The last couple hundred years or so has been a period of very dramatic changes and adjustments for African societies. From the impact of the end of the slave trade, which involved many African societies, to the beginning, and oppressive regimes of colonialism, to the end of the European domination and independence for these African countries, it seems very difficult to imagine another period of history, especially African history, where there were so many dramatic changes over such a relatively short period of time. One change that gets left out and not many people talk about very often is the very dramatic changes that occurred in the role of gender, specifically women, over this time period and their different roles played in society.
