Brown & Carroll provide a clear plan for introducing Africa and Africans to young students.  They give a clear rationale and procedure to mitigate the stereotypes that can be reinforced by the traditional K-W-L chart.  Wainana, on the other hand, uses satire to draw attention to the common mis-perceptions and stereotypes surrounding Africa and Africans.  I particularly enjoyed this article and hope to incorporate it into my AP World History class.  I'm excited to have my students dissect the article to uncover a more nuanced understanding of Africa and Africans.
