This superb book will be a landmark in African studies because the scholars who have undertaken the task of telling their own social sciences, humanities, and literary narratives have displayed a sharp and penetrating engagement with history, politics and culture in such a powerful manner that one cannot read these chapters without claiming them to be the gold standard in contemporary thinking. AARON SMITH, TEMPLE UNIVERSITY We Will Tell Our Own Story is instructive to scholars and general readers as a method of confronting the manifold problems of misinterpretation and false presentations about African people. I find this work to be extraordinary in conception and execution. SWAHILI SMT, FEDERAL UNIVERSITY OF BAHIA, BRAZIL We Will Tell Our Own Story joins a growing number of Afrocentric books that are already revolutionizing the way Africans view themselves and their academies. The creation of a cadre of scholars devoted to truth, rigor, ancestrality, and values is a mark of a mature civilization; these authors are the necessary foundation for further growth.

Molefi Kete Asante has been named by his peers as one of the most influential contemporary scholars in America. In fact, Maulana Karenga said,"Molefi is the preeminent Afrocentric theorist, an intellectual of the highest caliber, and a fine human being." Michael Dyson has written that, "The pioneering Afrocentrist Molefi Kete Asante is one of the most influential African American scholars." Asante's contribution to scholarship appears in his own work, the work of his mentored students, and the critical scholarship engendered by his provocative philosophical approach to the study of Africa and its Diaspora. He writes history, novels, short stories, essays, plays, critical commentary, and poetry. Asante has directed more than 120 doctoral students and his students lead departments and teach at universities across the world. Professor Asante received his PhD from the University of California, Los Angeles and has taught at UCLA, Purdue, SUNY-Buffalo, Florida State, Howard, and Temple University. Asante is a Visiting Professor at Zhejiang University in Hangzhou, China, and Professor Extraordinarius at the University of South Africa. He is currently Professor and Chair, Department of Africology, Temple University. Asante has published 78 (seventy-eight) books, including the comprehensive The History of Africa. African Pyramids of Knowledge represents a synthesis of Asante's most powerful arguments for the overturn of a Eurocentric consciousness that prevents African people from exercising their own agency based on their fundamental cultural values. In this volume Asante has sought to provide the formal and informal student with the structure for critical reflections on significant issues in the African world. Thus, African Pyramids is as much a methodological as theoretical work.

LYNCHING BARACK OBAMA How Whites Tried to String Up the President Molefi Kete Asante Asante, the author of African Pyramids of Knowledge, argues that the infamous historical acts of lynching black men in the United States might be used to describe how many people of the white Right Wing have used various techniques to "string up" presidential objectives. Barack Obama as the first black President of the United States met immediate resistance from a white majority that voted for his opponent in 2008. This was repeated in 2012. Thus, both John McCain and Mitt Romney received a majority of white votes in the two elections yet Obama won the elections. Asante contends that whites felt that they had lost "their" country and the only way to act was to prevent Barack Obama from asserting himself as a black man. Asante shows in a compelling manner, by choosing many of the attacks on Obama found in the media, that the President was tied up, roped, and hung out to dry by the white Republican Right. Nevertheless, as Asante explains Barack Obama championed some of the most progressive actions ever addressed by a president. He was unwilling to be cowed by the aggression of the frightened, fickle, and fearful virtual mob that wanted to "take their country back" from the President who was not one of them. "Asante's work reveals a profoundly reflective intellectual engaged in a balanced and authoritative analysis of the serious assaults on the personal and administration of the first black President of the United States. His metaphor is apt and well-placed in the analysis." ---Ama Mazama, co-editor, Journal of Black Studies.

Language is a powerful tool, from religion to love, slavery to freedom. We use words to identify, express, impose and create movements, overthrow governments, impeach dictators and impart knowledge. It is no surprise then that the news media, schools and religious institutions use words, images, symbols, music, art and stories, to maintain the practices of either keeping people subjugated or breaking the chains of mental, emotional and psychological imprisonment. It begins at birth, through children's stories and fairytales, stereotyping through various communication outlets, music and other media forms such a video games and toys. The rhetoric in political space, society, in global intercultural, sociopolitical and international relationships, is imperative to the growth of individuals as well as nations, national identity and social justice. This collective work of poetry is a journey through words. Words that paint a picture and create moving images of a girl's transition into womanhood; an innocent trying to navigate the spaces of being Jamaican, an Immigrant, A Black Woman and Naturalized American. It analyzes how we view language in the arts and in everyday life occurrences, in showing the confusion, the wonder, the self-critique, the sadness, the sense of loss, and abandonment as an eclectic coming of age journal. It depicts a student who strives for scholarship through the American Educational System and finally embarking on the path of doctoral study, a journey that has opened the door of consciousness, awakening, endarkening, and bridging the gap of understanding. It analyzes the power of language as a tool of communication, as a process of evolution and as plank to walk in the realization of who you are and where you belong.Afrocentric Before Afrocentricity unfolds a chronological journey, that especially through the newer more recent pieces, applies the use of the paradigm Afrocenctricity, movements such as Pan-Africanism and theories such as Corpus Linguistics as strong assertions in the counter narrative of discrimination, in debunking linguistic imperialistic ideologies; and through poetic prose, offer a small way to limit the etymological assault on the erosion of Black consciousness.
