RBG Afrikan- Centered Cultural Development and Education

This RBG Street Scholar Kemetic Learning Series is based on the lectures, book and a TV series "Free Your Mind, Return to the Source, Afrikan Origins of Civilization by Dr. Asa G. Hilliard III", the Fuller E. Callaway Professor of Urban Education in the department of educational foundation at Georgia State University.
 

Dr. Hilliard, who conducts annual study tours of Egypt, is a former Dean of the college of Education at San Francisco State University. He is a member of the editorial board of the journal of African civilizations, and has been active in most of the key litigation in test bias and validity in standardized testing for African- Americans.

Dr. Hilliard was involved in the case that outlawed IQ testing for Black children in California. He was a member of the national academy of sciences study panel on placing children in special education, and is chief desegregation and curriculum consultant to the Portland-Oregon school system. He is also chief consultant for special education to Detroit public schools, as well as a teacher, psychologist, and historian.

Dr. Hilliard began his career in the Denver Public Schools, teaching psychology, mathematics and American History, earning a BA in Psychology, MA in Counselling, and EdD in Educational Psychology from the University of Denver.

Dr. Hilliard is also the co-developer of a popular educational television series, "Free Your Mind, Return to the Source: African Origins," on which this study is based.

DR. ASA HILLIARD IS AN ANCESTOR!

Greetings Family,
Just received the very bad news from his daughter that my brother, friend, and teacher Dr. Asa Hilliard just passed in Egypt. It seems like complications from malaria. A true giant has fallen and he will be sorely missed.
In love of Africa, Runoko Rashidi
