Endo-Racialism (PB) (2011)

Any discerning traveller on a world-wide journey would readily observe that universally blacks (Africans) are considered inferior to other races. Though there is a notional acceptance of equality, there is also a prevalent belief that Africa and its scattered off-spring were mired in darkness until they were civilised by their enslavers and colonisers; and just maybe they can be socially mobile on learning the ways of their conquerors. This book seeks to explain, in detail, the origin and development of this global racialist belief system. The vital question being addressed is this: are black people, in general, unknowingly complicit in their subjugation by internalising the colonialisers' racialism which implicitly holds fast to Africans as natural vassals? The book introduces the important concept of ENDO-RACIALISM: this being the notion that black people have internalised European racialist ideas of African inferiority - giving rise to a sense of self-hate, a desire to ape, and to look like their colonisers; even accepting the colonisers history as their own. The core issue, here, is that the self-belief of African inferiority, endo-racialism, is a hindrance to their emancipation from the ascribed lowly status.
