Book excerpt: The author traveled throughout Africa to understand how to BE an African- he had to learn to think black, feel black, act black, love black, demonstrably suspect everything and anything nonblack, and talk black- a new jargon peculiar to African nationalists; a patois designed to adulate everything black, to deprecate everything white.
