Ron Walters has had a most unusual depth and breadth of experience with and exposure to the richness, complexity, and significance of the idea of Africa among her peoples throughout the world, as well as her adversaries. In this book he reveals and extols the continuing vitality the African spirit has in influencing the culture, politics, and sense of destiny and identity of nearly a sixth of the world's people. No one can understand our times without grasping this reality.

– Willard R. Johnson, Professor Emeritus of Political Science, MIT
