It maintains that who people are 'ontically' speaking, and the color that has been used to describe them aren't one and the same. In other words, Blackness in itself isn't Africanness; and Whiteness isn't Europeanness.\u003cp\u003eSo how a group of people is racially described should be taken with moral priority because descriptions affect the social consciousness, racial reflexivity, and moral standing of such a group of people in inter-racial and inter-cultural interactions and discourses. So any given racial description should be judged against a moral gauge or meter to ascertain its societal value. So far, how the African Personhood is described fails all the moral requirements of a decent and civil regard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis new ontological discourse is meant to socio-intellectually humble European socio-intellectual hegemony, and make the African Personhood worth positive pedagogy and hermeneutic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Nile Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50091035984112,"sku":"9780991678945","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780991678945","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
