Former president Thabo Mbeki says young Africans should be given a more positive view of their history. Mbeki says Africans need to document and teach their own history in schools.

Mbeki says too many believe they have been victims of slavery, colonisation and apartheid with no control over their destiny. Mbeki says South Africa's education system needs to promote African pride adding that colonialism doesn't define Africa's future.


He says Africa’s youth should be empowered to take responsibility and transform the continent. Mbeki has called on Africans to conscientize the youth to continue the struggle to fully liberate the continent.
