Human-kind begins in Africa, evolving to become anatomically modern humans 300,000 years ago in Africa. Significant out-migrations from Africa began 95,000 years ago into different habitats on earth, leading to the human differentiation that created the "races". In the 1980s, one anthropologist stated "We are all Africans under the skin".

In this 'lost" speech, King follows up his powerful Beyond Vietnam speech with a intellectually moving plea to his nation to embrace peace, both domestically and internationally. Those familiar with King's Nobel Peace Prize Acceptance speech may find themselves moved by the complex interweaving narrative he drew from it and incorporate here - his brilliant use of Greek mythology and metaphor to entice proper "grown up" actions from America, will undoubtedly make this speech one of your favorite.

If you appreciate this speech, please contact the King Center in Atlanta, GA, and ask them to release all of King's speeches for public consumption. Currently there are several dozen audio and video recordings of unknown and known speeches, sermon's and lectures which have not seen the light of day yet.

We live in a period where Western materialism tries to impose a relativism of moral values.

In face of this permanent threat of the destruction of our traditional moral values, it's time for us to demonstrate and affirm the scientific foundation of our traditional ethics.

This demonstration is all more important as amnesia leads many Africans today to see in this ethics only a secular humanistic construction.

The ideas of this video have been inspired by our book titled BUKÔNGO available here:
