George explores "former" French colonies in Africa, questioning the quality of independence when it's gifted conditionally, not won by revolution. Is all freedom equal?

When is a breakup not a breakup? When your ex controls every aspect of your life. After walking through the freedom struggles of Ghana and the Congo in previous episodes, George turns his attention towards the “former” French colonies of West and Central Africa. What happens when freedom is gifted conditionally, not won through revolution? Is all independence created equal?
