Six decades after the colonial flags were lowered and African countries gained formal independence, the continent struggles to free itself from the deep legacies of colonialism, imperialism and patriarchy. Many intellectuals, politicians, feminists and other activists, eager to contribute to Africa's liberation, have frustratingly felt like they took the wrong path. Analysed through the eyes of Afro-Feminism, this book revisits some of the fundamental preconditions needed for radical transformation. It challenges the traditional human rights paradigm and its concomitant idea of "gender equality," flagging instead, the African philosophy of Ubuntu as a serious alternative for reinvigorating African notions of social justice.
