In his article for this Unit, Dr.Karengastates the following:
"To simply use African culture as a reference is to name things considered important, but never to use it to answer questions, solve problems, or extract and shape paradigms of excellence and possibility in thought and practice. To dialog with African culture, then, is to constantly engage its texts, i.e., its oral, written, and living-practice texts, its paradigms, its worldview and values, its understanding of itself and the world, in an ongoing search for ever better answers to the fundamental questions and challenges of our time."
According to his statement, list two specific cultural artifactsand discuss ways that we might "dialog" with those examples of African culture rather than simply use them as a "reference" point. Be as specific as possible.
