*SHORTLISTED FOR THE NERO BOOK AWARDS 2024 AND THE BRITISH BOOK AWARDS 2025*
*An instant Sunday Times bestseller, Radio 4 Book of the Week and Guardian Best Summer Read*
Selected as a book to look out for by the Guardian and The Rest is Politics
Everyone is originally from Africa, and this book is therefore for everyone.
For too long, Africa's history has been dominated by western narratives of slavery and colonialism, or simply ignored. Now, Zeinab Badawi sets the record straight.
In this fascinating book, Badawi guides us through Africa's spectacular history - from the origins of humanity, through ancient civilisations and medieval empires, to the miseries of conquest and the elation of independence. Visiting more than thirty African countries to interview countless historians, anthropologists, archaeologists and local storytellers, Badawi weaves together a gripping new history of the oldest inhabited continent on the planet, told through the voices of Africans themselves.
