To be Afrocentric one has to have a self-conscious awarenes , I think they go hand and hand or
moreso related .
cultural configuration, the Afrocentric idea is distinguished by five characteristics:
(1) an intense interest in psychological location as determined by symbols, motifs, rituals, and signs
(2) a commitment to finding the subject-place of Africans in any social, political, economic, architectural, literary, or religious phenomenon with implications for questions of sex, gender, and class
(3) a defense of African cultural elements as historically valid in the context of art, music, education, science and literature
(4) a celebration of centeredness and agency and a commitment to lexical refinement that eliminates pejoratives about Africans or other people
(5) a powerful imperative from historical sources to revise the collective text of African people.
conscious is to be aware of one's own existence, sensations, thoughts, surroundings that relates to the minds
of africans which i think is both common to one another i think they in the same family but yet not the same but serve as the mission of our beings ....I could be wrong but this what i think and found to be of the two...
GOOD QUESTION sistah !!!
