Afrocentric

Studies centered on African or African derived cultures and they're contributions to modern society. Seriously that's it, the rest of you are either, a. pretty ignorant. b. racist, c. euro-centrists, or d. desperately in need of a college level history course.

The professor introduced his Afrocentric theory that states that certain words used in today's vernacular such as okay, shout, banjo, gumbo, and guy are Africanisms, or African cultural survivals in modern society.

afrocentric

the concept that white Europeans would be living in caves, grunting to communicate and eating raw meat unless black Africans taught them a better way. The Greeks, Persians, Babylonians had no culture until they learned it from Africans. Many historical characters Europeans think were white were really black. Until invaded by Europeans or Arabs, all Africans were black, including the Egyptians and Carthaginians.

The Afrocentric culture taught the Europeans everything.

Americocentric

Adj.: A well-documented tendency of internet memes and surveys to ask questions about stuff that has absolutely no relevance to people outside the US.

What an effing Americocentric question! Now, excuse me while I go drink some wine with a delicious goat's cheese and maybe some force-fattened goose liver!
