content:
Edited film produced by Encyclopedia Britannica Films presents an overview of sub-Saharan Africa through the focus of geography and its influence on the continent's historical, social, and economic climate. Particular emphases is placed on the continent's rich natural resources, such as gold, diamonds, rubber, cocoa, sugarcane, and ivory and their role in the creation of a racially stratified labor force (which relies heavily upon the exploitation of Africans) and in turn, society. Also discusses the South African apartheid system, the European partitioning of Africa, Africa's involvement in the world economy, and educational disparities among poorer and typically non-White communities in South Africa. Cities featured in the film are Elizabethville, Johannesburg, and Leopoldville.

content: Paul Conrad, political cartoonist. This book was completed to Prelorán's satisfaction but is unfinished due to unresolved copyright issues. Prelorán collaborated with Conrad and he approved the final book, however there were some copyright concerns due to drawings that were published in newspapers. Conrad's son was making arrangements to publish a shortened version of the book, ended up re-editing the book and published it w/out any credit to Prelorán.
