Synopsis

This book tells a wholesome story about the African continent, (the 2nd largest continent in the world ), it's people, culture; and it's enormous natural resources and minerals as never been presented to the world audience by the western media . It's enormous natural resources unrivaled anywhere on earth that benefited mostly the West for their development but under reported by the media who mostly portray a skewered picture of a needy, poor and helpless image of a people . It's about a continent long marginalized socially, economically and long misunderstood for no apparent reason while it's vast riches of natural resources are exploited . It shows the various life's metamorphoses Africans have experienced beginning with slavery, colonialism and neocolonialism . It exposes the upsurge of arms proliferation on the continent and illegal European toxic waste dumping . It brought attention to the billions of dollars stored in various Western banks with little chances of being repatriated to Africa . There is also the story of Africa's involvement in the 1st and 2nd World wars . Africa's role in World development has long been under reported and this book is ready the record straight .
