Worrill’s World: Remembering Dr. Clarke as a Source of Wisdom

2. Now, as a result of the Europeans’ rise to power, a revolution began in the world, one we must now revolt against. To revolt against it, we must understand how it began. How then did we lose our Africanness? What will we have to do to regain it? How did we lose the concept of nationness and develop a concept of dependency?

The above points of wisdom I extracted from this most profound book by Dr. Clarke are just a few examples, among many, of lessons he presents to us through his many years of struggle.

There have been few African American men or women since our forced capture and introduction into the western hemisphere, who have dedicated their entire lives to study, research, writing, and teaching about the history of the world. In reading this book, the dedication and insights of Dr. John Henrik Clarke come through loud and clear.
