His analysis of African history demonstrates how peoples have been forced into looking at their own histories through a shattered mirror, deliberately and forcefully crushed so as to render the exercise impossible. But, Depelchin says, history could be written in a way that would help break the mould and free it from being hostage, consciously and unconsciously, to European and US historical intellectual frameworks. Reclaiming African history enables a reconnection to humanity - not just for the sake of Africa, but for the sake of those who did everything to bury African history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pambazuka Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47603017220247,"sku":"9781906387983","price":1652.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781906387983.webp?v=1775013905","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/reclaiming-african-history-9781906387983","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
