A Guru at 70!
By Toyin Falola
This month, A. B. Assensoh, our mentor and friend, turns 70. PAUP has released the first installment of his memoir, titled A Matter of Sharing.
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=a+matter+of+sharing
This great man was honored at the University of Texas at Austin with the Nelson Mandela Award given to an African who has distinguished him/herself in public leadership positions. The awardee must be known for promotion of freedom for Africans both at the national and international levels. He/she must have shown resilience, courage and determination in the pursuit of African liberation.
Professor A. B. Assensoh’s illustrious career is well documented in his memoir, A Matter of Sharing. Professor Assensoh received his Ph.D. in Comparative History from New York University in 1984. He conducted postdoctoral research in Peace Studies at the University of Bradford, West Yorkshire. His postdoctoral research focused on “Developing societal and specifically American Civil Rights & Liberation Movements,” with an emphasis on issues of leadership. Assensoh is presently serving as a Professor Emeritus in the Department of African-American & African Diaspora Studies at Indiana University as well as a Courtesy Professor Emeritus in the Department of History at the University of Oregon. Previously, he was the Director of Graduate Studies and Admissions for the African-American and African Diaspora Studies at Indiana University.
Prof. Assensoh’s contribution to African and African diaspora studies has been enormous, which is best reflected in his prolific publication record. The scope and scale of his publications can be understood through the wide range of topics that he addresses in his scholarship. His first monograph, Kwame Nkrumah: Six Years in Exile, 1966-1972, published in 1978, is a brilliant reflection of political conditions in western Africa in the late 1960s. His other major publications include: Polygamy in the Ashanti of Ghana: A Histo-Political Overview and An Histo-Political Overview of the Development of Folklore Among the Ashantis of Ghana in West Africa both published in 1984, An Overview of Political Risk Reporting in Africa: The Liberian Example (1985); Africa in Retrospect (1985); Essays on Contemporary International Topics (1986); Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and America's Quest for Racial Integration (1986); Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana: His Formative Years and the Shaping of His Nationalism and Pan-Africanism, 1935- 1948 (1990), African Political Leadership: A Comparative Study of Jomo Kenyatta, Julius K. Nyerere, and Kwame Nkrumah (1998); African Military History and Politics: Coups and Ideological Incursions, 1900-Present (2001); and Malcolm X: A Biography (2013). Prof. Assensoh’s has also published numerous research articles in various distinguished journals such as Journal of Black Studies, African and Asian Studies, The Journal of Politics, African World Journal, and Journal of Third World Studies. Apart from his scholarly contributions he also wrote a play, titled Campus Life, published in 1981, and Black Woman, An African Story, a historical novel, which was published in 1980.
As pointed out in a book in his honor, titled Intellectual Agent, Mediator and Interlocutor: A. B. Assensoh and African Politics in Transition, his scholarship has covered all major areas in African studies: the military, leadership, political heroes, ethnicity, governance, conflicts, arms proliferation, religions, civil wars, boundary disputes, and much more. Without his work, our understanding of African politics would be much diminished. After he retired as a professor, he registered for a degree in Law at the University of Oregon, and completed his LLM in December. In his 70s, as he fuses law with politics, we expect more energies from him to move us forward.
Congratulations, our leader.

Distinguished Black Star Wofa Akwasi : Mazel Tov!
Teaching, whether Buddha, Muhammad or Dr. Henrik Clarke Jesus, is a generous act of sharing isn’t it, even if your book only costs $25.00…
So how does one humbly ensure that one gets an autographed copy of your memoir which I’m sure is going to be beneficial, if not redemptive reading for the many ?
Thanks to you and everybody , I’m now seriously working on my story (fiction). My intention, after such a long silence is that it should not be less than revolutionary. As Colin Wilson opines in the opening of his “Voyage to a Beginning,” about some of us ragamuffins who have not led interesting lives, never met Dr. Nkrumah in person etc., “Besides, the proper place for autobiography is fiction. A friend of mine once asked Ernest Hemingway how he felt about a certain volume on his early life as a reporter in Kansas City. “ Disgusted”, said Hemingway; “ I intended to use all that stuff in my books, and now it’s all wasted.”
