Good Reasons for Why You Should Not Ignore Sudan — Weekly Banter

Mike, Charles and Jerm discuss the war in Sudan and why it is largely ignored across the world. The deflection is certainly not organic.

 

Talking points:


● Sudan's crisis does not get much media attention
● Big power politics are behind many African conflicts
● Western countries need to take ownership of the results of their actions
● The media often glosses over the outsiders who fuel the conflict
● Foreign aid sometimes makes things worse instead of better
● Global conflicts are all connected and affect what happens locally
● You need to follow the money to understand what is really happening
● Some NGOs actually work for foreign governments
● We need to know where foreign money goes and why
African countries must constantly fight off outside interference
