| 520 | |a This paper is a reflection on the power of the west to frame and represent Africa. Highlighting how colonial interpretive fore-structures constrained western predictions about Covid-19 spread to Africa, it claims that the virus misbehaved, failing to materialize the expected catastrophic outcomes. It contends that the shunning of the vaccine programs in Africa is rather a synecdoche for popular resistance against non-participatory policies. Beyond distribution and access to vaccines policies, it advocates a different kind of social justice that includes listening with respect to African voices and empowering the peoples to read, interpret, and tell their own experiences and stories. | ||
