BRITAIN'S COLONIAL REPORT CARD

Did Britain modernize Africa - or exploit it?

Did colonialism build nations, or create the foundations of modern instability?

Why do the borders, languages, religions, educational systems and economies of modern Africa still carry the fingerprints of empire?

In Britain's Colonial Report Card, Frederick Amakom delivers a bold, balanced and deeply thought-provoking examination of the British colonial legacy in Africa.

This book goes beyond emotional slogans and simplistic narratives to investigate one of the most important historical relationships in the modern world. Through political, economic, cultural, psychological and spiritual analysis, Amakom explores what Britain met in Africa, what it changed, what it built, what it destroyed and what still remains today.

Inside this book, you will discover:

• The truth about Africa before colonialism
• How Britain conquered and ruled African territories
• The real purpose of indirect rule and divide-and-rule politics
• How colonialism reshaped African economies
• The spread of Christianity, English education and Western culture

• The origins of many modern African political and ethnic tensions
• The rise of African nationalism and independence movements
• Neo-colonialism and Britain's influence in Africa today
