00:00I want to ask if you can really feel that colonialism still affects you today,
00:04and if it does, then what are the effects that you can feel?
00:08We still do think about it because Germany has influenced our culture.
00:13We have German beliefs now, not just Germany, just Western and from Europe.
00:17After independence, we suffered mass poverty, mass illiteracy,
00:21because even the education provided by them, it was just focused to few people.
00:26Some Tanzanians still think that less superior,
00:30or they don't find themselves in the same worth as Europeans or whites in general.
00:35We always look to the West, for example, imports, exports.
00:39Tanzanites, they're always being exported to the West.
00:41We're not keeping them inside or making our jewelry on our own.
00:43It's our country, but we don't get to decide our own rules, our own matches.
00:47They have to decide for us, and we can't do anything because we are not financially strong
00:52that we can buy them off like how they do to us.
