White Malice - Susan Williams
Description
White Malice book by Susan Williams
White Malice is a deeply researched history of the CIA's covert involvement in Africa during the Cold War and the efforts to undermine African independence movements. Historian Susan Williams examines how the United States and its intelligence agencies intervened in newly independent African nations as global powers competed for political and economic influence.
Focusing particularly on the Congo and the wider African continent, Williams explores the role of covert operations, political manipulation, propaganda, and foreign intervention in shaping the continent's postcolonial history. The book examines the international forces surrounding the Congo crisis and the fate of Patrice Lumumba, while placing African events within the broader context of the Cold War.
Detailed and investigative, White Malice offers an important perspective on colonialism, decolonization, African sovereignty, and the geopolitical forces that influenced the continent after independence.
