Decolonising Colonial Education
Doing Away with Relics and Toxicity Embedded in the Racist Dominant Grand Narrative
This book on decolonising education chastises, heartens and
invites academics to seriously commence academic and intellectual
manumission by challenging the current toxic episteme – the Western
dominant Grand Narrative that embeds, espouses and superimposes itself
on others. It exhorts African scholars in particular to unite and
address the bequests of colonialism and its toxic episteme by
confronting the internalised fabrications, hegemonic dominance, lies and
myths that have caused many conflicts in world history. Such a toxic
episteme founded on problematic experiments, theories and praxis has
tended to license unsubstantiated views and stereotypes of others as
intellectually impotent, moribund and of inferior humanity. The book
invites academics and intellectuals to commit to a healthy dialogue
among the world’s competing traditions of knowing and knowledge
production to produce a truly accommodating and inclusive grand
narrative informed by a recognition of a common and shared humanity.
