The Ravaging of Africa is a four-part radio documentary series that details the destructive impact of U.S. imperialism on Africa. The U.S. government has fueled 14 wars in Africa. The methods employed include direct and proxy invasions as well as arms transfers and military training. The U.S. has used the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund to systematically demolish African economies and health and education sectors. This military and economic war enables the looting of Africa's resources by Western multinational corporations. Washington's genocidal imperial strategy has killed more than 26 million Africans but failed to suppress popular resistance.
