Qudhac Posted February 17, 2005 The Africa today is different from that of yesterday. The Africa of today is witnessing a renaissance, one that is not merely going to change leaders and whitewash old structures. It is a renaissance that is seeing real changes taking place: meaningful political reforms, the building of democratic institutions, economic reforms, freedom of the press, etc. Such changes are spearheaded by new leadership in Africa. This new leadership has rekindled the spirits of Africans, awakening them to the new day at hand, and African dawn. The impending African Renaissance is a result of the reforms developed and implemented by post-postcolonial African leadership. By outlining some of the challenges, the new leadership in Africa would face as they create their renaissance and offering solutions to some of these challenges, there is no doubt that the creation of the African Renaissance would be easy. The task of creating the African Renaissance should not be shouldered by the new leadership of Africa and Africans alone; the global community must play their part by creating a Global Constituency for Africa. the wars seem to have subsided, people are picking up the peaces and fresh new breaze seems to be hitting this dark yet rich continent. can africa for the first time step on their two own feet and take step out of its quarmire.
