The African Narrative on Sovereignty and Technological Independence William Jackson MAT, Chancellor, Minister, CEO My Quest To Teach
Jackson provides a perspective of exploring the necessity of managing and guiding the African Narrative of Sovereignty and technological independence to ensure a prosperous, self-determined future for the African continent as a SuperPower.
The coming of WordCamp Eket 2026, WordCamp Nairobi 2026, WordCamp Johannesburg 2026 and WordCamp Jinja 2026. Synthesizing the philosophies of notable Africans like Ngũgĩ wa Thiong’o, Chinua Achebe and Wole Soyinka, how Jackson admires and continues
to learn from these historic leaders. Jackson has read multiple books, articles and engaged in YouTube videos from his literature mentors.
Emphasizes that reclaiming cultural storytelling and applying AI and VR tools to archive and safeguard is essential to empowering
the African mind.
Supporting African WordCamp Conferences across central Africa with writings and when possible monetary sponsorships. Jackson understands the value to Africa its growing youthful population and integration of technological innovation and creativity.
Since 2016 Jackson has sponsored over 600 youth, teens and young adults to technology camps, workshops, and conferences.
A teacher of 3 decades there is an importance to support “home” because his heritage is Africa.
A DNA tracing of heritage, Jackson has learned his people are from Nigeria, Togo, Senegal, and Cameroon. He values and supports his past historical lineage and takes a serious stake in the development of continental sharing of trade, commerce, education and business ownership.
Achebe has historically stated that, “until the lion has his own writers, historians, narrators (and now digital creators), the history of the hunt
will go to the hunters.” That the narrative has been influenced European false claims of dominance European slavery of Africa.
Modern innovations including artificial intelligence and digital infrastructure, ecosystems and immersive environments are
presented as vital tools for economic empowerment and regional collaboration. Jackson passionately shares that controlling both
their personal data and their historical narratives, Africans can reinvest their talents into local, national and continental communities.
Ultimately, Jackson’s message is a call for entrepreneurs and educators to unify, using modern tools of 4IR to reinforce Africa’s
status as a global leader in trade, commerce and intellect. Using the past movie genre of “Black Panther” as a foundation of African
dominance and inspiration for those in the African Diaspora.
Dr. Kai Fu Lee has stated that, “data is the new oil, (Clive Humby)” and just as importantly, “data is the new gold,” (Neelie Kroes, former
Vice-President of the European Commission).
Overcoming historical European biases and controls requires that Africans become the primary authors of their own history and the owners
of their digital resources and narratives. Works writers like Jackson are important to share concepts, ideologies and the historical
accomplishments of the past to build for a future of Africa. Being a Superpower is strategic, aligned with historical evidence and
looking past the false narratives created colonists that are still working to dominate a people, a continent and 55 nations.
