"No single part of Africa can be safe, or free to develop fully and
independently, while any part remains unliberated, or while
Africa's vast economic resources continue to be exploited by
imperialist and neo-colonialist interests. Unless Africa is
politically united, under an All-African Union Government, there
can be no solution to our political and economic
problems."
(from Author's Note)

This is the book which, when first published in 1965, caused such an uproar in the US State Department that a sharp note of protest was sent to Kwame Nkrumah, and the $25million of American "aid" to Ghana was promptly cancelled. It exposes the working of international monopoly capitalism in Africa and shows how the stranglehold of foreign monopolies perpetuates the paradox of Africa: poverty in the midst of plenty.
