Here’s one, though of a different sort. Five or ten years ago, I heard about an African film festival held in Africa. I immediately realized I’d been assuming things were much worse in Africa than they really were.
Since then, I’ve heard various pushbacks against the idea that Africa is a continent of disaster.

Presumably, things are different in different parts of Africa.
Yes, thinking that Africa is just one thing is part of the problem.
It does seem to have more bigger messes than the other continents, but the awful seems to be pretty restricted in area.
