This is one of the focal points of Saturday's annual Five Colleges "Africa Day" at Mount Holyoke. Two Umass-Amherst faculty members who are the event's keynote speakers: Assistant Professor Mwangi wa Githinji and Professor Leonce Ndikumana about their research on developing economies and how those positive stories get told.
