Decolonization

“Let African Christians be Christian Africans.”

“The first representations of Africans were made by others. So my cinema consists of trying to break down this false image.”

“Les peuples africains ont un besoin vital de leur propre image.”

““No Congolese will ever forget that independence was won in struggle.””

“My policy is to stand for the rights and privileges of the whole Maori race as embodied in the Treaty of Waitangi…”

“The faith can be meaningful only when Christ is encountered as speaking and acting authentically, when he is heard in the African languages.”

“Décoloniser la philosophie, c'est cesser de croire qu'il existe des lieux où la philosophie éclot.”

“I call African philosophy a set of texts: the set, precisely, of texts written by Africans and described by their authors themselves as ‘philosophical’.”
