About the Author

Dorothy Blake Fardan, Ph.D., is a distinguished scholar and author whose work delves into the historical and socio-political roots of racial dynamics in America. With a doctorate in African American Studies, she brings a rigorous academic lens to her explorations of systemic oppression and cultural origins. Her seminal book, 'Message to the White Man and White Woman in America: Yakub and the Origins of White Supremacy,' challenges conventional narratives by examining the mythological and historical constructs of white supremacy through the lens of Yakub, a figure from Nation of Islam teachings. Fardan's writing bridges scholarly analysis with accessible prose, aiming to foster critical dialogue on race, identity, and power structures that continue to shape contemporary society. Her contributions have sparked important conversations in academic and activist circles alike.
