GenBuhari: You need to get educated, _fucktard. In this age of Information, ignorance is a choice. I have every single book and documentary I am recommending.

Today, the dictator Amin is reviled as the 'Butcher of Uganda', while the socialist Nyerere is revered as the 'Founding Father of Tanzania.' Nyerere's army forced Amin and his family into exile in 1979, ending Idi Amin's blood soaked regime. In SONS OF AFRICA, the two leaders' sons attempt to climb Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest mountain, on a journey of peace and reconciliation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyaTWKv44Hs http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3324803-historical-dictionary-of-civil-wars-in-africa Historical Dictionary of Civil Wars in Africa (Historical Dictionaries of War, Revolution, and Civil Unrest) by Arnold Guy, Guy Arnold [img]http://pxhst.co/avaxhome/0f/05/000b050f.jpeg[/img] Ever since the end of World War II, and even more so since 1960, when seventeen African colonies became independent of colonial rule, the African continent has been ravaged by a series of wars. These wars have ranged from liberation struggles against former colonial powers to power struggles between different factions in the aftermath of independence. They have ranged from border wars between newly independent states to civil wars between ethnic groups. As with many conflicts, outside forces were drawn into these wars, and major powers outside the continent intervened on one side or the other for a variety of reasons: political ideology, Cold War considerations, ethnic alignments, and stemming the flow of violence. Whether referring to Algeria's struggle for independence from French colonial rule, Nigeria's internal struggles to achieve a balanced state after the British departure, the Rwandan genocide of 1994, or the current ethnic cleansing in Darfur, the second edition of the Historical Dictionary of Civil Wars in Africa covers all of the wars that have occurred in Africa since independence. This is done through a chronology broken down by country, a list of acronyms and abbreviations, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and cross-referenced dictionary entries covering the wars, conflicts, major political and military figures, child soldiers, mercenaries, and blood diamonds https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/20726932-where-the-air-is-sweet Where the Air Is Sweet by Tasneem Jamal [img]http://pxhst.co/avaxhome/dd/37/003037dd.jpeg[/img] An epic family saga that charts three generations of an Indian family in Uganda In 1972, dictator Idi Amin expelled 80,000 South Asians from Uganda. Though many had lived in East Africa for generations, they were forced to flee in ninety days as their country descended into a surreal vortex of chaos and murder. Spanning the years between 1921 and 1975, Where the Air Is Sweet tells the story of Raju, a young Indian man drawn to Africa by the human impulse to seek a better life, and three generations of his family, who carve a life for themselves in a racially stratified colonial and post-colonial society. Where the Air Is Sweet is the story of a family: their loves, their griefs and, finally, their sudden expulsion at the hands of one of the world's most terrifying tyrants. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/550133.Unspeakable_Truths Unspeakable Truths: Confronting State Terror and Atrocity by by Priscilla B. Hayner [img]http://pxhst.co/avaxhome/9d/e6/0031e69d.jpeg[/img] This book is a profound exploration of truth commissions around the world, and the anguish, injustice, and the legacy of hate they are meant to absolve. Hayner examines twenty major truth commissions established around the world paying special attention to South Africa, El Salvador, Argentina, Chile, and Guatemala. |
