Terminal Africa

This book is about Africa's ethnic realities, and more particularly their taxing southern and South African implications and consequences. The author is a clinical psychologist. He made a life-long study of black African culture and mythology, especially that of the Zulu. His research and practical experience among black Africans convinced him that ethnicity and its deep-seated rivalry are critical in an understanding of the varied and often opposing African futures, particularly in their southern African context against a socio-political background of brewing uncertainty and conflict, violence and crime. Racism, violence and genocide are still Africa's worst dividers and the killers of its people. If Africa fails to overcome its ethnic prejudices and conflicts across the barriers of race, colour and creed, the consequences could indeed be devastating.
