The Precarious Center, or When Will the African Narrative Hold? dispels the Western romanization of Greek, English, French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese to the detriment of African ideas and ideals. This text re-centers the African world and dispels the dominating myths and memes of Greek society, which have obliterated all other approaches with the false idea of European superiority in a multiethnic and multicultural world. The Precarious Center strengthens global communication equality and frees the human spirit by challenging the assertive memes of the West to allow spaces for other cultural postures to thrive.

  • The American Demagogue
    Molefi Kete Asante
    Demagogues act as if they have a right to rule not as Plato’s philosopher kings but, in a twisted perversion, because of their supposed higher intelligence. And yet, in the case of Donald Trump, there is little evidence that he has a liberal education or a broad understanding of the contemporary world. Trump neither reads deeply nor is he willing to be taught by those who do re...
