Decolonization is an original composition by Brent Blount. All instruments played by Brent Blount. Decolonization is available for purchase at www . brentblount . com http://www . english . emory . edu/Bahri/Education . html The decolonization process In order to eliminate the harmful, lasting effects of colonial education, post-colonial nations or territories must remove the sense of nothingness that is often present. Thiong'o insists that "To decolonize our minds we must not see our own experiences as little islands that are not connected with other processes" (The Global Education Process). Post-colonial education must reverse the former reality of "education as a means of mystifying knowledge and hence reality" (The Global Education Process). A new education structure boosts the identity of a liberated people and unites previously isolated individuals.
