Inhaltsangabe

This text provides teachers with a process for making explicit an African episteme that serves as a foundation for African Diasporan socio-history. Teachers can then conceptualize curriculum and shape instruction that locates people in all cultures as subjects with agency whose actions embody cultural legacy.
