White Malice

The CIA and the Covert Recolonization of Africa
Book • 2023
In 'White Malice', Dr. Susan Williams uncovers the covert operations pursued by the CIA from Ghana to the Congo to the UN, aimed at frustrating and denying Africa’s new generation of nationalist leaders.

This book challenges the conventional belief that African nations failed to establish effective, democratic states on their own accord, revealing instead how the US intervened to control the region as European powers withdrew.

The book is based on extensive archival research and numerous written and oral sources from eight countries and the United Nations.
