Africa and the West (eBook, ePUB)

A History and Reparations

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The rise of Western powers to global dominance is understood without excluding the relationship of Western Europe and the Americas with Africa between the 1400s and late 1800s. The industrial revolution in the 18th and 19th centuries Europe rests significantly on the labour, intellect and overall industry of Africans. The forced migration of about 12 million Africans to three different continents had come to shape the world as it presently is. Its legacy mostly remained a striving one of human acknowledgment, historical realities, equal rights and justice. The acknowledgment of governments of this epic history and its profits and losses to the parties involved can shape public policy of a remarkable reparation of the pernicious outcomes of the politics of race.

Autorenporträt

Odi Arinze Robert Moghalu was born in the besieged breakaway republic of Biafra in 1967 in a post-pogrom, blockade induced famine and vicious war that cost 2 million Biafra lives, the worst in Africa's multifarious twentieth century conflicts in scale and severity. Odi's fortunate survival with post-war family and community support helped his growth and development but this epic continued to stir inquisition into his people's identity. This book - Igbo-Israel - became the outcome that quest. Mr. Moghalu worked in Nigeria as a human rights activist and journalist and in the United States as an educator in California.
