and Africa learns starts building processing their natural resources to multiply value, instead of selling it,

My brother in neocolonialism, why do you think Africa is selling the resources?

If an African nation even thinks of building a factory to process goods locally, some combination of the IMF, USA, France, Britain, China, Russia, UN, and multinational corporations will make sure that doesn't happen. The US isn't stopping their meddling in Africa either, they're just shifting from a France-like tactic of multinationals, conditional subsidies, and proxy wars to a Russia-like tactic of multinationals, proxy wars, and invasions.

Yeah, it's very unfortunate, but I still have hope that things will get better. Even though the African Union is a mess, there's lots of good stuff happening despite all the meddling from foreign nations. Africa is a region in hard-mode because of all the resources they have that everyone wants. It is my firm belief that it won't continue forever. With better education and diaspora returning, things are changing.
