African Farmer Battles BBC Racists
African Farmer Battles BBC Racists

BBC sinks to new lows in "reporting" in a smear campaign aimed at a Kenyan subsistence farmer hoping to lift Africans out of poverty.

Jusper Machugo starts a small on-line campaign raising awareness of the poverty of Africa.

His wish list includes things like tap water, electricity and farm equipment.

But since tractors use fossil fuels, the BBC's climate reporter does a smear campaign against Machugo (on the BBC website, Apple podcasts, Twitter and Facebook!) denouncing him as the leader of climate change deniers, inventing a conspiracy theory that he's a stooge for big oil.

It's a racist approach as ultimately reporter Marco Silva objects to Africans having what's basic in the west.

It's a colonizing attitude that objects to Africans expressing an opinion that counters the BBC's narrative.
