| Also... to be fair, this is a pretty hard quiz. There are some names that surprise me, and others which are baffling in their absence. I don't think I would have gotten all or even most of the answers if I had to guess. Mostly I wanted to convey how little non-Africans appreciate African culture; there are already several African geography and flag quizes, but few people could NAME many famous Africans unfortunately. I hope this changes that. I've also put up a similar quiz for African artists based on an 'expert panel' from The Independent, which included Baaba Maal (Senegalese mbalax superstar), Dr. Frances Harding (lecturer on African drama at SOAS), Augustus Casely-Hayford (program director for Africa 05) and others. I found it to be a much better representation, and an easier one to guess, though that may be from my background. Give it a shot. :-) |
