1957 High School Debate about Prejudice: Nigeria, Ethiopia, Ghana & South Africa

[Nyani Ngabu]

I wasn’t sure where to file this under. So I just filed it under the most popular sub-forum of Politics.

The JF powers that be can re-file it where it’s more appropriate, if they see fit.

But damn! I’m impressed by these kids. Especially the Nigerian boy.

He debated with so much aplomb that it’s hard to believe he was only 16 years old at the time. Was he really 16? 😀

The Ethiopian kid was ignorant AF! I wonder if that’s how some in Ethiopia think of black Africans to this day.

Anywho, no more talk. Just watch the video and share your comments.

I wonder what became of this Nigerian boy. He seemed to be so confident!

The boy has shown no waves on his brain,he has calm head and full confident.

Mie bado siamini kama kweli hawa ni teenagers. The girl from South Africa is a walking conundrum to me, a clear cut example of how social institutions pushes people towards lines of thinking and doing that is contrary to the ideals of humanity.
