Asante referred to a Senagalese Intellectual and I wonder if he is referring to " Seex Anta Jóob" (in wolof) ? also known as "Cheikh Anta Diop" (29 December 1923 - 7 February 1986) he was a Senegalese historian, anthropologist, physicist, and politician who studied the human race's origins and pre-colonial African culture.[1] Diop's work is considered foundational to the theory of Afrocentricity, though he himself never described himself as an Afrocentrist.[2] The questions he posed about cultural bias in scientific research contributed greatly to the postcolonial turn in the study of African civilizations

I read about him as an assigned for my first week for my graduate program and I am fascinated and Intrigued about the Afrocentric theory.

Young student, theory: 1) a supposition or a system of ideas intended to explain something, especially 1 based on general principals independent of the thing to be explained. 2) a set of principles used on which the practice of an activity is based. 3) an idea used to account for a situation or justify a course of action. Afrocentric: regarding African or so called blk culture as preeminent. Afrocentric and theory is an oxymoron dude. Read ' Intro to Afrikan American History' if you really want an understanding. If you need suggestions I'm willing to teach my nigga! #panafrikanism #theoriginalman #allnonafrikanshaveneanderthalDNA #rhesusmonkey #denosovianDNA #fiftyfirstparallel

The absolute best.

An unbelievable lecture and an erudite exposition of a very complex subject.

With all due respect I believe in the duality and twinness and the souls of black folks in America; indeed we can have a understanding of both cultures of American and African!

I do understand Dubois in a different light. That we are a distinct spirit and others have theirs, I find there to be credibility. One, I also believe can be of a dual consciousness. Of course not at once, and I don't think Dubois meant that. The reference seems more likely hinged on the vaserlation of moving from one frame of mind to another. Yet, I respect the opinions of Dr Sante, a true warrior of history. ✌️

and in my language your name is Sotho origin and means The One who Pays or The WEALTHY one.(Molefi/Lefa) comes from Paying or Wealth.Kete comes from mokete which means celebration in most of my people lingos here in South Africa,Lesotho and Botswana. I believe they have the same meaning in Kenya as well(Lozi or Rozwi). I thank the knowledge you sharing and may the Gods grant you more wisdom to free Bantulands.Mother Alkebulan nkhere!

Great presentation.

Its not on DuBois. Its on DuBois and the theory of double consciousness, and his connection to Africa. Its not a history lesson, its a philosophic discussion

White...Black Why? Who created these labels? Why call oneself "Black" Are "Whites" your masters? There is no movement! Non-European people are an enemy based on race! Why Are You Black...See Amexem! The worst label. When you're lost...you follow...Right? DeBlack and Free yourselves from self hatred and mental bondage cast upon you by the True "Black" people who originated from Europe! History Does Not Lie...the Teachings of Black Europeans is A Lie including their Demon Religion foolishly adopted by their slave-minded vassals!

WE DO NOT NEED TO ERASE THE DUALITY BUT RATHER EMBRACE THE DUALITY!!!!

GREAT LECTURES TO CREATE YOUR OWN MEDIA CURRICULUM IN YOUR OWN HOME ..

Wow

I am curious to understand what led Dubious to his final views on Africa after fighting against that view for many years. Dubois was the last person I expected to teach or be buried in Africa.

@ Rene Barendse, this talk is not full of errors. DuBois, indeed, went to the University of Berlin.

Are these people giving lectures too or are they asking questions -please answer me some one

Asante's assessment of is DuBois conflicted. As an educator, he appears limited or possibly envious at the scope of educational enlightenment achieved by DuBois who educated himself across cultures and nations, which is a rare achievement for anyone. Asante's conclusion that DuBois had a German-Centric leaning is inaccurate; however, anyone during the rise of Germany cannot ignore their achievements as an industrial nation who fostered many of the brightest minds of science..stolen by the U.S. Regarding Africa, regrettably, the continent is flawed with selfish corruption and the adoption of racist colonization, which carved it into smaller ineffective countries generally ruled by thugs and crooks! The Americans of African descent are beyond a crossroad and if they continue to fail in recognizing the "war" against them imposed by Euro-Americans, they to will "cease to exist" as the native people have been reduced to obscurity by the "Black" people from Europe.

It's Duwah not Duboy.

TEACH THE CLASSICAL AFRICAN HISTORY!!!!!

This lecture is well delivered and intended is full of errors and it grossly misreads DuBois besides. For example: DuBois did not to go school in Berlin, he went to the university . The conference in Manchester was organised by Nkrumah and Padmore - not by DuBois. The only Nigerian leader there was Nnamdi Azikiwe. The Ewe do not have a court, where are the Brong? And as to the final playdoyer that is simply reiterating the old colonial point that the Zimbabwe ruins were built by Egyptians.
