Le dilemme Africain: Nègre de maison vs Nègre des champs.

Ce dialogue fictif mais terriblement actuel nous parle d'un phénomène social méconnu: le dilemme de l'Afrique. ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽

Quand les opprimés sont divisés en deux castes - ceux qui croient avoir intérêt à défendre le système et ceux qui luttent pour leur libération - le vrai pouvoir du maître se révèle.

Entre collaboration et révolution, entre privilèges relatifs et liberté véritable, plongez dans cette conversation qui dépasse l'époque de l'esclavage pour éclairer nos divisions contemporaines...
Le Nègre de maison: Notre vie s’est bien améliorée, et nos conditions sont bien meilleures. Le maître se montre bienveillant à mon égard. Si tu acceptes mon autorité, je te ferai bénéficier des mêmes avantages que moi, et ensemble, nous dominerons les autres nègres.

Le Nègre des champs: Mais nous ne possédons rien, alors que la richesse du maître est le fruit de notre travail! Tout ce qu’il promet de nous donner nous appartient déjà. Nous avons la force et l’intelligence pour bâtir nous-mêmes ce que nous voulons, dès que nous serons libres.

Plus tard, le Nègre de maison rassemble d’autres nègres et leur dit: Grâce à ma proximité avec le maître, nous avons obtenu des routes, des ponts et des hôpitaux. Mais un ennemi menace nos acquis: le Nègre des champs. Il veut vous libérer du joug du maître, au prix de tout ce que nous avons construit.

Et à l’unisson, ils décident de neutraliser ce Nègre des champs, qui s’oppose à leur bonheur d’esclave.

Ce dialogue n'est pas qu'une page d'histoire - c'est un miroir de nos luttes actuelles.

Aujourd'hui encore, certains préfèrent défendre les miettes du système plutôt que de s'unir pour réclamer le pain entier. 

Le "Nègre de maison" existe dans chaque communauté opprimée, dans chaque mouvement social, semant la division pour préserver des privilèges illusoires.

Et vous, dans ce dialogue, lequel incarnez-vous parfois sans le vouloir?
👉 Celui qui croit protéger ses acquis en servant le système?
👉 Ou celui qui comprend que la vraie liberté exige de tout reconstruire?

"This video (link below) of Jack Ma presenting Alibaba’s vision to his peers is profoundly inspiring: 'Aim for the stars, and you may reach the heavens.'" Jack Ma's pitching Alibaba to his friends Adopt a global perspective for your enterprise and prepare for inevitable success—not merely to dominate domestically, but to compete with the world’s finest. Consider Naspers, a South African company that achieved precisely this.   Yet most of Africa’s so-called "tech tycoons" operate as mere intermediaries, distributing Western multinationals’ products across the continent. While lucrative for them, this model perpetuates Africa’s technological subjugation. The notion of "technology transfer" is illusory, for true innovation establishes supremacy—and entrenches dependence.   Everything begins with imagination, which crystallizes into ideas and, through sustained action, materializes into reality. After all, Rome was not built in a day.   If Africa c...

Developing agriculture in rural South Africa.

One of the news about Trump's becoming president of the United States for Africa is the cessation of USAID funding for South Africa (about USD 400 million). Although this will have negative effects on ARV recipients, and the medical coverage of a large number in this country with a very high rate of HIV infections, USAID funding only represents 17% of the country's medical assistance needs. The reason given by Trump is the adoption of the land expropriation bill introduced by South Africa President, Cyril Ramaphosa. For Trump, it is a racist law against white farmers who can be dispossessed of “their lands”; a debate that we will not dwell on, because it is propaganda from white supremacists who consider that they acquired these lands legally, but everyone knows that it is their spoils of apartheid. For our part, we will cite Houphouët Boigny, first president of Côte d'Ivoire, who, to launch the vast agrarian programme in Côte d'Ivoire in the 1970s, had the slogan, ...

Control over cutting-edge technology initiatives is power.

Attracting investment into your economy is always good news for economic growth and job creation. But repeating the mistake of the past is detrimental to the sovereignty of African states. African states must move beyond obsessing over the amount of investment they receive to the detriment of control, which is real power, especially in our current digital world where data is the new gold rush. (Link below of article on Cutting-edge technology) The economy of waste. Cutting-edge technology has become a critical field with the advent of artificial intelligence. A state responsible for its own data and the implementation of its own AI ecosystem will not be in slavery in the future. An artificial intelligence project must be a direct initiative from a state;  Western leaders recently held an artificial intelligence summit in Paris; I haven't seen any African country as participant! Doesn't it sound like the Berlin Conference of 1884, where no African state was invited to attend? (L...
