By looking at violence and the end(s) of colonialism, we will not only be interested in revisiting colonial and nationalist violence in Africa, but also the distinctiveness of Africa’s contemporary predicament with regards to the criminality, corruption, and chaos that seem to have become permanent in Africa. For when one looks objectively at Africa, one is at the heart of discussions pertaining to the (non) existence or literally the manufacture of “lesser persons” by means of physical, psychological and symbolic violence.
