4.0 out of 5 stars Great Reading 27 Jun 2007

By Elias Chikoto - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

I thought this book was really thought provoking and helps to highlight the damage done to our African languages by colonialists. Sadly, we now have an increasing number of Africans who seem to take pride in how well their kids know foreign languages when they cannot even speak the tongue of their birth!
