More about the book

The book explores the ongoing challenge of integrating African perspectives into historical scholarship, questioning the dominance of Western methodologies. Divided into four parts, it presents innovative approaches to "Africanizing" history, highlights African creative expressions in their cultural contexts, re-evaluates colonialism through fresh lenses, and critiques the academic landscape of African studies. The essays aim to foster a deeper understanding of Africa's history and culture, advocating for the establishment of more educational institutions within the continent.
