The fact that Reagan made these racist comments while complaining about African delegates celebrating China’s accession to the UN gives it a crazy wheels-within-wheels resonance with today’s China-Africa and today’s Republican Party bit.ly/2yrCUtG

News of the day, the first #freetradeagreement between #China and an #African country was signed yesterday in Beijing. It actually sounds more like a preferential trade agreement in some places - but the big question is... What will it mean in practice?
