The course will focus on a discussion of the ideas incorporated into the writing Centered: Building Afrikan Realities. This work is a warrior's handbook, specifically designed for Afrikan centered warrior scholars who understand what comes with claiming an uncompromising commitment to rebuild the... Afrikan nation. It is for those of us who are courageous enough to see where we have been and our condition in this reality through the eyes of our strongest Ancestors. And, it is for those of us who know that it is we who must fight for our sanity and survival, using every means at our disposal, to rebuild and regain control of our concepts, communities and the dynamic, powerful Centers which have ourstorically defined and set the standard for these communities. It is a study in what it means to be Afrikan centered for those who are only validated by our Ancestors.
