Focusing on the impact of racial stereotyping, this book presents a passionate African perspective against the portrayal of people of African descent by influential white scholars. It critiques media practices that perpetuate racist ideas, especially in the context of African current events. The author exposes how respected American intellectuals often disguise racist ideologies within seemingly fair discussions. By challenging these narratives, the book aims to reshape the understanding of 'race' and highlight the detrimental effects of racism on scholarly work.
