My opinion

How to write about Africa.

This material worked in class cause a big reaction in me, when the writer of this article start talking the way anyone should write about this country i felt Shake for him, that only
Point of view he wants to promote seems to me as the most ignorant one, he just want to show what everybody thinks is their reality, causing shame for african people.
The reason why i felt affected by the article is because i hate the people whoonly knows to refer about some place, away from their knowledge, in a discriminant and devaluing way, just because it cause sensationalism.
I dont think anybody should create realities from places they dont even know, leaving behind the respect for the ones who live in there, undervalue their culture and positive aspects.
If someone wants to show a Bad situation developing anywhere, he must visit that place firts, be sure what he's going to say is true and then, write or talk about it from a critical and objective viewpoint, making sure his not affecting the citizen of that place with his commentaries, and developing the them respectfully.
