Obama didn’t deliver for Africa – can Biden prove that black lives matter everywhere? | Vava Tampa

There is reason to hope the president-elect will pivot from long-standing US policy of backing continent's strongman leaders

How different is the Biden-Harris administration's Africa policy going to be from Donald Trump's, or even Barack Obama's? Many African people, as well as the continent's strongman leaders, are now gingerly asking - is Biden going to be Obama 2.0, or Trump-lite?

For the sake of black lives mattering everywhere in these turbulent times, I hope Biden will chart a bold new course, diametrically away from not only Trump but also Obama's Africa policy.
