I have to say that the African pride is high. Watching the World Cup Concert and the opening ceremonies, seeing all the people so pumped, it def seems that this is not just South Africa's WC but Africa's.
However, I would say that I am a bit disappointed with the African Americans here in the States. This is a chance for guys like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and black celebrities like Kanye West to really be involved and express black pride. Considering that Africa is where it all began, this is a great moment since this is basically the first major global event held in Africa (as far as I know).
