This website was written by a man who claims to have grown up in diverse areas, and has had people (presumably dumb white Southerners) ask him if he has horns.

The European encounter with Africa occurred at the time of recovery following the devastating effects of the Black Death and the Little Ice Age. Europe recovered much faster than Asia and Africa. So, it was extremely difficult for European travelers to visualize societies so utterly devastated by these events—and by the slave trade. They found it impossible to imagine these places as capable of what was then defined as “culture”.
