african children

 This conversation is based on an advertisement for the One Laptop Per Child Organization in which a small African girl claims she's from a place "you've never heard of", "a continent You'd rather forget"..... She also declares that with Education Africans can "solve their own problems"... Something bugs me about it, and I wonder if I'm the only one.  In this clip, Steve & I play the clip and receive a call from Kazeem, a Nigerian listener who is equally irked.
