Toward Singularity The Quiescent/Self-Liberative Contradiction as the African Response to European Global Domination

Toward Singularity is a book of philosophic essays that engage the Quiescent/Self-Liberative Contradiction--a reformulation of Du Boisian "double consciousness"--as the authentic African response to European global domination. It addresses the encounter of the Contradiction with the following: racism and the myth of European racial superiority; European Christian religion; African mis-education; the question of violence; African American movements in Philadelphia and the intersection with Asian American history; the African Public Sphere; and African and African American philosophy. "A remarkable and brilliant response to the contemporary dilemmas of being African in a Eurocentric hegemonic world. Churchville, always the teacher, has taught us the most authentic way to respond to the contradictions of place and time. Readers of this book will be blessed with knowledge and wisdom." Molefi Kete Asante, Professor and Chair Department of African American Studies Temple University "A book of provocative essays by a veteran black nationalist, intellectual and activist that will change the way you look at religion, liberation and love." Diane D. Turner, Curator Charles L. Blockson Afro-American Collection "Churchville makes a strong case for why Revolutionary Christianity continues to speak directly to the spirit of African Americans and other oppressed people and is an appropriate response to European global domination." Rev. Dr. Renee McKenzie-Hayward Church of the Advocate
