What is Saboteurs of Authenticity in Kongo Culture about?
This document discusses how the colonial church sabotaged African culture and authenticity by labeling African traditions as devilish or pagan in order to convince Africans to turn away from their ancestors and culture. It provides several examples of things considered divine if done by Europeans but devilish if done by Africans, such as herbal medicine, spiritual practices, and cultural traditions. The author argues this poisoned the minds of African youth and aims to refute the colonial church
