The End of Objectification of the African Species of Modern Man

The End of Objectification of the African Species of Modern Man is a rigorous examination of the de jure racial, linguistic, and social policies that have shaped - and too often diminished - the identity of African and African American people across history.

Unflinching in its historical scope, this book traces how legal language, inherited terminology, and manufactured social archetypes became instruments of psychological warfare - from school curriculum to holidays to the words used for skin color itself - and argues for a permanent, deliberate reclamation of identity, name, and record.

Inside: the language of ownership, the manufacturing of violence and archetypes, and a full accounting of the policies that shaped color, curriculum, and leisure into tools of control - and what it takes to end them for good.
