THE MYTH OF THE BIG SIX AND THE REAL FOUNDER’S DAY

The Big Six

Fellow Comrades:
I am very happy to see as Chairwoman for today’s celebration, my senior academic, Professor Akua Britwum. She and I conducted a joint research project some 20 years ago. I have admired her beautiful mind and her work ethic since then.
I am also glad to share the podium today with Kwesi Pratt Junior, a Comrade who has sacrificed the better part of his life in search of social justice and who is not afraid to speak up when he must, a quality that is getting consistently diminished in our Republic, as the days go by.

SUMMARY OF MY LECTURE TODAY
I would like to communicate just three things in my lecture today.
First, the topic you have asked me to speak on is self-answered; the answers are within the question, a clear indication that you expect me to speak about something else.
Second, the reason why we are quarrelling today about the myth of the Big Six and the Real Founder of the Nation is that, as comrades, we have refused to learn from our leader, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, who did not only do, but scripted what he did, for posterity.

The third and last point I would like to make today is on the Apartheid of
Knowledge Production and Epistemic Violence in the world we live in today, and
what comrades may do about it.
