Abstract

What can African sources teach philosophers and related thinkers around the world? In some real ways, both Western philosophers and non-Western advocates of decolonization have failed to appreciate that there is probably a lot to learn from Africa. In my contribution, I explain why neither camp has given African intellectual sources their due and sketch what that would plausibly involve.
