Book excerpt: Certain questions emerge from Black Africa's ancient and modern history: How did the various races evolve from an original African race? Were ancient Nubia and ancient Egypt the first neighbouring black African nations? How did the slave trade, colonialism and neo-colonialism contribute to the economic and technological advancement of Europe and America? Did a US president order the assassination of Patrice Lumumba, the first Prime Minister of the Congo? Was the HIV/AIDS epidemic caused by pre-independence vaccination campaigns? Why are Africa's mineral resources falling into the hands of greedy gangster politicians and warlords? Is the poor state of Africa's health solely due to a failure of leadership? Within the confines of this compact history of Africa, the author simply tells it as he sees it.
