I personally did not read the Bro's summation. I'm with Bro. Sadiku honestly, What difference does it make who invented something I mean I have studied the work of Dr. Asante though Afrikan Centered thought is about Nation building, Technology, Land, Wealth, Power, Weapons, Armies. I don't know if Dr. Asante has organized himself in that degree to address the concrete material issues of persons of Afrikan Descent. I've seen many "Cultural Analysis" as Dr. Amos Wilson suggest that where Dashiki's all day, speak about the Greatnest of Afrikan Civilization but won't put up one cent to build a Black School this is real. I see it all around me and correct me if I'm wrong but Dr. Asante appears to be one of these Cultural Nationalist i.e. somehow just our knowledge of Afrikan History will change how Europeans do things in the world. That knowledge of history must come into the Consciousness of what has happened and then more-so create a system as Baba Kambon suggest what is the Ultimate Final Solution. I appreciate Baba Kambon for really putting it out like that. That is the Highest state of Afro-Centricity. So if anything the so-called founder of Afro-Centricity should be Dr./Baba Kamau Kambon to hell with all this Negro Stuff. I mean these folks meant well, I'm not antagonistic to Dr. Asante though lets get real. Dr. Asante and many other PH.D scholars believe that lecturing and teaching on White Universities they are doing something. This is what I call Armchair Revolutionaries. I haven't read the definition of Armchair Revolutionaries that was posted on here, but from the top of my head I believe I was aware of what this term has meant for sometime. I'm going to see what this website says about Armchair Revolutionaries. B.T.W. I won't read this piece now, again I'm like Bro. Sadiku how is this debate going to solve anything. It may partially but to debate can someone call themselves the Father of Afro-Centricity as the topic alludes to does not warrant my absolute "stop what I'm studying to read it". Baba Kamau Kambons Black Guerilla Warfare in America is something I will stop what I'm doing to read, now how about talking about the Father of Black Guerilla Warfare?
Peace
