Books:“The Hearts of Darkness, How White Writers Created The Racist Image of Africa,” (Black Star Books, 2003, ISBN 0-9740039-0-5 $12) an exploration into Western media’s historical demonization of Africa over the last several centuries – from Herodotus’ “The Histories,” the journals of the so-called explorers such as Samuel Baker, and the 20th century reportage by journalists with American news publications, including Newsweek, Time magazine and The New York Times. The book looks into the harmful consequences of the racist depictions of Africans, such as condoning the enslavement and colonization of Black people, genocide, contempt, hatred and racism towards Africans and people of African descent globally. The book also examines the inferiority complex and self-hatred that some Black people suffer as a result of bombardment by negative media images. The book contains intellectual weapons, in the form of documentary proof of deliberate concerted racist depictions of Africans by publications such as The New York times, with which Pan-Africanists –and every level-headed person—can counter the continuing racist representations of Black people in Western media. The book has sold out five print runs and is in its sixth printing. visit www.theheartsofdarkness.com for more information |
