I then had to find out after the documentary why the European Union did not send Africa its surplus of food, as the EU pays farmers money to grow too much food, to keep food prices down. I found out that African governments do not want our free food. They find it more important that their citizens grow their own food to get out of poverty themselves, than to accept hand-outs.
Also that some places are corrupt, with the government robbing money off its people, like millions of dollars.
