From Charlie Bins; what do you all think?
I've asked this question before and didn't receive a reply. Why isn't this
org called the 'African and Asian studies association?'
The only place referred to as the 'Land of the Blacks' is 'Kemet- Ancient
Egypt'. (And we all know how the history books try to paint the Ancient
Kemetians as being European in look.)
