Price: 100.00 USD / Size: 8” X 11” Name: An Afro Prodigy j.h. Clarke Completion: 12-31-18 Meaning: A warrior scholar who saved the consciousness of many Africans John Henrik Clarke, was an black historian, professor, and a pioneer in the creation of Pan-African and Africana studies, and professional institutions in academia starting in the late 1960s. Born in Union Springs Alabama on 1-1-1915, he has provided much needed information that rediscovered Africans role in world history, or rather Africa’s role IS world history. Of all Black historians, he is my favorite & his holiday is my favorite. I’m celebrating his holiday by uploading a picture of him with one of his most famous quotes from one of his greatest “debates”. He says, “I only debate my Equals. All others I teach.” Implying that the individuals he was debating during the 1-3 hour session were not as educated, or were indoctrinated with Eurocentric lies. I love Dr. Clarke, & he will always have a respected place in my heart. There is soo much of my history I wouldn’t know if it wasn’t for this great man. #freedom_arts #blackleaders #drclarke #johnhendrickclarke #blackhistory #blackhistorymonth #birthday #anniversary #genius #blackmen #strongblackmen #hero #devianart #deviantart #drawing #zelsart (at Union Springs, Alabama) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsG56dig2QN/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=dlaa7hsqk5kd
