(3) A further result has been (a) the false worship of Greek intellect and (b) the activities of
Missionary enterprise through which the culture of Black people is caricatured both in literature
and in exhibitions.

(4) A further result has been (a) the general feeling among Black people throughout the world
that they are in great need of freedom from their social plight, and (b) The offer by "Stolen
Legacy" of a "New Philosophy of African Redemption" in order to meet this universal need of
"Social Reformation".

(5) The nature and methods of this New Philosophy and Social Reformation

(a) The New Philosophy of African Redemption is simply the proposition that the "Greeks were
not the authors of Greek philosophy: but the people of North Africa, the Egyptians". This must
be preached and circulated for centuries to come.

(b) The effects of this New Philosophy should be as follows

(1) To change the mentality both of White and Black people and their attitude towards each other
and bring about a Social Reformation.

(2) To stimulate the Black people to abandon their false worship of Greek intellect, and to reject
the caricature of their culture by Missionary enterprise and to demand a change in Missionary
policy.
