  • Descrição: The history of Africans in Europe is unknown to many as it is a history that is not taught in most European schools. The book African Europeans: An Untold History educates the reader on this crucial missing aspect by detailing the influences and activities of Blacks in Europe and how they contributed to what Europe is today. The book helps readers to understand how the historical construction of the Negro as a beast of burden, without heritage or culture, contributed to the eradication of Black history in Europe. The author, Olivette Otele, then counters this by setting out the history of the many Black people and Black groups that did ordinary and extraordinary things in Europe. In doing so, Otele deconstructs a dominant narrative in European history that suggests that only exceptional Black people contributed and did so rarely.
