A History of Modern Africa: 1800 to the Present (2nd ed. 2012)[Blackwell Concise History of the Modern World]

Updated and revised to emphasise long-term perspectives on current issues facing the continent, the new 2nd Edition of A History of Modern Africa recounts the full breadth of Africa's political, economic, and social history over the past two centuries.

A History of Modern Africa explores two centuries of the continent’s political, economic, and social history. This thorough yet accessible text help readers to understand key concepts, recognize significant themes, and identify the processes that shaped the modern history of Africa.

Emphasis is placed on the consequences of colonial rule, and the links between the precolonial and postcolonial eras. Author Richard Reid, a prominent scholar and historian on the subject, argues that Africa’s struggle for economic and political stability in the nineteenth century escalated and intensified through the twentieth century, the effects of which are still felt in the present day. 

The new third edition offers substantial updates and revisions that consider recent events and historiography. Greater emphasis is placed on African agency, particularly during the colonial period, and the importance of the long-term militarization of African political culture. Discussions of the postcolonial period have been updated to reflect recent developments, including those in North Africa. Adopting a long-term approach to current African issues, this text: 

Explores the legacies of the nineteenth century and the colonial period in the context of the contemporary era

Highlights the role of nineteenth century and long-term internal dynamics in Africa’s modern challenges

Combines recent scholarship with concise and effective narrative

Features maps, illustrations, expanded references, and comprehensive endnotes

A History of Modern Africa: 1800 to the Present, 3rd Edition is an excellent introduction to the subject for undergraduate students in relevant courses, and for general readers with interest in modern African history and current affairs.

The Boondocks is a rich, multilayered comic strip that offers a frank yet often funny look at race in America. It starts with a simple premise: Two young boys, Riley and Huey, move from inner-city Chicago to live with their grandfather in the suburbs.

The tension increases, however, because the two boys are African-Americans now compelled to adapt to a white suburban world. They must take all they've learned in the "hood" and apply it to life in the 'burbs. Superbly illustrated, The Boondocks has stirred controversy, attracted widespread media coverage, and won readers who've applauded McGruder's unapologetic and humorous approach to race.

In this second collection of Boondocks cartoons, readers can get another look at this innovative strip.

My account and the accounts of a group of my friends who organize donation campaigns to help their families have been blocked for no known reason

It is clear that the Tumblr platform is against the Palestinians’ livelihood and achieving a better future

Everyone is against the Palestinians from living

But despite this, we will try to live and achieve a better future

Hello, I am Hassan from Gaza, Palestine, and my big brother Muhammad needs psychological treatment because he suffers from psychological stress. We live with my mother and we do not have ****. My sister is a nurse and needs to travel to complete her studies. Since 200 days of devastating war, I and my family of 6 people are living in a nightmare because we cannot escape from war. We suffer from fear, hunger and cold. My family and I want to evacuate Gaza so we can have a chance to survive and start our lives somewhere safer than here, but evacuation travel fees through the Rafah crossing from Gaza to Egypt cost thousands of dollars per person crossing the border (knowing that the financial burden is huge!!). Here we are dying, starving every day, living in tents and under bombing. Please help me.

It's really hard to explain to people that one of my main hobbies is painting my nails to match books I read (and it's even harder to explain how time consuming and challenging it can be)

I am Nadi Hamad from Gaza, I am 25 years old, and my house, my dream, my loved ones, and my life have been destroyed, and because I only have a tent without a cover and clothes, and I have a job as a men’s barber, and people do not have money to shave, and I help them with a free shave, and I want you to support me in being able to help diamonds and children get a free shave, and thank you to everyone who helps me.

I shave for the sad children of Gaza who have tasted fear, hunger and destruction, and shave for them free of charge and draw a beautiful smile on their faces and make them forget the deadly pain. I want you to support me and thank you.

The children of Gaza need help to make them happy and put a smile on their faces. Help me
