Abstract

Africa, the cradle of humanity, is a land of welcome for the entire human race. In a socio-political sense, since an immemorial time, Africans have supported other continents in peril, under the threat of famine, war and so on. Hence its involvement in world wars, which were not primarily of concern to it. Nor was its support for the colonizers, including the French. But Africans in general, and Brazzavillians in particular, remain thirsty because of their expectations of France. Services rendered under the guise of peril reveal blood ties that go beyond simple friendship. This is the case of inter-tribal and inter-royalty marriages (Doumtsop Djouda, 2009). In this case, we are talking about the ultimate sacrifice, which paradoxically met with ingratitude from the country that is supposed to be our brother, France. Being called 'undocumented' in Paris in the 21st century, for example, further obstructs the process of resilience put in place by the Africans themselves, and which is only waiting for France's active participation to perfect its process. Given that the colonization that followed, neo-colonization, and the various ideological, religious, economic, political and monetary (CFA) entrenchments, are the main obstacles to this resilience.
