The New York Times > International > Scores Killed in Attack on Refugee Camp in Burundi

I'm very pessimistic about the near term future of Africa. The combination of tribal strife, religious animosities, AIDS and other disease, government corruption and incompetence...and the list goes on... provides little hope for the people to make any progress. There are some countries that are exceptions, but they don't come quickly to mind.

Can the media find any good news on this continent?
