“Right-wing extremism is only the tip of the racist iceberg, which would melt without support in society. Federal German society is entangled in racist discourse. This manifests itself particularly clearly in the dominant images of Africa in West German society, in which colonial perspectives on Africa and Africans continue to have an almost unbroken effect to this day. Theoretical discussions of historical backgrounds and current manifestations of racism are complemented in this anthology by analyses of images of Africa in the media, films, science, fiction, museums and schools. Policy actors and scholars provide insight into Africa-related policy approaches.” (blurb)
