I'm looking for a manga where the subject at hand would be about the wars and genocide ravaging Africa, it's been happening for a while now but I'm hoping there is a manga out there about fairly recent fighting. Like the 1990s up til now. I've never heard of a manga about that and it would be interesting to see it portrayed that way. I'm also open to anime, books and movies too.
I've become interested in what's happening in Africa ever since I learned about invisible children, and I feel so stupid because I only heard about all the horrible stuff going on in Africa four years ago. Granted I'm still in high school, but still... Oh well, I know about it now. I've seen Hotel Rwanda and Blood Diamond, I also saw Tears of the Sun but I can't quite remember if that was accurate or not. I've also read A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a boy soldier, which was amazing and so... ah Anyways Please and thank you!

i don´t know if that is what you´re looking for, but Yuuwaku to Toki
maybe you should watch "The white Massai"
and didn´t George W. Bushs´ daughter (yeah, i know, everynya hates bush) write a book about an african girl which was born with AIDS?

There's What is the What by Dave Eggers, which I find to be really good.

________________

i had no idea if she did but I have to check that out Is the White Masai good, did you like it?

that is definitely going on my reading list

i didn´t watch it since i´m not in africa, but it´s pretty famous here and everyone who saw it said it was really good and unusuall.
and the book is called Ana´s story: a story of hope. I only know baout it because a classmate of mine presented it in literature

and you should prevent double posting. Therefore we have an edit option

Hehe, yay! :]

And another book I found (but have not read) is Say You're One of Them by Uwem Akpan. It's a recent Oprah's Book Club book, so I'm pretty sure it's really good. I don't know how much of it is specifically about soldiers and genocide, but it's a collection of harsh and painful short stories.
