The Magna Carta is often heralded as the foundation of modern democracy, embodying principles that would eventually shape notions of constitutional law and individual liberties in Western societies.
In contrast, the Mande Charter, or the Kouroukan Fouga, crafted in the expansive plains of the Mali Empire under the leadership of Sundiata Keita, also in the early 13th century, serves as a testament to a different kind of legislative history.

Resisting the tide of repression that threatens the teaching of Black history, we should look to that past to understand the ongoing processes that have shaped our world. Our current predicament, marked by extreme inequalities, everyday violence, militarism, and political strife derives in part from the history of colonial conquest, slavery, and imperial warfare. Our struggles for freedom and dignity emerge from that history, too. By understanding it, we might discern the scope, force, direction, and likelihood of the changes ahead—and be guided by the example and the wisdom of our ancestors. Audience Q&A and a reception will follow.
