As African elites we are basically agents of neocolonialism in Africa, whether we are aware of the fact or not, whether we openly admit the fact or rather choose to dance around it with self-righteous equivocations or not.
Any African who cares about their history should read this book:
Back in 1974, legendary scholar Chancellor Williams distilled his 20+ years of wisdom into 384 pages.
In this book, The Destruction of Black Civilization, he shared a simple 6-step process for discovering the truth about African History.
Here’s the breakdown:
1. Begin with The Origins of Humanity
• African history begins with the very dawn of humankind.
2. Focus on the Golden Age of Black Civilization (Old Kingdom of Kemet 3100 to 2181 BCE)
• The unification of Upper and Lower Kemet occurred
• The pyramids were built
• Significant advancements were made in mathematics, astronomy, and medicine
3. Examine the Impact of Invasions
• The Hyksos invasion of Egypt
• The spread of Islam across North Africa
• European colonization and its lasting effects
4. Study the Great Migrations
• The migrations from Kemet and their linguistic and cultural impact
• Forced migrations due to the slave trade
• Modern migrations driven by economic factors and conflict
5. Analyze the Re-emergence of African Kingdoms and Empires
The period from the 10th to the 19th centuries saw the rise of numerous powerful African states.
• The Mali Empire
• The Songhai Empire
• The Kingdom of Kongo
• The Zulu Kingdom
6. Understand Colonialism and the Fight for Independence
• The Berlin Conference and the "Scramble for Africa"
• African resistance movements
• The process of decolonization and its Challenge
