Dr Foluke Adebisi<p>This <a href="https://c.im/tags/newblogpost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>newblogpost</span></a> is a reflection on the nature and state of African history, a quiz and a reading list.

Dr Foluke Adebisi<p>In this <a href="https://c.im/tags/newblogpost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>newblogpost</span></a>, I examine the origins and meanings of the word "decolonisation."

What has it been used to mean?<br><a href="https://folukeafrica.com/the-trouble-with-defining-decolonisation-a-table-analogy-and-some-reading/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">folukeafrica.com/the-trouble-w</span><span class="invisible">ith-defining-decolonisation-a-table-analogy-and-some-reading/</span></a></p>
