Críticas
Lindqvist presents a unique study of Europe's dark history in Africa, written both as a travel diary and as a historical examination of European imperialism and racism over the past 2 centuries, and confronts the roots of European genocide.
I denna kronologiskt upplagda handbok som spänner över en tidsperiod då rasismen växte till en världsomfattande ideologi berättar Lindqvist motståndarnas historia, från 1750 till förra sekelskiftet: ett tjugotal författare, läkare, forskare och vanliga medmänniskor träder fram och protesterar mot såväl omvälvande historiska händelser som övergrepp i det fördolda.

Det engelska originalet lyder Exterminate all the brutes.… (mais)
