    Tatah Mentan
    Human beings indeed need not justify terrorism of any kind, regardless of whether one is Muslim, Christian or Jew, because it is the axis of evil and devastation of mankind. Terrorism on Africa has been a ubiquitous presence against which the democratic values of African civilization are ranged-a demon to be exorcised at all costs, even at the cost of civil liberties. However, ...

  • Understanding Contemporary Journalism
    Tatah Mentan
    Journalism is one of the most important professions today. Without it, large swaths of the world similarly might have remained 'dark, impoverished, tortured,' because few people would have been aware of the nature and depth of the atrocities therein. You can’t fix what you can’t find. Indeed, we have only to look at places today where journalists must risk their lives to do the...

  • Recurrent Genocidal Nightmares
    Tatah Mentan
    Genocide has been called the ‘crime of crimes’ and an ‘odious scourge.’ With millions of victims in the last century alone, it is one of the great moral and political challenges of our age. Despite the challenges, such human cruelty has not stopped. The 21st century is recording its first genocide in Cameroon with only a scanty few raising a finger. The significance of the ‘odi...

  • The Open Veins of Africa
    Tatah Mentan
    There is no discussion on Africa today that does not make reference to the contradiction that exists between its wealth of natural resources and the poverty of most of its people. Africa is not a poor continent, and not all Africans are poor. Yet Africa is depicted as the world’s poorest continent, where the majority of people live with no access to clean water, decent health c...

    Tatah Mentan
    Words like “colonialism” and “empire” were once frowned upon in the U.S. and other Western mainstream media as worn-out left-wing rhetoric that didn’t fit reality. Not anymore! Tatah Mentan observes that a growing chorus of right-wing ideologues, with close ties to the Western administrations’ war-making hawks in NATO, are encouraging Washington and the rest of Europe to take p...

  • The Elusiveness of Peace in a Suspect Global System
    Tatah Mentan
    A convenient veil is drawn over the many issues facing the majority of citizens on a daily basis as a result of the so-called free market.

  • In Defence of Press Freedom in Africa
    Tatah Mentan
    When Africa stumbled into independence in the 1960s, the blossoming of newspapers of nearly every political persuasion was widely hailed as a critical stepping stone toward true multiparty democracy. However, rather than marking a clean break with an authoritarian past, the era of multiparty politics in Africa has been a time of increased hardship and repression for journalists...

  • Decolonizing Democracy from Western Cognitive Imperialism
    Tatah Mentan
    There seems to be a sort of prevalent attitude in the Western world that its brand of democracy is something of a catch all solution for all the world’s political problems. Hence, Western imperialism has always been sold under the pretext of spreading freedom and democracy. Democracy is beautiful. But it is no proof against imperialism. Whether democracy is causal is another wh...

  • Democracy for Breakfast. Unveiling Mirage Democracy in Contemporary Africa
    Tatah Mentan
    Democracy is the faith that the process of experience is more important than any special result attained, so that special results achieved are of ultimate value only as they are used to enrich and order the ongoing process. Africans must therefore be allowed to apply their cultural and historical experiences and talents in working out a pattern of ’government of the people, by ...
