As this recession rumbles on and continues to drag us into a state of financial uncertainty, I meet daily people who are now starting to despair. At the beginning of the so called credit crunch many Afrikans domiciled in the west remarked that we have been constantly crunched so it is just business as usual. However, from 2007 until now the pressure has been building up and has now reached explosive proportions.
I am personally concerned that the damage done to us (Afrikans) during this time of ousterity will be irrepairable, at least, for the forseeable future. We are, as has been often stated, occupying the bottom rungs of the socio-political ladder and therefore highly susceptible to the economic downturns and very much less able to weather the storm
