African Scholars Get Less Youtube Views

   I am an African scholar. I started to post videos on to youtube over three years ago (thinkingman2). I did not expect a lot of views because I was posting quotations and analysis of works from an African perspective. I was not talking about the dramatic way in which Africans engage with each other. I was not singing or dancing. I was not filming my cat playing a piano or my child playing. A funny thing happened, I started to receive more views than I thought I would, and became pleasantly surprised. One day a viewer responded to a video that I did on lynching in the U. S. The viewer asked me why the video did not have more views. They thought that a large number of the African community should watch the video. I had to explain to the viewer that African people are not interested in scholarship in large numbers, they want entertainment. As a matter of fact, the psychological operation on African people has been so thorough that African people have come to dread deep thinking. I have committed the rest of my life to reversing this psychological phenomenon. So roam through my channel and engage with some knowledge.
