Book Synopsis Afrocentricity by : Molefi Kete Asante
Download or read book Afrocentricity written by Molefi Kete Asante and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author has written this book entitled 'Afrocentricity' especially for those Africans still in a confused state in order to show them the way to peace. Further he indicates that the book has created its own supporters and detractors and has also been at the core of intense debates about the de-colonizing of the African mind, the dismantling of America, and the destabilizing of the Eurocentric hegemony. This book is not meant to be unread, un-remarked upon, or unheard. Afrocentrists have multiplied in the theaters, universities, unions, political organizations, schools, and corporations. The challenge to the white racial hierarchy has been intense and severe; there can be no hiding from the agency of awakened Africans. In the next few decades it is anticipated that a mighty revolution of values, symbols, and actions might bring about a more equitable society. This revolution for justice and liberty shall be led by the aroused black nation committed to a world of peace.
Download or read book Afrocentrism written by Stephen Howe and published by Verso. This book was released on 1998 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this provocative study, Stephen Howe traces the sources and ancestries of the movement, and closely analyses the writings of its leading proponents including Molefi Asante and the legendary Senegalese historian Cheikh Anta Diop. Martin Bernal"s contribution is also assessed. Hard-hitting yet subtle and scholarly in its appraisal of Afrocentric ideas, and based on wide-ranging research in the histories both of Afro-America and of Africa itself, Afrocentrism not only demolishes the mythical "history" taught by black ultra-nationalists but suggests paths towards a true historical consciousness of Africa and its diaspora.
Book Synopsis The Afrocentric School [a Blueprint] by : Nah Dove
Download or read book The Afrocentric School [a Blueprint] written by Nah Dove and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-03 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Afrocentric School, a Blueprint is a handbook that guides the prospective educationist, parent, student, and reader to understand African cultural history from an Afrocentric theoretical perspective. Africa is placed in the center of the African experience from the ancient times until now. Who were we? This book endeavors to answer that question. This handbook humbly offers some ideas based on ancient African principles that relate to the critical role of teaching our children. Grounded in the love of African humanity-women, men, girls, and boys, this handbook counters anti-African and anti-Black beliefs that have been propounded over centuries. This work expresses the recognition that there exists a range of African cultural values, beliefs, and behaviors just as there is amongst the different peoples who conquered Africa. In this work, the cultural legacy and heritage of Africa is embraced with the aim of providing adequate knowledge to achieve a reawakening of the cultural memory. The handbook provides a foundational curriculum for children aged 3-15 years, and its standards are based upon expectations developed from a baseline study on child development and education. The curriculum can be particularly helpful for those interested in or who are already teaching children of African descent; it can appeal to those who have established Afrocentric schools, those who are endeavoring to do so, those who wish to amplify an existing curriculum, those who want to teach their children, or those who simply wish to expand their knowledge.

Book Synopsis An Afrocentric Manifesto by : Molefi Kete Asante
Download or read book An Afrocentric Manifesto written by Molefi Kete Asante and published by Polity. This book was released on 2007-12-17 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Molefi Kete Asante's Afrocentric philosophy has become one of the most persistent influences in the social sciences and humanities over the past three decades. It strives to create new forms of discourse about Africa and the African Diaspora, impact on education through expanding curricula to be more inclusive, change the language of social institutions to reflect a more holistic universe, and revitalize conversations in Africa, Europe, and America, about an African renaissance based on commitment to fundamental ideas of agency, centeredness, and cultural location. In An Afrocentric Manifesto, Molefi Kete Asante examines and explores the cultural perspective closest to the existential reality of African people in order to present an innovative interpretation on the modern issues confronting contemporary society. Thus, this book engages the major critiques of Afrocentricity, defends the necessity for African people to view themselves as agents instead of as objects on the fringes of Europe, and proposes a more democratic framework for human relationships. An Afrocentric Manifesto completes Asante's quartet on Afrocentric theory. It is at the cutting edge of this new paradigm with implications for all disciplines and fields of study. It will be essential reading for urban studies, philosophy, African and African American Studies, social work, sociology, political science, and communication.

Book Synopsis The Afrocentric Praxis of Teaching for Freedom by : Joyce E. King
Download or read book The Afrocentric Praxis of Teaching for Freedom written by Joyce E. King and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-08-27 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Afrocentric Praxis of Teaching for Freedom explains and illustrates how an African worldview, as a platform for culture-based teaching and learning, helps educators to retrieve African heritage and cultural knowledge which have been historically discounted and decoupled from teaching and learning. The book has three objectives: To exemplify how each of the emancipatory pedagogies it delineates and demonstrates is supported by African worldview concepts and parallel knowledge, general understandings, values, and claims that are produced by that worldview To make African Diasporan cultural connections visible in the curriculum through numerous examples of cultural continuities––seen in the actions of Diasporan groups and individuals––that consistently exhibit an African worldview or cultural framework To provide teachers with content drawn from Africa’s legacy to humanity as a model for locating all students––and the cultures and groups they represent––as subjects in the curriculum and pedagogy of schooling This book expands the Afrocentric praxis presented in the authors’ "Re-membering" History in Teacher and Student Learning by combining "re-membered" (democratized) historical content with emancipatory pedagogies that are connected to an African cultural platform.

Molefi Kete Asante engages in the practice of critical thinking by raising fundamental questions about how Africans view themselves and the world.

Book Synopsis An Afrocentric Pan Africanist Vision by : Molefi Kete Asante
Download or read book An Afrocentric Pan Africanist Vision written by Molefi Kete Asante and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-10-29 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In An Afrocentric Pan Africanist Vision: Afrocentric Essays, Molefi Kete Asante, engages the age-old debate on Pan Africanism by providing an innovative orientation to the established discourse developed during the twentieth century. Asante opens an interrogation of the Padmorian tradition of a socialist Pan Africanism by suggesting that a deeper entry into the histories and narratives of the literary, economic, social, and spiritual values of the thousands of African societies scattered throughout the world could sustain a different agency analysis of Pan Africanism without grafting an external idea on the unity of Africa. Using his vast knowledge of the history of Africa, Asante suggests that the African renaissance cannot take place unless there is a commitment to creating an African community conscious of its own myths, origins, and economic, cultural, and philosophical traditions.
