Answer:

The advantages: ethnic diversity provides an opportunity for poverty reduction since the different cultures can influence how poverty can be thought about differently. Disadvantages: the issue of racism has been going on for decades. Africa is mainly composed of Black Society, and ethnic diversity in Africa may be a problem because some people in Africa may not like the Black Society. One of the advantages of colonialism is the development of Africa in terms of technology. Another benefit was the imparting of the education to the general audience. One of the disadvantages was that the Africans enslaved for labor work, and another penalty was that a lot of the wealth of Africa was stolen.
