EDITORS COMMENTS
In this thought-provoking photo print, titled "AFRICA: COLONIALISM, 1904" we are transported back to a crucial moment in history when France and Britain made an unprecedented agreement. The image captures the essence of their pact not to let Africa divide them by dividing Africa itself. A powerful French cartoon from 1904 serves as a visual representation of this significant event. The photograph takes us on a journey through time, immersing us in the early years of colonialism. It sheds light on the complex dynamics between two major European powers and their ambitions in Africa during the Edwardian era. The map prominently displayed showcases the vastness of African territories that were under colonial rule at that time. What strikes me about this image is not only its historical significance but also its underlying message against colonialism. It symbolizes resistance against oppressive practices and highlights the political action taken by those who opposed such domination. The men depicted in the photo appear deep in conversation, perhaps discussing strategies or contemplating ways to maintain their unity amidst conflicting interests. The river flowing nearby adds another layer of symbolism, representing both division and connection – a reminder that despite their differences, these nations shared common ground. This print invites viewers to reflect upon our collective past and consider how it continues to shape our present world. It reminds us of the importance of acknowledging historical injustices while striving for unity and understanding among nations today.
