Dr. Carr vs Dr G

Last Tuesday, I listened to a lecture that was much different than the one I had listened to the previous weeks. Although both lecutres seemed to talk about connecting with our African identity, Dr. G's lecture was much more different than Dr. Carr's. To begin with, Dr. Carr's speech seemed to relate more to the youth than Dr. G's. Dr. G talked a lot about the transformation of knowledge and investigating scholars, while Dr. Carr talked more about how we should connect with our identity despite the fact that we were born and raised in American, a subject that many of the youth can relate to. Dr. G touched on many points such as ljoba( which means the paying of respect), human condition, and knowledge. He said that with the human conditions, we need to study human problems in order to solve human problems. With saying that, he connected it to knowledge and how we can advance it by pushing forward to find the answers.
