““In the U.S., “Instead of feeling guilty for having too much fun, one is inclined to feel ashamed of if one does not have enough.”114 Living and growing up in this kind of culture, it is not easy for the West to understand the social, economic, and psychological conditions of Africans. It requires both cognitive objective knowledge and empathy to grasp the dilemma of Africans. The disparities in income and lifestyle, don’t make it impossible to have mutual understanding and appreciation of each other so long as those who are privileged extend the right hand of fellowship to Africans and treat them with dignity and respect. I sometimes wonder how much Christians in the West know the economic disparity between the West and Africa is imposed and conditioned by the Western governments and their foreign policies.””
