![Colonialism’s influence on African religion](images/fileicons/nodigital.png)
Recorded off mic.
Begins abruptly with a speech by a man about old African religions and folk tales. He speaks about traditional African religions, animism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. “Where the African went wrong in the history of the world was when he adopted foreign gods or foreign interpretation of his gods”. One of the ways Africa was oppressed and colonized was through religious colonization. He talks about how elements of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam can be found in Africa’s own religions, but says that African religions should not be interpreted by outsiders. He describes the history of foreign influence on African religion and slave trade. Next, a woman speaks about Baptists, her own faith, and she speaks about literature originating out of Egypt. Lastly, continuing to Side B, another man speaks about Mozambique.

Other topics include how the end of British colonialism affected Sudan, the role of missionaries in the colonial process and post-colonial development, challenges of nation building, the prospect of succession and how other events in Africa relate to Sudan.
