Overview

Far from answering only one question, this book responds to an urgent need. In a global context marked by the persistence of stereotypes inherited from centuries of dominating ideologies, the question of Africa's place in universal history remains central. Moreover, the question of the way Africans represent themselves appears as a decisive stake for the future of the continent. The book does not proceed from a simple academic exercise nor from a polemical will. It was born from a strong pedagogical moment: the question of a student, who is also African, asking if Africans are ''cursed''. Its originality lies in its method. The author does not content himself with asserting. He demonstrates. At a time when social networks amplify simplifying narratives, this book recalls an essential truth: history is not a weapon of condemnation, but an instrument of understanding. The alleged curse of the Black Man, accurately dismantled in these pages, appears for what it is: an ideological construction. Faced with it, the author opposes the patience of research, the solidity of the sources and the coherence of the analysis.
