1957 High Schoolers Debate- Nigeria’s Boniface Offokaja, Ethiopia, Ghana and South Africa.

Participants are Miss Amelia Addae, Gold Coast (now Ghana); Miss Susan Rennie,South Africa; Mr. Mesfin Binega, Ethiopia; Mr. Boniface Offokaja, Nigeria; and Mrs. Waller. The program centers around Mrs. Waller’s question, “Are Americans prejudiced in their opinions about Africa?“ In replying, the young delegates said: (Boniface)“They most certainly are. How could they be objective about African Negroes when they are so full of prejudice about American Negroes.“ (Susan)“I come from South Africa, and I disagree with you completely. Americans are prejudiced in favor of native Africans but they are very prejudiced against white people in Africa.“
