Program description:
Afrikaleidoscope is an African public affairs program
that focuses on the history, current events and future
developments in Africa and the African diaspora,
including the United States, the Caribbean, Central
and South America, the Pacific Islands and even
Europe. The programs also focuses attention on any
country in the world where its social and/or political
order (or disorder) may have a negative or positive
impact on Africa and African people. To achieve this,
Afrikaleidoscope presents news, views, reviews and
previews of information, cultural events, economic
developments or ideological advancement and/or
spiritual upliftment, primarily to African people but
to humankind at large.
