The African Genius presents the ideas, social systems, religions,
moral values, arts, and metaphysics of a range of African peoples.
Basil Davidson points toward the Africa that might emerge from an
ancient civilization that was overlaid and battered by colonialism,
then torn apart by the upheaval of colonialism's dismantlement.
Davidson disputes the notion that Africa gained under colonialism
by entering the modern world. He sees, instead, an ancient order
replaced by modern dysfunction. Davidson's depiction of the
sophisticated "native genius" that has carried Africans through
centuries of change is vital to an understanding of modern Africa
as well.
