Excerpt from the presentation of Molefi Kete Asante, Professor of Africology at Temple University in the USA, during Session Nine at the Multiversity International Conference on Decolonising Our Universities held in Penang, Malaysia, 27-29 June 2011. He outlined 'The Philosophical Bases of an African University,' pointing out that in the imposition of the Eurocentric worldview in higher education 'there was a Greek at every corner' but that the Greeks themselves 'were but children to Africa, and to India and to China.'
