The Shrine of the Black Madonna and the Afrocentric Personality (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781665508629)

The Shrine of the Black Madonna produces members with an Afrocentric personality. The transformation of members occurs during the KUA group sessions. The use of Afrcocentric symbols and activities reinforce the members' new world view. The researcher recommends that others study other organizations that create an African centered program such as the Nation of Islam, the US Organization, and the Hebrew Israelites. There are similarities in their programs. The emphasis on African culture is the key to the development of a Pan- African consciousness in Africa and African people in the Diaspora. There should be a concerted effort by Africans to understand and use the principles and lessons of the indigenous African culture on the continent of Africa. The ideology of Pan-Africanism should proceed from reclamation of African history and culture. Our ideology should include extensive research of Kemet. Kemet is our classical civilization and it still lives in the many villages and societies of present day Africa.
