Afrocentrism (which I assume is the same thing you are referencing with "Afrikan Centered") doesn't preclude membership in fraternities and sororities for many Afrocentric people. They aren't a monolithic group.

Dr. Marimba Ani is the first the publish this idea of "Afrikan Centeredness". Then Dr. Na'im Akbar published in through out his works. The ASCAC often uses it for their research studies from Dr. Cheikh Ante Diop, Dr. Ivan Van Sertima and Dr. John Henrik Clarke.

Afrocentrism is thought to be a fabrication, commercialized to sell the angry black man or woman. It centralizes superiority of one group versus another, meaning it subjugates, which is contrary to what most of these authors support, think and believe. It is also contrary to our Ancestors and what they died for during the Maafa, which was recently honored during Nakambuka Day.

Afrikan Centered was a called upon from the Watoto and Asili, the Utaamawaazo, a definition of a new epistemology. It requires study and research to apply tantric principles and transcend with the Buddha, incorporate humility from transgressions and provide mitzpah. It allows all to to investigate and lead to Enlightenment, our Houses and Peace...
