Angelina Jolie mention about Zahara when talking about Black Lives Matter movement

Angelina Jolie mention about Zahara when talking about Black Lives Matter movement.

She said, "One of the things that’s also been interesting is the education," Jolie said. "I don’t know about the schools in Uganda, but I know in the United States there’s a very big question particularly about the—my daughter is from Ethiopia, one of my children. And I have learned so much from her. She is my family, but she is an extraordinary African woman and her connection to her country, her continent, is very—it’s her own and it’s something I only stand back in awe of. But what I see in, for example, American history books and how limited they are, they don’t — they really start teaching people who are Black about their lives through the Civil Rights movement, which is such a horrible place to begin."

"I think what people really need to first understand is that Africa is not just a country," Nakate responded. "It’s actually a continent with 54 countries. I remember the history that we learnt about [in school], and it talked so much of slavery and all that. I think that that is a narrative that needs to change."
