I feel you on the soccer part, we play soccer with them and they do support us when we play. In the sports well, the unity is there, and even culturally to some extent, looking at all the Rai N B collaborations. The unity is much more predominant in France. <br /><br />Gaddafi has been pusing for a United Africa and I personally like him for that. I think the rest of us (Sub-Saharan) must buy into how much we need them (North African) and how they need us.MIghTy Africanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09052671185056191270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659757082629783950.post-53269728058164110532010-08-03T10:36:26.489+02:002010-08-03T10:36:26.489+02:00That business of them denying is to be debated as ...That business of them denying is to be debated as well. They are eager to play the Africa Cup and in my ubuntu World Cup post an Algerian football player said he was happy to represent the continent. Gaddafi has been rooting for a United States of Africa for time and I asked a friend of mine about her trip to Egypt and whether she felt that she was out of Africa and/ or out of place and she told me that when she asked Egyptians where they thought she was from they though she was from Southern Egypt and was Nubian. I think a lot of this stuff is perpetuated in media channels and by the powers that be who have a vested interest in separating the continent arbitrarily as they did with the random country borders and some of us unfortunately buy into it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07999975598314428644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659757082629783950.post-30953181959465697682010-08-03T09:10:05.867+02:002010-08-03T09:10:05.867+02:00nice nice!
North Africa must be included! I know ...nice nice!<br /><br />North Africa must be included! I know they may deny us, but let's not deny them. Like @Bonang_M said on Twitter recently - "Rise above.
