It’s a lot lol, but you can definitely shorten it or probably just use the first words as an answer. hope it helps!!
1. Military resistance: This stage occurred in the 19th century, when
African nations and societies attempted to resist European colonial powers using military force. Some examples of military resistance include the Zulu resistance against the British in South Africa and the Mai Mai rebellion against the Germans in Tanzania. Military resistance was often unsuccessful due to the superior weapons and organization of European powers.
2. Diplomatic resistance: This stage occurred in the early 20th century, when African leaders began to use diplomacy and negotiation to resist colonial rule. Some leaders attended international conferences and used legal arguments to challenge colonial policies. For example, the African National Congress (ANC) in South Africa used legal challenges to apartheid policies. Diplomatic resistance was more successful than military resistance in achieving some gains, but it was limited by the fact that colonial powers still held significant political and economic power.
3. Cultural resistance: This stage occurred in the mid to late 20th century, when Africans began to use cultural resistance to resist colonial rule. This involved a revival of traditional African culture, language, and religion in response to European cultural domination. Cultural resistance was seen as a way to assert African identity and challenge the legitimacy of colonial rule. For example, the Negritude movement in Francophone Africa emphasized
African cultural identity and rejected
European cultural values. Cultural resistance was successful in promoting a sense of African identity and pride, but it did not necessarily lead to significant political or economic gains.
