Per Âa Asa Hilliard: The Great House of Black Light for Educational Excellence

^* To whom correspondence should be addressed. E-mail: drnobles{at}iasbflc.org.

	Abstract

This interpretive review draws on a number of Asa G. Hilliard’s Kemetic (ancient Egyptian) writings to examine his conception of educational excellence in ancient Kemet and for African American education today. The review offers an interpretation of Hilliard’s lifelong quest for excellence in education, which is especially revealed in his analysis of the educational implications of Black rulership of Egypt’s 18th Dynasty, in the chapter entitled "Waset: The Eye of Ra and the Abode of Maat—The Pinnacle of Black Leadership in the Ancient World."
