African Black Beans (Mind Liberation #8)

“African PHDs” (i.e., leaders with the “Pull Him Down”/”Pull Her Down” mind-set) have stifled the cultivation, development, & fruition of mature & responsible African leadership. These dysfunctional leaders are “African Black Beans”—black on the outside, but white on the inside. Pigmentally & geographically, these African leaders may be classified as black; but they have the same mind-set of their former— & present—colonial masters. When we challenge their incompetency & lack of vision, they whip up tribalism—which is the most comfortable shelter under which they rest from their hard work of incompetence and selfishness.—S.K.
