Review Quotes: "An Afrocentric Manifesto is the most comprehensive response to those critics that charge Afrocentricity is a closed system. Building on the work of Cruse, Nkrumah and Karenga, Asante defines Afrocentricity as a paradigmatic intellectual perspective linking research to ethical praxis."
Charles P. Henry, University of California, Berkeley
"In An Afrocentric Manifesto, Molefi Kete Asante has accomplished something quite extraordinary in addressing a wide range of issues shaping current discourse on Afrocentricity and related themes."
