Answer: Prejudices based on color and race would be applied to African history as it has developed as factors that led to the slave trade and the exploitation of Africans.
According to this point of view, the social and economic conditions that slaves of African origin experienced had a significant impact on the perception that Americans were inferior. The poor social and economic conditions that Africans on these estates endured by the 18th century was perceived as evidence of their racial inferiority. The dark skin of the Africans also contributed to their inferiority.
Instead of being a continent with 54 sovereign nations, each with its own dialects, past and traditions, Africa is frequently misunderstood as being one single nation. People mistakenly believe that all Africans are the same and lack a distinct history and culture due to this misrepresentation. Particularly in the sports media, Africa is frequently portrayed uniformly and essentialist way. Such generalization often takes the form of negative framing and equating one location with the entire continent.
