5.0 out of 5 stars The TRUEAL (True and Real) Africa, August 9, 2007

This review is from: Vanity Fair July 2007 Africa Issue, Brad Pitt / Desmond Tutu Cover (Single Issue Magazine)

I have spent years of my life reading and watching news about Africa, and it never matched what I experienced being on site. This issue of Vanity Fair portrays it ALL: the Good, the Bad, The Ugly, the Amazing and the Truth. For a fashion addict that I am, I never bought an issue of Vanity Fair and that day in the Hudson News store, the "Africa" logo caught my attention. When I opened the magazine, this is what got me to buy it, I read the following lines: "The media often treat Africa's 53 countries as a vast hopeless mass. `That hurts' writes one of Kenya literary stars who has a deeply individual tale of his country stunning political change and the emergence of the "Equity Generation"".
A fundamental statement is made in that sentence: it's not Africa, it's about 53 Africans countries, with different cultures, different stories, different lives, different histories...
This issue depicts Africa in its True Light and opens doors to:
- the world to appreciate, to explore, to connect, to respect, to help Africa
- Africans to embrace their homeland and fight for it
Every article is worth reading and gives hope to true journalism. I will buy more of this issue I started to do, to offer to my loves ones. I should thank Vanity Fair, the editor and guest editor.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent articles, wrong cover, August 3, 2007

This review is from: Vanity Fair July 2007 Africa Issue, Brad Pitt / Desmond Tutu Cover (Single Issue Magazine)

I got sent an issue with the wrong cover - Pitt is on it, Tutu not. Other than that the magazine is very interesting and has a lot of informing articles on Africa in it.
