Ever since the age of negritude and African Personality, now showing their age, the search for ideas that are genuinely new produced by the brains of our “great” intellectuals is in vain. Our vocabulary and our ideas come from elsewhere. Our professors, engineers, and economists are content to simply add color—for often they only things they brought back with them from the European universities that produced them are their degrees and velvety adjectives and superlatives!
