DESCRIPTION:Contemporary Africa: Challenges, AFRICOM, and the Obama 
 Presidency\n\nWalter Turner will explore the battle for the resources of 
 Africa and the strategic interests of the United States, Asia, and Europe 
 on the African continent. The global “war on terror” and changing terms 
 of trade relations have challenged equitable social development in Africa. 
 The establishment of a new US military command structure for 
 Africa-AFRICOM-has been resisted by almost every Africa country and its 
 peoples. President Obama will face challenges from the recent history of 
 Africa if there is the possibility of changing US policy to meet the needs 
 of contemporary Africa.\n\nWalter Turner is a Professor of Social Sciences 
 and Contemporary African Affairs at the College of Marin in Kentfield, 
 California. He is the President of the Board of Directors of Global 
 Exchange. He is the host and producer of the weekly Pacifica radio Program 
 "Africa Today" which is aired on KPFA Radio in Berkeley, California.
