An African History of Africa
- Finally here! Zeinab Badawi’s An African History of Africa is a corrective as for too long, Africa’s history has been dominated by Western narratives of slavery and colonialism, or simply ignored. Now, Zeinab Badawi has set the record straight. Ambitious in scope and refreshing in perspective, the book stretches from the origins of Homo sapiens in East Africa through to the end of apartheid in South Africa. It is informed by interviews Badawi conducted with African scholars and cultural custodians, whose expertise, observations, and wisdom are threaded through the book.
