Jahman Anikulapo reported that the event was awesome at the NYU Law School. It was held on Monday, October 3, 2016.

[size=18pt]Wole Soyinka Main Lecture
“Negritude By Any Other Name”[/size]

As Scholar-in-Residence at the Institute of African American Affairs, New York University, Wole Soyinka will reflect on the themes of the world in Africa and Africa in the world, which would include, but not be limited to, the voices of African public intellectuals, at home and abroad, in assessing such issues as human rights, terrorism, religious absolutism, and the devastating consequences they are bringing on the world today. Also part of the discussion are the ways in which the global African South has been widely ignored by the West in the West’s attempt to resolve such issues as current refugee crises, terrorism and corruption. Topics will explore the roles of public intellectuals in proposing creative and positive approaches to such world problems. From this perspective what roles do African voices and African arts play in the world today? How could African voices and arts help to change the way Africa is perceived in the world and how Africans perceive the injustices of the world visited upon them?

Wole Soyinka will be introduced by Awam Amkpa, NYU Professor, Drama, Tisch School of the Arts.

LOCATION: NYU Law School
Vanderbilt Hall Tishman Auditorium, 1st floor
40 Washington Square South | New York, NY

Negritude:Colonialism dealt a grave blow on the African. Capitalism which is a modus operandi of its political and economic structure enlivens the wound all the more as it is both foreign to Africa as well as synonymous with slavery and exploitation which constitutes the existential predicament of the African.

This man will be there, blowing high high grammar which I doubt if he understand the meaning, while his country burns to ashes.

Keep blowing grammar Wole, you will one day return to see that Negritude has carried away your village.
