About this Quote

This quote by George Kimble speaks to the absence of knowledge and understanding of Africa that has been perpetuated throughout history. It is a pointer that the continent of Africa has actually been mostly overlooked and misinterpreted by the remainder of the world. This ignorance has actually led to an absence of appreciation for the rich culture, history, and variety of the African continent. It has actually also resulted in an absence of financial investment in the continent, which has actually led to a lack of economic advancement and opportunities for its people. This quote functions as a pointer that we need to strive to read more about Africa and its individuals in order to much better understand and value its special charm and potential. Just then can we begin to bridge the space in between Africa and the rest of the world.
