the afrocentric paradigm  

Definition

  • The Afrocentric Paradigm (2003), edited by Ama Mazama, a Temple University professor of African American Studies, has become the most significant text in Afrocentric discourse since the publication of Molefi Kete Asante's second edition of The Afrocentric Idea (1998). Indeed, The Afrocentric Paradigm has quickly become the most definitive theoretical collection in the brief history of Afrocentric research or Afrocentricity.
