The Research Process We Undertake
The content here is created through a process of an in-depth and comparative study with references to external trusted sources, mainly other established websites and research work of world-renowned history scholars. We recognize that most of the information on Africa has either been hidden, whitewashed, misinterpreted or ignored. This problem can largely be blamed on racism and colonialism.
In order to maintain their claimed position in the world today, racial supremacists have undermined the history of Africa and its people. That was done primarily for the colonization and enslavement of Africans, very dark chapters in African history. Therefore, we saw it better to fill in the gap by representing Africa without fear or favour. We took it as a calling to share the story of Africa with the world but from an African perspective.
Situation Analysis On Africa
The truth about our history as Africans has for a long time not been dully told to the world. All that the people know today is of a 'primitive' or 'enslaved' Africa that 'never' added anything to the world's civilization. Our magazine wishes to refute this and reveal that hidden side, showing the world the glorious past of Africa. History records as revealed by master scholars, prove that the ancient world was all-black. Then, how great was the ancient black world? How and when did we lose almost all things that earned us respect and admiration from other races?
You now realize that we must seek the truth!
From being the founders of the world's greatest civilizations; pioneering in Spirituality, Education, Writing, Medicine, Mathematics, Philosophy, Administration, Architecture e.t.c to being branded as savages. What happened? And what should be done now that we have learned a little about who we were? Well, find out the answers with us. History has never been this knowledgeable and fun, it is even inspiring.
We are committed to showing you the amazing side of Africa and its people. You will learn about the amazing cultures, African diversity, its nature-endowed features and the daily developing stories from the black world. We also draw lessons from the dark side of African history. The lessons as proposed by Nelson Mandela, South Africa's first black president, should be used to caution us from repeating the same mistakes in history.
We are also ready to work with anyone that shares our goal of making Africa and the entire globe a safer habitat for human coexistence. A habitat that will be peaceful, and filled with love and the spirit of human cohesion and development. We are further committed to following the principles laid down by our race leaders in history.
