The new book
The Construction of Black Civilization, Volume I
The Classical Origins of Black Power, Pan-Afrikanism and the Dikènga Theory of Self-Identification as Kmt(yw) “Black People”
The book reconstructs the classical foundations of Black Power from the historical experience and intellectual world of Kmt(yw) “Black People.” Drawing together ancient sources, historical evidence and the Dikènga Theory, it examines how Black people defined themselves, organized internally, built alliances with other Black peoples and resisted domination.
Volume I establishes the intellectual, cultural and civilizational grounding for Abibitumi as an ancient, continuous and living framework for Abibifahodie.

A descriptive (only) of the race of original, indigenous, melanated Black Afrikans on their continent, in the Diaspora, and their direct descendants, which identifies and describes their immeasurable high achievements in every aspect of human endeavor — medicine, science, literature, mathematics, family development, government, culture, education, spiritual development — that were beyond the scope, breadth and depth of the concept of magnificent.
