  • Deconstructing Pseudo-Scientific Anthropology: Anténor Firmin and the Reconceptualization of African Humanity
    Deconstructing Pseudo-Scientific Anthropology: Anténor Firmin and the Reconceptualization of African Humanity by Gershom Williams bennuinstitute@yahoo Adjunct Professor of African-American History and African-American Studies, Mesa Community College, Mesa, Arizona; Co-founder, The Bennu Institute of Arizona “The science of inequality is emphatically a science of White people. It is they who have invented it, and set it going, who have maintained, cherished and propagated it, thanks to their observations and their deductions.” –Jean Finot-Race Prejudice (1907) “A preponderance of (fossil) and genetic evidence has revealed, virtually beyond a doubt, that the same Europeans who created the idea of race and White supremacy are the genetic progeny of the very Africans they devalued.” – Salim Muwakkil – Chicago Tribune Abstract Euro-American ideas and assumptions regarding African innate inferiority and racial inequality are central to the pseudo-scientific ‘race myth’ of White supremacy. In their search to find an expedient explanation, rationalization and justification for the horrific holocaust of enslavement, Europeans and later White Americans developed the international thesis and concept of African biological and intellectual inferiority. In this exploratory essay, I am endeavoring to present a critical review of the anti-racist, vindicationist tradition of African American and Haitian intellectuals who challenged, rejected and refuted the ‘scientific racism’ of Euro-American ethnologists, Egyptologists, anthropologists, historians, philosophers, and physicians. In another essay that we discuss in the contents of this manuscript, anti-racist theorists Stepan and Gilman argue that those stigmatized and stereotyped by the ideology of ‘scientific racism’ published prolific counter narratives that remain obscured and unrecognized by the historians of mainstream science.

  • Awakening Sacred Memories: a Resource Guide for Healing, Restoration and Justice
    Awakening Sacred Memories: A Resource Guide for Healing, Restoration and Justice Elaine C. Mosley © 2017 Samuel DeWitt Proctor Conference, Inc. Elaine C. Mosley, Ed.D., Educational Consultant and Christian Education Lay Leader, St. John A.M.E. Church, Aurora, IL; with appreciation for editing support from Dr. Charlotte Blackman, Marilyn Birden and Dr. Iva E. Carruthers Introduction “We begin with ourselves. Each of us must answer the question: What will we do with the fullness and incompleteness of who we are as we stare down the interior material life of the cultural production of evil?” Emilie M. Townes Beloved, I am pleased to share this educational resource which supports the sacred memory agenda of the Samuel DeWitt Proctor Conference (SDPC). Our sacred memory agenda is an acknowledgement that we live in a world in which narratives and stories, images and social media are all a part of the cultural production of evil; they can likewise be part of the cultural production of good. Our sacred memory agenda is an affi rmation that the responsibility and charge to keep our true narrative alive is ultimately ours. Our sacred memory agenda can serve to be a force for global good. Th e United Nations (UN) declared 2015 – 2024, the International Decade of People of African Descent and the Permanent Memorial to Honor the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade at the United Nations, entitled ‘Th e Ark of Return,’ has been established at its New York headquarters. As a UN, non-governmental organization (NGO), SDPC’s sacred memory agenda will contribute to the international collective impact of documentation, remembrance and celebration initiatives being undertaken by people of African descent throughout the world, under the rubric of the UN’s declaration.
