There are a series of processes that I call the "Dynamics of Domination." In order for one group of people (in this case Europeans) to control an African population, it was necessary, first, to erase African memory. To erase or to suppress memory is a psychological operation which disables anyone as an individual who has memory. The memory of one's group history. When a group loses its historical memory, its disable. Secondly, to suppress the practice of African culture. Third to teach white supremacy. Fourth to control the institutions of socialization, to prevent African people from educating their own children, and from sending their own messages through the media, etc. The control of wealth. And finally physical segregation. These are the historical activities that Europeans engaged in, in order to conquer the Continent, to enslave people, to practice segregation.
