Speaking on Maat, Liberation, and Power at ASCAC 2014

In this presentation Dr. Kamau Rashid discusses the ancient Kemetic (Egyptian) paradigm of order, truth, and justice--Maat and its capacity to inform our continuing efforts to achieve African self-determination in the world today. I also situate isft (the Kemetic paradigm of disorder) as an apt metaphor for the contemporary malaise of Africans in the United States. This lecture occurred at the 2014 conference of the association for the Study of Classical African Civilizations at Essex College in Newark, NJ.
