The virus of Eurocentrism seems very hard to eradicate. When the U.S. announced that Obama would be visiting Egypt the international media(BBC, Radio France Internationale, etc.) all talked about BHO's trip to the Middle East. Now when it was announced that he would be travelling to Ghana, the Eurocentric news media claimed that BHO's first trip to Africa would not be to Kenya but to Ghana. Then later the BBC slightly corrected itself in the usual racist way by announcing that BHO's first trip to sub-Saharan Africa as president would be to GhanaPosts: 5492 | Registered: Nov 2004
