Who Is Really An Academician? by redsun(m): 6:02pm On Jun 12, 2009
An academician is someone that can experiment,theorize,formularize,practicalize and make manifest

Institutionalize education like we have in africa is brain washing and retarding,we study and subject ourselves to the works and  theories of fallable mortals as if they are infallables,unquestionable authorities,like religion and thereby depriving us the abilities to think for ourselves and little surprise afrcan academicians are docile and unproductive.

You really think am not up to it? Bwhaahahahahah lol.  grin

Yeah, it is my fault people are dying back home. It is my fault you **think am an expert too**. It is my fault as well that you clearly cannot think enough. Oh it is also my fault that you post meaningless jargon so as to come across as intelligent right? Awwwh okay. I apologise. Can we be friends now? grin

PS
I am surprised you didn't blame the white man though.

I agree.

Some Africans REFUSE to retrain their brain.

and, some of them live to REPEAT what others have told them.

that's just stupid.

@ Topic
While I don't totally disagree with the post, It is important you know that everything you presently know was taught to you by someone.
Whats important is how you advance the information you are given.
I do think that the kind of education we have in Africa doesn't enhance learning.
I also think our academicians are one of those responsible for our problems as they've failed to use their knowledge to create opportunities!

@redsun,

What do you mean by "afrcan academicians"? Please choose one:

A. All academicians (of African heritage) anywhere on the planet?
B. All academicians (regardless of nationality/ethnic heritage) in Africa?
C. All academicians (of African heritage) in Africa?

If none of the choices above serves your definition, please define in clear terms what you mean by "african academicians".

Thank you.

All Pan-African academicians ie,those that believe in africa as a heritage and yet can put uip with all the gory and backwardness of africa without exercising his or her or her academic power for pioneering a change and making a difference but rather with flimsy excuses,will  like be tutored and sheltered under the umbrella of whiteman, who with his academic and inquisitive mind,pioneered his own world that we are all blindly following today.

There are parallel ways to knowledge,but with the same fundamental principle and that fundamental principle is what is missing in africa,we are cutting the weeds from the middle instead of the roots.We are not initiating.
