How did the Bandung Conference place anti racism and anti colonialism together?

Correct answer: Asian African countries made equality sovereignty and opposition to foreign domination shared issues

The Bandung Conference of 1955 brought Asian and African countries together at a time when many were newly independent or still resisting colonial rule. They connected opposition to racism with opposition to colonialism because both systems denied equality, political freedom, and the right of peoples to govern themselves. The conference emphasized sovereignty, territorial integrity, peaceful cooperation, and resistance to foreign domination.

Choice A is correct because equality, independence, and self-determination became shared concerns among participating countries. Bandung did not ask for the restoration of European empires; it challenged imperial control and racial hierarchy. Choice B reverses its purpose, C is morally and historically false, and D ignores the conference’s effort to build solidarity among new states. Remembering 1955 helps place the event in the history of Afro-Asian cooperation. The supplied answer is correct.
