In part 2, we explore some of the criticisms of China in Africa that go beyond the mythical claims of colonization. We look at what this means in the context of the impending cold war between China and America. We also examine ways in which Africans on the continent can navigate these challenges as a means of self-determination towards Pan-Africanism.
