  Biography

  A multi-disciplinary scholar with strong interests in language and linguistics, history, culture and research methodology, Nehusi’s research interests include Afrika and its diasporas from ancient to modern times, the Caribbean and Guyana.

  . It reads easily with no obscurity of either language or ideas. The text connects the practice of libation throughout the prodigious time/space correlation occupied by the Afrikan experience of life, connects Afrikans to their social history, and so to themselves across generations in different spaces and times.

  He masterfully demonstrates that libation must be understood within the Afrikan worldview and its emphasis on ontological unity and life eternal. It is Afrocentric without being overbearingly so. 2015.
