[UPDATED 08.26.07]
The transformation of the physical back to the non-physical (some call it 'death) happenz to us all. That is Y it is important to do your life's work while you're here.

We at DGT express our condolences to the Hilliard family for the recent passing of Asa Hilliard. Although we have had reported and undisclosed conversationz with Asa and an unmentioned family member of the yearz regarding his involvement in the Boule' (aka Sigma Pi Phi), we recognize that Hilliard made great contributionz to Ourstory and for that, we are grateful.

I must point out, the unfortunate side of Asa's admitted membership to the Boule', has left us without answerz he could've revealed from had he been willing to tell us (or anyone for that matter) more about the Boule' and Y an Afrikan-centered historian such as he would remain a member of a well-known black version of the racist Skull&Bones secret society.

Because he left this earth revealing no secrets of the Boule', he made the conscious as well as subconscious decision to honor the deedz of Carter G. Woodson and WEB DuBois rather than the self-sacrificial choice of George GM. James, who revealed the history of masonry, greece and its role in altering Afrikan history to seem of european ancestry, in his book, Stolen Legacy, KNOWIN' it would cost his life. So for that, we are saddened as well disappointed the Afrikan Nation will have to wait a lil' longer until a 'spook' in the Boule' decides to come forward.

A NOT TOO POPULAR DISCUSSION ABOUT AGENTS IN DA HOOD
» Case #009: Asa Hilliard is not a sellout! Or is he?
[This is an excerpt of an email sent to DGT responding to a piece I wrote piece: ‘Guilty By Association: Asa Hilliard']

What is your basis for carrying this completely wrong message about one of our greatest scholar warriors besides Steve Cokely tarring him with the Boule’ brush? I happen to know Baba Asa personally and can tell you categorically he is not a sellout. Rather, he has devoted his adult life to advocating Africentric education as the ONLY solution to educatin’ Afrikan youth. In doing so, he has received death threats and has been attacked from ALL sides.

Have your read ANY of his many books on the subject. Posing as an Africentric scholar? Check it. He is a founding member of ASCAC. On July 23, 2000, Dr. Asa Hilliard and his wife were enstooled as development chiefs at Mankranso Village in the Ashanti Region of Ghana. This honor being bestowed on him because of his HARD WORK in getting money and educational materials to the people. He co-developed the ever popular educational television series “Free Your Mind, Return to the Source: African Origins”. He proposed and largely wrote the Afrikan American Baseline essays for the Portland public school system in the early '80s. He worked in conjunction with the National Black United Front on the this project. Their work was so impressive that it was roundly attacked from all sides as pseudoscience. Yet, these same essays served as one of the fundamental documents used by the Africentric movement.

He, along with Dr. Ben, Dr. John H. Clarke and others, were attacked by Gates on behalf of certain Jews. Remember the full page article Gates took out in the the New York times in the 90's attacking the Africentric movement? Remember that it overlaid a star of david? Baba Asa's wife is the current mayor of East Point, GA. An attempt was made at one time to attack his wife by attacking him as a crackpot and antiwhite.

Baba Asa makes frequent trips to Afrika, taking many along on tours to many places that tourists NEVER go. For example, he took a group to visit the Dogon and was able to get info that no one else was able to get because of the relationships he has established there. AND, he made sure his informants were WELL PAID as recommended by Ayi Kwei Armah.

This is a bunch of bullshit!! If it's not, ya'll will have to come with something stronger than merely attacking him for being in the Boule. Do your research; don't just accept something blindly from Cokely. But then, I can remember chastising you several years ago for saying that the term "dreadlocks" was created by whites or YT as you say which is bullshit. It seems you are still a mile wide and an inch deep. Ya'll are wrong about Bill Cosby too.

» M'BWEBE's RESPONSE:
I know enuff about Asa and the Boule' to know that although he as done great works, it still does not exonerate his membership to an organization that's a black version of Skull & Bones. On the contrary, do YOUR research. Look into the background of the Boule', and no you don't have to take Steve Cokely's work for it, nor mine, just look at the affiliationz. By the way, your ignorance makes you THINK my information is/was from Cokely. I don't just regurgitate info, I'm not the one-dimensional researcher as you may be...

Yes, I've read Hilliard's scholastic works, even sat front row in several of his lectures. Him being in the Boule' is enuff ammo to go after him. Have you read the Boule's history book (a book he himself must read thoroughly each May)? But you can believe what you want, I KNOW HE'S A SELLOUT! I had an encounter with him publicly about his membership in the Boule' in 2000, and he tried to act like he didn't know nothin' about it. His response was that they were just a social organzation who threw parties and picnics. Ask your boy why he would lie like that?

When you know the story of the Boule', it don't matter what "deedz" one has done. The work of Carter G. Woodson, Alain Locke, WEB DuBois and even Bill Cosby... ALL THEM CAT'S should be dissed because it just does not make sense to be "PanAfrikan" or for the advancement of the legacy of our people, then in the same breath, be in association with the very conspiratorz who’ve harnessed the strength of our history. Asa is a sellout not for the volumes of work and research he’s done about our legacy, but for his continued refusal to (1)bellittle his role in the Boule’ and (2)continue the sacred seal of secrets. Since he’s your boy, Y not ask him to come clean about his entire involvement in the Boule’? Ask him to share with everyone and prove Steve Cokely, Ashra Kwesi, myself and all otherz that believe the Boule’ to be co-conspiratorz to global white supremacy, wrong? Doing this only clearz the Boule’s overall perception by the PanAfrikan community. And if this community is as important as he claimz, he would want to tell us of these “secrets” and not follow the path of fellow Boule’ concealerz, WEB DuBois and Carter G. Woodson.

As far as the dreadlock thing, you have your view as do mine. If you don't like the info we at DGT put out, exercise your right to not visit my site, PLAIN AND SIMPLE! This is YOUR choice; but I do welcome critiques, and as I've said, you can believe what you want to. You can do what you will, just as we at DGT will continue to lift the skirt of ANY and ALL perpetrator who defile the Red, Black & the Green!
