Communication, Culture, and Human Rights in Africa is a tour de force of insight, brilliance, and clarity. Musa and Domatob, like magicians, have pulled off an incredible demonstration of the most current thinking on the human rights situation on the African continent. This will be a major book. I am truly impressed.
