LIFTING THE VEIL OVER EUROCENTRISM: The Du Boisian Hermeneutic of Double Consciousness

Lifting the Veil over Eurocentrism: The Du Boisian Hermeneutic of Double Consciousness, informed by W. E. B. Du Bois (The Souls of Black Folk, Darkwater and Dusk of Dawn) is a Du Boisian critical analysis of Eurocentrism and its global and grave influences over the socio-marginalized, namely people of African descent and people of color. As a result, wherever Eurocentrism takes hold, a collective worldview and hermeneutic emerges and makes the Du Boisian hermeneutic of double consciousness a pan African invention. Joseph Evans artfully captures the brilliance and beauty of the African American woman, armored with a deep love for culture, people, and self, as she utilizes the African American hermeneutic process from behind the veil to reject the oppressor and give birth to a womanist worldview that creates a unique triple consciousness, which she effectively and holistically employs to navigate greater liberation for her people, intimacy with her lover, and peace for her soul.
