Ubuntu as Belonging to Community and the Challenge of Afrophobia in Sub-Saharan Africa

I approach Afrophobia differently from its predominant representation in extant literature, where it is taken as a problem of migrant-receiving countries. Instead, I defend an underemphasized dimension, where it is a problem of colonial origin, implicating migrant-receiving and migrant-sending countries in sub-Saharan Africa-which has endured colonialism and its successor version, neocolonialism or coloniality, and its associated problems. I take Afrophobia to be an outcome of this persisting historical injustice. In this light, I aim to show how ubuntu-grounded governance could work toward decolonizing countries in Africa and, by extension, help abate or end Afrophobia
