The Essence Of Africa's Crises Is Fundamentally

Extreme Poverty Is The Best Breeding Ground On Earth For Disease, Political Instability, And Terrorism.

The Time Has Come To End This Charade. The Debts Are Unaffordable. If They Won't Cancel The Debts I Would Suggest Obstruction; You Do It Yourselves. Africa Should Say: 'thank You Very Much But We Need This Money To Meet The Needs Of Children Who Are Dying Right Now So We Will Put The Debt Servicing Payments Into Urgent Social Investment In Health, Education, Drinking Water, Control Of Aids And Other Needs.'

Our Challenge, Our Generation's Unique Challenge, Is Learning To Live Peacefully And Sustainably In An Extraordinarily Crowded World. Our Planet Is Crowded To An Unprecendented Degree. It Is Bursting At The Seams. It's Bursting At The Seams In Human Terms, In Economic Terms, And In Ecological Terms

The Essence Of Africa's Crisis Is Fundamentally Its Extreme Poverty And Therefore Its Inability To Mobilize Out Of Its Own Resources Even The Barest Of Minimum Resources To Address Any Of The Public Health Crises That Africa Faces.

This Is Our Greatest Challenge: Learning To Live In A Crowded And Interconnected World That Is Creating Unprecedented Pressures On Human Society And On The Physical Environment.
