The basic problem in Africa stems from deeply rooted tribal ties based upon oral histories that provoke a sense of nationalism. The tribes want to be independent of a central government and rule themselves by their own laws and customs. Except for the weaker tribes that historically got the crap kicked out of them on a regular basis. They still get the crap kicked out of them on a regular basis. They want protection from what they are unwilling or unable to stop. Zimbabwe is an execellent example of the myth of multi-cultural societies. To the outside world, Zimbabwe looks like one country and one culture whose citizens are too stupid to get their act together. In reality, they are different cultures confined to exist within a fixed geographical area where the largest or strongest culture is going to dominate the others.
While the majority may want change (I don't know), I doubt they could agree on what that change should be and whomever they replace Mugabe with will end up just like him in the end. Until the overwhelming majority of the population begins to identify themselves, first, foremost, and only as citizens of the nation of Zimbabwe and leave the tribal crap to history and genealogy studies, the situation in Zimbabwe and countries like it will remain the same.If legislation makes you equal, you aren't.

They have learned. Others take longer to learn. Some never learn.
