Produktbeschreibung

American racism traps Blacks A- even in Africa. Prof. Dennis chronicles the compulsive and repetitious nature of racism and its destructive effects on peoples and societies, Dr. DennisA's observations of the twists of irony and misplaced pride on all sides will provoke a wry smile a well as dismay.During the 1990s, Liberia descended into civil war and anarchy. African-Liberian rebel groups roamed the countryside randomly killing as they vied for power. Doe was killed by a segment of these rebel groups and warlord Charles Taylor eventually became president in 1997. In 2003, Taylor was deposed by rebel groups and is now on trial at The Hague for war crimes. Despite Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf'A's democratic election in 2005, Liberia remains in ruins as a classic failed state in Africa. The obvious question is: Why did the Negro experiment planted in Africa in 1822 fail so miserably?A true African-American, Dr. Dennis writes from a broad historical and social perspective having lived in an African tribe, as a "e;Negro"e; in the 1950s and since the Civil Rights Movement as a "e;black man in America,"e; having moved in international diplomatic circles and having worked as a member of the American academic elite.
