I shouldn't get into this, but it is worth pointing out that Sheila Walker is
an Afrocentrist, with all that implies; i.e., at least at this stage of
things, a field of study many of the claims of which are grossly ahistorical
and patently preposterous.
She is apparently not terribly consistent either. In addition to her
comments on slavery as noted by Millison, she also has said, "We need to stop
talking about slaves. I don't believe in slaves." And, "The wealth of the
Americas and the western world-all the Peri-Atlantic world, was created by
Africans."
