This expanded edition continues Diop's campaign for the political and economic unification of the nations of black Africa. It concludes with a lengthy interview with Diop.

In this book the late Diop presents a dynamic and convincing argument for the creation of a unified black African state.  This new revised  is supplemented with an interview by renowned political analyst  and journalist Carlos Moore and delineates Diop's vision of the emergence of Africa as a major world power.

Diop explains why attempts at economic develop and cooperation cannot succeed apart from the political unification of black Africa and why the freedom of South African blacks  can  be achieved with the support of all African states.

Hee show how the national and tribal groupings share a common cultural heritage, how linguistic unification is possible, and how the preservation and development of Africa's natural resources could transform the life of its people. For Diop , the ultimate aim of unity is the restoration of the historical consciouness of black and African peoples and the complete recovery of political sovereignty in a postcolonial world.
