Question:
Kwame Nkrumah “Capitalism is a development by refinement from Feudalism, just as Feudalism is a development by refinement from Slavery. Capitalism is but the gentlemen’s method of Slavery: ” Set the location for this quote, discuss its relevance in both the Pre- and Post-Colonial context as applied to its geography, geopolitics, and events since 1957 for most countries in the region, and add how YOU interpret current world market forces driving the area backward instead of forward.
This assignment is about Kwame Nkrumah the pan Africanist and the question surrounding him above. Please focus on him and address the question about him above. Try not to go down rabbit holes that lead to more information then needed for this assignment. I want you to really link Kwame’s efforts to reshape Africa to the past, present, and future, these are called linkage, and it’s really fundamental to this essay. Please use the provided slide below for more information but also seek for more information from books or the internet BUT NOT CHATGPT! Directly link what is provided in the slides to Kwame and the essay as a whole. focus on his politics and how he shaped Africa and don’t dive to deep or really at all in his personal life since that is not the topic of this essay. you do not need to use sources embedded into this essay but please do check your sources to see if they are credible.
“YOU interpret current world market forces driving the area backward instead of forward.” also please address this question from your point of view and not another point of view. Please be specific in answering this question and link it back to what makes sense and is appropriate to link to this whole essay and Kwame.

Your project: to develop a modern version of the epistolary concept
Tell part of the Dracula story through some form of modern communication/media/technology, or a combination of these. For example: 
letters
graphic novel concept
Tweets
Instagram pictures
snapchat
Facebook posts
Blog/vlog
Emails
work of art
film
Use what you’re good at. If you’re an artist, you might make it a graphic novel. If you like social media, use of those. If you’re traditional, keep it truly epistolary, and write letters. There are fake facebook/instagram generators out there you can use, so you don’t have to create actual accounts. 
Choose one scene from Dracula and present a modern version of that scene. NOTE: you may not choose Chs. 1-4!
Be sure to include the perspectives of various characters. Feel free to modernize the characters to suit the modern media, if you wish.
Be creative, have fun, push the lmits of the form you use. 
Your final presentation must be uploaded to the discussion board. Use PowerPoint.
I am attaching an example of what a good project might look like. There are lots of ways to approach the project so yours may be quite different. However, things I’ll point out that are working well here: 
1. use of both text and image
2. multiple perspectives (the comments by Dracula, for example)
3. an original, but rich, telling of the events
4. Full use of the chosen media (in this case, Instagram)

I have written a mock grant proposal for my class. The paper is complete and i believe well written but I did use alot of AI and would like someone to “un” AI it. 

Reminder: please make sure the discussions in the paper is based on the points by the sources provided. IT’S FOCUSED ON THE OTHER SIDE OF EDEN, DETAILS ARE PROVIDED BELOW.

on the domestication of plants and animals. In Week 8, students will be asked to choose a food
(either the same food or a different one) to focus on for an essay due in Week 9 on the
Columbian exchange, industrial foods, GMOs, and/or food sovereignty.

-Compare two of the substances (Coca and Tabacco) discussed during in the previous week’s units. Briefly introduce the topic including the Latin name. Explain why you chose to compare those two substances. What do they have in common? How are they different? How were these substances traditionally used?
-What geographic regions are these substances found in? Discuss how humans interacted with these plants to release their psychoactive properties? (hint: Were these plants domesticated? Do they require any preparation before consuming?)
-Describe the contexts in which these substances were used. Were they consumed with other substances?
-What type of archaeological signature does use of this substance leave behind, if any? Provide evidence for at least one archaeological site for each substance where there is evidence of use in the past. If there is no archaeological evidence, you must explain why this evidence is lacking and how archaeologists might find evidence for this substance in the future.
-Do people still use these substances? If so, in what form? -Write a brief conclusion. use quotes from these articals
