#Africasees is a call for Pan-Africanism on #BlackTwitter

After spotting the above headline while doing her daily news read, Huffington post writer and Ethiopian-American, Adedana Ashebir, decided to make an appeal to the masses. The hashtag #Africasees is digital activism, created to hold journalists accountable for the type of language they use to generalize a continent three times the United States and made up of 54 countries. I’m hoping #AfricaSees takes off, because the last time #blacktwitter went global was when we were all wondering whether or not Justin Sacco had landed.
