Answer:

  • It denies the civilization created by Africans.
  • It rejects its cultures, concepts and values.
  • It presents Africans as violent beings and unable to live socially.

Step-by-step explanation:

Eurocentrism is a racist view of European colonists to impose European standards and values above the cultures of other regions, which are considered impure and inferior and therefore must be devalued and suppressed.

An example of this can be seen in the text above, where the narrator ignores all African culture and civilization and states that this culture must be forgotten due to the chaotic and violent scenario that Europeans consider to have occurred on the African continent and that they consider that it is more important than any other element of African civilization.
