Key quote: “In 1954, there was a book published called Stolen Legacy, by a man named George James.”
The host discusses the implications of George James's book 'Stolen Legacy,' which argues that Western civilization's philosophical foundations are rooted in African culture rather than Greek thought. He critiques this perspective as a form of pseudo history that seeks to reinterpret the past for contemporary social justice purposes.
