Kudos to Egypt for hosting a good and eventless African Nations Cup particularly in light of the massacre of the African / Sudanese refugees in Cairo two months ago.

Congratulations to the Egyptian team for emerging as the winners.

As an African I hope that this win will inspire Egyptians (academics, intellectuals, professionals, lay-people) to self-reflect both philosophically and sociologically, as well as geo-politically, about their place in Africa.

Hopefully Egypt's media will start portraying Africa, African literature and culture and African affairs in a contemporary light.
Hopefully we won't see more Egyptian films parodying blacks and Africans.

Hopefully the African Cup of Nations win will result in less Egyptian racism towards Africans, otherwise the victory would be wanting...

I seen the highlights on Fox Soccer channel, obviously Dragba is a bum, IMO for a regular game to be decided on penalty kicks is one thing, but winning a championship on penalty kicks is ridiculus, the result should be decided on the field in a championship game!

congrats anyways

Egypt must position itself differently on so many issues including Africa, Europe, the US and Asia. We must work hard on so many fronts!

Dear Freedom for Egyptians,

I agree with your statement:

Egypt must position itself differently on so many issues including Africa, Europe, the US and Asia. We must work hard on so many fronts!

I also think that you would agree that specifically, as regards Africa, Egypt must work on combating the 'menace' of racism. Particularly in light of the African Cup of Nations Win and the massacre of the African / Sudanese refugees two months ago and the Egyptian public reaction to it...

Does it must moral sense for a country that has pervasive racism towards Africans to represent the African continent and people at the top of the world of football?

I think that you will agree that racism against blacks and Africans is a problem in Egypt, and that racism is a serious societal menace and that racism must be combatted.

You do think that racism is a bad thing, don't you?
