Framing the Famine

With millions in Africa facing renewed famine, images of Africans as helpless victims continue to dominate the media. In this programme, Oxfam questions the effect that this constant diet of negative images has on the way Africa and black people are perceived. Jon Snow , Michael Buerk , Lenny Henry and Tony Robinson are among those who share their views.
