The Pan-African Initiative in the Americas: Culture, Common Struggle and the Odu Ifa
This chapter argues that cultural recovery, cultural grounding and ongoing struggle around issues of common concern are the rock on which the pan-African initiative stands or is shattered, and the raft on which it sinks or sails with a strong wind. In fact, one of the ways Europe has maintained its monopoly on power has been to monopolize knowledge. It is for this reason it has refused to transfer technology and why it structured underdevelopment…
Founding the First PhD in Black Studies: A Sankofa Remembrance and Critical Assessment of Its Significance
Clearly, the founding of the first PhD program in Black Studies at Temple University under the leadership of Molefi Kete Asante is a major, defining, and transformative achievement in the advancement of the discipline and in the discipline’s continuous initiatives and struggles to expand intellectual and institutional space for a truly multicultural, global, and quality education beyond the existing dominant monocultural Eurocentric paradigm and …
Names and Notions of Black Studies: Issues of Roots, Range, and Relevance
The principle purpose of this article is to bring under critical reflection some of the central issues surrounding and informing current and continuing notions of Black Studies and the ongoing concerns about its appropriate naming. It is a fundamental assumption of this article that the various notions and names of Black Studies are anchored in and reflective of differing concepts of the roots, range, and relevance of the discipline. The issue of…

The author discusses these in the context of ancient and modern concerns for issues of human dignity and human rights and the right and responsibility of the struggle for freedom as a particular African and universal human project. This article is also part of the author's ongoing effort to expand ethical discourse and discuss…

Kwame Ture in the Scales of History “a Legacy of Lessons”
promising either. In addition to this broad historical framework, my assessment of the lessons and living legacy of Kwame Ture is unavoidably conditioned by our mutual encounters in the Movement and the philosophy (Kawaida) and political practice of my organization Us (Karenga, 1998). Emerging in the 60's as an organizer for the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), Kwame epitomizes the contours, questions, challenges and struggles o…

Under The Camouflage of Color and Gender: The Dread and Drama of Thomas-Hill
context of claimed injury and urgency, peppered with passionate anecdote and accusation and time-released rage. Still, the ThomasHill affair is instructive in several ways which merit critical investigation as a lesson of history and struggle too meaningful to miss and too valuable to be reductively translated in the simplistic way each of the parties would have us do. The incident represents a study in race and gender relations, especially how i…
Culture, Politics and Common Ground
Black Studies and the Problematic of Paradigm: The Philosophical Dimension
In spite of its ideals and continuing promise, was clear from its inception that Studies would encounter a series of internal and external challenges to its realization as a legitimate and effective discipline. And was equally clear that how responded to those challenges would determine its course, content, and ultimate future (Hare, 1972). At the heart of these challenges is the problematic of paradigm that, although was posed and pursued at the…

A Response to Muhammad Ahmad
(Editor's Note: Due to an editorial error undocumented allegations against M. Ron Karenga were printed in article by Muhammad Ahmad, On the Black Student Movement, 1969-70/' in the May/June 1978 issue of THE BLACK SCHOLAR. In the interest of fairness we are publishing below a response by Dr. Karenga. This response is extracted from a longer paper which may be obtained from Kawaida Publications, P. 0. Box 13643, San Diego, CA 92113.)
Kawaida and Its Critics a Sociohistorical Analysis
The current criticism of Kawaida from the white left is neither new nor nerve-shattering. It is essentially a tired and tattered continuation both in form and content of the criticism launched against organized Afro-American nationalism at its inception (Cruse, 1967). The CPUSA's character assassination of Garvey as a dangerous reactionary and Malcolm as a police agent, finds its current reflection in the infantile leftist charge that Maulana Kar…
