What if the Western vision was wrong, and would rather be the trigger for the intinction of the human species?
A question that is not unfounded because Western expansionism has brought many problems and apparently solved certain problems by creating above all means of capitalist profit. In the field of health, if mortality rates are compared in ancient Egypt, and in native Latin American communities such as Indians or Native of the African equatorial forests such as pygmies, to those of the so-called civilized populations, Ratio seems rather to militate in favor of the so-called indigenous populations whose only hecatomb in general often occurs when they come into contact with what is commonly called civilization. A phenomenal shock that sometimes led to the edge of extinction some varieties of the human species.
The clash of cultures created hybrid populations in perpetual identity crisis. The acculturation of the populations who knew slavery, or colonization is an abyssal plague. If for Emmanuel MOUNIER “most blacks are ashamed of being black, a secret shame they do not do theirs, but haunts their pride”. It should be noted, however, that the rejection of identity that reached its peak in the 80's and 90's is experiencing a vertiginous drop with the renewed interest in the new generations of Africans and afro descendants on Africa and Africanness, a sign that shows, if it’s still necessary to prove that what has since been considered Western civilization is in full decline, because the latter has failed in its so-called civilizing mission by forcing itself to
format beings who could only be refractory to the biotope or society imposed on them, because of the rigid rules which aim at their perpetual enslavement. Many have waited for the right moment to leave in their direction not without recovering the baggage of their experience in Western society.
Western society has always thought of perpetuating itself, when it knows the current crisis of values, it tries to apply radical methods that are barely visible.
Jean-Claude Michéa in his book The Teaching of Ignorance and its Modern Conditions, explains that the steady decline of critical intelligence, meaning this fundamental ability of man to understand both in which the world he is brought to live and from which conditions the revolt against this world is a moral even vital necessity, is no longer on the agenda in the teaching provided in the academic curriculum, while the media do the rest. He believes that by altering the critical judgment based on "minimal cultural bases, the teaching of ignorance, like the destruction of cities in peacetime, is at the center of the capitalist acculturation. Because those who no longer have a culture necessarily consumes that of the dominant force.
For example, in France, if French artists and French filmmakers are no longer able to fill arenas, American musicians and Hollywood films because of the acculturation that the United States has since imposed on France, performs in sold out venues. The destruction of the culture of others is an unprecedented economic war, if by a curious combination of circumstance African haircuts and braids were to become the norm accepted by all, how much would African hairdressers earn and what would it bring to Africa in terms of moral respect, and foreign currency?
In Africa, if culture remains strong because of rigid customs and misery that prevents the penetration of certain tools of acculturation such as the media, cinema, music, the situation is no less critical.
Capital is not sorely lacking in Africa, because it is the basis of capital; producing in abundance the raw materials necessary for this capitalist world. Paradoxically downstream, it is the
