# President Cyril Ramaphosa says despite Africa’s many languages and cultures, Africans take pride in a common identity and a belonging that transcends geographical boundaries. May is Africa Month, commemorating the founding of the Organisation of African Unity. In his weekly newsletter, Ramaphosa notes that while most African countries have achieved independence, the effects of the colonial era are still evident in the inequality, economic exclusion, political instability, and conflicts that persist on the continent. He says the historical injustice of colonialism must be confronted with honesty and integrity.
