Monacharen notes Bill Clinton’s Africa tour provoking critics who label his remarks on slavery as moral preening. He cites New York columnist Bill Clinton’s misgivings about neglect, money, and intervention in Rwanda and Somalia, arguing the United States bears heavy blame in Africa’s plight while praising South Africa’s transition. Several figures, including Jesse Jackson, are described as supportive or guiding this high profile visit.
