November 30, 2020 USA/Africa: Build Back Better on Africa Policy
“President Trump's overt contempt for Africans is encapsulated in
his famously crass remark about African countries. But the
principal damage to Africa has stemmed from his administration’s
broader policy choices, such as the disastrous rejection of the
World Health Organization (WHO) and the Paris climate accords;
harsh curbs on legal immigration and asylum; and gutting of gender
equality programs. … Nevertheless, the Biden administration should
not merely go back to the pre-Trump status quo. … We argue that an
even more fundamental questioning of U.S. Africa-related policy is
needed.” - Imani Countess and William Minter
November 18, 2020 Ethiopia: Not Too Late to Step Back from War?
“We, the undersigned citizens of countries of the Horn of Africa,
condemn in the strongest possible terms the outbreak and escalation
of open warfare in Ethiopia. We are saddened by the attendant
losses of life, property, infrastructure and opportunities. We
deplore in equally strong terms further stoking of the conflict. …
This conflict will not have winners; the only winners in war are
those who are wise and courageous enough to avoid it.”
September 18, 2019 Horn of Africa: Interview with Kassahun Checole
For over 36 years, Kassahun Checole has shepherded hundreds of
manuscripts into publication through his twin publishing houses
Africa World Press and Red Sea Press. He is widely respected among
scholars and activists in Africa and around the world as one of the
giants of African and African American publishing. Yet his own keen
insights on Africa´s past and present, particularly on Eritrea and
Ethiopia, are hardly to be found in print or on-line.
