Publisher's Synopsis
It is not unusual for Continental and Diaspora Africans to feel Confused and Effaced Whenever they read up on the History of Africa and her People. Non Africans tell me that they feel as if they are reading an incomplete story...
This Synoptic History of Africa from Creation to date, decodes the Dominions' Denials, Silences and outright Erasures of Africans from their Continent which causes this Effacement and incompleteness.
The Book Challenges the Bantuist Migratory Theory, Interrogates the Name of the Continent, Exposes Its People and their Contributions to Civilisation by unveiling the various personalities of Ancient Africa, Iberia, Israel and Arabia at large, as well as the Relationship of these Nations with each other and how they have contributed to Today's African People.The Book further Narrates African Culture, Philosophy and ubuNtu Belief System.
Colonialism, its drivers, impact and Legacy on Africa is discussed and South African History is narrated more comprehensively from the 1600s as an example of the evolution of Countries in Africa secondary to this Imperialism.
The Author Concludes the book with some suggestions on How Africa can begin to Heal herself, Assert herself in the 4IR and beyond, whilst, Reclaiming her Position amongst the World's Nations as an Equal.
