This paper examines African ideologues and the innovative trend embodied in the new digital technologies. It prioritized African history and culture as a necessary balance for the digital age. In as much as there are many advantages of the innovative technological devices in African societies today, there are also multiple challenges associated with them that meddle on African history and culture which has the capability of devaluing them if not checked. The current technological trend and innovations have almost everyone and every nation entangled in it either for the best or for the worst. African youths and children are most vulnerable to the negative side of this. This paper examines African ideology and the new trend of the technological/digital age. It highlights history and culture as the major factors that must be prioritized in present times for the sake of Africa's balanced future. The paper relies on archival and written sources. The findings here will help researchers in cultural studies, historians, and those in African studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
