Taking the continent as a whole, this religious tension may be responsible for the revival of the commonest racial feeling. africa is divided into black and white, and the names that are substituted- africa south of the sahara, africa north of the sahara- do not manage to hide this latent racism. here, it is affirmed that white africa has a thousand-year-old tradition of culture; that she is mediterranean, that she is a continuation of europe and that she shares in graeco-latin civilization. black africa is looked on as a region that is inert, brutal, uncivilized - in a word, savage.

My son is a great kid and does super well in school. i couldn't be prouder of him. what i tell him is, 'you don't want to just be known for being the son of a rich rock 'n' roll star.' i've seen a lot of kids like that. i want him to be happy, work hard and create his own thing. i tell him, 'you're not gonna be one of these kids up on stage playing with me. if you wanna have hits - write your own. then we can play together.'
