Why It Is That

When you watch movies and they want to show events happening in different parts of the world, you will see the Eiffel Tower for France, Big Ben for the UK, the Statue of Liberty for the US but when it comes to Africa, you always see a bunch of black people in loin cloths in some safari like place with lions and elephants in the backdrop???!!!! I don't get it. Maybe its just me, but I am thinking 'Is it that there are no notable landmarks in any of the African countries?

Please if you know someone who knows someone in Hollywood, please tell them that they should stop rehashing that 'single story' of what Africa looks like. We have high rise buildings over here too and streets bustling with people who are actually wearing proper clothes. Yes, we have suits and dresses. And we have beaches too. Why cannot the aliens from space drop their alien bombs all over...well...well....The National Theatre in Lagos for instance! Or somewhere nice and notable in Senegal, le petit Paris? I can even manage the Pyramids in Egypt if I must.....

Yes o!
