I must have missed that. I probably miss a lot in only jumping in every few
days.

Did MalignD malign  AAS for the same reason and as blanketly as he maligned
Ac?  There is plenty one can generally say about just about any special
studies department. Much hot air is generated.

Afrocentrism is truly bad business and doomed to fail as any kind of help
to African Americans. The very word, as Greg points out, pretty well says
it all.

I suppose only the enemies of Afrocentrism call it that but don't really
know for sure. No one would call themselves Eurocentric. The Nazis might
have had some roughly analogous thoughts but would have drawn lines at the
southern and eastern borders.
