Good morning fellow Africans and friends of Africa.
And thanks so much, Aggo, for making this information
available. God bless.
I will encourage all interested to take the time and
read Gates' response. Truly, this goes without saying
that there are always, and I mean, always two sides to
any story. This is the bedrock of many truths and trusts
to what you hear. It also goes with a heavier weight that
you should be careful not to get caught in hasty conclusions
that spring from hasty judgments without facts. Usually we
find ourselves in this situation when we use biased feelings
instead of facts. In other words, while being sensitive to
the achievements, skills and contributions of others, always
base your critical analysis on substantial facts from the 'WHY'
question(s). Facts and not feelings, like in many situations,
have merit here. That's one way to appreciate others.
Please, please read Gates' WHY's to lot of the areas of the critiques
we saw soon after the film series on his 'Wonders of the African World'
was presented by PBS in October 1999. It may help you to understand
why Gates did what he did in his work.
On a side note, africana.com contains a wide range of interesting
information. Enjoy.
Cheers and God bless!
Richard Yarl

available at the web-site URL address shown below. It is a long one, but
very much worth it to read. Very interesting indeed, check it out.
Cheers.
