Black ‘race’ and the White Supremacy Saga cover

This book examines the conundrum that has haunted the Black and White ancestry for ages on what supremacy actually means. Is it Black or White supremacy? Granted, the term White supremacy has occupied the sociopolitical, cultural and economic discourse for ages, but what does that really imply? All other ancestries on planet earth have been coerced to believe that conformity to Euro-American lifestyle is the way to become ‘civilized’ on planet earth. But the term civilization owes its genesis to the African cultural and educational achievements in Egypt. Consequently, Black ancestry, the first human species on planet earth, should lead mankind to cultural and epistemological supremacy but that has always been met with skepticism.This book examines this debate, especially between the Black and White ancestry.

Exceptionally well written, organized and presented by Professor Kehbuma Langmia, "Black 'race' and the White Supremacy Saga" is definitively recommended for personal, professional, community, and college/university library collections and supplemental curriculum studies lists. -- Midwest


“Kehbuma Langmia undertakes a historical intellectual trip that includes understanding the Black race, rendered inferior globally through its enslavement and the centuries-long auctioning of its human and socioeconomic capital. Langmia’s provocative discourse titled Black ‘Race’ and the Supremacy Sagais a must-read in our high-speed world fraught with racial tensions.” —Prof Emmanuel K. Ngwainmbi, UNESCO Fellow, Editor, Dismantling Cultural Borders through Social Media and Digital Communications and Former Chair, Department of Mass Communication, Jackson State University, Mississippi, USA.


“I believe that this book by Langmia represents an accurate response to the irrational, a thrust of exhaustive energy toward the negativity of biological race, and an attempt to bring the reader close to the ship of culture, sailing in the traditional values of the oft-forgotten history of the great African family.” —Molefi Kete Asante, Temple University, USA.


“In this poignant treatise, Kehbuma Langmia investigates the contemporary notion of race and how it continues to shape the social-cultural realities of the African world. Langmia presents new conceptual language to challenge the hegemony of Western epistemology and how such is driven by the power of racial classification that erroneously juxtaposes ‘White’ as superior and ‘Black’ as inferior.” —Taharka Adé, author of W.E.B. Du Bois’ Africa: Scrambling for a New Africa and Assistant Professor, Africana Studies, San Diego State University, USA.
