The images of Africans depict hungry little children and their mothers with flies swarming around them, probably in some refugee camps. This makes the words “hunger and drought” become synonymous with Africa. In a YouTube video, Better Glob, while commenting on Africa, says: “Africa is the only region in the world where poverty and hunger continue to increase despite fifty billion dollars in charity. » Better Glob adds: “Eighty percent of African farmers live on less than a dollar a day, and more than forty percent of Africa's population lacks clean water. Only two out of five children have access to adequate education. Africans are portrayed as people who can do nothing to help themselves, who are helpless and dying of poverty and AIDS, who cannot speak for themselves and wait to be saved by the West . The media always shows images of sad and dirty African children, with eyes that call for an urgent donation of money, which are regularly used to tell people that this is how Africans suffer from chronic hunger. In the Ted Talks video, Africa is poor and 5 other myths, Simon Moss says, people believe that poverty is getting worse and that nothing ever changes in Africa. These are things that have been built over decades. This is why many Westerners view Africa as a poverty-stricken country, where wars and disease wreak havoc. Nothing good comes from Africa, as are various things about Africa.
