This lecture is part of the 2009–2010 Weldon J. Taylor Executive Lecture Series and is free and open to the public. Why haven't the poorest Africans been able to prosper in the twenty-first century? Celebrated and world-renowned economist Dr. Ayittey thinks the answer is obvious: Africa is poor because it is not free. Because colonial legacies and globalization present a myriad of difficulties to the continent today, Dr. Ayittey boldly proposes a new path for Africa—to modernize indigenous traditions of free enterprise, free markets, and free trade. Dr. Ayittey is the Distinguished Economist in Residence at American University, and founder of the Free Africa Foundation in Washington DC, which serves as a catalyst for reform in Africa. Educated in Ghana and Canada, his publications focus on the relationship between economic development, security, and freedom in Africa. He has published five books on Africa, including Africa Betrayed, which won the 1993 H.L. Mencken Award for "Best Book for 1992."

Who would ever suspect that a tiny little mouse could wear out an energetic young boy? The Boy gets his irrepressible furry guest a cookie, and that starts a cascade of comical catastrophes…and when Mouse wants to clean up his own messes, he leaves behind an even bigger mess than when he started. It’s a joyful and witty roller coaster of side-splitting situations as Mouse’s chaos-causing antics just can’t be stopped – from figure skating on scrub brushes to wrestling boa constrictors. Adults and children alike won’t want the fun and follies to end! After a long day of mishaps and misadventures, Mouse is thirsty -- and as the exasperated Boy goes to get him some milk, we all wait for the line we know is coming – “Could I have a cookie?"
