"Should African people be called black – or is the categorising of people by
skin colour a racist practice? How about Africa? Is the name of the continent a
racial slur because it was chosen by European exploiters and based on the
weather rather than the people – and should it be renamed?
These are questions that African philosophy scholar Jonathan Okeke Chimakonam
considers in a research paper. We asked him what he and his co-author
concluded."
