Ashanti Proverbs

Rattray was a jackass indeed! To suggest that our ancestors were not intelligent enough to create such proverbs is an insult. However, our ancestors continued to give him and others invaluable information. Check out the title.

Ashanti Proverbs: (The Primitive Ethics of a Savage People) Translated from the Original with Grammatical and Anthropological notes (1916)

"We must be cognizant of the selfish, predatory, imbalanced mindset that has come to infest our world. We would be most foolhardy students of our ancestors' wisdom not to see through those determinded anti-Afrikan people who would have us think that the social and cultural absorption of us into whiteness is the only logical, progressive human thing to do. We cannot treat others with respect if they systematically and historically use that respect against us. We cannot treat with respect a people who study our way only in order to turn it into a tool against us". - Nana Mwalimu Baruti
