Lumumba’s Africa | E-waste & deadly landfills

For a long time, Africa has been – and remains – a dumping ground for electronic waste from all over the world. Thousands are forced to seek a living on polluted, poisoned grounds, where the entire periodic table of elements has soaked the soil, water and air. Death, disease and disfigurement of Africans – such is the price that the former colonizers are more than willing to pay in exchange for a way to cheaply rid themselves of electric garbage. Venerable Professor PLO Lumumba shines a spotlight on the issue and seeks solutions to the injustice of electronic waste.
