L'Afrique est le berceau de l'humanité, et pourtant peu de pans de son histoire, ancienne comme moderne, sont bien connus. Son passé est composé de captivants récits de reines guerrières, de rois, de chefs, de prêtres et de prêtresses, de puissantes civilisations qui se sont épanouies sur les berges de fleuves ou dans l'ombre de montagnes sacrées.

They came on foot through the cane, slipping away from plantations whose owners counted them as property and nothing more. Some had crossed the ocean in chains and still carried the names of African towns in their mouths. Others had been born on the island and knew only the cane, the whip, and the work that killed a grown person in a handful of years.
