"So disoriented African intellectuals adopt alien gods, myths, thought systems
and ideals thinking they can make them their own, believing they will work for
them. What such disoriented African intellectuals do not know that that Africa
possesses its own ideal projections, and they cover the entire range of human
possibility....Intellectually disoriented Africans, in their inertia, remain
ignorant of the fact that the ideational resources required in war and peace,
reaction and revolution, stagnation and dynamic growth, are in fact present in
the original lodes of African culture and history, awaiting only rediscovery and
reuse by thinking Africans."
