minus-squarerainpizza@lemmygrad.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up10·6 months agoThere might be some books of your interest in this hexbear bulletin: https://bulletins.hexbear.net/posts/readinglist/ These books focus on general history(citing some because the list is long): Aid to Africa: Redeemer or Coloniser? by Samir Amin et al (2009). Tomorrow’s Battlefield : U.S. Proxy Wars and Secret Ops in Africa by Nick Turse (2015). How Africa Developed Europe by Nkwazi Nkuzi Mhango (2018).

Economic and Monetary Sovereignty in 21st Century Africa by Maha Ben Gadha (2022). These books focus on left-wing movements: Henry Sylvester Williams and the Origins of the Pan-African Movement, 1869-1911 by Hollis Lynch (1976). Fevers, Feuds, and Diamonds: Ebola and the Ravages of History by Paul Farmer (2020).
