Why is the public's impression of Africa black and poor?

First of all, the development of African countries is really backward, and they are generally developing countries. Moreover, there are many international news about famine and unrest in Africa, which gives people the impression that Africa is chaotic and poor.

Most people's impression of Africa is that Africans are black, particularly poor and particularly primitive. The reason why we have such an impression has a lot to do with the information we usually come into contact with.

First of all, because the natural scenery in Africa is very primitive and beautiful, many film and television companies will go to Africa to shoot, and there will always be more or less pictures of the living conditions of Africans. Many people think that Africa is very poor and backward. Coupled with the mention of Africa, the subconscious will think of heat, so there is the impression that Africans are black.

In addition, it is often seen in the international news that people in a certain African country can't eat because of famine, or some famous photos showing African life are all showing the hardships of African life. Especially after these works won the prize, they spread more widely. So people will not think of Africa's rich resources, but the first impression will be that Africans are poor.

Moreover, many countries in Africa have poor public security, frequent unrest and bullets. In this environment, people don't even have a stable life. How can they be rich? For example, South Africa gradually became the only developed country in Africa under the management of white people. But it didn't last long. After blacks became the masters of this country, South Africa declined rapidly, and the whole country fell into a chaotic situation, and the economic level plummeted. This matter has a great influence on the outside world.

Finally, Africans like to emigrate to Europe, America and other countries, and even smuggle. After these Africans go to Europe and America, they often do something out of line, which affects the local public security environment. It makes people demonize Africa imperceptibly in their hearts, so Africa has become a spokesman for poverty.
