The prevailing image of Africa and the Africans in textbooks, as well as in the media and in the literature, was found to be based on racial stereotypes which could be traced back to the colonial era, when the dehumanisation of African people served to justify colonial crimes and slave trade (Fremdgen, 1984; Bechhaus-Gerst, 2006; Borries, 1986; Arndt, 2006 and references therein). According to new studies these colonial perspectives are still persistent in German schools albeit in a more subtle form (Poenicke, 2001, 2003 and 2008; Pingel, 2001; Kerber, 2005; Ju\u0308nger, 2007). History is being taught from a Eurocentric perspective \u2013 African history seems to begin with the \u201cdiscovery\u201d by the Europeans (Poenicke, 2008). <a href=\"http:\/\/www.elina-marmer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Expose-en.pdf\">more&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ELINA MARMER \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 IMAFREDU EXPOS\u00c9 \u00a0 \u00a0 IMage of AFRica in EDUcation The impact of the portrayal of the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-256","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elina-marmer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/256","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elina-marmer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elina-marmer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elina-marmer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elina-marmer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=256"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.elina-marmer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/256\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elina-marmer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=256"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
