Comment: On African Philosophy

The first modern Course on African Philosophy was taught in Canada by Marcus Garvey in 1937. In 2001, students of Afican philosophy updated this course by adding a timeline of african philosophy: through antiquity, the classical period, and the contemporary period. Each of these three periods list the philosopher, the school of thought they're associated with, the language that they wrote their original philosophies in,as well as and the philosophical problems of that given era. These results were published in an academic journal called Imhotep Magazine in a special issue entitled 'On African Philosophy", edited by Theophile Obenga. To say the least, African Philosophy is a highly active field of research around the world, older documents are often recovered and new philosophers and ideas are added to the time line.

There's also a book in English: "African Philosophy: The Pharoanic Period. 2800BC-330AD" So for those adept Wikipedians interested in writing an accurate statement on African Philosophy on Wikipedia, let us correspond, as I am a bit new to Wikipedia but I do have access to vital resources on african philosophy, primary and secondary, useful to this project. Otherwise, what is gathered so far on Wikipedia in regards to African Philosophy is a crude attempt at best.~~ Seqoyah bey 10:49, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
