In his powerful novel, Muhammad Al-Mansi Qandil explores the devastating impact of colonialism in the heart of Africa. 'White Erases Black' delves into the complex and often brutal relationship between the European colonizer and the indigenous African people. The title metaphorically captures the central theme: the attempt by the 'white' culture to dominate, assimilate, and ultimately erase the 'black' identity, history, and way of life. The book is a profound critique of the colonial mindset, examining themes of racism, exploitation, cultural clash, and the deep psychological scars left on both the oppressor and the oppressed.
