Assignment
Focus:
European colonialism is often depicted as a force of greed that exploited the African people for financial gain; however, one could also argue that colonialism served a moral purpose and was mutually beneficial to both parties. How would one argue this second viewpoint, and do you agree that the benefits brought by Europeans outweighed the negative effects? Why or why not? What would you propose be done for Africans to overcome any negative effect of European colonialism?
