Summary: A road less traveled
Comment: This book sets about on the journey to link the African American life to the culture, values, and spiritual roots of Africa. The authors call this an Afrocentric perspective in viewing African American life. This book differienciates between viewing the world from a Eurocentric view as opposed to viewing the world from an African perspective. It necessarily does not glorify Afrocentricism, but states that this concept is important for African Americans to understand the origins of their identity and value systems. The book goes into detail about the orgins of biological, religious and philisophical theories that define and justify racial inferiority. It develops in detail about African American identity, stressing the fact that culturally different does not mean deficient. The authors detail in defined chapters, what consistant and inconsistant behavior is putting African Americans at risk for future generations. It is thought provoking reading to gain perspective about African American behavior from African traditions and ancestry.
