Description

Before his arrival as the Washington Post correspondent in Africa, Richburg had assumed that Africa's troubles were the legacy of colonialism and the Cold War, and that if the African nations were given a level playing field, they too would take their place on the escalator to prosperity that had lifted so many other formerly backward nations. Before his arrival as the Washington Post correspondent in Africa, Keith Richburg had assumed that Africa's troubles were the legacy of colonialism and the Cold War. But what he finds instead is senseless cruelty and repressive dictators, which have not emerged from the sins of the West but are homegrown. Inhumanity in Africa wears a black face. Are these really my people? Richburg wonders. Am I truly an African American? Out of America is a transformative personal journey, and once you see the world through Richburg's eyes, you'll never think of Africa, America, or African Americans in the same way again.
