IShowSpeed wraps up Africa tour highlighting the continent’s cultural diversity

DAKAR, Senegal (AP) — The American streamer and YouTuber IShowSpeed is on the final leg of a 28-day tour of Africa aimed at showcasing the continent’s cultural diversity, which is often overshadowed by images of poverty and violence.

“I’ve done so many incredible things in my life,” he said during a stop in Botswana. “But this trip is different. It opened my eyes. Africa is not what I thought.”

The 20-nation tour across southern, eastern and North Africa began in Angola in late December.
