Talk:Association for the Study of Classical African Civilizations

Contested deletion
This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... (this organization is of immense importance to the rediscovery and translation of the African past and the world's past. The organization has been in existence AND thriving for over 31 years and is the brainchild and academic/social/cultural home of Dr. John Henrik Clarke, Dr. Asa Grant Hilliard  III, Dr. Leonard Jefferies, Dr. Maulana Karenga (creator of Kwanzaa), and Dr. Jacob Carruthers.  To delete, omit, or dismiss this critical organization would be a huge disservice to Africans, African-Americans and the world.  During this Black History Month, it is only right to FINALLY add this organization on Wikipedia.  In due time, it will be readily evident that this is of utmost importance.  I trust that the right thing will be done and this will not be deleted.  I am positive that the information on this organization will be added to greatly. If the validity and importance is at all in question at this point, feel free to join the 32nd Annual INTERNATIONAL Conference in Seattle, WA in March, 2015. I can assure you that there are thousands of organizations, groups, clubs, etc. on Wikipedia that are ephemeral, insignificant, inconsequential, frivolous and any other terms that necessitate deletion, far more and far beyond ASCAC. Ignorance of this important organization is NOT a reason to banish it to the waste bin of intellectual negation.) --108.28.194.140 (talk) 16:17, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
