My African cliché of the day is like a fabric. A fabric made of gossips and lies, a fabric that wraps most Africans migrating to the West, into an insulting category of trying to abuse the social benefits system whereever they live.
However, like Yasuke did before them, to surpass oneself in a foreign country, to defy isolation, xenophobia, prejudices, discrimination, and so and so , in order to reach their dreams, is a characteristic of the majority of the Africans scattered around the world !
I said majority of course, bacause, obviously, some people have abused the social safety nets in their adoption countries. But in any case, this marginal proportion shouldnt be used as an excuse, to insult the silent majority of migrants who is fighting everyday to make a living with honesty and dignity.
