In celebration of the 25th anniversary of the annual Cheikh Anta Diop International Conference and the first Ph.D. program in the field, the MKA Institute and DISA invite scholars, educators, artists, and community activists to engage this landmark conference and embrace the opportunity to critically examine and reflect on the evolution of Africana Studies, Afrocentricity, and Diopian thought, and their impact in fostering one of the most influential intellectual, social, and cultural movements of the era.
