Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

For seventeen years, Chisanga Clive stood at an African chalkboard teaching a curriculum he did not write, in a language chosen for someone else's convenience, from a syllabus that could name every river in Europe but not the one behind his own school. This book is his reckoning.Schooled, Not Educated traces how colonial schooling dismantled Africa's own universities, guilds and healing traditions - and how the classroom, more than the soldier, has kept the continent dependent long after independence. Clive names the imported psychology, the borrowed syllabuses, and the "boxed graduates" still being produced today, then sets out, chapter by chapter, what a genuinely African education would teach instead.Part history, part confession, part manifesto - a teacher's case for finally decolonising the African mind."Africa did not lack education before colonial rule." - from Chapter One
