced by the vast majority. Tweaking any one aspect is very hard, since the traditional society is similar to an organism, for which random mutations can easily lead to the collapse or dissolution of the society.

[zappaelcrappa]

United we stand divided we fall !

[Downfacingdog]

Looks like your going to fall.
