Afrocentricity and African spirituality

Abstract

In this article, the author seeks to argue in support of the African ontological view as a valid way to view the world. Indeed, the argument in this work is that a central role of Afrocentric philosophy ought to be the reestablishment of the process by which Africans arrive at spirituality. Demonstrating that Christianity has often been the culprit behind White supremacy, the author suggests that it has gone hand-in-hand with the desacralization of African culture. © 2002 Sage Publications.
