the third world
Third World - countries with economies largely based on agriculture and characterized by low standards of living, high rates of population growth, and general economic and technological dependence upon wealthier industrial nations. A very ethnocentric way of referring to other cultures because it ranks cultures below those of the "First World" like Europe, Japan, Canada, and the United States.
This is a question i like to ask people in Kenya definetly a third world country.
I love to challenge our concepts of things.
So here is the question.
If I(Dana Quijote) go to Kenya and help them launch a satellite. A very small satellite the size of a cell phone.Broadcasting a message of peace in all languages. Can we still consider Kenya a third world country. Then an ancillary question what will the reaction of the people(Kenyans) be.
Since I don't want to contaminate your answers I'll put my answer in another blog.
