and the livestock. Whereas, Sub-Saharan Africa, in particular Kenya, is an example of desertification because the grazing exceeds the sustainable supply of grass by 30 percent. To avoid the burden on rangelands, Kenya is feeding the livestock with crop residues. However, the much degraded soil due to the grazing, coupled with an arid climate with more deserts and the scarcity of water supplies reduce the possibilities for sustainable agriculture in the sub-Saharan Africa.

would be more credible if there was a larger sample size of a more wide variety of locations. While it is clear that sub-Saharan Africa has one of the highest correlations between vulnerability to climate change and religion importance, the inclusion of more locations outside of the sub-Saharan area would solidify the data and conclusions.

Governments in developing countries tend to place power in the hands of the few, meaning that only a few…

The reason for this would have been the same as those in migratory societies, practicality. Although the women were no longer restrained by the need to carry infants long distances, and the presence of a crying child would not have had the same effect on domesticated animals as on the hunted prey, they still had to be concerned about the safety of the toddler.

In addition, others also use letter writing, Internet campaigns, and stage public demonstration to gain media coverage (Thomas).

In contrast, an elitist perspective conveys the elite interest groups who represent…

books, ever since we were young we were taught that a reliable image of a manager or a doctor is a Caucasian lady smiling. We were taught that being skinny like Fashion TV models is the definition of beauty, we were taught through the media that Africa is nothing but poor, hunger and drought, that Black people are nothing but savage… The white-supremists have done a very good job in putting a little chip in our brain to operate us, to make us robots…

Well known essayist and writer, Ta-Nehisi Coates, wrote an essay, “The Case for Reparations,” that was published in The Atlantic, in 2014, in which the essay describes the hardships the black race has gone through and is still are going through.

stated that she thinks the majority of Americans see Africans as educated. This connects back to what Brandon said about success being the only option. Africans, regardless of what country they come from come to the United States for a reason. All Africa parents want their children to be Lawyers, doctors and engineers because they don’t want them to struggle like they did. This is way the population of African students on college campuses is growing. When they come to America going to college is…

With unjustness in every aspect of a black man and women’s life. The problem is obviously the biggest thing that is important in my paper; which seems like all people focus on now a days. What I want to get to is our solutions, the struggles of every civil rights activist, every slave who revolted, and every everyday black human that aided in…
