The New Scramble for Africa

In this episode of Lumumba’s Africa, Professor P.L.O. Lumumba tackles the “New Scramble for Africa,” arguing that independence was not the end of colonialism but the beginning of a more sophisticated takeover. He exposes the mechanisms of “false independence,” where African nations are left with the facade of political power while real control and resources are orchestrated and exploited by foreign powers.

The New Scramble for Africa
Lumumba’s Africa focuses on the past and current issues affecting the African continent; Filmed amidst the beautiful landscapes of Kenya and hosted by Professor P.L.O. Lumumba, the show looks at the many dichotomies of Africa: why are some of the economies thriving while others stall; why conflicts emerge and refuse to die down, and why despite colonialism being ‘gone’, it still ruins the prosperity of nations.
