Beginning with the kingdoms of the Congo in the 14th and 15th
centuries, and their histories, this volume analyzes the influence
and pressures of the Portugese, the Catholic Church, and slave
traders on these blossoming African states. Included are reports by
Portugese and English discoverers and missionaries, such as
Livingston and Stanley, as well as documents about the colonial
history of the Belgian Congo, Angola, and Rhodesia/Zimbabwe, which
centuries later mirrorred the kingdoms of Zimbabwe and the
Mwanamutapa. Texts on the post-colonial period include the writings
of Patrice Lumumba. The South African section contains documents
about native people and the first Dutch settlement in the
seventeenth century, including the introduction of slavery;
conflicts between settlers and British missionaries as well as with
the native states; white conquest; Boer history and myths; British
colonial policy; the discovery of diamonds and gold; and apartheid.
The new political era includes the early writings of Nelson
Mandela.
