Read the excerpt from "An Image of Africa: Racism in

would suggest from my privileged position in African and
Western cultures some advantages the West might derive
from Africa once it rid its mind of old prejudices and began to

mystifications but quite simply as a continent of people not
angels, but not rudimentary souls either—just people, often
highly gifted people and often strikingly successful in their
enterprise with life and society.

Conrad values those who excel, while Achebe values
only everyday people.
Achebe understands Africans as complex people, while
Conrad presents them as caricatures.
