In a contemporary, technology-rich and
technologically-savvy world, which, nonetheless, in some places, still appears
to be handicapped by wide-spread ignorance and distorted information about Africa, it's heart-warming to behold this sterling degree and display of expertise on Africa's geopolitical map. This YouTube presentation (see the link below) rekindles my memory of an
undergraduate studies experience of mine at Indiana University, Bloomington,
Indiana, years ago, during which I took a course on “World History” whereby the
professor required us to fill-in empty maps of Africa with specific names of
African countries as part of each of the closed-book examinations that he
administered on us! I commend and salute the author of this brilliant YouTube
presentation. Please, watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBShVSaxejU&feature=share
