while we all may know about gold and its many uses such as a form of finance and fashion, there is more history to it than what meets the eye. Gold was something that is found in the lands of Africa, yet this continents history and significance is diminished and brought to the use of others who have no right to it. An example of this is the struggles of Sudanese people. Countries are aligning alongside each other to pit Sudanese people against each other. With this internal conflict comes the fuel for trouble and drainage of our assets. The UAE has been helping in funding the death many civilians in the country, whilst taking the gold of Sudan and milking it dry. another example of the usage of gold being diminished from its origins and the type of gold that is being predominantly sold on the market. it’s hard to find gold that is rather yellow in hue compared to most golds in America with which are white or rose gold most of the time. That is because still want to reap the benefits of taking such materials. if something does not work in ones favor then clearly one must change it in order to do so. I think in this case that people of Sudan should change the system, so it then works in their favor. they should change the system that pits a brother against a brother, a son against a mother, a friend against a friend, and a government against its people.
