Book Description
"This newly published book, "AFRICAN CULTURE IS NOT TO BLAME (Western Culture Is To Blame) written by Dr. P.E. Aligwekwe has a very important message both for the West and for Africa; but most particularly for the West. The book is a very audacious speaking out of a biting truth avoided or minimized by the guilty, sidetracked by the nonchalant, purposely misrepresented by the addict, or distorted by the agnostic and arrogant. The book ́s realism is an asset to knowing for certain where the source of our contemporary sexual moral decadence and the very much needed solution really lie. Learn in it something about the main causes and bases of priest/clergy sexual abuse that is nowadays the general topic of the day. Learn more about the origin and main causes of homosexuality in humans, and also about prostitution, abortion and other the main social topics of our day. Surely you will want to read this exiting book, and pass it on to whomever you care for – family, friend or colleague. Besides, you will bring its substance to the knowledge of as many members of the society as possible. The author’s previous book titled "THE CONTINUITY OF TRADITIONAL VALUES IN THE AFRICAN SOCIETY (The Igbo of Nigeria)- a book rightly qualified as a valuable tertiary institution anthropology text or reference book, published 2008, is equally available in the bookstore of the same publishers".

Book Description
In recent years, highly publicized controversies (such as the deaths of Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown) have brought racial tensions to the forefront in America. As a result of these events, accusations of racism are being hurled at white people (and other non-blacks) like socially divisive weapons of mass destruction on a frequently recurring basis. However, the resentments blacks have towards whites are not new; they've existed for decades. Thanks to social media and the 24-hour news cycle, the feelings of acrimony blacks have towards whites are now on full display. Yet, despite the racial turmoil that currently plagues the U.S., the majority of white Americans "are not" racist; they "do not" harbor any hatred or feelings of superiority towards black Americans based strictly on skin color. Furthermore, the majority of blacks "are not" (and never will be) the victims of systemic (or overt) racism. Making matters worse, black Americans are failing to take full accountability and responsibility for the many urgent problems (high crime, high teen pregnancy rates, etc.) that have infested their community because they are too busy casting out misdirected, unjustifiable accusations of racism. But if most white people aren't racist and most modern blacks aren't victims of racism, where are these accusations of racism coming from? One key fact is instrumental in the formulation of these racial dissensions: Black and white Americans don't understand the difference between racism and "culturism." If black Americans understood "culturism," they'd no longer accuse white people of being racist. If white Americans understood "culturism," they'd no longer be on the receiving end of those accusations. More importantly, black Americans would begin taking full responsibility and accountability for fixing the problems that currently plague their community (instead of shifting blame). In this groundbreaking book, Scott Hampton irrefutably explains why "culturism" is the key to ending racial tensions in the United States, healing the black community, and making America a far more peaceful, harmonious, and hospitable place to live for citizens of "all" races.

Book Description
Since the end of colonization Africa has struggled with socio-economic and political problems. These challanges have attracted wealthy donors from Western nations and organizations that have assumed the roles of helper and deliverer. While some donors have good intentions, others seek to impose their ideology of sexual liberation. These are the ideological neocolonial masters of the twenty-first century who aggressively push their agenda of radical feminism, population control, sexualisation of children, and homosexuality. The author, a native of Nigeria, shows how these donors are masterful at exploiting some of the heaviest burdens and afflictions of Africa such as maternal mortality,unplanned pregnancies, HIV/AIDS pandemic, child marriage,and persistent poverty. This exploitation has put many African nations in the vulnerable position of receiving funding tied firmly to ideological solutions that are opposed tothe cultural views and values of their people. Thus many African nations are put back into the protectorate positions of dependency as new cultural standards conceived in the West are made into core policies in African capitals. This book reveals the recolonization of Africa that is rarely talked about. Drawing from a broad array of well-sourced materials and documents, it tells the story of foreign aid with strings attached, the story of Africa targeted and recolonized by wealthy, powerful donors.

Book Description
Named one of the most important nonfiction books of the 21st century by Entertainment Weekly‚ Slate‚ Chronicle of Higher Education‚ Literary Hub, Book Riot‚ and Zora A tenth-anniversary edition of the iconic bestseller—"one of the most influential books of the past 20 years," according to the Chronicle of Higher Education—with a new preface by the author "It is in no small part thanks to Alexander's account that civil rights organizations such as Black Lives Matter have focused so much of their energy on the criminal justice system." —Adam Shatz, London Review of Books Seldom does a book have the impact of Michelle Alexander's The New Jim Crow. Since it was first published in 2010, it has been cited in judicial decisions and has been adopted in campus-wide and community-wide reads; it helped inspire the creation of the Marshall Project and the new $100 million Art for Justice Fund; it has been the winner of numerous prizes, including the prestigious NAACP Image Award; and it has spent nearly 250 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. Most important of all, it has spawned a whole generation of criminal justice reform activists and organizations motivated by Michelle Alexander's unforgettable argument that "we have not ended racial caste in America; we have merely redesigned it." As the Birmingham News proclaimed, it is "undoubtedly the most important book published in this century about the U.S." Now, ten years after it was first published, The New Press is proud to issue a tenth-anniversary edition with a new preface by Michelle Alexander that discusses the impact the book has had and the state of the criminal justice reform movement today.

Book Description
In his widely acclaimed survey, John Mbiti sheds light on the survival and prosperity of African Religion in different historical, geographical, sociological, cultural, and physical environments. He presents a constellation of African worldviews, beliefs in God, use of symbols, valued traditions, and practices that have taken root with African peoples throughout the vast continent. Mbiti’s accessible writing style sympathetically portrays how African Religion manifests itself in ritual, festival, healing, the human life cycle, and interplay with the mystical and invisible world. The account embraces foundational traditions, while touching on elements that spawn transitions, including migration, the spread of Christianity and Islam, political-economic development, and modern communication. This popular introduction leaves readers with informed knowledge of the riches of African heritage.
Author: Richard Dowden Publisher: PublicAffairs ISBN: 0786741422 Category : History Languages : en Pages : 593
Book Description
After a lifetime's close observation of the continent, one of the world's finest Africa correspondents has penned a landmark book on life and death in modern Africa. It takes a guide as observant, experienced, and patient as Richard Dowden to reveal its truths. Dowden combines a novelist's gift for atmosphere with the scholar's grasp of historical change as he spins tales of cults and commerce in Senegal and traditional spirituality in Sierra Leone; analyzes the impact of oil and the internet on Nigeria and aid on Sudan; and examines what has gone so badly wrong in Zimbabwe, Rwanda, Burundi, and the Congo. Dowden's master work is an attempt to explain why Africa is the way it is, and enables its readers to see and understand this miraculous continent as a place of inspiration and tremendous humanity.
