    Spanning from 1945 to 1975, countless independence movements have changed societies across the globe, led by leaders and organizations who all yearned for better. The “Declaration Against Colonialism,” adopted by the United Nations, took a firm stand on the demise of colonialism. The document petitioned for a definite end to colonialism and encouraged self-determination, stating that all human beings have a right to their own societal and political choices. Such a statement coming from an organization comprised and backed by countless nations surely stands its ground. The United Nations, supporting the end of colonialism, inspired countries to strive for freedom through the organizations obvious power. It also displayed the end of a colonial era, seeing as though many colony-yielding nations were members of the UN. (Doc 1). Ho Chi Minh, Vietnamese nationalist, too felt the need for freedom. Minch expressed the Vietnamese’s determination to end French colonization in their country. Minch made it clear that violence would be condoned and encouraged to win this battle. Ho Chi Minch embodied Vietnams’ fighting will for a separation and willingness to shed blood in the process. (Doc 2). In a similar suit, Jomo Kenyatta of Kenya shared his hate for colonialism and his approval of violence. He claims that Kenya belongs…

    At no point before 1957 were the citizens of the Sub-Saharan Africa region considered to be equal to their supreme Caucasian counterparts. It was especially hard because there was a strong British and French influence and most of the colonies were controlled by one of the two. The attitudes of the citizens began to change when Ghana received its independence from British rule in 1857. The first example of this new found equality came when Queen Elizabeth II came to visit Ghana. “The citizens erected huge side-by-side posters of the queen and their new leader, Nkrumah. This public exposure showed the new beginnings that were starting to transform the region. Kwame Nkrumah became the poster child for this new move of independence and he is responsible for inspiring other prominent leaders to lead their countries into independence in a peaceful way. However, all the countries in the region did not follow his peaceful ways specifically Kenya. They were not able to experience the new found equality because they were occupied by the constant friction between the white settlers and these settlers saw the Africans that lived there “traitorous”.…

    For many American students, bloody conflicts in Africa seem so far away, so impersonal and contrary to their own experiences that they have trouble connecting to the people whose lives are affected or to the larger issues of the arms trade, blood diamonds, corruption, poverty or refugees. The Bite of the Mango personalizes the horrors of Sierra Leone's experiences with civil conflict through the actual experiences of a 12 year old girl who suffered greatly yet overcame many hardships to make a new life for herself in Canada.…

    I start my journey of my trip through the kingdoms and city-states of Africa today. I start out in Great Zaimbabwe in Southern Africa. Great Zimbabwe, the ruined city near Lake Mutirikwe and the town of Masvingo, close to the Chimanimani Mountains, along with the Chipinge District. Great Zimbabwe was seen as a place was seen as an important symbol of achievement for Africans, and regaining the history was a major aim for those seeking a majority rule. In 1980, the internationally recognized independent country was renamed for the site, and its famous soapstone bird carvings were retained from the Rhodesian flag and Coat of Arms as a national symbol and depicted in the new Zimbabwean flag. Later in 1980 it officially became the modern state it is today. I also learned that in 1350, Great Zimbabwe was a center for gold trade. Local people told me that people from across the southern Africa brought gold to the Great Zimbabwe. The city didn’t really have a social structure, it was just classes of rich and poor…

    The Challenge for Africa

    • 1734 Words
    • 7 Pages

    In 1993 Paul Johnson wrote an article titled “Colonialism’s Back-and Not a Moment too Soon.” In this article, he argued that colonialism was a good thing for Africa. He believed Africa was in need of foreign powers to intervene and govern the land. He said that the governments of different African nations were crumbling and the people were uncivilized. However, Johnson failed to recognize the historical legacy of colonialism in Africa, and all that was negatively affected by it such as the people, traditions, and the land. His biased argument drove his focus to overlook the greater violence and seemed to put a positive light on colonialism. Africa suffered, and still does today due to the nature of violent and exploitative colonialism. There were political, economical, environmental implications that affect areas of Africa still today. It is of much importance to talk about the significance of colonialism of Africa and how it has been negatively affected by it.…
