Cultural, social and agricultural achievements of Africa before the arrival of Europeans. Independence of Africa and problems of underdevelopment; outside forces. Achievements of various African countries. Paper Introduction: The problem of racism is not specifically an American problem. Racism occurs whenever there is a dominant racial group that uses its position to discriminate against a minority racial group on the basis of racial characteristics. Europe has also had its problems with racism. Imperialist policies of the various European governments were racially based and were justified with the idea that the non-white races were culturally inferior and never achieved the level of civilization of the white race. This idea made it seem that the white race was destined to be dominant and to oversee the development of these lesser peoples. In places like Africa, European imperialists claimed that natives were little more than savages before the coming of the white race and that they had never developed any lasting or important civilization of their own.
