The other day he posted a quote by Pan-African scholar Dr. Amos Wilson.
For whatever reason, that made me think of You Can't Stop the Prophet, hip hop classic by golden era emcee Jeru The Damaja ("damager" because alternative spelling is a hip hoppers prerogative). You will find both below.
When Africans in the Americas and the world-over choose to critically examine the “received” ideas and biased perceptions of “reality” imposed on them,
and choose to know reality for what it is—to create themselves through gaining a thorough knowledge of self, knowledge of the world, and through studying and acquiring power—they will then have attained the keys to their own liberation
Anyways, if that quote from Dr. Wilson hypes you up, it from his book Blueprint for Black Power: A Moral, Political, and Economic Imperative for the Twenty-First Century.
Samax Amen is a professional Content Developer, Illustrator and Cartoonist.

He even writes and draws his own comics, like Dare: The Adventures of Darius Davidson, Spontaneous, and Manchild when he gets around to it.
