“How Europe Underdeveloped Africa — his pen outlived his assassins”
Walter Rodney (1942–1980) was a revolutionary historian, author, and Pan-African activist. His seminal work "How Europe Underdeveloped Africa" (1972) remains one of the most important texts in postcolonial theory. He co-founded the Working People's Alliance and was assassinated in Georgetown by a car bomb in 1980 — a wound in the national consciousness that has never fully healed.
