Commando, as Retold by a 9 Year Old Tanzanian
 
 
In an effort to portray Africa as a place other than a war-torn, AIDS-ridden hellhole, the Mama Hope movement has released a video of a 9 year old Tanzanian named Alex. In the heartwarming video, Alex retells the story of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Commando with great detail.

The Mama Hope movement hopes to re-humanize Africa and look at the positive change that’s happening throughout the entire continent, and to curtail the negative portrayal of Africa as someplace tragic and oppressive.
