Diop's medicine caused for him to be denied his Phd a number of times due to the systematic and typical AFRIKAN HISTORY REFUSALS of World-Wide AkkkADEMIA that prevail and KKKontrol institutions of LOWER LEARNING.

Ahem... it's been more or less proven that Africa is the craddle of Humanity (ie. the origin of the genus
Homo) however it has not been
proven as the craddle of civlization, but named as one of the
three possible sites - the Nile Valley, the Fertile Crescent, and the Indus Valley.
While Dr. Diop's work in establishing the conections and interactions between Ancient Egypt and the rest of Africa was groundbreaking, unfortunately the work is now somewhat dated in light of modern scholarship and methods (ie. we have technology for dating and analysis available he didn't) - however he is still a base reference work, just not a primary work any more.
