  • Draws on a remarkable range of pop culture and historical source material – from Ernest Hemingway to Richard Wright, the African Queen to the Lion King

  • Addresses such topical events such as Kony2012, American responses to the Ebola crisis, and responses to Obama's Kenyan parentage

  • Includes both white and African-American views on Africa, and how they have evolved over time

  • Highly relevant given the increased prominence enjoyed by African authors/thinkers in America, such as Teju Cole and Chimamanda Adichie