I (we, a party of four) had a wonderful, inspiring Wednesday evening with Fiston Mwanza Mujila at the Kulturhuset in Stockholm. He says that he only writes when he is happy - and writes “like a jazz musician” maybe like Fela? Manu Dibango? From the floor I had asked him about the political - he had mentioned the role played by jazz in the liberation of South Africa from the evil clutches of Apartheid – and so I mentioned Franklin Boukaka and more lately Diblo Dibala from Kisangani who later on studied at the University of Mons and is now very political ( he’s my Facebook friend); there was a long queue-up to have Fiston autograph their Swedish translation of his work , so I was the last to meet him and it was all filmed by someone with a camera ( an emotional Negritude display – I’m an emotional person ) as I chatted with him after the show reminding him about jazz vocalisations, phrasing etc. by jazz vocalists , and since he is a poetry enthusiast (writes in French and German, is currently studying Romance languages in Austria) we talked briefly about the greatest Congolese poet Tchicaya U Tam'si – and I recommended that he write some lyrics for e.g. Black Bazaar who are being sponsored by Alain Mabanckou. There was no other person of colour where he held forth that evening, not even one of many friends from the Congo - he says that one possible reason is that the people of the Congo are more interested in music than in literature and this leads to my final sentence here about the book conscious Ghanaians : Dear Wofa : Your memoir , I guess a mini travel dictionary of Pan- Africanism, has to be widely distributed in Sweden too , maybe starting there: Ghana Union Stor-Stockholm Homepage

Subject: Re: A.B. Assensoh at 70
Dear Professor Assensoh,
Happy Birthday and congratulations on your memoir. I will grab a copy.
Many more happy returns.
God's blessings,
R
Assensoh, Akwasi B.
Before I leave home for the airport today, on my way to what Jesse Jackson, Sr. and other African-American kith and kin often called the Motherland -- with unreliable electricity in some places for e-mail communication to be a problem -- please let me quickly thank all of you, who have been very generous with kind words on my "21st" birthday!:-)
I was praying hard to see if God would “forget” that I was chalking 70 in order to record "21 years old" for me on 1st of April, 2016, but SIR Toyin -- who would, in jest, have been described as "Ibadan Rascal" by Baba Ijebu (my legendary Landlord, who often described Nigerian politics as being " gyau-gyau politics") – in his usual candor blared out the truth: "A Guru at 70!" When I saw that headline on USA-AFRICADIALOGUE, I ran to our bathroom mirror to see if I have enough grey hair to be labeled either as a "Guru" or as a "70-year old” person!
Well, I am grateful for the accolades from all well-meaning and equally stellar brothers and sisters! However, I will remember Baba Ijebu's admonition to old men, getting older on their birthday: "Be careful about your bones, they are not getting softer, but don’t you forget to live the Shomolu good life!" I plan to do just that in order not to break my ever-ossifying and withering African bones, as Sir Toyin says, at 70 years old!
SIR Toyin and all of my brothers and sisters, I am eternally grateful. Furthermore, I urge our brothers and sisters to take peeps into A MATTER OF SHARING: MY MEMOIR. In it, I have been what Baba Ijebu would call a “Ghana Rascal”, as a took the
liberty to compare Lady Christie Achebe and Mrs. Coretta Scott King, two indomitable, stellar wives, who have taught women all over Africa and beyond how to embrace adversity with a smile as well as transparent dignity (my comparative biography of both great
women is still in the works, from which I culled the published information). Also, I have, civilly, re-visited aspects of the never-ending debate on "Africa's 1st Nobel Literature Laureate". My second book (co-authored),
which was also published last week (in April 2016) is MALCOLM X AND AFRICA, a sequel to MALCOLM X: A BIOGRAPHY.
Again, many thanks to Sir Toyin and Dr. Chief Lady Bisi Falola aas well as Everyone for the support and kind words, or -- as Baba Ijebu would say, in delight in his Ijebu Yoruba: E Se Pupo!
A.B. Assensoh.
