In the introduction to John Jackson’s Introduction to African Civilization,Dr. Clarke wrote:

There is an urgent need to discard the term ‘Negro Africa’ and the word ‘Negro’ and all that it implies. This word grew out of the European slavery and colonial systems and it fails to relate the people of African descent to land, history and culture. There is no ‘Negroland.’ When one hears the word ‘France’ or ‘French,’ it is easy to visualize the land, history and culture of the people. The same thing is true of the words ‘English’ or ‘Englishman.’ When one hears or reads the word ‘Negro,’ the only vision that comes to mind relates to a condition.
