Decolonizing African Studies
Knowledge Production, Agency, and Voice
This book examines the most significant aspects of decolonization and decoloniality, the voices that articulate them, and how they are represented in the disciplines. From the anticolonial intellectual insurgency to the contemporary conception of Afro-futurism, the book argues that alternative thought processes are informed by radical and contentious ideas. The knowledge produced attacks Western hegemonic thought traditions that insist on shaping the African trajectory in Western-universalist terms. Although not always successful, African alternative voices rebel against the attempts to reduce African academics and universities to a mere conduit for inculcating Western knowledge, values, and worldviews.
